#Todd is dying so Jeff shows up at the hospital and Neil is waiting by Todd’s bed and that’s the first time they actually meet and they are#talking and Jeff is learning about Todd and everything that’s happened since welton because Todd went no contact with his family after#leaving welton and went off to become a poet/writer which his parents obviously didn’t approve of so Todd left and never contacted any of#them ever again and so Jeff hasn’t heard from Todd in years and their parents didn’t come but Jeff did cause that’s his brother and Jeff is#asking questions and Neil is answering like ‘I was Todd’s roommate at welton’ and ‘we’ve lived together after Welton both leaving home’ and#‘I’m an actor and Todd’s a writer; he’s put out a few books; we have copies in our apartment if you want me to bring them for you to read’#and Jeff would buy Neil coffee despite Neil insisting he can pay because Jeff wanted to do something as a thank you and it’s not much but#it’s something for being there for his younger brother and as they are drinking their coffee and talking two doctors are in the background#one with a cane and the other looks oddly like Neil but that’s unrelated and Neil is like ‘do you have somewhere to sleep? you can stay in#our apartment’ and Jeff is like ‘I wouldn’t want to impose’ and Neil is like ‘no no you’re family and besides it’ll be lonely if it’s just#me there so you’d be doing me a favor’ and so Jeff agrees and like he drops Jeff off at the apartment to sleep off the jetlag and he goes#back with Todd and Jeff is just looking at the things in the apartment; the life of the brother he barely knew anymore; and Neil doesn’t#come back until visiting hours are over; until they practically kick him out; but they spend the whole night telling stories; bridging the#separate Todd’s they both new to create this fuller picture of a man they both wished was there still and not dying in a hospital bed#and after Todd dies Jeff still tries to incorporate Neil into the family; he includes Neil because Neil was Todd’s family and that makes#him an Anderson even if Todd is gone so like Neil and Jeff have this weird brotherly bond even if they aren’t actual brothers#dead poets society#dps#dead poets fandom#dps fandom#neil perry#todd anderson#jeff anderson#jeffrey anderson#anderperry
