"You know the thing about the video that Josh Dun directed is that my butt hurt for 2 days afterwards"

- Tyler Joseph (from the iHeartRadio interview)

[useyourglutes]

looking at josh and tylers relationship is such a wonderful yet bittersweet experience for me :) it's amazing how happy just the right person can make you, how they become an extension of your soul. it makes me genuinely happy to not only indulge in what they do, but to just watch them as people being happy themselves. but on the flip side of that, it almost feels like watching the trees whiz by and water droplets fall down the window during a nighttime car ride, and you're a kid again, and it's the first time you're experiencing nostalgia for something you've never had. it's knowing i'll never have someone like that myself because it's so hard to come by, but being thrilled in seeing it happen for others despite the slight tinge of jealousy.

real best friends are such a pretty thing to see.

[sosclancy]

Working on two fics atm. One is angsty and dark and the other is some real nasty kinky shit, like there's literally no in between when it comes to me writing

[kiitchensiink]

getting awful close there Tyler

Caught watching Joshler moments 👀

[abcmuushroom]

there are three types of clikkies

TØP saved my life. their music got me through my hardest moments. I played their music at my wedding. I have a tattoo of the skeleton clique symbol. my friend killed themself and the only reason I didn't was because of TØP. I owe them everything

tyler and josh are gay for each other

how in god's name do you spell clikkie. cliqui. cliqie. joshler shipper. cliqii. cliquer

i’m really hoping paladin strait is like a 10 minute video featuring cunty acting and a soft joshler moment where josh is comforting tyler that he doesn’t have to do this alone but tyler doesn’t want josh to get hurt

[twinsunsintatooine]

Since it does appear that the Joshler tag is pretty dead at the moment, and most likely will be until tour starts, I thought it might be fun to ask you: What are your top 5 favorite Joshler moments? They can be tweets, videos, pictures, gifs, or whatever catches your fancy!

only a little bit until tour starts please I need joshler renaissance BACKK!!!!

this is one of my fav tweet interactions bc there’s something suspicious…what the hell is going on in the house of commons

this hand holding in the rain is just way too iconic to not include

i love love when they do that jumpy skippy thing like in lavish mv and this and another gif I cannot find

and this final one isn’t even particularly joshler so to say but it’s too funny and I have to include it HAHAHHA josh’s expressions actually kill me in this (here is a link to the twitter post w all vids collated, but you can find it on the official twenty one pilots tiktok account)

Welcome back! It's so good to see you posting again, and I hope life is treating you well!

Since you're so kindly taking Joshler prompts, may I please maybe request a cute little moment where Tyler helps take Josh's necklaces off for him after a show, and brushes the confetti off of him? I'd be incredibly grateful!

EEEEEEEEK I LOVE THIS THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I WAS HOPING FOR!!! What an amazing first Joshler mini prompt <3

Josh stood in the mirror of the dressing room, reaching his hands back clumsily. He was covered in sweat, breathing hard, adrenaline still pumping through him from the show, but top on his priority list was taking off the necklace that had been pinching him on and off the entire night.

It wasn't often that Josh felt the panicked, trapped, visceral pang that happened to him before a panic attack. But there had been something about the nerves of tonight being the first show, the adrenaline that had pumped through him as he sang on stage, and the biting of the necklace as he performed that had set him up perfectly. Now he stood, trying to fight off the feeling and knowing that if he didn't get out of this necklace as soon as possible, he was going to lose the battle and the panic would swallow him hole. It wasn't how he wanted to spend the first night of tour.

His sweaty fingers slipped along the stupid chain and he tried to pull back the hook from the hook and eye without success. He took a frustrated breath but before he could Tyler's steady hands grasp Josh's shoulders from behind.

"Hey, breathe. I got it," Tyler's voice is soft and reassuring, knowing exactly what Josh needs after just a moment in the room.

Josh nods, taking another deep breath, and feels Tyler's fingers, calm and steady, as they start to work. Tyler doesn't ask why Josh is panicking. He doesn't ask what triggered him. He doesn't ask if it was because of the show or his nerves. He just stays behind Josh, a steady, firm presence, as the hook opens and Tyler slides the clasp out of it, taking the necklace off of Josh.

Josh's hand instinctively raises to touch his throat, a deeper calm settling over him. He looked sheepishly over at Tyler who was looking carefully at the necklace.

"Dude, this thing has like..spikes on it," Tyler scrunched his nose up.

"Nah, it's usually fine. Just. Felt tight tonight," Josh rubbed his neck a little bit, turning around so he was facing Tyler again. It was only then that Josh saw the flash of concern on Tyler's face. He may not have been asking Josh the questions of why and what happened because he knew better, but that didn't mean he wasn't still worried about Josh.

Josh found a spot on the floor past Tyler's right shoulder to look at instead of Tyler, his heart was still pounding and he still felt a little shaky but that was mixed with the exhaustion from the show and the relief of having one under their belt. He reached out his hand to grab Tyler's shoulder, and the next moment Tyler had his arms wrapped tightly around Josh.

Josh's arms found their way around Tyler and he pressed his head into a sweaty, firm, comforting, familiar shoulder.

"I was really nervous tonight...I think," Josh breathed into Tyler's neck through the embrace. Tyler nodded and Josh felt his hand move slowly up Josh's sweaty back.

"Josh, you were incredible." Tyler had turned his head down, so that he was speaking almost directly into Josh's ear. Josh hadn't been aware how badly that was something he had needed to hear from Tyler until he felt the release in his shoulders, his back, his legs. He sank deeper into the embrace, into Tyler, and pressed his nose into the crook of Tyler's neck. "Really." Tyler said again, the extra reassurance that Josh always wanted but felt too silly to ask for.

As Tyler's fingers drifted over Josh's back, Tyler checkled. "You have so much confetti stuck to you," He observed, his voice was soft in Josh's ear but it broke the tension and made Josh laugh. He broke away from Tyler then, standing up and looking down at his stomach, at the confetti that littered his chest and his arms.

Tyler's black hands moved to Josh's chest and swept down, collecting the damp confetti and setting Josh's skin on fire as he did it. He did the same over Josh's shoulders and down his back and sides, leaving Josh streaked in the black paint, clear marks of Tyler all over him, which was exactly what he wanted in that moment.

Send me a Mini Joshler Prompt for a little drabble here.

[sirens-wont-wake-me-up]

Fic idea - that time Josh fell off the riser and hit his head, but this time, he gets amnesia. Could one of two ways, either an angsty one where they were in a secret relationship and now Josh doesn't remember it, or, more amusingly, they're not in a relationship, but Josh sees their matching tattoos and all the Joshler interview clips and asks Tyler if they're boyfriends, and Tyler, who has been secretly pining for years, says yes without thinking.

i could both of those ideas as a chaptered fic, and as i liked the two, please help me. which one would you all like better to read?

the first one could be nice and tyler would get to show all the things they used to do but the second one tyler would show josh all the things he has imagined doing IDK I GUESS IM EAGER

thanks anon, i hope you like whatever will be chosen <3

[oldiesstationlover11607]

it's p obvious who I am w these requests bc I literally said so in the comments of my first request but THANK YOU SO MUCH IM OVER THE MOON!!!!!!!! you're a v talented writer I really like these so so much ///////

I've had a loose idea for hanahaki in relation to clancebearer + rebel red carnations / the yellow petals but I have. No idea what to do about that. Maybe you would have some clue LOL

Petals - Torchbearer!Josh Dun x Reader

Warnings: hanahaki + near death experience 😭

Word Count: 1074 - short and sweet

A/N: I don't write for joshler/clance-bearer but I thought I'd write something similar bc I thought this idea was interesting. I saw your other comment about using the null symbol bc you've liked it before tøp so i'm okay with that being ur anon symbol/emjoi thing. Hopefully you enjoy this and request a few more things :) I also have NO idea who u are btw lol.

I never told anyone. It was too much to admit, even to myself. I thought if I kept ignoring it, it would just go away—that maybe if I swallowed it all down hard enough, I could force it back where it belonged. But emotions, like flowers, have a way of growing in the dark.

And it started with yellow.

It was always yellow with him. That color meant loyalty, protection, rebellion. Every time we stood side by side, I’d see the flash of yellow on his clothes. I wanted to ask him what it all meant, why he wore it with such conviction. But then, what did I know about loyalty?

After all, I couldn’t even stay true to myself.

I’d been with the Torchbearer for so long, following him through every battle, every narrow escape from Dema, through the endless fight to keep the torch burning. I admired him, envied him even. He was always so sure of what he was doing, so steady when everything around us seemed to fall apart.

But somewhere along the way, admiration became something else. Something more painful, more personal. And I knew that if I let it out, it would consume me. So, I buried it. Deep.

The problem was… it didn’t stay buried.

I felt it the first time a petal fluttered from my lips, a strange tickling sensation that I brushed off as dust or something in the air. But the petals kept coming, like little reminders that I was no longer in control. Bright, vibrant yellow petals—his color. Every time I coughed, I found more. I started hiding them, stuffing them into my pockets or crushing them beneath my heel when no one was looking.

I thought I could manage it. After all, I’d managed to keep my feelings hidden from him, hadn’t I?

But it was getting worse. The pressure in my chest was unbearable some days, like something had rooted itself deep inside my lungs and refused to let go. The more I tried to swallow it down, the more it seemed to grow, spreading its roots until even breathing felt like a struggle.

I couldn’t tell him. I couldn’t tell anyone.

Then came the day of the hike.

The Torchbearer had suggested it, saying we all needed a break, a moment to step away from Dema’s gray walls and the constant threat of the Bishops. Clancy had agreed, and before I knew it, we were hiking through the woods just outside the city limits. The air was fresh, the sky clear, and for a little while, I thought maybe this could help. Maybe I could breathe.

But I couldn’t.

Each step felt heavier than the last. I could barely keep up, my breaths coming in short gasps. My throat burned, and I could feel the petals pushing up, scratching at the back of my throat, begging to be released.

I stumbled, my vision blurring. The Torchbearer’s voice cut through the haze, calling my name, but it sounded distant, like he was miles away instead of just a few steps ahead.

“Are you okay?” His voice was close now, his hand on my arm, steadying me. I didn’t dare look at him. I didn’t want him to see what was happening.

But it was too late.

The moment I opened my mouth to speak, a cluster of yellow petals spilled out, floating to the ground between us. I froze, my breath catching in my chest as more petals followed—whole flowers now, bright and vivid and wrong. I couldn’t stop it.

The Torchbearer’s eyes widened, his hand tightening around my arm as he crouched in front of me. “What—what is this?”

I choked, trying to push the words out between the petals, but it was useless. My throat was full of them, each one sharper than the last, tearing at me from the inside. Tears stung my eyes as I doubled over, clutching my chest, my hands trembling as more flowers fell.

He didn’t let go. His voice was frantic now, his eyes scanning me, desperate for answers I couldn’t give. “Hey, what’s happening?” He looked at Clancy, who seemed to know exactly what’s going on. 

The truth was as tangled inside me as the flowers themselves. “It’s—” I coughed again, spitting out another petal, my voice raw and strained. 

“It’s Hanahaki disease,” Clancy started, “it happens sometimes in Dema, a–uh, side effect of repressing your feelings–romantic ones.”

The Torchbearer’s brows furrowed in confusion. “I don’t—what does that mean? Why is this happening?”

I squeezed my eyes shut, the weight of it all crushing me. 

“It means… it means she likes you.” The words fell from his lips like a confession, a release. 

The silence that followed was worse than the pain. It was suffocating, like the flowers had stolen the air from my lungs completely. I waited for him to pull away, to let go, to leave me there with my shame and the flowers that were killing me from the inside.

But he didn’t.

Instead, I felt his hand on my face, soft and steady, his thumb brushing away the tears I hadn’t even realized were there. “You—” His voice was thick, like he was trying to process it all at once. “You’re sick because of me?”

I nodded, unable to meet his eyes. 

“It happens when someone loves someone else, but they don’t think it’s mutual. The flowers grow… and eventually, they take over,” Clancy continued. 

There was a pause, and then I felt his arms wrap around me, pulling me into his chest. His voice was low, trembling. “You should have told me.”

I shook my head, words unable to escape my mouth.

“You’re not going to lose me,” he whispered, his breath warm against my hair. “You never were.”

I pulled back just enough to see his face, my heart pounding in my chest.

He smiled, a soft, sad smile that made my chest tighten. “I’m saying I love you too.” His thumb brushed over the yellow petal still clinging to my lips. “I’m saying you don’t have to do this alone anymore.”

The flowers stopped. Just like that.

As he held me, I felt the weight in my chest lift, the pressure easing as if his words had reached deep inside me and pulled the roots free. I could breathe again.

And for the first time in a long while, I wasn’t afraid of the yellow.

REQUESTS OPEN

[krysiliss]

˚₊‧꒰ა . ——— ˗ˏˋ ✮ ˎˊ˗ ——— ˖ ໒꒱ ‧₊˚

Tyler drawing sheet I did :P I love drawing him I forgot how fun it was to draw the boys. Still getting used to drawing Tylers hair and features in my style so this is just some practice and trying out new poses. I usually am rlly bad at side views and just started to improve so hooray :D

I’ll do a Josh one too once I get some ideas for poses and more of them together bc who doesn’t love a joshler moment likee.

Also if you ever wanna rp Joshler stuff I have a post up about it already but I would love new partners for that :’)

˚₊‧꒰ა . ——— ˗ˏˋ ✮ ˎˊ˗ ——— ˖ ໒꒱ ‧₊˚

[rabidty]

I ship Joshler in a non joking way

babes same but also not same. idk irl i do think they have done some stuff back in the early days before they’re wives n kids n jim but idk they just have their moments n it always gets to me

[ill-procastinato]

took this from @1337wtfomgbbq bc yes.

Pairing/Shippy list!

Here's the rules:

1. List your top seven ships

2. Put all of them in order of your love for them; 7 to 1, 1 being your favorite.

3. Name their fandom.

4. Supply photos for said people.

7. Grimpulse - Hermitcraft RPF, Minecraft SMP

(artwork by @ink-ghoul )

Please do not question my Minecraft phase, I'm sure y'all had some childish phases as well. (I was obsessed with this duo for a long time, like 3 years?) Ik it's just Minecraft but the chemistry between these two (NOT THE REAL PPL GOD-) was just mmm. Fantastic.

6. Gavin Reed x RK900 - Detroit: Become Human RPF

(art by @thirium-drinker ) (i fricking love their art)

Yes. Video game characters. And this is more recent. I just think they're neat. Bitchy bottom Gavin and cunning top RK900. I love their dynamic.

5. Charlos - Formula one RPF

Finally, real people. Yes ik.

The present Ferrari bois. I mean c'mon. They're just pure souls suffering the wrath of being a Ferrari driver (together uwu).

It is pretty self explanatory, no?

4. Lestappen - Formula one RPF

Redbull vs Ferrari. Always a classic. Also you can't tell me Max doesn't have a soft spot for Charles. Both are the popular hotshots, who fight for the top spot (both in race and bedroom hehehe) and i feel they're very compatible.

3. Carlando - Formula one RPF

THEY LEGIT LOOK LIKE BOYFRIENDS, NO??

this is such a good ship, the banter, the fun. And the rivalry hehe. They are one of the top pairings, if not the best, in the current grid.

2. Brocedes - Formula one RPF

Yes. I chose pain. The lovers to enemies plot. I usually don't like angst but this is so traumatic haha i love it. (Help) For all your angsty needs.

Jokes aside, i think their characters are polar opposites of each other. Which is both complimenting and contrasting.

Honorable mention: Joshler - Twenty One Pilots

Yes, I'm aware I'm very late on the TØP bandwagon, but at least i didn't miss out, right?

Yes so about these two. I love how they do everything together, as one, and never leave the other hanging/ feeling stupid. And also their slightly (very) fruity moments are amazing.

And finally

1. Simi - Formula one RPF

THEMMM!!! AAAA 💥💥

I will spontaneously combust. This duo. IS THE BEST!!! A cold emotion-concealing man falls for an extroverted German twink golden retriever. Or the other way around. They compliment each other so much. They have the best fluff content ever.

Stomach full of butterflies for them eeee 💖💕

So i tag @itsillyakuryakin , @lesharl-eclair , @blorbocedes , @vetteller , and @thatquirkycookie to do this.

And anyone else is welcome to copy this!

[vialism]

I’ve seen people say pilotcule is bad and weird because they think Jenna and Josh, and Debby and Tyler fuck like……. where was that said……? You see the idea of four people who have a decade of history together and the first thing you think of is, “they’re having sex” and not the strong bond they all share?

I get so much joy out of it because it’s obvious they all platonically love and care about each other. And with the kids? The clip of Rosie and Debby in the boxing ring, and Josh holding Tommy with Jenna holding Junie was adorable

i agree that all the stuff you’re describing is so cute and a big reason why a lot of people like thinking about the four of them in a poly sense :,) they clearly have a really really special bond, and that’s undeniable!

i agree with you that there’s a big misunderstanding of what poly shipping actually means (i.e. it certainly is not a ‘wife swap’ situation). i also think there are some beautiful, respectful fics out there that write all of them (or some combination of them) in non-platonic relationships, including sexual ones. and i gotta be honest, i’ve considered many perspectives on this both previously and in the last 24 hours, and i still do not see the issue. i get where people are coming from with the argument that josh and tyler have said it’s okay but jenna and debby haven’t, and if that’s how people feel, it’s really fine to just not engage with fics that don’t align with your comfort level/values! that is fine!

however, by that logic, it would also not be appropriate to include mark, michael, jordan (who gets written fucking tyler!), etc. in any fics that are nsfw. and some of the people having a moral panic moment over the idea of people shipping tyler/debby or whatever seem to be a-okay with tyler/paul, tyler/jordan, tyler/michael… so i’m just genuinely confused about the benchmark for what people consider to be acceptable here. because to my eyes it kind of just seems like people are fine with them being shipped with any and all men, but not the women they’re closest to, which is…strange to say the least.

my short-ish stance on this is that nsfw rpf of all kinds (joshler, pilotcule, or otherwise) should generally be kept in places where it can be reasonably assumed the boys and their social circles will not see it. so. probably not out in the open on twitter. that’s kind of always how this community has handled it until the last year or so, and i haven’t seen poly ships under fire until now.

i love you little poly shippers in my phone, it’s gonna be alright.

[tylerssblurry]

If it wouldn't be too late to send you a fluffy Joshler (well, Trenchler in this case) prompt: May I please request Clancy and Torchbearer cuddling by the campfire, and just generally having a happy, peaceful moment together? I'd really appreciate it!

ITS NEVER TOO LATE!! always send me stuff i need to write more :) ill get on it and reblog this with the link when i post it
