It’s always “what is your favorite color?” and never “what are your thoughts on the intensely queer coded relationship of Neil Perry and Todd Anderson in the 1989 film ‘Dead Poets Society’”

[moonagedaydreamsofrhiannon]

Sorry I lied there’s nothing gay about Dead Poets Society. They’re just two straight best friends. No you don’t need to ban it. I was just playing before. There’s no queercoding. I made it all up. You don’t need to censor it. I promise bro. It’s just a nice conservative movie about heterosexual male friendship. I swear bro. Walt Whitman? No, I don’t know him. Never heard of him. Sounds like a nice heterosexual fellow to me. Nothing queer going on here. Anti-establishment? I don’t know what you mean. There’s nothing anti-establishment here. The progressive teacher got fired in the end, remember? If anything it’s pro-establishment. No, no, I swear. It’s practically republican propaganda. I swear bro. You don’t need to ban it. C’mon man. Let’s be reasonable. There’s no need to be hasty. The theater kid died, remember? Remember? There’s nothing to worry about bro. I swear on my life bro. You don’t need to ban it bro I swear.

Neil grinned as he handed Todd's poem back to him. "You're really good at writing. So good. I like a person like that."

Todd's eyes twinkled. "Yeah?" he asked, hopefully.

Neil nodded. "You know, if you were a girl, I'd marry you," he said casually. "Because we get along well, encourage each other to keep going, and we could save money by doing that."

Todd stared at him. Neil brought up the "if you were a girl" a lot, but Todd always thought to himself, "You don't need to be a girl. I love you as a boy." But he knew he couldn't say that.

Instead, Todd just scoffed and said that Neil would have to do the cooking and laundry. Todd offered to clean the house and do dishes, so it evened out.

If you were a girl, I would marry you. Those words always played in his head.

But now, as he clawed at the dirt of Neil's grave, only one sentence echoed back- a reply to what Neil had said months before: If you were alive, I'd marry you.

The other poets shipping Neil and Todd:

Just this entire scene, trying to be there for Todd while he’s grieving. Charlie saying “leave him be” is making me want to jump out of a window. Also, when Todd says “It’s so beautiful” idk why but I feel like he’s talking abt Neil OR he’s prob getting flash backs to that one deleted scene. I’m prob just being stupid tho.

Mr. Keating looking at Todd while Neil is giving his performance. He just knew tbh. Mr Keating Supremacy 🛐 Todd was also mouthing all the lines during this scene which just makes my heart explode every time.

Meeks looking over to these two while Knox was being a little simp for Chris. I keep seeing everyone make Charlie the #1 anderperry shipper, I personally do not agree w this 😭. Meeks would def the officiant at their wedding. (Neil didn’t die wtaf are you on.)

Not a shipping moment, but I just wanna say that no one in this fandom can tell me that Todd wasn’t making sure he looked good for Neil. HE WAS.

for longer than

i have known you.”

(c.c. aurel)

[sweaty-toothed-mad-woman]

“are you ok?” let me ask you this: is Neil Perry alive and happy and married to Todd and pursuing his dream of acting? because the answer to those two questions is the same.

[moonagedaydreamsofrhiannon]

my 79 year old english teacher just came out to me as bisexual and i am so aghast i can’t tell anyone bc i don’t wanna out him but i NEED TO TALK ABOUT THIS

i was talking about dead poets society and walt whitman and then he just says “you know i had a gay lover when i was younger and we drove across europe together on the back of a motorcycle” EXCUSE ME??????????

[your-stranger-halfblood-things]

Todd does this thing where he tapes small bits of his poetry onto Neil's grave to let him know that he's still thinking about him
