“Ah, Mr. Anderson,” Mr. Keating says, “do you expect us to believe you’re the only student in Hellton history who sleeps well under that crushing weight of impossible expectations?”
Pretty much, Todd wants to say. Behind him, Neil sighs.

Neil Perry is not, in fact, a very talented poet. It is rather intimidating to find out that his roommate is.

Summary
The moment Mr. Keating tells them about the Dead Poets' Society, something hard knots low in Todd's stomach. He's never been good with clubs or societies, with things that require you to formally spend time with others. Sucking the marrow out of life sounds like the sort of thing they've been doing already, even if Mr. Keating is probably referring to something more dramatic (better) than what they've been doing in class. But words dripped from our tongues like honey sounds kind of intimidating, and Gods were created sounds like the kind of thing Todd ought to just avoid entirely.

Summary
Professor Keating was aware of just how special his connection with his students was. He knew they saw him not only as a teacher but also a mentor, and he tried his best to rise up to the task. He knew he was out of his depth, however, when a pair of his best students confessed to him what they felt for each other.
This, he was not equipped to handle. He could only keep their secrets and hope.
Or, alternatively: Todd and Neil come out to Keating and try to make sense of their feelings for each other

Summary

Summary
He remembers when Charlie asked. He'd tried to make light of it, a teasing "Drugs, Anderson? And you're not even sharing?"
Cameron still hasn't said anything, clearly curious but trying to be polite. Knox and Pitts smile warmly when they see him taking them. Meeks once raised an identical pill and said "cheers", which was cool in a weird sort of way.
Todd tells them all the same thing; "It's just medicine I have to take." Neil's the only one who hasn't asked yet.
Or, Neil and Todd both take pills.
Title taken from My Life Sucks by Scotty Sire.

Summary
‘Todd stood in front of Mr. Nolan’s desk, dread coursing through his veins like his own blood, which ran cold as soon as he spotted the notebook.
“This is yours, is it not?” Mr. Nolan snapped, and Todd flinched, fear drowning his mind.
“Y-yes.” Todd stammered, looking at the notebook in horror. His notebook of poetry. Poetry that he had written, poetry about that boy. Poetry about Neil.’
