Sirens (1993)
* , 𝚃.𝙰.
✎ ` @goodfelow ➜ that tastes like garbage.
𝚃𝙷𝙴𝚁𝙴'𝚂 𝙰 𝚂𝙿𝙴𝙲𝙺 𝙾𝙵 𝚃𝙾𝙼𝙰𝚃𝙾 𝚂𝙰𝚄𝙲𝙴 staining the lip of my tie, i dab at it with my napkin, but my efforts are futile — it’s ruined, i’ll have to soak it later when the bathrooms are clear. it’s hard to make out neil’s voice in the throughs of others, the chorus of the lunchroom is bustling with boyish vitality and vigor ; i’m left feeling 𝚖𝚎𝚎𝚔, unsure of when to hinge my way into the amicable conversation in front of me.
it’s neil ( it’s always neil, always ) who nudges into me, and invites me with open arms. ❝ t - the spaghetti? ❞ i ask, my question drowned by the rasping bellow of dr. hager nearby * SIT UP STRAIGHT, MISTER ANDERSON ! and i struggle to abide, shoulders lifted to my ears in a jerk. ❝ … you don’t like it? it’s fine to me. ❞
CAFETERIA CALMOR [ . . . ] the din of a hundred knives and forks striking a hundred different plates as a hundred different boys chatter of a hundred different things. ( snatches of conversation float above it all : can i copy your calculus homework? / no, no ! that’s not true at all . . . / did you hear john is going out with a townie – ) conversation that seems to die the moment a teacher gets too close. teenage words, teenage worries – grades and homework and girls. and, of course, dinner.
❝ it’s fine if you don’t have taste buds . . . ❞ words are spoken the moment dr . hager’s back is turned – golden boy returned to regular teen within mere seconds. he reaches out with one hand, grabbing at todd’s stained tie and giving it a sharp tug – a boyish act of quiet familiarity. ❝ and this is some of the better food. ❞

* [ . . . ] concept of home and family.
neil is, first and foremost, a trophy child. to his parents he has always been more of an object than a living child with his own wants or needs. his father’s word is law, and he rules with “ the pressures of guilt and punishment ” no one speaks against him, not even his wife. neil and his father are disconnected, if there is love there it’s a very conditional kind, based on grades and awards and soccer games won. their relationship is one based on fear, not on closeness or understanding. neil’s relationship with his mother is also shaped by that fear. neil loves his mother – he really does – and she loves him, but it’s hard to form a connection with a son who cannot let you in for fear of his tyrannical father. neil’s thoughts and feelings about his parents, when it comes down to it, revolve around this tension. it’s ever - present and unavoidable, a barrier between all of them that he doesn’t think he can ever breach.
home is also a tricky subject for neil. if asked, he would likely tell someone that his home is his parents’ house. however, since going to welton in seventh grade, he’s barely spent any time there. his room reflects old interests, those of a child much younger than him. and besides, it never was much of a home anyways. welton is also not a home to him, despite how long he’s occupied its walls. in both places he’s always felt trapped, stuck living a life he doesn’t want and pretending to be someone he is not. the most at home neil has ever felt, as cliche as it is, is with the dead poets or in the theatre. those are the first two places where he has been able to be himself, fully and unapologetically, and the first places he has felt truly loved and cared for. that is where he’s at home.
WHAT ARE YOUR CHARACTER’S STAR SIGNS ?
NAME: neil thomas perry. DATE: december 20th, 1943. TIME: 12:36 pm. LOCATION: montpelier, vermont, united states. RESULT: sagittarius sun, libra moon, pisces rising.
SUN ☼ SAGITTARIUS:
* – restless, cheerful, and friendly, sun in sagittarius people are generally on the go. they have a love of freedom, and a disdain for routine. Generally quite easygoing, sagittarians make friends with people from all walks of life. they love to laugh and tease, and get along well with both sexes. sagittarians have an often blind faith in people, and in the world. their optimism is infectious, although it can get them into trouble from time to time. these are curious people who love to learn. their idealistic nature is hard to miss. although generally easygoing, sagittarius is a fire sign. this gives natives a generally quick temper. fortunately, they're usually as quick to forget what got them angry in the first place. the need for escape is generally strong, and some solar sagittarians come across as a little irresponsible. they're generally easy to forgive, however. after all, their direct, honest approach in life is admirable.
MOON ☾ LIBRA:
* – moon in libra people have a strong need for partnership. without someone to share their lives with, they feel utterly incomplete. this is why many people with this position get involved in marriages or living - together arrangements quite young. because this drive for harmony, peace, and sharing is so powerful, lunar librans are apt to do a lot of conceding. they are sympathetic and concerned for others, enjoy socializing, and revel in a good debate. mental rapport with others is especially important to them. lunar librans feel safe and secure when they are in a partnership. these are the people who seem to always need to have someone tag along with them wherever they go - even if it is to the corner store. they find strength and reinforcement in and through others. people with this position are often quite charming. they can be very attractive to be around, and are often given to flirtatiousness. rarely directly aggressive, these people win your heart with their gentle and refined ways. moon in libra natives simply can't help but see flaws in their environment and their relationships. in fact, anything out of whack will bother them until it's fixed. although diplomatic with acquaintances, when moon in libra natives argue with their long - standing partners, they rarely let up until they win. and, winning an argument is a libran specialty - in fact, they may not even believe what they are saying, but will adopt all kinds of ideas just to get the last word. living with lunar librans can sometimes feel like you are on trial, and libra is the expert lawyer. sometimes, though, libra is defending you and supporting your point of view. lunar librans' idealistic outlook and constant striving for the best, most harmonious lifestyle can lead to much discontent. looking for that one ( elusive ) perfect way to lead their lives can detract from enjoyment of the moment.
RISING ↑ PISCES:
* – " go with the flow " seems to be a pisces rising motto. they move about the world in a vaguely directionless, gentle manner. they come across as artists and lovers of peace ; but their open minds and hearts can give them a chameleon - like persona. others are not always sure who they'll meet from one day to the next with a pisces rising person. although often quiet and shy, another day may find them talkative and passionate. they are hugely impressionable, have a dreamy disposition, and project a soft - hearted personality. pisces rising sees the world the way they want to see it at any given time, so objectivity is not necessarily a strong point. neither is decision - making! people with pisces rising resist any kind of labeling - their characters are changeable, and they don't want to be pinned down or pegged in any way. theirs is a restless, searching nature that cannot be happy with any one way of living or being. pisces rising avoids cold, hard facts and harsh realities like the plague. they don't have a decisive plan for tomorrow or even today, preferring to keep things open. since they change their minds frequently enough, and like to " feel “ their way through life, too much organization or structure can be seen as very limiting. pisces rising people walk around with their heads in the clouds, and even when you do have their attention, their dreaminess is almost always apparent. these people look for a stable partnership - one that is reliable. pisces rising people gravitate to partners who keep them on their toes, and they often will pass off the little details and reality checks to their significant other. they seem to need a practical, realistic partner. pisces ascendants often have a sensitivity to drugs, and sometimes are prone to allergies that come and go. their physical constitutions seem to be less resistant than most. pisces rising people often possess an irresistible charm that comes on in a quiet way, with a soft aura about them. both their appearance and mannerisms are usually quite intriguing to others.
