yknow they really are very similar

Hello ChrisGinny enjoyers I decided to doodle the lesbians :)

[merp-blerp]

Honestly, it's bothering and saddening me to see how pretentious some people in the DPS fandom are being because of an album title. The Tortured Poets Department isn't even out yet, calm down. It might not even be that inspired by DPS, the titles might just sound similar. There are already swifties here. Exhibit a: me. A good majority of DPS edits I see are to/inspired by a Taylor Swift song (or a song by The Smiths). Let's be happy some new people will potentially join us (I haven't even seen swifties enter the DPS fandom in mass droves like some of you are acting has happened) and possibly be introduced to some queer themes DPS has to offer (some of those are in Tay's music too btw, on purpose or not). [Edit: I initially left this fact out of this post, but in hindsight, I think it's important to remember that DPS is not textually queer and all its subtext very well might be accidental. That doesn't mean that it's not there or doesn't matter. I totally believe it does; author's intent matters, but so does interpretation. As long as you have textual evidence that some kind of subtext is present, you can't/shouldn't be told you're wrong. But it's not purely a queer movie. Therefore, DPS is not a "queers only" thing; not even a lot of textually queer movies are "queer only". The movie was made for all kinds of audiences, including straight people.] And I'm not always super knowledgeable on these things… but everyone being worried about “straight white girls in my fandom😩” feels somewhat misogynistic. As in, it reminds me of James Somerton making up white women in his comments section to be mad at. Some of you are making up stupid white girl swifties to be mad at. We already enjoy things like looking into poetry, just like you all. Let's not act like Folklore and Evermore don't exist, which are also poetry-inspired albums. There's honestly already some commonality with the fandoms, which is probably why both appeal to me. But even if there weren't, that shouldn't be why people can't like a movie and enter online spaces where people talk about said movie. And not all swifties are straight white girls. Once again, exhibit a: me. I'm not straight or white, but I am a girl. It just really sucks to see, especially since this movie is all about not being so stuck up and stuffy like the teachers at Welton or Neil's father. This movie's against the toxic academia some of you are seemingly pushing.

[toddtakefive]

do you have anderperry and/or dps headcanons you feel very strongly about?

OH BOY DO I EVER!!!!!

- Neil’s favorite thing to do is come up behind Todd and hug him and just… stay there for any period of time. From anywhere between a minute and the rest of the time they’re in a given place. Todd never comments on it, Neil never explains, it’s just a thing.

- Todd always stands on Neil’s right and vice versa Neil always stands on Todd’s left. If it’s the other way around, no matter what they’re doing, they’ll switch places because it feels wrong.

- Neil gets too caught up in retelling Todd his dreams in the morning so it can take him upwards of ten minutes to do his tie, which sometimes makes him late to leaving, so to combat it Todd started doing Neil’s tie in the morning while he talked.

- Neil and Ginny (and by extension Chet) are cousins by marriage. Does that make sense at all? No. But I do not care.

- Charlie was the tallest of the group up until tenth grade when everyone else got growth spurts and left him in the dust.

- Cameron lives with his grandparents.

- The Anderson family is HUGE (I’m talking 4 pairs of grandparents, 6 aunts, 5 uncles, 8 cousins kind of huge) and Jeff and Todd are the only boys in their generation.

- Jumping off from the last one: Todd’s cousins used to use him as a guinea pig because he was the youngest.

- Mrs. Perry’s first name is Nancy.

- Mr. And Mrs. Anderson are named Patrick and Rebecca respectively.

- Out of the entire group, Pitts is the only one that’s ever actually had a girlfriend by the start of the movie. (For like 3 weeks in 7th grade, but still)

- Ginny and Chris have complete opposite tastes in music and are always exchanging records for the other to see if they like.

- Todd loves snakes.

- Knox jumps a solid half a foot in the air when scared.

- Meeks hates spiders. Charlie loves them. You can imagine how that tends to go down.

- Neil had always wanted a dog but could never get one because his mom has a fur allergy.

- Cameron does origami in his spare time.

- Meeks can’t do a cartwheel and EVERYONE makes fun of him for it.

- Neil had a one-sided beef with Jeff pre-junior year that he could never justify or rationalize until he met Todd.

- Chris does Ginny’s lipgloss for her every morning before school.

- Todd Anderson autism + Neil Perry AuDHD is real TO ME.

- Neil and Todd can’t be alone together for longer than five minutes without breaking out into hysterical laughter over essentially nothing.

- Neil and Charlie once tried to convince a store clerk they were orphan brothers for free ice cream. It did not work.

- Todd can’t cook for shit and is on ‘handing-people-things-they-need’ duty. Neil can cook just barely. Cameron, somehow, is a master chef. Knox consistently nicks his fingers with knives and is no longer allowed in the kitchen.

- In a modern setting, Knox would absolutely have two moms.

- Neil and Todd’s wardrobes have essentially morphed into one singular wardrobe and they can’t differentiate what belongs to who anymore. They’ve stopped caring and just wear each others clothes if they want to.

- Neil is a master at drunk karaoke. Charlie is a master at drunkenly pressuring Neil into doing drunk karaoke.

- The ribbon Chris wears in her hair is a gift from Ginny.

- Pitts is almost scarily good at checkers.

- Charlie can hold his breath for almost three minutes.

- Neil is a biter.

- ‘Spazs’ name is Eugene, Stick’s name is Roy, Hopkins’ first name is Albert.

- Keating’s implied british wife(?) is named Jessica.

- Charlie is the only one of the guys that can SOMEWHAT dance.

- More often than not, Todd is actually the one to reach out and hold Neil’s hand rather than the other way around.

- Todd’s middle name is Augustus.

And that’s all the ones I can remember right now!!! Questions, comments, concerns?????

"are you really shipping the only two girls in the movie and one of them is actually just in the deleted scenes?"

hell yes I am

[the-bisexual-and-damned]

todd x knox is so very confusing (and i don’t know if it was shipped ironically or with full seriousness)

cause anderperry is the beloved ship (no further explanation)

chris x ginny are two characters that could have so much going - ginny as a jo march esq ambitious theater nerd, and chris the sweet, lovable cheerleader who unexpectedly falls for her boyfriends sister.

charlie x meeks is ‘hey, what if the nuisance and the nerd got together?’ and i think the beloved dork and the class clown are chaotic and fun as a ship concept. and love the idea of meeks helping charlie with latin and it just turns into a study date.

cameron x charlie is frenemies to lovers, probably lots of angst (as if these ships didn’t have enough of them) they’re foils of one another, and there would be SO MUCH back and forth it would make walt whitmans head spin in his grave. then opening up to each other-

what ARE TODD AND KNOX??? i can imagine he does his big romantic gestures, like he did in the movie, and successfully puts todd in a coma. like charlie being his wingman and telling knox that the big stuff won’t work, and not listening, makes him almost sob in class. and todd would think he was trying to intentionally embarrass him, and knox would say that he was IN LAUV with todd, and todd wouldn’t believe him. and maybe knox would write a really cheesy romantic poem that would make todd laugh???

[chrisginny]

queer rep is like “i think i might be gay omg 😳” while queer-coding is like “i can take care of myself / no / what do you mean, no?” “are you going out for the henley hall play? / uh, maybe / you know, you really should, gin, you’d be great” “all the good ones go for jerks, you know that” “you should come to the rehearsals / oh, i should?” “we got it, pittsie, we got it!” (staring lovingly at a kid in class while he recites a poem) (being an inseparable duo and building an illegal radio together) (showing genuine emotional vulnerability to a boy he met last month) (playing puck) (playing hermia) etc etc etc..

[taciturnpoet]

everyone always makes Neil & Ginny wlw mlm solidarity in fics and such

but let me raise you Todd and Chris wlw mlm solidarity and their hopeless crushes on actors in the theater department

[henry-fox-biggest-stan]

More about the dps musical

Still no updates BUT I found a snippet of a song, The Unmanned Flying Desk Set, a part Todd would sing (not sang by Todd’s actor, but by who wrote the lyrics). (Also I’m not sure if it’s from this musical??)

Also it’s a BOP

The actors:
