    Summary

    Izuku is only going by the old farm to welcome the person who just moved in because he's the mayor's son. Not because he's curious about them. Not at all.

    (Okay, he definitely is curious, but nobody needs to know that.)

    Summary

    “I, I think—” she rubs her eyes. Yoba, why was this so hard? “—I think I’m gay, Em.”

    The silence that follows feels like a brick to Haley’s heart.

    Suddenly she’s twelve again, small and fragile, burdened by feelings she can’t even understand. She’s about to run off to her room when suddenly Emily’s arms wrap around her, bringing her head to her sister's chest.

    (or, the farmer makes haley realize that maybe she's not as straight as she thought)

    Summary

    Once Neil gets to about page 6 when looking over his play, he feels his eyebrows furrow. Now, obviously since the play was about the Poets as a whole, there wasn’t really a main character. There would be a more prominent character in each given scene, but Neil made sure to avoid making himself the one who narrated and directed the entire story.

    But once he was about halfway through rereading what he had so far, he realized that every character more or less revolved around one Poet in particular. Every scene managed to include the character, there were always in-depth descriptions of what he and his facial expressions looked like, and everyone either went to him for help or obviously valued his opinion highly.

    Neil had named the character William, and he was realizing now that he had included a surprising amount of descriptions about this character’s blond hair, blue eyes, and unassuming but devout personality.

    Oh shit, Neil thinks to himself, I accidentally made Todd the main character.

    Or in which it's 1960, the Poets' senior year at Welton, and Neil's writing a secret play, his magnum opus, but there's just one problem: Todd keeps getting in the way.

    Summary

    “No reason,” Neil bluffs. He chews on his cheek. “I just had a question. That’s all.”
    “Oh,” Todd replies, a little mumbled. He yawns. “What was it?”
    Neil stares up at the ceiling. Carpe diem, and all that, he thinks. The sentiment feels a little too large to carry.
    He asks, “Have you ever been in love?”

    Neil auditions for a play, accidentally reads a poem, and falls in love – not necessarily in that order.
