Summary
The Dead Poets deal with the aftermath of Neil’s attempt, as Cameron and the administration blame Keating. Meanwhile, Knox is on the rebound, Charlie is pining, Neil and Todd are being oblivious and everyone’s favourite nerds are trying to get both couples together.
This fic mainly centres on Anderperry and Knarlie but I won’t forget the other poets! McKeating and Chris x Ginny are briefly mentioned too!
Frequent strong language is used, and there are mentions of suicide/self harm but I’ll try to make these parts skippable. It’s no worse than what you saw in the movie anyway<3

Summary
The story of Hester and Anadil, starting from that one small campfire moment that totally deserved to have it's own full scene. Set from Quests For Glory onwards, but probably with some flashbacks because there was definitely something going on in TLEA between them.

Summary
A few months ago, Neil would have given up. If his father had taken everything he cared about from him, he would have gone to his father's study and unlocked that drawer and taken out the gun. But he was taught by John Keating for almost an entire term, and if there's one thing he learned, it's Carpe Diem - seize the day. LIVE the day.
Neil doesn't give up, because you can't seize the day when you're dead, and sometimes rash decisions are the best decisions. He's not going to let his father take everything he cares about away, not acting, not the poets, and so Neil grabs everything that might be of use and steals his father's car. But back at Welton, he discovers that not only does everyone think he's dead, but Todd - soft, innocent, kind, oblivious Todd, who has no clue what he means to Neil - is hurt - and he won't wake up.

Summary
"You are the last man in the world whom I could ever be prevailed upon to marry!”
Charlie glared up at him. Knox exhaled heavily through his nose. Charlie felt a strange swelling urge to move forward. Knox’s face angled down slightly. There was a long, charged moment.
“I believe you have said quite enough, sir,” Knox said lowly, almost a whisper, yet it seemed so impossibly loud with the closeness of Charlie’s face to his.
