:'> tuka - 'nirvana' , that one always hits (verse one for tyler , verse two for josh , and the refrain is owwieee)
secret garden by spiritbox also vibes for when they are apart (in the storyline i have a specific image where tyler is stuck in dema and thinks josh has given up on him and is trying to figure his shit out // josh is so drained that he can't get to tyler and does actually give up for a really horrible moment , staring at these huge walls and thinking about the power of bishops and forgetting why he keeps throwing himself at them when all it does is hurt and break his heart (i have a lot of torchbearer / josh feelings about the story sorry omg) (or it could be good for angsty rpf i dont know your poison)
another emo one is penny and sparrow's 'creature' . ive always wanted to do a joshler fic for this song since i heard it a couple years ago but i never got around to it
car seat headrest's 'cant cool me down' is like a dorky horny vibe that also suits them a bit
hope u like at least one of these !
finally going through my asks - this is so perfect. i haven’t heard the first, though i feel ive heard secret garden before and totally agree with your explanation. more people need to think and talk about josh/torch!!! he is such a tragic character just as much as clancy is and it pains me 😞 i have a playlist of songs that make me think of the lore, so this is definitely going in there!!
creature is one of my favorite songs ever :’) i actually attach it to my vulture tyler au because it just fits so well, but that’s still joshler if you squint? i think?
i loveeee car seat headrest and this pick is just such a fun song in general. in the context of the boys it definitely reminds me of the early days as in they’re not totally sure of what they’re doing just that they enjoy it knowing they’ll figure things out along the way <3
