Chat hear me out; Dead Poets Society Shitty Romcom AU

I'm a genius, okay so either they're all roommates or they're just a really close group of friends and either Todd's the new roommate or there's a coffee shop meet-cute of some kind that introduces him to the group. I haven't thought this all the way through yet, but here are the roles:

Neil: One main love interest. Aspiring actor (like all shitty romcoms, this takes place in NYC), and like a quirky caffeine addict yk? The one who either doesn't realize his feelings or denies them to everyone else constantly.

Todd: The other main love interest (ofc bc duh). Writes for a small newspaper, will eventually confess his love for Neil in an article publicly. Everyone but Neil can see how much he admires Neil and stuff.

Charlie: The "what the fuck are you doing he is clearly head over heels for you go make a move"-womanizerish-acts-silly-but-is-really-insightful-actually best friend. Jazz musician, basically broke because musicians are paid jackshit.

Knox: Oh god. I don't really like Knox, so forgive me. He's like...yk...the one who's girl-crazy but the second a girl leaves him (which happens quite often) he goes through this whole "aghhh women amirite??" phase. He's the one that's completely miserable to be around because he's either like that or writing really bad love songs over girls who could not be less interested.

Meeks and Pitts: The already established couple whose dates have just become trying to push Neil and Todd together. Meeks is an actual rocket scientist and makes enough money that (in the roommate situation) he usually covers Charlie's rent when Charlie can't. Pitts is some sort of bug scientist and specializes in caterpillars. They own a few strange pets, including a bearded dragon named Penny.

Cameron: He's the trope of like..the normal one. He thinks all of this is stupid and is just so, SO tired of everyone's bullshit antics. He probably has some vague 9-5 business job OR works at a coffee shop where the poets hang out just to annoy him.

Keating: He owns a bookstore where they all hang out. They have a version of the club where they meet each week after hours to read poetry and the usual. He gives good advice and makes them hot chocolate. :)

Nolan: uhhhh I didn't really think about this one guys...😬 Maybe the big bad rich business man who's threatening to close Keating's bookstore (he will not succeed).

Chris: The current girl Knox is trying to woo throughout the movie. In this universe, Knox is not a TOTAL creep, so it's okay when they eventually end up together. They get their own little subplot.

Ginny: Neil's friend, maybe cousin. She wouldn't live with them, but she'd practically live there, yk? She doesn't end up with anybody (she could end up with Charlie if you want, i just personally dont ship it) and is just there to watch everything go down.

It would be your typical 90s romcom except gay and stuff. This is so weird but it randomly came to me and I had to get it down. Might post about this l8r idk..

There is something I need so desperately to be understood. Those edits of DPS to the Piano Man verse "now Paul is a real estate novelist" etc etc, great, wonderful, excellently done. However, none of y'all are doing it right (that I've seen). So, I will be breaking it down:

"Now Paul is a real estate novelist, who never had time for a wife" is Todd. And it is important that it stays real estate novelist, Todd wants to be an author but as long as he's writing, he's okay with it, even if it's means he's not truely happy with it, at least he's still writing. I'm not explaining the never had time for a wife part, that's self explanatory

"And he's talk to Davey, who's still in the navy and probably will be for life" is Meeks. This is the part where everyone messes up. Its saying that Davey died in the navy, he is never coming home. Meeks canonically steps on a landmine and dies in Vietnam!!! Also, Davey is stuck in service. Meeks was always serving, thats why he joined the army

"And the waitress is practicing politics" is Cameron, another part which is commonly wrong (in my opinion), but I fear that's just cause some people within this fandom don't like Cameron... And see, this line is also important to stay as is, all Cameron wants is to make his parents proud, which they only will be if he's successful, but he isn't, he's just a waiter who's trying to be something bigger than himself

"Well a business man slowly gets stoned" is Charlie. The intention behind this line (to me) is that the business man hates his job and life, this bar and smoking are his only escapes because he was unable to follow his passions (it could also be alive au Neil but that gets complicated with the rest of the audio clip used for these edits)

"Yes they're sharing a drink called loneliness" is literally any scene where they're all happy, when they're running out to the cave is a good one, the scene where they carry Keating at the soccer field, those are the main ones I imagine but its flexible

"But its better than drinking alone" is Neil. Specifically, when hes turned out to the audience at the end of A Midsummer Night's Dream, and it fades out on his forlorn face as the song fades

I'm not hating, I'm just not good at editing and I need someone to edit this in the way I envision it, please! Lots of love and support to all the DPS edits to this song I see, I always like, favorite, and repost them on TikTok and I don't see many here but I aways like and repost them when I do

Neil Perry was definitely the kid that would trauma dump in the middle of playing, stare at the other person for a few second in complete silence and then climb back on the slide as if nothing happened.

Charlie Dalton was definitely the kid that would self-proclaim himself king of the swings and monopolise them, making the other kids queue and guess the secret password in order to swing.

Todd Anderson was definitely the kid that would hover around group of kids by himself, waiting for someone to invite him to play but not finding the courage to go up and ask himself.

Steven Meeks was definitely the kid that would use very complex words for an elementary schooler and sigh every time he had to re-explain the rules of a game in an easier way.

Gerard Pitts was definitely the kid that would find random bugs, grab them and then drop them on other kids, explaining what type of bugs they were as the other kids screamed and ran away.

Richard Cameron was definitely the kid that would get upset when someone tried to change the rules of games and then explain why it was wrong to do so.
