a hug from neil perry would cure my depression instantly.
Has a hyperfixation on theatre.
If you change your tone even slightly, you can see him start to get upset.
It looks as if he's got great coping mechanisms, but he's actually really good at masking.
Gets really burnt out on a night and so everyone knows not to disturb him, especially after dps meetings.
Will cuddle with Todd when he's burnt out.
Has a wall of sticky notes to remind him to do everything.
Needs routine otherwise he gets quite anxious, so the poets all know to tell him exactly what's happening in the day and where they will all be at certain times.
Never remembers what's for dinner, no matter how many times he's told.
Gets really loud when he's excited, especially in Keating's classes. (Same with Charlie)
He'll randomly shout a line from a poem or a play relating to what you just said.
Doesn't go non verbal very often but it has happened.
He learnt sign language for when Todd goes non verbal because of his autism.
Cameron actually had healthy coping mechanisms for some of his autism symptoms, so he helps Neil study because he knows how to break the work down so it's not overwhelming.
They all have a collection of fidget toys. (Charlie and Todd have the biggest collections, and they've made it a competition as to who has the better collection.
They all get extra time, so in exams they're all sat in the same room which is actually really helpful because it means they can give each other little thumbs up and smiles. (Yes my friends do this for me, it's very nice to know someone is checking up on you)
Thank you for reading!

Here is my other post about Charlie with ADHD if you haven't already seen it <3
yawp
Yawp chain to convey activity in the fandom, I’ll start: YAWP
no because where do i find someone who will love me like that?
when neil said “gosh you really have a problem with that, don’t you” while staring into todd’s eyes, before going and asking the rest of the poets if he can come and just listen. i cry every time
just dying with the poets thats all
can we all agree that charlie and meeks’ ship name should be deeks not cheeks because deeks combines both their last names together and also sounds way cuter
Modern dead poets society except Chris forced Knox and the other poets to get acrylic nails
“Todd wondered to himself if he would ever get used to the way it felt to be loved by Neil Perry”
this is so perfect i cant
