you might expect frank hates his name and maybe it’s out of date in a generation of jasons and zacks, but he’s alright with it—because he’s named after his mother’s grandfather, frank hughes—WWII naval hero, worked on the USS nevada in pearl harbor and was present during the attacks on his ship and base, and who went on to fight in the pacific.

That's it. Right and breathe in.

Don't worry. I got your room assignment.

Glad you could come by. You've been away too long.

Hey! I hear we're gonna be roommates.

Hey I heard you got the new kid.

How was your summer?

Hmm what's [his/her/their] specialty? Bootlicking?

It's every bit as tough as they say unless you're a genius like Einstein.

When you're on your own, you can do as you damn well please.

You know me: always taking on too much.

Why doesn't [he/she/they] let you do what you want?

Well just don't tell me how to talk to my father.

So what are you gonna do then?

I don't care. I don't give a damn about any of it.

"O Captain my Captain."

Somewhat appropriate isn't it?

"Carpe diem. " Do you know what that means?

One day we are going to stop breathing, turn cold and die.

You've walked past them many times. I don't think you've really looked at them.

Listen. Do you hear it?

Oh come on, [name]. Don't you get anything?

Who's up for a quick study group tonight?

Duh! Just replace these numbers here with 'x "for 'x"and 'y. "

You think I can get in there? You've been hogging it all day.

How was dinner?

Are you crazy? What's wrong with that?

It's worse than "too bad", It's a tragedy.

We're not laying pipe. We're talking about poetry.

Go on. Rip it out! It's not the Bible. You're not gonna go to hell for this.

What the hell is going on here?

We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race.

Poetry; beauty romance love- -these are what we stay alive for.

It was very fascinating, misguided though it was.

Funny I never pegged you as a cynic.

What's the Dead Poets Society?

Oh my God. No that's not me.

Why? What was it?

You mean it was a bunch of guys sitting around reading poetry?

Not a bad way to spend an evening eh?

Where's this cave [he/she/they] talking about?

You know how many demerits we're talking?

Look all I'm saying is that we have to be careful.

No shit Sherlock!

What is this a midnight study group?

I don't know. This is starting to sound dangerous.

For God's sake. Stop chattering and sit down.

Don't you want to do something about that?

Gosh you really have a problem with that don't you?

What if you didn't have to read? What if you just came and listened?

Could you give that back please?

Get away from me, okay?

God are you trying to smoke us out of here!?

Hey! I told you that one!

You want to hear a real poem?

Wow. Whoa. Where did you get that?

Come on, are you a man or an amoeba?

Why do I stand up here?

See the world looks very different from up here.

Come see for yourselves. Come on. Even though it may seem silly or wrong you must try.

Don't think I don't know this assignment scares the hell out of you.

"A Midsummer Night's Dream." It's a play dummy.

Yes! I'm gonna be an actor!

For the first time in my whole life I know what I want to do.

How are you gonna be in a play if your father won't let you?

Bullshit. Nothing's impossible.

Can't I even enjoy the idea for a little while?

Wh- What is that supposed to mean?

I mean, I appreciate this concern but I'm not like you, all right?

The point is there's nothing you can do about it so you can just butt out.

I can take care of myself just fine.

Don't be immature. Come on!

Oh to have life henceforth the poem of new joys

[Name], how are you gonna do this?

I'm sorry Captain. It's stupid.

A major theme not only in poetry but life.

We're not laughing at you, we're laughing near you.

Just don't let your poems be ordinary.

Isn't that right, [name]. Isn't that your worst fear?

I think you have something inside of you… that is worth a great deal.

Say the first thing that pops into your head even if it's total gibberish.

Close your eyes. Describe what you see.

Truth is like a blanket that always leaves your feet cold.

What do you say we start this meeting?

Where did you learn to play like that?

I've been calm all my life. I'm gonna do something about that!

Where are you going? What are you gonna do?

I want you to find your own walk right now, your own way of striding pacing any direction.

Is today your birthday?

Maybe they weren't thinking about anything at all.

Oh my! Well I wouldn't worry.

Why don't you go downstairs? That's where everybody is.

We gonna have a meeting or what?

There's plenty more where that came from.

Now how's about a kiss?

What the hell are you doing?

Well don't you think they're gonna figure out who wrote it?

[Name], you had no right to do something like that.

Are we just playing around out here or do we mean what we say?

Hey, would you not worry about your precious little neck?

So what are you gonna do?

I always thought the idea of education was to learn to think for yourself.

But I thought you'd like that.

You being expelled from school is not daring to me. It's stupid.

Did you really think I wasn't going to find out?

You can go anywhere. You can do anything. How can you stand being here?

Acting is everything to me.

Have you ever told your father what you just told me?

You have to show him who you are what your heart is.

It's not a whim for you. You prove it to him by your conviction and your passion.

Isn't there an easier way?

I came to apologize for the other night. I brought you these and a poem I wrote for you.

Look, I acted like a jerk and I know it.

Really? You told him what you told me?

I didn't mean to make a fool out of you.

You don't- - You don't even know me.

I have to go. I'm gonna be late for the play.

If you don't like me after tonight, I'll stay away forever.

Good night sweet friend. Thy love ne'er alter 'til thy sweet life end.

So good night unto you all. Give me your hands if we be friends.

What a performance. You left even me speechless.

Don't make it any worse than it is.

Whatever the reason we're not gonna let you ruin your life.

That's ten more years. That's a lifetime!

Don't be so dramatic. You make it sound like a prison term.

You have opportunities that I never even dreamt of!

I was good. I was really good.

don't worry. we'll figure something out.

no one's ever going to kiss me.

it's so hard to kill someone. who would have thought?

don't hate. everything comes back around.

positive thinking is perverse. same as goodwill.

how do you run from something that doesn't exist?

you know how to keep secrets.

i hope i die before i get old.

do you really want me to tell a therapist what we did?

you've always been boring.

i expected this, but i'm still disappointed.

there's something sad about your smile.

you are excessively compassionate.

[  silent  ]  sender  and  receiver  stand  together  without  speaking,  just  breathing  the  same  air / robby

i will be writing absolutely zero cheating plots with frank, no exceptions. i am very uncomfortable with writing this concept, as i am a child of infidelity. any ships with frank occur after he is amicably divorced or, more preferably, he was never married at all. that said, my favorite ship for frank IS abby!

frank  blinks.  that's  not  unusual,  though.  he  kinda  always  gets  that  way  when  john  talks  to  him.  sometimes  just  mystified  by  the  things  dr.  shen  comes  up  with  to  say.  the  same.  but  different.  but  the  same.  ❝  right.  well,  my  facial  reconstructive  surgeon  was  booked.  so  i  settled  for  just  the  rehab.  ❞  he  smiles  though,  down  at  his  shoes,  because  another  thing  john  shen  always  does  to  him  is  charm  him.  and  he  has  to  squash  that  down  to  avoid  openly  flirting  with  the  night  shift's  newest  attending.  ❝  how's  it  been  around  here?  good  stories  from  last  night?  ❞  frank  takes  hold  of  the  spare  ipad,  since  john  is  somehow  balancing  two  on  open  palms,  and  surveys  the  damage  from  the  night  prior.  nothing  they  can't  handle.
