Things My Best Friend and I Say as DPS Boys (Part 2)

you guys seemed to really like the last one! so here’s some more shenanigans courtesy of my best friend (plus some other friends) and i!

once again- warning for filthy and crude humour- it’s just- yeah—

part 1!

Neil: “when de moon”

Todd: “hits your eyes”

Neil: “. . .pizza”

Todd: “what?”

Neil: “that’s amore!”

Knox: “don’t do cancer, that shit kills you.”

Meeks: “i said something misogynistic. i’m gonna stand in the corner and think about my actions.”

[note: he did stand in the corner.]

Todd: “i fucking love music. whoever made that shit-? i’m about to- fucking make out with them.”

Charlie: “i am not misogynistic i do not know how to do . . . massages.”

Neil: “if oppenheimer makes a good song he’s boppenheimer.”

Charlie: “if oppenheimer works for law enforcement he’s coppenheimer.”

Todd: “okay, i think these jokes are getting a little to stale. i think it’s time to stoppenheimer.”

Charlie: “you are an std on the dick of society.”

Neil: “it’s enough to make a grown man cr— i am crying!”

Pitts: “what the fuck is sOOShi?”

Meeks: “this is an aspen tree. you can tell it’s an aspen tree because of the way that it is.”

Todd: [in denial] “you do— meth amphetamines.”

Charlie: [eats tiny microphone] “MM—”

Neil and Charlie: [in unison] “when- when you- when— whEEEN- wHEN YOU—”

Todd in any reaction to a small animal: [in bad Russian accent] “OH MY GOD! LITTOL GUY.”

Neil quoting Unus Annus: “who’s a big boy?”

Charlie finishing it: “i’m about to be—“

Cameron: “why are you over-minding your business, BITCH?”

Charlie: [acts like he tripped] “oh, fuck!” [starts twerking]

Neil after being called out: “that’s not funny.”

[jeiceys-dead-poets-hcs]

jeicey <3

[jeiceys-dead-poets-hcs]

lol i did it by the way here you go- both spotify and youtube

youtube - singing cave songs with the dead poets

spotify - singing cave songs with the dead poets

imagine the boys just gathering around at the cave to sing songs and stuff. like maybe they bring along a guitar or a ukulele and one of them just grabs it and plays whatever comes to mind.

i have this vivid image whenever i listen to hidden in the sand by tally hall

like i just see todd playing and singing it while the rest of the guys do the backing vocals. maybe charlie snaps to keep the best going steady

OMG EVEN WHITE WINTER HYMNAL

brb making a playlist now

[jeiceys-dead-poets-hcs]

crying thinking about neil and todd harmonizing hozier songs together

thought of this while listening to “like real people do” and this just in: i can’t do this anymore

[jeiceys-dead-poets-hcs]

THIS IS WHAT I’VE BEEN SAYIN

Neil would be an ABBA fan and he would sing 'Dancing Queen' in Todd's face while trying to get Todd to dance with him >>

[jeiceys-dead-poets-hcs]

Things my Best Friend and I say as DPS boys:

kind of crude humour and swear warning i guess? all of this is satire and taken (mostly) out of context

nothing is genuinely meant we both are just unmedicated when we hangout.

Todd: “my house, my rules. fuck the gays.”

Neil: “live, laugh, lobotomy! i need to be put down-”

Todd: “is it because you’re ableist, [charlie?]”

Charlie: “happy pride month! god is trying to kill us!”

Meeks while mixing dye: “i got too trigger happy and fucking cocained all over the counter-“

Neil in any minor inconvenience: “my brother in christ-“

Charlie: “is one horse a whore? wait no hear me out—”

Knox: “[insert any word ending in an e r] i hardly know her!”

Neil: “i’m gonna silly little hyperfixate myself off a cliff.”

Cameron: “you look like a cricket.”

Charlie itching his leg with his foot: “you look like a bitch.”

Todd telling somebody to not do something: “do not the cat.”

Meeks eating ramen: “my mouth has 5 horsepower i can’t suck any harder-“

Neil road rage: “i am 150,000 snails in a trench coat and you are one man, and you can’t even drive!”

Charlie: “i fuck with vegetable jesus.”

Charlie: “it’s hard being funny with a fat ass.”

Todd: “me and him? we’re gonna kiss.”

Neil: “i’m gonna use you to practice taxidermy.”

Todd: “god can never grant me one moment of peace—”

i promise we are- fine. we just become unhinged together and it results in out of context crap like this

more to come if wanted :)

part 2!

[jeiceys-dead-poets-hcs]

get better by alt-j is anderperry and i do not have to elaborate just listen to it

if somebody actually wrote something based off of this i’d fucken- omg

[jeiceys-dead-poets-hcs]

hey! i’m finally back after a few busy months. now that i’m finished up with dance and just have to prepare for grad, i should have a lot more time on my hands to write again!

please if you have any suggestions i’d love to hear them!

thanks for the patience <333

~jeicey

[jeiceys-dead-poets-hcs]

not gonna do any of it in cursive though- last time i had to do that was in like grade 6 when my teachers still cared abt that stuff-

i’m interested for the results!

it’s like- kinda messy but dw about it i was writing it in my new binder on my lap-

Songs by my Favourite Band That I Would Assign The Dead Poets.

so if you couldn’t tell by the cover photo, my favourite band is Twenty One Pilots. They’ve been my favourite band ever since around 2014, and I plan on getting a tattoo related to them soon!

knowing most songs quite well, i decided i’d relate songs to our lovely poets!

please enjoy! i’ll link the full songs as well!

also- might have to make a part 2. the possibilities are running through my brain!

Neil Perry:

Anathema.

Neal is a person who keeps all of his struggles internalized. We never witness him talk about any of his struggles until his breaking point when he is no longer allowed to pursue acting.

Which is why I find the first few sets of lyrics very fitting, because in reality, it seems only Todd had a slight idea of what was happening. Even then, that could be pushing it.

I feel this song encapsulates Neal’s worries and how they all eventually add up, and suddenly disappear.

No I’m not crying stfu.

key lyrics!:

And you will never know (won't you go to someone else's dreams)

What I'm thinking of

So won't you say goodnight (won't you go to someone else's head)

So I can say goodbye

And you will never understand (haven't you taken enough from me)

What I believe

So won't you say goodnight (won't you torture someone else's sleep?)

So I can say goodbye

I start to part two halves of my heart in the dark and I

Don't know where I should go

And the tears and the fears begin to multiply

Taking time in a simple place

In my bed where my head rests on a pillowcase

And it's said that a war's lead but I forget

That I let another day go by

I want to be afraid but it seems that these days

I'm caught under water and I'm falling farther

My heart's getting harder, I'm calling my father

Am I screaming to an empty sky?

Empty sky, no way, that's me

'Cause one half of my heart is free

Empty sky, no way, that's me

'Cause the other half of my heart's asleep

Todd Anderson:

Forest.

This song is one of their more heavier pieces in terms of poetry. All of the lyrics are symbolic, intuitive.

It talks about how our brains travel to the darker side of thoughts the more you think about it, and the longer you look at things.

I just think this song really captures some dreadful thoughts in Todd’s brain, but in his more classic, poetic styles.

This song is one of my favourites :)

key lyrics!:

My brain has given up

White flags are hoisted

I took some food for thought

It might be poisoned

The stomach in my brain

Throws up on to the page

Does it bother anyone else

That someone else has your name?

I don't understand why everything I adore

Takes a different form when I squint my eyes

Have you ever done that?

When you squint your eyes?

And your eyelashes make it look a little not right?

And then when just enough light

Comes from just the right side

And you find you're not who you're suppose to be?

This is not what you're suppose to see

Please, remember me? I am suppose to be

King of a kingdom or swinging on a swing

Something happened to my imagination

This situation's becoming dire

My treehouse is on fire

And for some reason I smell gas on my hands

This is not what I had planned

This is not what I had planned

Charlie Dalton:

My Blood.

This song to me represents absolute loyalty to your friends and family. We’ve had no shortage of Charlie always looking out for the Dead Poets and avenging Neal after his death.

I always think about my closest friends when listening to this song, so I felt it was only right. I think it’ll make more sense in the key lyrics.

They have my whole heart your honour.

key lyrics!:

When everyone

You thought you knew

Deserts your fight

I'll go with you

You're facing down

A dark hall

I'll grab my light

And go with you

When choices end

You must defend

I'll grab my bat

And go with you

Stay with me

No, you don't need to run

Stay with me, my blood

You don't need to run

If there comes a day

People posted up at the end of your driveway

They're calling for your head and they're calling for your name

I'll bomb down on them, I'm coming through

Do they know I was grown with you?

If they're here to smoke, know I'll go with you

Just keep it outside, keep it outside, yeah

If you find yourself

In a lion's den

I'll jump right in

And pull my pin

And go with you

Steven Meeks:

Guns for Hands.

I feel like he also holds deep concern for all of his friends. Maybe not as outright and stubborn as Charlie, but he has a good head on his shoulders when it comes to his friends.

He seems like the type of friend to divert and distract rather than take the problem on full-throttle. He may be able to listen, but he gets scared when giving advice. His worry still haunts his mind, though.

It also just has his boppin kinda energy that I think he just radiates. Sunny man.

IM TRYIN IM TRYIN TO SLEEEP

sorry

key lyrics!:

I know what you think in the morning

When the sun shines on the ground

And shows what you have done

It shows where your mind has gone

And you swear to your parents

That it will never happen again

I know, I know what that means

I know

That you all have guns

And you never put the safety on

And you all have plans

To take it, to take it

Don't take it, take it, take it

I'm trying, I'm trying to sleep

I'm trying, I'm trying to sleep

But I can't, but I can't, when you all have

Guns for hands, yeah

Let's take this a second at a time

Let's take this one song, this one rhyme

Together, let's breathe

Together, to the beat

But there's hope out the window

So that's where we'll go

Let's go outside and all join hands

But until then you'll never understand

Gerard Pitts:

House of Gold.

This is just a really sweet song for a really sweet man <33

He’d introduce it to the poets and they sing it during meetings sometimes. It never fails to bring a smile to his face.

I also feel he loves it because he’s very loyal to his family. His mother, to be specific. A momma’s boy in secret, but also not really in secret.

key lyrics!:

She asked me, son, when I grow old

Will you buy me a house of gold

And when your father turns to stone

Will you take care of me

I will make you

Queen of everything you see

I'll put you on the map

I'll cure you of disease

Let's say we up and left this town

And turned our future upside-down

We'll make pretend that you and me

Lived ever after, happily

And since we know that dreams are dead

And life turns plans up on their head

I will plan to be a bum

So I just might become someone

Richard Cameron:

March to the Sea.

This song reminds me a lot of conformity. How we’re all just mindlessly walking to an endpoint, sometimes with no inspiration or desire to be free or do something different.

We know he is all about conformity.

I like to think Cameron is conflicted with following rules, but he falls under the pressure of his authority figures to actually be free.

key lyrics!:

There's miles of land in front of us

And we're dying with every step we take

We're dying with every breath we make

And I'll fall in line

A stranger's back is all I see

He's only a few feet in front of me

And I'll look left and right sometimes

But I'll fall in line

And as we near the end of land

And our ocean graves are just beyond the sand

I ask myself the question

Why I fall in line

Then out of the corner of my eye

I see a spaceship in the sky

And hear a voice inside my head

Follow me instead

Then the wages of war will start

Inside my head with my counterpart

And the emotionless marchers will chant the phrase

"This line's the only way"

And then I start down the sand

My eyes are focused on the end of land

But again, the voice inside my head says

Follow me instead

Take me up, seal the door

I don't want to march here anymore

I realize that this line is dead

So I'll follow you instead

So then you put me back in my place

So I might start another day

And once again, I will be in a march to the sea

Knox Overstreet:

Tear in my Heart.

Could really only think of this one because it seems like his only personality trait is being creepily in love

Sorry not sorry

The lyrics just show the hopeless devotion and vulnerability to somebody you love. Tyler Joseph had wrote this for his wife, Jenna :)

key lyrics!:

Sometimes you gotta bleed to know

That you're alive and have a soul

But it takes someone to come around

To show you how

She's the tear in my heart

I'm alive

She's the tear in my heart

I'm on fire

She's the tear in my heart

Take me higher

Than I've ever been

My heart is my armour

She's the tear in my heart

She's a carver

She's a butcher with a smile

Cut me farther

Than I've ever been

[jeiceys-dead-poets-hcs]

HELLO

i am so sorry for the inactivity! i’m currently in my finals era and i’m so exhausted

here’s another incorrect quote based off of my friends

Charlie: you wanna hear my pick up line? it’s really good!

Neil: [choking on water]

Charlie: See? Neil’s laughing because of how good it is!

Neil: No- I’m dying at you mentioning it—

[jeiceys-dead-poets-hcs]

genuine question- would you guys be interested in having a “dps but unus annus quotes” series? i feel like it would be fun to write, but i don’t know who would all be interested.

[jeiceys-dead-poets-hcs]

Dead Poets Dance Au

Pt. 2; Neil Perry

welcome to part two! i’m actually really excited to write about neil, so we’ll see how it goes!

His strong-suits, when it comes to specific types of dance, are jazz and (obviously)musical theatre.

Neil our little star <3

His stamina tops the rest of his group. Always giving 110%, even if he feels his lungs may collapse to his stomach and his heart may explode out of his chest.

His energy??? Top tier. Always one of the first comments on an adjudicator’s sheet at competitions.

He improvises, but not as well as Todd. He more just- does because he has to, rather than willingly(improv sucks and I hate it).

Him and Todd? Partners for everything. Acro lifts, duets, inseparable until their days are done. Whenever there’s different tricks in group dances, they’re always paired up doing the same tricks on different sides.

Since Neil is left-handed, his tricks are probably all best on his left, too.

Because of his height, Neil makes a strong base/lifter in any lifts. Which he doesn’t mind, getting picked up sounds more scary to him than anything.

Gets yelled at by Todd whenever chickening out of tricks, but lovingly; or so he says…

“WHAT ARE YOU DOING?”

“MY HEAD WAS TOO CLOSE TO THE GROUND!”

“YOU WERE LIKE TWO FEET OFF THE FLOOR. GO AGAIN.”

“rAAAAGhh. fINE dAd.”

Always the first to say he doesn’t like a song or costume, but never usually the most picky. Most of the group just kinda goes what he says, they just wait for him to say it first.

Always gives his teammates hugs after performing and if they win awards.

Like Todd, he’s so upset when he graduates and has to say goodbye. Probably cries during his friends’ speeches and is a mess for his own (but he probably comes back whenever he’s in town and helps choreograph).

Always cracking some sort of joint. He’s always stiff before he stretches to dance.

This man can PERFORM, he’s an actor, after all.

Always dominates in his solo categories. Competitors always double take when they see him backstage, but he’s humble and kind to them, nonetheless :)

His TURNS. Lord have mercy, this man turns like a top. He can go on forever and do pretty much any combo asked of him.

Makes weird noises when doing tricks or messing up things in practice.

Sings stupidly to whatever song is blaring over the speakers.

Always makes funny movements backstage to get the nerves out of his teammates. Mans is another person in the curtain wings.

Gets playfully picked on for his height, along with Pitts. Makes formations hard sometimes.

When he messes up a trick, he usually flops on the floor and just admits defeat.

“Neil, get up and try again, dude.”

“No, I’ve died.”

Usually gets hysterical for no reason if he lays on his back on the floor. It makes for some interesting contemporary exercises intended to be peaceful. Meanwhile you got chuckles going off in the corner.

Yes, it becomes infectious.

He genuinely loves all of his friends and teachers at the studio, they’re like his second family. Whatever he learns from there, he takes with him for the rest of his life.

His musical theatre choreography is always so good. He loves choreographing big group productions with his whole studio.

His expressions are always the best. His signature one is giving a lil’ wink.

Bro makes singing and dancing look way too easy.

hi, me again. it was bugging me where i got the nickname “chuckles” and then remembered when it finally came up in an unus annus clip compilation. enjoy free content!
