"Tyler... Josh isn't real. Remember?"
"Josh... Tyler isn't real. Remember?"
_____
Two boys with schizophrenia. One is Tyler with an imaginary friend in his head. His imaginary friend is Josh. Unfortunately, this friend is a terrible influence. Josh tempts Tyler with thoughts of suicide and depression. Mostly death inspires him, just like a dog inspires a rabbit.
The second boy is Josh with an imaginary friend in his head, too. His imaginary friend is Tyler. This friend sings to him. The songs aren't happy, jolly, love songs played on the radio. These songs are about loneliness, depression, suicide. Anything involved with sadness is sung to Josh by Tyler. This isn't helping him.
The second voice in each of their heads is Blurryface. Many see him as a bad guy, but for them, he helps. Blurryface made Josh and Tyler go to a mental disorder group. They meet at some point, but that's only with the help of the group leader, Brendon Urie.

I Fancy The Singer (Book 1 // Joshler)
One band: twenty one pilots, two musicians: a drummer and a singer, one bond: a friendship, one accident: and so it all began. Tyler and Josh are best friends. They're in a band together, performing is in their blood. That all ends way too soon when Tyler has an accident and gets amnesia; barely remembering his own name, he forgets everyone, including his lifetime best friend: Josh. Despite not being remembered, Josh takes care of him and assures his well being all throughout his recovery while trying to bring his memories back. He walks around the house blasting twenty one pilots and singing along while casually putting on their favourite tv series and/or anything that may trigger his memories. Josh's ultimate goal is to gain his friendship back with Tyler, even if that means jeopardizing everything, including their music career. This journey brings him something he never expected, except only in his wildest dreams. |-/ [Cover Credit: inl0veanddeath on deviantart.com]Complete

Let's Recelebrate - Book 1 (a Joshler story) (Celebrate ALTERNATE version)
Joshua Dun struggled with mental health. When his new friend Jenna introduced him to a certain artist that wrote songs about depression and suicidal thoughts, Josh knew he'd found the most important music he'd ever find. Tyler Joseph was an up-and-coming artist that played medium sized hometown shows, but only small shows outside of his home state, 'cause he hadn't gotten signed yet. As Josh becomes a bigger and more devoted fan over the years, Tyler becomes a bigger, more popular, more successful artist. While Josh loved Tyler's success, he secretly wished Tyler didn't become more and more distant from fans, and much harder to reach. Josh thought it was impossible to meet Tyler again, until one day, he takes a wrong turn and finds Tyler crying outside his tour bus. ~~THIS book is COMPLETE. Book 2 (of the same title, Let's Recelebrate) is a DIRECT continuation. It is out now and actively being updated!! ~~ (re)Writing an alternate version of my (probably) most popular book Celebrate, because I always wished I had written the beginning differently. This is how I wished I had written this story in the first place.

killjoy - joshler
josh decided to come closer to the guy, because not only did he want to see what he looked like, but he also wanted to make sure he wasn't a ghost. ghosts were scary, and if he was to be a spirit, josh would know when to run instead of making small talk. "i just came back from a party." josh said, seeing the boy clearly now. the yellow streetlamp shone on his fluffy, brown hair, a permanent pink tint settled on his nose bridge and fatty cheeks. he watched josh make his way into the dim light, seeing him clearly as well. "you're ruining my night walk." the guy said, making a face. - - - - - or, the vampire au nobody asked for. lowercase intended :)Complete
We're Brøken Peøple(Completed)
"Hi. This is..this is Josh. And I'm Josh's Best Friend." "Hello." "Sir...I know what going on in your head right now. I know what that feels like." Tyler said. The man said nothing. "I know what it feels like to be so close...but so far away from freedom. You're so close to pulling that trigger. You're so ready to just..go." The man looked down at the gun. He smiled slightly at the thought. "But you can't do it." The smile turned to a frown quickly and the man looked up at Tyler. "I'm not saying that you aren't capable of doing. I know you are. I know all of you are. I know Josh is. I know I am. But you can't do it. I don't care if you are going through some of the hardest things you have ever encountered. You can't do it. You have to stay alive. Stay alive for me. For Josh. For yourself. How do you see the end if you can't make it through the beginning? How do you see the good when you won't even try to get through the bad?"Complete
Anathema
Anathema: someone or something that one vehemently dislikes, an abhorrence, abomination, accursed. Someone or something consigned to damnation or destruction. Platonic Joshler Life can get pretty difficult when your only two friends are imaginary, and it's even harder when they're not exactly the most positive people on the planet. Tyler is used to that, though, and he's used to pretending they're not there when other people are around. It wasn't so bad, at first, but now that one of them is bent on getting rid of the other, he's having his doubts. Besides, there's another boy now - though Tyler's not even sure if he's real or not, either. ... *TRIGGER WARNING FOR ALMOST EVERY CHAPTER* Depression, suicide, self-harm, etc. Since they're so frequent, I will not be writing warnings during the story. Read at your own risk. Stay safe. #4 in imaginaryfriend #5 in blurryface Started: Nov. 15th 2018 Completed: April 19th 2019Complete
✦Joshler✦: He's A Butcher With A Smile
"Best friend not boyfriend. Best friend not boyfriend," Tyler repeats to himself endlessly. He can't feel this way about his best friend, and he wouldn't let himself. But Tyler should know better than anyone; you can't hide from love. Especially when it grabs you by the heart, twisting and tugging until you have no energy left to stop it. He was in love with Joshua Dun, and eventually, he stopped denying it. There was nothing left for him to do but fall deeper and deeper, past the point of being rescued, for his best friend. •Please correct my mistakes!• This is the first fanfic I ever wrote, so it may not be as good as my newer ones! If you have any suggestions or requests for joshler stories/oneshots, comment and I'll write them. This is hella short, but if you like it, make sure to vote<3 ©Blurry_WriterComplete
