Dan Howell Phill Lester That's everything that's important. (Or: Dan is the weird kid that dresses in pastels and hands out flowers to people for no apparent reason and Phil is the leather jacket wearing art kid who pretends to be immortal through his drawings. Despite the odds, they're best friends, and nobody quite understands the limitations - or lack thereof - of their friendship.) TRIGGER WARNINGS: major character death by SUICIDE, don't begin reading if this triggers you because that is the ending so it can't be skipped and there's nothing worse than an unfinished story

Dan is a firm believer that love doesn't exist. Not in adults, and definitely not in high school. He detests silly love stories and petty relationships, posing as 'love', and nothing could possibly change his mind in that. But when new student Phil takes an intrest in Dan, he can't deny that he's interested in the boy. His bubbly personality and hopeless romantic ways draw Dan in.....and might just change his mind in the thoughts of love.
