things abt dps i feel like we dont address enough (photos attached will be shit quality, i took screenshots from yt clips LMAO)

heavily ib @pencileraser1's post abt stuff he noticed n such

the fucking KIDS at welton. the CHILDREN. maybe its just me but i always find myself forgetting that welton isnt a highschool + there are in fact a lot more students than the ones we're focusing on. thats what makes welton so like. evil? to me? they start pushing these kids into a box EARLY.

related, i wouldve LOVED to see how(/if?) keating taught these kids, or rly any other class! he has other classes!!! i think!

ok. of course. neil is a smoker, we've touched on that. but charlie is too?? and he's the one who provides the cigs???? obviously the easy explanation is that he does it to be rebellious and stuff but also Is There Something Else. much to think abt. also wondering where he gets his cigs but thats not rly anything i dont think.

this ones just funny but when mr perry tells the boys they can take a seat and todd simply does not. i KNOW he wasnt sitting before and he needs to unpack and stuff but ITS STILL FUNNY.

"take your seats boys"

"🧍"

also my guilty pleasure is the dps but its todd being anxious video bc man usually crack videos arent my jam but unfortunately i find it so funny

also!!! neil calling his dad sir. obviously its something so glaringly obvious that we dont need to have a discussion abt how theres a disconnect between them. like wow rly thanks mona i didnt know. but come on!!! it makes me sad!!! also they shake hands later in this scene and its the most affectionate/ friendly we see these two get. and its a handshake. and i think what makes it worse is that neil is a SUPER physically affectionate person with his friends. if u watch the movie and pay attention to how often he's touching someone else then ur gonna be like man. he rly was jumping at every opportunity huh.

something about the way neil and the boys act around mr perry makes me view him as more of a drill sargent than anything. everyone immediately stands upon him entering the room. they dont sit until given permission. it rly puts the whole military school thing into perspective but NOT ENOUGH TO SATISFY ME. as much as i hate mr perry, i wanna know what his life was like growing up. this man lived thru the great depression AND wwii, theres stories.

cam's stupid fucking face when keatings behind him larping ghosts. i will never stop talking about how sassy this kid is. the dps redheads go criminally unacknowledged in terms of comedy because OH MY GOD. CAM AND MEEKS WERE SO FUCKING FUNNY??? they both pulled the most dastardly judgemental looks and they make me cackle. a bit earlier in this scene meeks goes full 🙄🤨 on sniffles (tissue kid. i call him sniffles) and it is, without exaggeration, my fav part of the movie.

the fact that i totally thought knox was gonna fall off his bike and eat shit in this scene. it would be so out of place since dps isn't exactly full of physical comedy but GOD i still fully anticipated it. either that or him getting attacked by a bird. theres totally symbolism surrounding birds in this movie btw and idk what to make of it. if any of u lovely ppl have a theory then lmk immediately.

keating so accurately calling cam out being like "is this right is this right. am i walking right." BC YESSS. i will eventually make a fully fledged cam post but to briefly touch on it, i find cam to be very confused on what is right, usually in terms of morals. a whole situation of confusing your personal values with the rules, thinking theyre one in the same, and completely abandoning what u actually believe. unfortunately i think neils death rly amplified that nd is what led him to tattle. cuz cam is still willing to break the rules in the beginning of the movie!! he's outwardly judgemental but he still does it!! much to discuss, i promise i will eventually.

keatings face after todd yawps!!! theres not much to say here he is just so proud!!! sweet little moment!!!! keatpostin!!!!!!!!

YOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

u guys know im an avid knox hater but this made me giggle. rip knox overstreet u wouldve loved twitch streaming.

THE SPECIFICS OF THIS SHOT. i was gonna make a post a while ago being like "idk i find it funny that the main focus of this shot isnt even one of the poets" and then i realised that WAITTTTTTT THATS THE POINT!!!! keating reached kids besides the poets!!! u didnt have to be in the dead poets society to be affected by the way he taught his classes!!! u just had to be his student!!!!! also i love the fact that the kids who stayed seated r ASHAMED. EMBARRASSED.

the ending shot. oihghgghgg. it was SUCH a choice to set it up this way and honestly i adore peter for making it. this shot is SOOOO UNCOMFORTABLE TO LOOK AT and i love it. when i first watched this i was like "uhm ok interesting choice putting todd between this kids legs but I GET IT. one of the biggest things i remember from the film classes i took is that the way u set up shots is sooo important narratively, and one way to rly push the narrative is the space around a character in a shot. for example! if u have a character on screen surrounded by a TON of negative space then it rly emphasises how alone/ isolated they are. on the other end of the spectrum (the todd spectrum), if you surround a character in a shot with other objects or obstructions, like todd and this kids legs, then it rly emphasises how trapped and confined they are. looking at this makes me feel like. claustrophobic almost, like it's genuinely a bit harder to breathe looking at it. TODD IS STILL TRAPPED IN THAT SCHOOL. YES HE STOOD ON THE DESK AND YES HE NOW HAS THE MOTIVATION TO BE MORE CONFIDENT BC OF NEIL BUT HE! IS STILL! TRAPPED THERE!

more on todd since im on a roll here.

i was also gonna add that we dont rly talk about todd personality wise outside of poetry and anxiety but then i realised, what else is there? we dont really see much about him as a person outside of that, and i think thats the point! todd is constantly overshadowed by his brother, we know that, but i dont think we realise HOW MUCH that ties in with his entire character. quite honestly, outside of poetry and anxiety, ALL we have surrounding todd is his brother and his achievements. and of course! that makes sense! his parents want him to be just like his brother, they dont care about who he is as a person. UGH.

the desk set scene rly is the most insight we'll get into todds actual personality and desires imo, and thats what kills me. he wants a car!!!! get this boy a car!!!!!!!!! we rly see him start to open up before neils death and i wouldve LOVED to get to know todd when he's actually in a place to be himself!! but of course we never got that! sobs.

anywho. thats all i have for now. PLEASE share ur thoughts if u have any pls pls pls. encouraging discussion!! i love love love hearing about the specifics nd stuff, theres soooo much to pick apart abt this movie so i wanna hear everyones thoughts.

Now that I'm thinking about it idk if I'm more pissed at the writers of DPS or my parents who let me watch the movie with no warning despite KNOWING that the main reason I was watching it in the first place was BECAUSE of RSL

Anyway sorry you probably don't care I'm just very mad and very not okay whyd they have to do my boy like that bruh

that ending really does hit you like a fucking truck, right? lmao i feel you, buddy

jokes aside, i am absolutely sure the writers decided to make the audience completely fall in love with neil perry only for his death to hurt more, i hate them for that (but it is actually very smart)

also i very much do care

#rsl just adds so much to it too #his whole essence is so easy to love #.q&a

hi ! congrats on 300 !

could i get an ursa major ? the fandoms would be dead poets society, marauders era and/or stranger things.

i’m 5’2, i have black hair with graying hair ( yes, i'm growing old ), i have tanned skin and light chocolate brown eyes and i’m bisexual. i’m a virgo and i'm quite outgoing. i like to portray myself as myterious and cool but the second someone talks about something i like, instantly turn into a hyper puppy. my usual style is mainly denim. i do wear hoodies and jumpers too !! lately i've been wearing warm sweater like tops.

i love making characters or psychology in general. the idea how everyone is different and can yet share the same qualities baffle me extremely. my favourite thing in the world is music. can't live without it. i listen to it all the time as much as i can, everyday. my music taste is rock or indie rock with hints of pop. i do enjoy the occasional classical since i play piano.

i don't really like maths even though i'd like to say i'm decent at it. i love history but that's just because of my teacher. my favourite tropes are rockstar's gf, moon x star couple, mutual, secret, slow burn pining and last but not least fake dating.

thank you!

dead poets society:

i ship you with neil perry!

i have no real explanation, just the vibe. i feel like he falls in love with 'mysterious' people but he always brings up their 'puppy' side as you say very easily because he's just someone you're comfortable around quickly. also the loving psychology thing makes me think of him, again no real reason sorry :)) will be your biggest fan when you're playing the piano!

the marauders:

i ship you with remus lupin!

he would love to listen to music with you!! i know you like rockstar's gf trope so it sounds more like sirius but moon x star (he's the moon ur the star) also slow burning and secret relationship is so remus. also psychology and history is so remus vibes too. you would wear his sweaters!!!

stranger things:

i ship you with eddie munson!

rockstar's gf!!!! criticize your music taste but secretly loves it. you would steal his denim jacket! and he loves you so much when you're wearing it!! was probably too scared to talk to you first because he thought you were so cool and the only way he would get your attention was through his big speeches in the cafeteria. imagine fake dating with eddie because he found a shitty excuse so you could fake a date bc he didn't know how to ask you out lmao

"inspiration". | neil perry, dps.

in which a summer is spent with the poets, with a significant feature of neil perry.

✧ title: "inspiration".

✧ pairing: neil perry x fem!reader.

✧ genre: fluff, with slight mentions of angst.

✧ word count: 2,733.

✧ warnings: written in headcanon format, home life mentions, the reader lives in meeks' grandma's house, knox being a simp for chris.

✦ author’s note: requested by @mybabysweetascanbe! it's kinda funky how i wrote this as a headcanon but it still ended up being my longest fic lmao. also i wrote the poem that neil made for the reader myself so i'm sorry if it's kinda cheesy 🗿 but i hope you all enjoy this one !! don't forget to take care of yourselves guys <3

✎ The summer holidays had always been a time for the poets’ relief.

✎ Their academic year was constantly filled with difficulties for the poets, but it was harder for some when they were home for the summer.

✎ Neil felt as though he couldn’t be himself-- he loved reading and writing even more so than he did with accomplishing any of his parents’ wishes, like heading into medical school. He especially loved to act, and it was rough to keep that concealed around his dictatorial father.

✎ Todd’s older brother would be at home as well, and it was worse enough being in his shadow; but it had gotten worse with every one of his parents’ daily proclamations.

“We were quite disappointed with your grades from last semester, son,” His father reprimanded, looking down on him with stern eyes. “I just don’t understand what’s gotten into you. Your mother and I raised you quite well and you have your brother to guide you along. You know that he’s remarkably intelligent and well accomplished. Why can’t you be more like your brother?”

✎ Charlie and Knox had been just like Neil. The constant pressure that their parents put on them about becoming a banker and a lawyer was daunting; and all they wanted was to simply live as regular teenagers without concern for their future.

✎ Fortunately, Meeks’ grandmother was a woman who had a colossal and motherly love for the poets with a sizable residence in which her grandson’s friends could inhabit during their vacation.

✎ Thus, the poets resided in the Meeks household in the summer before their senior year so as to escape the stress and troubles brought to them in their own homes.

✎ Even though the summer was fleeting and their time was short, the poets found their time to be everlasting when they met the student boarder of the house.

✎ She went by the name of Y/N, which was a name that sounded just as sweet as the lady to whom it was attached.

“Hello, everybody! I’m Y/N!” The girl said, reaching out her hand to shake one of the poets’. Truth be told, it had been quite some time since any one of the boys had been in close contact with a woman; so they found themselves to be quite the martians in the situation. It took a few moments before one of the poets-- Neil Perry-- could offer his hand and shake hers. “I’m Neil! We’re friends of Meeks and his classmates from Welton.” The boy swore that he felt a spark as their fingertips touched, but he tossed the feeling aside; along with the apparition that he saw of a faint glimmer in Y/N’s eyes.

✎ The boys instantly took her in to their little group, and they all fell in love with her personality-- which was a platonic statement of course; but Neil Perry found this to be otherwise as he actually began falling into love with the new girl.

✎ He loved the way she cared for her new friends, the way she projected her personality through the clothes she wore, and all of the little smiles she gave him.

✎ With every beam and twinkle that she delivered, Y/N found herself to be falling for Neil as well.

✎ He provided a feeling for her that made the blacks of her eyes expand and butterflies to quiver inside-- which was the very same one Neil had felt when he first laid his eyes on her.

✎ She had been a fantastic addition to the band of poets, and the boys could not have had it any other way.

Despite the summer coming into fruition, the poets did not fail to meet up in their little cave every once in a while to read poetry, discuss girls, and laugh. The first meeting of that summer was simply like any other. “Guys, what do we think of Y/N?” Meeks questioned. A clamor of answers that ranged between “I think she’s great,” and “Do you think Mrs. Meeks has any more people in her house like Y/N?” echoed in the dark cave. Clearly, the boys had favored Y/N; but certainly not to the point where they’d be infatuated with her. “Yeah, I think she’s nice. She’s really pretty too,” Knox added. “Woah there Knoxious,” Charlie replied, expelling out a chortle. “I don’t think Chris would like to hear that. And besides, she looks more like she’s Neil’s type than yours.” Charlie’s words weren’t incorrect, but it was needless to say that Neil had strongly agreed with that statement.

✎ Over the summer, they would all begin to get to know each other better.

✎ The poets eventually introduced Y/N to the intricate realm of poetry, and she wholeheartedly fell in love with every line that was recited.

✎ They enjoyed every moment of their fleeting time together. Of course, there would be times where the boys would get into small fights and bickers.

✎ Pitts would always be yelling at Charlie for taking an ungodly amount of time in the shower, while Charlie would be yelling back about how Pitts always seemed to inhale the food that Mrs. Meeks provided for them before he himself could even take one bite.

✎ Cameron did his best to do some summer reading at night, but he found it quite hard as his room was beside Knox’s room, and Knox would spend hours on end talking to Chris over the phone.

“Oh, Chris. How do I love thee?” Knox sighed, lacing the telephone cords in between his fingers. “That’s the title of a poem we learned in Mr. Keating’s class. It reminds me of how lovely you are. Of course, she’s not as pretty as you are,” Knox’s giggles not only erupted through the phone; but it travelled through the walls as well, disrupting Cameron from the climax of his novel. “We get it, Knox! You’re a romantic poet! Now why don’t you go tell Chris about how you finished with a D minus in English!”

✎ While all of the little squabbles took place, they hadn’t even noticed the slight change in Neil and Y/N’s behavior.

✎ Y/N seemed to be keeping to herself more often, while Neil appeared to have possessed an undying smile on his face around the poets; particularly in the mornings when everyone gets up early except for him and Y/N.

✎ Little did they know, Y/N’s room had been vacant for the past few days since the arguments began-- which was approximately three weeks after the boys had arrived to the Meeks’ residence; and Neil seemed to be giggling in his room every night when the rest were asleep.

✎ In the duration of those three weeks, Neil had become more familiar with Y/N than any of the other poets had been.

✎ They’d walk along the nearby river every morning, discuss poetry in the late afternoons, and eventually fall asleep in each other’s arms at night.

“How long have you been living here?” Neil inquired, peering into Y/N’s eyes. His vision didn’t have to stretch too far as his face had only been a breath away from Y/N’s. The pair laid together under the warm covers of Neil’s bed with their legs entangled in one another’s and their hands interlocked, talking about anything and everything that came to their minds. “It’s been two years since Mrs. Meeks took me in,” She replied, gazing over Neil’s chiseled face. “In the whole time I’ve been here, I think you’re the most interesting thing that’s happened to me,” Y/N added, beaming up at Neil. Hearing her words, Neil slowly leaned his lips onto Y/N’s forehead, giving her an endearing kiss. She too had been the most interesting thing to happen to Neil in a long time.

✎ For each and every day that they were together, Neil wrote love poems.

✎ His poems revolved around his time with Y/N and included detail of all sorts; such as how colors appeared to be more bright and more vivid when he was with her and how lovelier the birds had sounded in the morning during their walks.

"My love,

The luminosity of the golden sun

does not compare to the radiance

of your glowing skin.

In this air full of morning dew,

the most beautiful scent in the air

is still you.

The sounds we hear of the melodious

birds are all because of your presence,

and they sing only for your beauty.

I look into your eyes and I see nature

reflected back at me; but it is much more

pleasant to perceive than if I were to do so

through my own set of eyes.

Though the morning lasts for a mere set of hours,

My fascination for you can go for as long as

this smooth river flows.

✎ Neil felt embarrassed about being so infatuated with Y/N, so he kept his poems hidden for the time being.

✎ Somehow, the boys had failed to notice Neil and Y/N’s constant disappearance.

✎ Although, they’d make little remarks from time to time that ran along the lines of “Ooh, Neil found a muse!” and “Y/N definitely likes somebody here. It’s probably me.”

✎ The last comment came from Charlie, which later earned him a smack on the head from Neil.

✎ So, Neil and Y/N did their best to keep their relationship hidden throughout the summer.

✎ The two were rather domestic in their relationship; they did all of the typical-couple activities that everyone else had done.

✎ To anyone else it would have been rather common to witness, but to them it was simply extraordinary being with one another.

It had been a scenic day at the river that morning. The beauty of the nature surrounding it had been ordinarily pleasing to Y/N; but all of its best qualities were magnified for Neil as his hand was in hers and the only thing he could smell was her fragrance. He had been quite nervous for the entire morning as he promised himself the night before that he would finally gather the courage to say those three magic words he’d been imagining to say for quite some time. Unbeknownst to him, Y/N had been thinking the same and had been visualizing how she would say it at that moment for the past few hours since. Just when the cascading waters began to relax and the chirping of the birds started to quiet down, the pair stopped on their trail and those three words were finally professed by Neil in a sudden manner while Y/N had spoken the same in a clear and gentle tone. They looked into each other’s eyes, recognizing the same look of love and eventually realizing what was said. As it was acknowledged, the two lovers simply smiled at each other and kept walking along; their hearts now beating on the same rhythm and their minds thinking of nothing but one another.

✎ Time to time, they would go up to the attic and listen to the music from Mrs. Meeks’ old gramophone, caressing one another as they slowly dance along to the lyrics of Ella Fitzgerald’s songs.

✎ Neil would always sneak a flower out of Mrs. Meeks’ rose garden and leave it on Y/N’s bedside table for her to wake up to.

✎ One of Y/N’s ways of communicating her love would be recommending books to Neil that she thinks is encompassed with his personality. Since then, Neil’s library had enlarged to a great extent.

✎ There would also be some occasions where one of them-- mostly Neil-- would get a little cheeky and try to express their love for the other out in the open.

“Eat up, boys! You know there’s plenty more of where that came from, so don’t be afraid to dig in!” Mrs. Meeks endorsed, setting down a bowl of mashed potatoes. With a jubilant ‘thank you’, everyone at the table promptly began to tuck into the mouthwatering cuisine. The boys soon found themselves distracted with the heavenly taste of Mrs. Meeks’ cooking; and Neil took this opportunity to covertly sneak his right hand onto Y/N’s thigh under the table. A scarlet blush crept its way up to Y/N’s cheek as she sent Neil a glare. Though her eyes expressed the message of “Not here!”, every other signal in her body sent the message of ‘Yes, Please’ to a very triumphant Neil.

✎ The summer inevitably came to an end and the boys were forced to return to Welton, much to their dismay.

✎ They couldn’t stand ending their summer; and they especially couldn’t stand leaving their new friend behind while the rest of them stayed together.

“Oh God, How are we supposed to leave this beautiful girl all alone in this big house?!” Charlie pleaded, theatrically dropping down to his knees and shouting out loud to the heavens. “It’s all just too emotional for us,” Pitts added as he went along with his friend’s act, his head bowing down to the ground in grief as he placed a comforting hand on Charlie’s shoulder. “Just take me with her, God! Let me be with Y/N at her all-girls school!”

✎ Despite all of the inconveniences they put upon Y/N, the poets really did leave a mark on her. These boys showed her a new way of life-- she knows what ‘Carpe Diem’ means, and she knows how to seize her days because of them.

✎ Of course, Neil had a harder time coming into terms with their departure more than anyone else.

✎ Leaving the Meeks’ residence meant that he was leaving Y/N, which was something that he hadn’t prepared himself for.

“I’m not ready to leave you,” Neil confessed. Tears were beginning to form in his eyes, but he quickly blinked them away. After the individual hugs and goodbyes Y/N had given to the rest of the poets, the ill-fated time had come when she had to bid her own farewell to her lover. Neil believed that though their time was short and fleeting, it truly had been something special and something that he’ll never forget. Y/N was his first love, his first muse, his first everything; and no amount of riches could ever sum up to the prominence of that. Y/N placed her hand on Neil’s face, stroking away his tears with her thumb as she felt her eyes begin to swell up as well. “I’ll write to you every day, Neil.” Naturally, Y/N was on the brink of tears as well. She couldn’t bear to leave Neil after everything he’s shown her. It feels like she’s known him forever, yet everything felt so new and exciting with him. She loved him too much, and she knows she’ll continue to love him long after.

✎ Neil was afraid that she would forget about what they had soon after she had left, so he decided to give her all of the poems he had written about her.

✎ As her hands clasped the thick set of parchment, the tears she had been trying so hard to conceal had all poured out, staining the paper and her hands.

“Neil… these are beautiful,” She croaked. Her eyes skimmed over every title and date, realizing that there had been a poem for each and every splendid day that they had been together. “You’re beautiful, Y/N. That’s why I wrote these,” Neil corrected. “Everything I love about you is in these poems, and all of the love I have for you is written in each letter. I just don’t want you to forget about me while we’re apart.” The absurdity of Neil’s words made Y/N chuckle softly before she stepped forward and linked her hands around Neil’s neck, reducing the space between their lips. “I love you, Neil. You’re always going to be in my mind and you’ll always have my heart in the little pocket of your Welton blazer.”

✎ Y/N felt truly fortunate to have met Neil. This summer had come as quite a surprise for her-- she did not expect to fall in love so soon and with such an extraordinary person like Neil Perry. He was everything she’d ever looked for and he gave everything she deserved.

✎ Even though the bright days of the summer had ended and the early falling leaves of the autumn was yet to arrive, the change was of no concern as the only thing that mattered was what had been consistent-- and for Y/N and Neil, the thing that stood still for the two of them despite all odds was each other.

hmmmmmmm. it is here

anderson & perry teacher headcanons :)

idk if theyre teachers in the same universe at the same time but i love the idea of either of them teaching, obviously in part having been inspired by mr keating and experiencing firsthand how much a good teacher can impact u and wanting to give other kids that experience

if it IS the same universe they probably work in the same district bc u know, they live together, its probably closest for both

todd would work at an elementary/middle school and neil would work at a high school (or maybe they'd both work at the same k/6-12 school) so a few years later when a kid would say they went to x school neil would ask if they had mr anderson n then would talk abt him a bit :) (regardless of if they said yes or no. he just likes to talk abt him)

in a more modern au both r those lovely teachers that have a pride flag somewhere in their room<33

so ofc a lot of kids would feel safe around them + come talk to them abt anything/bein queer :)

both in an only one of them is a teacher (and both are alive and together) au loves to brag/talk about the other; my friend/roommate/partner/husband (depends) is a poet is an actor guys he is so talented and cool ..,.,. :-)

speaking of! individually ;

mister teacher todd anderson :)

i feel like he'd be fine teaching any grade, moving around schools a lot, and/or being the sub everyone loves

he still does writing on the side/as a hobby ofc

at a middle school level he'd want to teach english, but idk im one to bet he'd be able (or might have to lmao idk how teaching works) to teach any core subject

at a high school level he would love to not only teach core english but also at least one of the lang/lit electives like poetry or uh. what else is there. speech & debate. women in literature

ok maybe not speech & debate. or maybe! maybe he took that type of class in college & gained public speaking skills/confidence or whatever and wants to spread the good word to quiet high school kids that public speaking is a learned skill!

he is the kind of teacher that, as a core teacher, lots of ppl know and lots of ppl love + respect

feel like he'd run a club. not sure which one

aside from the normal amount of rowdy teens/tweens, a lot of teachers r like holy shit mr anderson ur classes are always so ... good. like. everyone in them. and hes like lmao yeah i dont just make them memorize information i teach them in a way so they'll enjoy/appreciate the subject. plus two sided respect and trust and stuff!

in sum good kind teacher todd anderson

alright now mister teacher neil perry :)

he's Smart i'll bet he could teach any of the core subjects

or again maybe at some point he'd have to. idk how teaching works

his core topic of choice'd be english though

i wanna say second would be science bc even though he never cared abt it his parents ensured he exceeded at it so now hes super science smart</3 maybe he'll try to give kids a better experience with it idk! and ofc

thats not whats important whats important is him being a theater teacher

at a high school level btw. for some reason i can only picture him as a high school teacher

he did do acting/was involved in the acting/theater world for at least a few years prior but then decided he wanted to combine that w/ his desire to leave a positive impact on younger ppl who wanted to get into acting!!

(or just kids who needed an art credit whatever everyones welcome)

he'd probably want to stay at the same high school for a while, yk build a community + familiarity with how the program runs there and ofc get to know the kids and then their younger siblings two or five or ten years later

he has ... a very strong voice. he's not mean by any means and, being the theater teacher, he'd never put kids in situations they don't wanna be in, but his voice is very good for (lovingly (sometimes)) shouting at the juniors messing around on the clear opposite end of the theater

freshmen are always scared of him. but not in a bad way simply in an intimidated way. upperclassmen say dont worry hes cool i swear :)

it is very important to me to reiterate this for neil specifically he def would have a lil pride flag in a cupholder in his office in a more modern au

kids come 2 his office to cry. u know. as u do in theater. and he is good at handling crying teenagers

ok i think thats all ive got for now

#this is over 700 words and i will not be apologizing or putting it under a cut #however i will say #long post #dead poets society #dps headcanons #todd anderson #neil perry #anderperry #a lil #cowboy posts

no mangoes???💔💔💔

lmao im guessing you like more water concentrated fruits? maybe watermelons or apples?

i do like watermelons a lot but somehow don't eat them very often :((

as for apples - meh.

I really like grapes and oranges though (@real-neil-perry are you proud of me)

but CUCUMBERS. THEY ARE. THE BEST. i would not survive in a world without cucumbers.

#wby what fruits do you like 👀#asks answered

I think about The Oh Hellos’ music far too much so uh. I’m writin out some of the good brain goop !!

songs by The Oh Hellos that I associate with the Dead Poets:

Neil Perry:

Dear Wormwood. holy hell it’s literally one of the most Neil songs I have ever heard. it seems a lot to me like him confronting his father and all that he’s done to him, especially with the lyrics ‘in my hour of weakness, you were there to see my courage fail,’ what with the canon events of the film. Glowing is another one, I just think the songs theme fits Neil really well and they’re both bangers

Todd Anderson:

Constellations matches Todd’s vibe literally PERFECTLY. I cannot put it into words but it just fits so well in my mind. it’s like,, sort of poetic and idk it’s just such a beautiful song. the second one for me is Second Child, Restless Child which from the title is kinda obvious why I associate it with Todd, but it also does fit lyric wise to me

Charlie Dalton:

Thus Always To Tyrants is a big one to me, just kinda based around Charlie’s vibe of rebelliousness and going against the grain idk. The Valley also sort of has similar energy so I’m puttin that here too :)

Stephen Meeks:

Hieroglyphs and Rounds both have inexplicable Meeks vibes. also Mandatory Evac / Counting Cars but that one is just an instrumental so I really have no reason to associate it with Meeks lmao

Gerard Pitts:

Theseus. big time. typically Pitts is thought of as a caring / ‘mother hen’ type and I think this song kinda fits the vibes of ‘hey it’s gonna be alright :)’. honestly I associate the entire Zephyrus album with Pitts so ahahha

Richard Cameron:

I Have Made Mistakes, and The Truth is a Cave (I may be a Cameron apologist). all of Through The Deep, Dark Valley has songs that fit his arc very well

Knox Overstreet:

Bitter Water. it’s a banger but also has a slightly darker theme than is presented and I think that canon Knox deserves it honestly :)) canon Knox my abhorred

#i have brainrot #the oh hellos my beloveds #the oh hellos #dead poets society #dps #todd anderson #neil perry #charlie dalton #steven meeks #gerard pitts #richard cameron #knox overstreet

10 fandoms, 10 characters, 10 tags :)

rules: show us your ten favorite characters from ten fandoms and then tag ten people to do the same.

i was tagged by @manonisamelon :) thank you!! i love to do these because it means i get to be extra and slap a filter on some screencaps. and also be opinionated. i was going to do this earlier on mobile, but tumblr started running Super slow and then didn’t save my draft, so here’s take two!

the movies / tv shows aren’t in any particular order, and some of them are kind of random...i evidently don’t watch that many things, so it took me a while to come up with ten LMAO. feel free to give your opinion about my favs in the replies...i’m interested to see if we have any in common or really don’t.

1.) theo raeken - teen wolf i think we all knew this one was going to be first. love u <3 alternate: liam or hayden, probably :)

2.) layla keating - all american i don’t even watch all american anymore because of the way the writers and the fanbase treats her :,( unproblematic but still for whatever reason controversial fav. no one could ever get me to hate her. argue with the wall alternate: asher

3.) jane villanueva - jane the virgin i’ve been re-watching jane the virgin for the third time and i think she’s the only one who i’ve Never had any problems with liking. so sweet and motivated, and even though she’s made some bad decisions (coughcough love triangle coughcough), idc what anybody says, she’s a good mom who does not deserve slander ! alternate: rafael

4.) john murphy - the 100 the 100 was genuinely a terrible show in all honesty, but he + emori made it worth watching through till the end...kind of. he’s the second murdery mf with childhood trauma on this list, but he stopped trying to kill people, so he’s good now :) alternate: emori (let me into ur relationship pls)

5.) alexis rose - schitt’s creek i just think that she was one of the funniest and i love her <3 she literally always had good love interests too. every single relationship was interesting. wish she would’ve gotten her endgame but i like to think she’s doing big things on her own :) alternate: stevie, patrick, david

6.) adam groff - sex education some of you are going to Hate me for this one but like,,, season two was His. love his development and everybody on here knows i’m a slut for redemption arcs so this shouldn’t be a surprise. alternate: eric, maeve, jackson

7.) nick miller - new girl absolute disaster of a man. keeps all of his overdue bills and unfiled paperwork in a shoebox in his closet. in So Much Debt. but he writes books and respects women and i fuckin love him alternate: winston, cece

8.) poe dameron - star wars sequel trilogy hhhhhh. i know that i loved his leadership skills and personality when i was watching the movies, but also i can’t recall anything he actually Did at the moment because i’m too busy looking at him. like. god. not to be horny on main or anything, but.... Whew Sir

9.) lupe - plan b (2021) plan b doesn’t really have a fandom and i’m biased because *victoria moroles* but pls,,, i love her so much. my favorite line of the whole movie came from her - “glad to know you spend your free time thinking about what my pussy looks like, megan” - and i’ve watched the movie twice and cried Both Times at the ending scene with her dad. once again, not to be horny on main, but there is literally No way to deny i like girls too after this movie LMFAOOO alternate: sunny! she and lupe are pretty much equal here, but i’ll take any excuse to talk about victoria, lupe, or hayden hdbfjs

10.) neil perry - dead poets society </3 </3 </3 help me alternate: todd or charlie

okay!! tags!! obviously you don’t have to do the whole thing with the pictures and explanations, i just like to waste my own time </3

@inabottlelikelightning @thecenturiestrickle @frustrateddumbbar @li0nh34rt @curlsinthewind @rosesraeken @idk-ilike5sos @theowhy @edge0fmydesiree @thiamficrecs :)

Hi Z, how are you? ☺️From the chaotic academia asksCan you please answer (if you’d like of course)Black coffee,Athens, Neil Perry, midnight,Blazer,academia,Allen Ginsburg,howl,candle,rose,& book.

Hello my dear anon! I am managing, thank you for asking. How are you? I hope that you’ve been well! Thank you so much for indulging me in these questions, it’s always such a joy to get to chat with you all, I appreciate it a ton!

Black coffee: if you could be with anyone right now, who would it be?

It’s a depressing answer, but my uncle. He is many states away, and not doing well in the hospital. The doctors don’t think that he’s going to make it, and I cannot express how horribly guilty I feel that I can’t see him. It’s one of those things that I think is going to haunt me forever, if he passes away before we have had a chance to see him.

Athens: if you could go anywhere right now, where would you go?

In all honesty, the beach. I miss the beach so so so much.

Neil Perry: if you could revive one character (in a book, movie, TV show, etc), who would it be?

Kylo Ren, so I can kill him the way he should have been killed properly lmao

Midnight: what is your favorite time of day?

In the very small hours of morning, like 5am ish. 5-6am is one of my favorite hours!

Blazer: what is your favorite piece of clothing?

Oh man a dream favorite piece of clothing is that damn strawberry dress! I want one so badly lmao. But a piece of clothing that I currently own that’s absolutely my favorite, is this black & floral off the shoulder dress that I wear almost every day.

Academia: what is your favorite aesthetic (besides academia)?

18th century, 10000%!!!

Allen Ginsberg: who is your favorite poet?

Oh I don’t have an answer for this, I can’t pick just one! Lol sorry to disappoint!

Howl: what is your favorite poem?

I Want A Dyke For President, by Zoe Leonard. A print of it has hung up in my home for as long as I can remember, my moms were gay rights activists in the 80s and 90s, marched on Washington and all that, saw the AIDs quilt too. It’s always struck a cord with me, I can pretty much recite the whole thing from memory.

Candle: if you could pick any time period to live in (for the aesthetic), what would it be?

Either the 18th century or the 70s lol, there is no in between with me!

Rose: what is your favorite flower?

Tulips or trumpet lilies!

Books: where can you most often be found?

In my bedroom, it’s really my sanctuary!

Influences, Autonomy, and Responsibility

(Hoo boy this got long. Also it’s a rambling, disastrous mess but I just kinda... got going. But it’s all... more or less relevant? Probably way more detail than many people care about, lmao I’m sorry.)

Lots of discussion has been going around about Jon the Archivist, and how responsible do we hold him for his actions particularly in MAG 141 and 142? And I want to tell you, this was a SIGNIFICANT point in that tma philosophy thing I was writing a while back (currently stalled indefinitely, sorry, I am what I am). So let me take a nice, hefty chapter out of that and weigh in on the subject.

I saw one or two people compare it to addiction, and that is a very good comparison. Let met explain why: Addiction works by hijacking the reward center of your brain. The reward center is what we have gained through evolution that has kept us alive as a species, rewarding us with dopamine when we do things that keep our species going, such as eating, drinking, or sex. We call these "instincts"; our brain's natural encouragement toward dopamine-seeking behaviors.

When a substance is introduced that artificially releases dopamine, the reward center recognizes this as a new viable source of dopamine, and starts rewiring the brain to seek it out, just as we seek out food or sex. It creates a brand new "instinct" for this new source of dopamine, to seek out the substance. This new instinct, or "craving", is just as real and powerful as your other natural instincts like hunger or thirst.

This, I believe, is very comparable to a person claimed by a power. Trevor Herbert and Daisy described it as a hunger, and Jude Perry said something along those lines as well. Jude also said, "I don't know what it would feel like for you, and itchy eye or something." So there is.... something. Some new instinct implanted in them. An urge; a call to action. Trevor Herbert even said it was stronger than the call of heroin.

So, now that we've related it to addiction, what does that tell us about personal accountability? Well, in my research I came across the article "Addiction, Autonomy, and Informed Consent: On and Off the Garden Path" by Neil Levy. (I'm sorry, I can't find a link that's not behind a pay wall. I don't know where I found it originally. But if you google it, it'll come up.) In it, he discusses the ethics of performing a study with ex-addicts in which the addict is offered their drug of choice. (Keep in mind being an EX-addict is no small feat. It's a lifelong struggle and a journey that includes a lot of tears, pain, and introspection. These people KNOW the price of giving in.)

The very young, very elderly, or otherwise mentally compromised are sometimes said to be unable to give informed consent, due to lack of understanding of the situation or its consequences, or because they are incapable of proper reasoning. So the question is then, does addiction so mentally compromise the brain that an (ex-)addict cannot be said to give informed consent in such a situation as being offered their drug of choice? Surely they have understanding of the situation. And generally they extremely thorough understanding of the consequences, yet many addicts will describe being offered their drug of choice as feeling as if they "can't say no." But, can they truly not? It's very possible to find many cases in which addicts were in such a position, and DID say no. So how literally can it be taken to say that they "can't say no"?

Let's look for a moment at autonomy, or agency. Personal agency is what is deemed to be required to give informed consent. And autonomous action is one that is freely done given conscious consideration to all viable actions, and an autonomous agent is one that is capable of autonomous action. Not all actions of an autonomous agent will be autonomous, however. If you are reading a book and scratch your nose, you may not even realize you scratched your nose. This actions was not autonomous, because although while you were free to do it, you did not make a conscious decision to do so.

And it's not black or white, where an action either is or is not autonomous. Autonomy can be partially taken away to various degrees, whether by mental conditions, intoxication, or conditions that may impair proper cognitive function. Cravings, urges, or our natural instincts can interfere with autonomy. Yes, even something as simple as hunger itself. I made the comparison in my Jon&Daisy fanfic: If you trap a starving man in a room and tell him he only gets food if he drives a nail into the hand of a stranger, how much do you blame him if after a month he decides he can't take starving anymore? In the case, this man does not have full autonomy, as it is being inhibited by his urge to eat.

So how do we determine if an action of an agent is fully autonomous? If an agent has full autonomy, it is believed that that agent will act within their own personal morals. We can say then, if that agent performs an action that is outside of their morals, doing something that they believe is wrong or that they do not want. In the case of the addict, this is saying yes to drugs that they know will take them down a road they do not want to go. In Jon's case, this is believing that submitting innocent bystanders to the terror he inflicts is cruel and he hates himself for it, but he does it anyways.

Ok let’s wrap thing up here; I’m rambling. How much responsibility do these people hold for their actions? The addict, Jon, and Daisy? Well, there is no clear line. Some might say it’s just a matter of willpower, but there are many other factors involved, and it’s not that straight forward. The intensity of the craving, and the mental state of the agent (142 may have been shortly after the mess where he tried to Know Lukas’s plan, leaving him weak and dazed) both play significant parts as well. Intensity of cravings can range from “having the munchies”, to hyperventilating and openly weeping. And if one person doesn’t have quite the same mental fortitude of another person (willpower), does that automatically make them a worse person?

You can never know what another person is going through. And so, I don’t think we can judge Jonathan Sims to be a monster just yet. We can feel sad or scared for him. We can feel disappointed in him. But what would it take for him to truly be a monster? I think that would be when he puts aside his moral; when he no longer has any problem with what he is doing. You might ask, wasn’t he just justifying himself to Basira? Yes, however, I don’t think he was very confident about his reasons. I think he’s scared, himself, and was trying to justify his actions to himself as much as he was to Basira. Because after his conversation with Daisy about how he believed he was too much of a monster to deserve to live, I don’t believe he would flip that fast for no apparent reason. I trust Jonny wouldn’t do that (this isn’t Game of Thrones).

Wow, well thank you for sticking with me through my incredibly long rambling analysis of Jon’s recent behaviors. I was thinking about writing a fic from Jon’s perspective about his own thought process through episodes 141 and 142, but judging by how long it took me to trudge through getting this written, that doesn’t seem likely. Anyways, if you actually read this whole thing, I’d be curious what your thoughts are on it.

#I have not proof read this lmao #I could barely wrangle together the motivation to get it written #so like if there's anything major feel free to point it out #but yeeeeeeh #I've been thinking about this for a loooooong time #really wish I could find you a good link to that article it was really good #tma #the magnus archives #tma meta #my thing #mag 141 #mag 142 #jonthan sims #the archivist

💓 dating neil perry 💓

ok i’ll try to make this one shorter

- you would meet at open auditions for Shakespeare’s “Hamlet”

- you would be next to eachother in line and he would casually start a conversation with you

“Who are you auditioning for?”

“Ophelia, you?”

“Hamlet” he smiled so genuinely and in such a gentle manner while looking deep in your eyes, you were startstuck

- the conversation was flowing perfectly and, when it got to your turn he placed a hand on your shoulder and wished you good luck

- after the audition he went after you outside the theater

“So, how did it go?”

“Pretty well, I think”

“Great, me too! Hope I get to act alongside you, I’m Neil by the way”

“Y/n”

- when the roles were given out you got the role of Ophelia and him the role of Hamlet, you were stoked

- as you were re-reading the paper, over and over again, just to make sure you hadn’t got your name wrong or something dumb like that you heard a familiar voice, making you turn your head

“I got it! I got the role!” a group of friends cheered the boy on, congratulating him, the boy who ended up being that same guy from the audition

- he saw you and walked straight towards you

“Hey, Y/n, right?”

“Yes. Neil?”

“Yup! So, did you get it?”

“Uh-huh” you had a huge smile on your face, he had the same gentle smirk as that day

“Great!” he was going in for a hug but ended up just shaking your hand nervously

- as practice started you finally had the opportunity to get to know him better

- you both shared your love for poetry, life and acting

- he confided in you his most deep thoughts and didn’t do anything without talking to you first

- he invited you to come to the dps meetings, super excited for you to meet the guys, and said to bring a poem if you wanted

- you started attending them regularly, feeling a bit out of place at first, since they were all such good friends, but neil would always make you feel comfortable and would never leave your side

- he would sit down very close to you and whenever he read a poem he would put the paper in the middle of you both

- slowly, he started to show his feelings, from ocassionaly touching hands, making him softly blush, to intertwining fingers tightly

- he treated you like a queen and was very protective and supportive of anything you did

- he wasn’t jealous or possessive, just insecure

- you would help him with that, always letting him know how much you loved him

- your first kiss was fairytale-like

- he called you to the cave at night, saying he needed to speak to you

- it was completely dark and you couldn’t see eachothers faces, somethig relieving to both of you

- he stuttered his words as he was trying to express his feelings

“Y/n... I’ll try to be quick, and I swear I’ll respect any given answer to what I’m about to say”

“Is everything okay, Neil?”

“No, Y/n, it’s not. I-I like you too much, it’s making me crazy. I can’t sleep, I can’t think, I can’t even speak, I’ll say something that’s related to you eventually. I think I l-love you even...

You make me go insane, I like you so much and please go out with me”

- after those same words leave his gorgeous lips you smile softly

“Yes” a simple word, but he could feel the tone and feeling of it and knew you were so happy at that moment

- he released a sonorous laugh and took you by the hand, before taking you to the river that was close by

- he told you to get in, you did without hesitating

- it was a beautiful night and the moon shone down on the water, you couldn’t possibly say no

- he got in right after you and with the lunar light blinding your features he kissed you passionately while cusping your face in his soft hands

- after that day you always came to the river to think and talk for hours

- it was your special spot

- neil only had eyes for you, he loved speaking to you and you would be the first one to hear his most random thoughts

- he didn’t like pda much, he loved holding your hand in public though

- he loved to kiss you when you were both alone, it made him feel like he was truly the only one

- you would always go out with him and the boys, and after a while they became your best friends

- you would both always audition for the same plays and even though sometimes one of you wouldn’t get the role that didn’t stop eachother to practise the lines with one another.

“Focus, Neil, the play’s next week!” you tried to hide a smile, as he looked at you, a smug smirk on his face.

“Screw the play, this is much better” he said stealing kisses from you while you read the lines

- he loved touching you, he could never stop, either be it your hand, your hair, your cheeks, he would never ever not touch you

- he called you only by your nickname or love, he absolutely adored to see the corners of you lips turn up when he whispered any of those words in your ear

- matching rings always!

- writing you poems all the time!!

- he would read them out loud to you by the riverside, mostly at night, as he laid on your lap and you ran your fingers through his hair

- he would always be worried about you and really caring and sensitive, like a cute puppy

- he ended up writing a 5 page text to you once, even then he told you it wasn’t enough to even remotely express what he felt

- one of your many habits was for you to both get on your bikes and ride to the nearest park to watch the sunset every friday

- you felt free, truly free and alive when you were together, it was love

ok this was 2 long again i’m sorry lmao i actually wanted to do more because i love neil sm and even though charlie is my favorite character i identify w/ neil the most

- mia ✨🌹
