i had a vision,,, asexual dps fans what do we think
it's a lifestyle
dead poets' society modern(ish) headcanons
Most of these are school related because I'm going back to college next week. (most of these are things my friends or I have done.)
Todd:
has definitely written fanfiction for his creative writing assignments in English.
definitely has a semi-popular poetry account on TikTok/tumblr
Enters his poetry/writing into competitions and stuff when he gets a little bit more confident
Loved by the dinner ladies
Eats the most heinous food combinations like beacon and fish finger sandwiches, just the most questionable foods.
Neil:
Has walked into the set during a show because he had to perform without his glasses.
His drama teacher's favourite student.
Most popular boy in the class
On the school newspaper
Kissed Todd for the first time during the intermission of one of his plays and was so flustered after he almost missed his cue.
Charlie:
Banned from the library
Ran against Cameron for school council/class president (they tied.)
Him and Cameron actively hate each other but outright refuse to be separated from each other.
Has been kicked out of Assembly multiple times.
Music is his best subject
Banned from giving people dares in truth or dare
Cameron
Debate team captain
On the track team
The kid teachers sit bad students next to, in hopes they behave.
He was sat next to Charlie in every lesson in year nine for that exact reason.
This quickly changed when Charlie started to influence Cameron instead of the other way round.
Goes to homework club.
Meeks
Almost flooded his bathroom after trying to see if he could use oil to plug his sink.
Can’t swim but can hold his breath underwater for 2 minutes
Hates sand
Taught himself and Pitts morse code.
Gets really competitive during kahoot
Loves halloween, plans his and Pitts duo costumes months in advance.
Pitts
Freakishly good at table tennis
Can solve a rubix cube in under a minute
Top set for science
Double jointed
Always being asked to help teachers get things because he's the tallest in his year.
Terrible at Geography, like could not locate Canada on a map to save his life.
Knox
Broke his arm doing a cartwheel for a dare.
Can’t tell the difference between admiration and romantic interest for the life of him
Fully had a crush on Charlie in year ten but just thought he REALLY wanted to be his friend.
Plays football
He tried out for rugby to impress Chris, it did NOT go well.
Gets detention for riding his bike to school without a helmet.
leave a ship or fandom suggestions and I’ll do headcanons for them if you want :)

Click to see the photos better (I wish I could have scanned)
Here's some more
Some more stills from the DPS picture book, click to see the photos better (I wish I could have scanned them 😭)
Here's the first part
Pitt’s and Meeks are obviously the music nerds, but Todd would be the guy who religiously listens to the most underground (european) artists and then be surprised that they aren’t international superstars.
Why are there like two shows with Intp Main Characters? Where are my Intp‘s I can relate to and build my whole personality around?
Unedited outtakes, took place right after the play and Neil's death. Just filled me with pure fuking pain
simp diagram
i like how you can clearly see i have daddy issues. we basically eradicated the whole venn diagram @mxbrahms i forgot to add a good amount of people
here's a random theory i have about dead poets society.
when keating breaks down at the end of the movie after seeing the 1st page of that book, that is because it reminded him of the time when he was a boy and was part of the dead poets. what more could have happened was that neil's death had reminded him of one of his friends who had also killed himself at that time.
after opening the book, he saw the text written by his friend who had died back then and that made him realize the parallel between then and now.
