Summary
Neil Perry was six years old the first time he felt the sting of his father’s cruel words seep like poison into his skin. In a local supermarket in the small town of Wilmington, Vermont that the Perrys called home, the neatly stacked apples on the quaint wooden display were fresh and crisp.
“Rose, what are you doing still holding his hand in public like that? He’s in the first grade now, he ought to start to become more independent. Boys don’t hold their mother’s hands at this age,” he sneered.☆☽☆
Todd Anderson knew all about shame. If there was one feeling that always returned to him like home, year after year as he got older, it was shame. Shame for feeling different. Shame for hardly being able to get a sentence out without stuttering. Shame for being inferior, inferior to Jeffrey.
A mostly canon-compliant DPS story, folliowing the events of their time at Welton and focusing more on the inner thoughts of characters (mostly Neil and Todd). Focuses on Neil and Todd's relationship, Todd's issues with anxiety, Neil's issues with depression and not being able to follow his own path. Despite attempting suicide, Neil lives, and the story continues to the end of the poets' final year.

Summary
Even Neil Perry, a purely good man though everyone knew him to be, was not spared from the ill-making feelings which made men fume at their own luck, which made them maudlin and spiteful. Even Neil Perry, good man though he was, could not escape the grasping, clutching hands of jealousy.
Or in which Neil finds Todd’s secret notebook of love poetry and is immediately driven mad by his own speculations; Charlie is amused and, while not all-knowing, somehow much smarter than his dumb friend. Todd just wants to know if his bed has eaten his book again.

Summary
...for, of course, they were to have a son. This son was to join in cutting off the entail, as soon as he should be of age...
(A series of what-ifs exploring in turn the possibilities had any of the Bennet girls been born male.)
