#Richard cameron

[chameleon3]

had a stroke of inspiration

[numberonejameswilsonfan]

pitts and meeks would have loved listening to dreams by fleetwood mac together

neil and todd would have loved listening to blackbird by the beatles together

knox and charlie would have loved listening to elevator man by oingo boingo together

and cameron would have loved listening to everywhere by fleetwood mac with his cat <3

EVEN MORE Random Dead Poets Headcanons

i’m jonesin for some dead poets content real bad without putting myself through the tragedy that is the movie so why not create the content myself

while neil as an only child makes so much sense, i can see him having a little sister, who he loves very much. he’s very protective over her and is the best big brother in the world :,)

i feel like we should also get into the family numbers for each poets cause except for todd, no one mentions having siblings but i feel like with maybe the exception of cameron and charlie, none of them are only children

pitts: only boy in a family full of girls. he has three sisters.

meeks: a nutty nutty part of me wants to say meeks was a twin but then he absorbed his twin in the womb. imagine two meeks’. crazy.

knox: he has an older sister. i see her being engaged or married by the time knox is a junior in high school

meeks likes to sit outside when he gets stressed. as technology focused as he is, getting back in touch with nature (or quite literally, touching grass) is incredibly important to him

charlie is a grandma’s boy . her name is carol and shes the coolest lady alive in charlie’s eyes. she chainsmokes, drinks tough, and spoils him rotten (carol has lore, she has been around the BLOCK)

meeks has an eccentric pet situation at home. he’s got a turtle, two gerbils, a lizard, a ferret, five fish, and a guinea pig. they’re all named after important scientists and/or historical figures.

^^the turtle’s name is darwin, the lizard is newton (HA), the guinea pig is pavlov (meeks doesnt have a dog but since the dogs WERE the guinea pigs in that experiment, he feels that’s close enough), the ferret is faraday, the gerbils are marie and pierre curie, and the fish are einstein, franklin, galileo, copernicus, and kepler. fucking nerd (affectionate)

pitts is a comic book nerd. anytime welton students are allowed free time off campus, he goes straight to wherever he can find the comics. i think he’s a marvel comics nerd (which at that time was known as atlas comics, fun fact. it became known as marvel comics in 1961)

charlie and neil had planned to travel across the world after graduation. they were gonna go backpacking in the mountains in switzerland, smoke in french clubs, drink italian wine, the lot. charlie abandons these specific plans after neil’s death but travels around the world whenever he can

i dont think cameron let himself really be happy after the events of junior year. he’s the type of person who expects something bad to happen after a long streak of happiness. so he never lets his guard down like that again. he knows what he did alienated the rest of the group and it really does hurt him but he doesn’t let it show

neil has a cat. he has a proper name but like any reasonable cat owner, he calls him anything but. the nicknames range from sweet things like “little man” to crazy things like “stinky rat bastard” somebody give this cat a government name (i couldnt think of anything, naming meeks’ pets took all my brain power)

pitts has the miraculous ability to fall asleep anywhere. classroom? sleeping. cafeteria? dead to the world. a really noisy restaurant? he’s honk shooing.

neil and todd both wear mouth guards to sleep. todd is a teeth grinder and neil’s jaw doesn’t sit right when he lays in bed (i am projecting on neil as i am currently lying in bed with a mouth guard for my jaw)

meeks is really into gladiators. like he knows everything about them.

charlie makes fun of people who sleep with their socks on. cameron sleeps with his socks on.

knox talks in his sleep. its actually quite frightening.

“no, get out of the corner.” “knox. who is in this corner.”

pitts’ lips are always bleeding cause he’s always chewing the skin off of them. he’s a lip biter who always loses chapstick too.

todd had a lisp growing up

out of all of them, knox is the best kisser. the worst? its a tie between meeks and cameron.

okay i ran out of ideas enjoy

[ironsilly]

i don't exactly like cameron but whatever, he's a conditioned kid, and i blame knox's shitty behaviour to the way romances were written at the time (most romantic films are now understood as creepy, i mean i.e. love actually is recognized as one of the most beloved rom-coms and if i remember correctly every single couple in it is at least a bit creepy, and it's from 2003)(i'm not saying there weren't well-written romances, i'm saying a lot of them sucked or were questionable), i think the idea was to make him fit into the "lover boy" archetype but they wrote him like that because that was how people (mostly men) understood romance

imho the only irredeemable character is fucking thomas perry

i wish some of the dead poets fandom would direct as much hate as they give to cameron to other characters who need it like overstreet, who literally only got the “girl of his dreams” because he relentlessly harassed her until she gave up and went out with him

[jackdoesstuff]

anyone wanna form a real online dead poets society? we all voice chat together, and we read the opening thing, and we all read poems together and become a group. who wants that? i’m willing to make a discord server
