the Quiet | A Tyler Joseph Fanfiction
The tour was supposed to be noise-screaming crowds, humming lights, chaos that left no room for feeling. She knew how to handle that. She'd built her life on moving fast, staying useful, never getting too close. But he was different. The frontman with heavy eyes and stained hands. The one who disappeared behind stage doors only to sing like he was bleeding. He didn't talk much. Didn't need to. His presence was gravity. And without meaning to, she fell into orbit. Behind curtains and closed doors, under low lights and high tension, something raw begins to bloom. A connection. A craving. A slow, inevitable unraveling. But the road doesn't stop moving. And neither does the weight he carries. A slow-burn, soul-aching, backstage romance about finding stillness in someone else's storm. For fans of quiet obsession, late-night vulnerability, and love that feels like a secret whispered in the dark. CW: This story explores mental health, anxiety, depression, and emotional trauma. It includes explicit content (smut), emotionally intense themes, and is intended for mature readers. Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction. It is inspired by a fictional version of Twenty One Pilots frontman Tyler Joseph.

Searching for Purpose (Twenty One Pilots)
Tyler was sad. He was hurt, confused, angry, and scared, too, but most of all, he was sad.

Blurryface
(I apologize if the layout doesn't always look the same, I copy it from my docs and sometimes it doesn't paste the same) After being discharged from a mental institution for reasons no one in town fully understands, Tyler Joseph returns to a world that feels colder, smaller, and wired against him. Rumors follow him like shadows-twisted, violent stories whispered behind closed doors. Everyone stares. No one asks. His mind, loud with ADHD and unprocessed rage, simmers under a fragile surface. Josh Dun comes from a weathy family with a perfect image to uphold. He is planning the ultimate party-an act of rebellion against his pristine family and everything he's expected to be. He has no idea Tyler exists, but when their worlds collide in a night soaked in chaos, blood, and broken glass, something unhinged ignites between them. Tyler doesn't want to be the monster they all believe he is. But when the noise becomes too much and the crowd turns against him, he breaks-and Josh finds himself captivated, not repulsed, by the destruction he witnesses.
