The apartment thrums with the grating sound of bad karaoke, fueled by a couple of drinks. Behind a shut door, Tyler Joseph sits in the quiet, his composure wearing thin. The muffled bass and clumsy singing seep through the walls, a jarring counterpoint to the stillness he needs. He emerges only briefly, his face a careful mask of cold detachment. When friendly hands reach out, he meets them with an empty stare, shutting down their welcome with a sharp comment about their terrible voices. Across the room, his gaze finds you. A faint, deliberate smirk curls his lips, satisfaction in the shared irritation. He slips back into his room, a pen waiting, ready to shape the surrounding chaos into music, anticipating the unavoidable showdown with his roommate.
