“I'd rather pretend I'm something better than these broken parts--”

His new medication wasn’t working.

Or, maybe it was working. It was working too much, actually.

He spent the past two weeks in a daze--instead of working through his emotions in a calm and rational manner, he just stopped feeling things at all.

He still sees things--sees them--he still wakes up in the middle of the night from nightmares. Only now, he doesn’t cry. He doesn’t do anything. He can hardly bring himself to react.

Most of his time was spent locked up in his room, sleeping it all off, or faking a smile and making jokes when he was forced to go out with his friends, and today was no different. So, he wasn’t quite sure how Chris found out. Maybe his smile faltered for just a second too long, or he’d been too quiet. Whatever the case, while he was sitting on Chris’s couch, playing some mind-numbing video game, Chris thought that’d be a good time to cuddle up next to him, his grip on his waist a bit tighter than Josh was expecting.

otp and brotp. 

I think there are situations in which they could definitely work as a couple. Overall, it’s pretty clearly established throughout the the game that they’re best bros. Whether or not they work as a couple is up to interpretation. Like the designers said, they didn’t expect for people to see that connection between the two, but they can’t really argue with what people see in it. I think there is definite proof for it pre-until dawn.

As for post-until dawn, I think there would have to be a significant period of time in which Chris learns to trust Josh again. It’s clear that he still loves his friend even though Josh broke Chris trust (you can see this when he insists on going out to find Josh despite the immediate danger of the wendigos). But, for them to work in an actual romantic relationship, I think that they would have to work on trusting each other before they could establish anything real.

“What the hell did you do?”

Chris rushed out of his car to Josh, who was hobblingall over the place. His left leg was badly swollen and was bruised a very nastyshade of blue.

“Judging from the crippling pain in my leg, I’d saythat I’ve probably broken it.” Josh replied, throwing his arm over Chris’shoulder for support. Carefully, they shuffled over to the hood of Chris’ car.Josh pushed himself up on it, letting out a short howl of pain.

Ten minutes ago, Chris had been sitting on his couchwatching a movie with his little sister when he was interrupted by a text fromJosh:

[SMS:] Help, I’ve fallen and I can’t get up.

[SMS:] See this is why you need Life Alert.

[SMS:] Haha. No, but seriously I’m hurt. You need tocome get me.

He hurried out of his house, grabbing his keys anddarting out of the door before his sister could even ask why he was gone.
