Why is this so ACCURATE

jack and roger

ralph and simon

samneric

maurice and roger

the lord of the flies

I'm honestly just Ralph but without the schoolwork

What the boys do during quarantine

Ralph: Focuses in schoolwork as hard as possible, stays inside, sits on Instagram and TikTok for 11 hours a day

Piggy: educates himself on every aspect of the virus, diligently does schoolwork, texts Ralph rants about his neighbors breaking quarantine

Jack: doesn’t stay inside, meets up with friends, doesn’t wear a mask and makes fun of everyone who does

Simon: avoids the news because it makes him sad, plays Animal Crossing 24/7, goes for walks at night

Samneric: fight over the TV remote, frequently interrupts their Moms Zoom work meetings, settle on a puzzle and then never finish it

Roger: murders his parents probably??

Hfghgghh lmaooo

Piggy: What’s your favorite color?

Jack: Stop asking stupid questions, ask me something logical and mature.

Piggy: How many moles of sodium bicarbonate are needed to neutralize 0.8 ml of sulfuric acid at STP?

Jack: My favorite color is black.

This is now canon in my head k

What headcanons do you guys have for LOTF characters and the subjects they’d study at university? I’m curious.

Mine are:

Jack - law (Jack is just peak law-student vibes. Typical overachieving head boy, head chorister, likes to pick arguments with everyone, theatrical enough to appreciate the showmanship of being a lawyer.)

Maurice - chemistry (okay, hear me out, I just feel like Maurice could be that guy who seems like just a memer on the surface but is actually really smart. Plus bad chemistry puns.)

Ralph - Either French or English Lit (Ralph’s a fairly emotional person, so either studying a Romance language like French, which is a fairly passionate, emotional language, or English Lit, with all the romanticism it involves, would probably suit him.)

Roger - geology (The boy likes rocks, okay?)

Simon - Philosophy (I was really torn between this and Religious Studies, but between his whole ‘the beast is inside of us’ revelation, and the fact that I really want him to be a mini Chidi Anagonye, it checks out.)

Sam - Chemistry (It would just highly amuse me if one twin were really nerdy and academically inclined, and the other...Less so. Plus, all the chemistry puns with Maurice.)

Eric - Film Studies (Eric is 100% that annoying sibling who talks during films, so if he did film studies, he could interject with stuff he’d learned in class. Plus, Ralric book vs movie debates.)

Piggy - Sociology (Very interested in the workings of society, probably enjoys bringing up and debating various points. Loudly remarks that the likes of Jack and Roger are what’s causing societal breakdown.)

Omg yesssss hfhhddfg..

when you finish Lord of the Flies

Me too Ralph, me too.😥💀

Simon: Can you recommend me any books that made you cry?

Ralph: General mathematics 6th edition

Y'all say it with me 👏👏Piggy deserved better👏👏

Dear Dear Piggy, the wise old friend of Ralph🐷💗🐷💗🐷💗🐷💗🐷

So I just finished watching the 1960's LOTF film and I gotta say, I'm pretty impressed by how accurate it was to the book, like, they actually said the lines from the book which made me happy. Although I do prefer the ending scene from the 90's film.

All in all, I enjoyed the movie.

Re blogging this, cuz this photo makes me laugh 😂😂

The first one is me every morning..

i like my lord of the flies content like i like my coffee, in excessive amounts thanks to quarantine

Honestly, Piggy doesn't deserve the hate :'(

Why do some people hate Piggy?

Seriously, the whole point of his character is that he's an annoying, fat, working class kid who gets constantly overlooked for the above reasons. Then at the very end, Ralph finally realises that he was actually one of the most valuable people on the island and that, had they actually listened to him and Simon, they'd probably be in a far better position by the end of the novel.

And yet I've had people tell me how glad they were that he finally died despite all this because "yeah but he was annoying". That's literally missing the entire point of his character and showing that you're just as prejudiced as Jack and the other kids on the island (and by extension, society).

Yes Ralph, very ✨ efficient ✨

Ralph: This is going to be so efficient.

Ralph: *sprays Febreze directly into the ceiling fan and immediately goes into a coughing fit when it blows back into his face.*

The squad was so vividly bad it drove Ralph CR詠ZY

reading Lord of the Flies for the first time was great

the second time was better

and the third time I’m realising just how much of a freak these boys are

my friends wish it ended in cannibalism I cried for Simon’s death I also had to have it explained to me that Simon had a seizure because I kinda speed ran those two chapters

our lords and throuple Simon Ralph Jack in the first few chapters

quickly devolving into very thick tension between Ralph and Jack and no not just aggression

Simon being a little shit in the woods making everyone uncomfortable with his bullshittery

Roger seeking homicide now that the adults are gone

Percival forgetting his name

piggy’s head getting cracked the fuck open pardon my french

Jack breaking up with Ralph and proceeding to crash out so hard over it he set an island on fire to catch and behead his ex wife (Ralph <3)

Ralph being a little freak in his head all the time

Jack painting himself with blood and putting all his homo feelings in a box and punting it into the ocean

Piggy crying bloody murder Ralph ended up with Jack and when they broke up he got mad and was gonna rush his ass but Roger killer him to protect Jack and Ralph was like bbg nooo and Jack was like bbg YES and went fwral

at least that’s how I remember it happening

(sorry these seem really vague or bland I’ll fix and update more as I go)

If you do use any plz don’t credit I don’t own ideas but plz plz PLEASE tell me if you do end up posting anywhere so I can read it

as an aspiring hyperfixator I find it deeply distressing that in the 70 years this book has been on this earth there have only been eight hundred fanfictions on Ao3

petition for the newer generations to fall in love with it as well I need MORE

so I’ve decided to take it upon myself to make up for the lack of fanbase and write about 20,000 individual titles myself/hj

I need help

So I want to purchase/read/experience the graphic novel of Lord of the Flies BUT as far as I know it is only in the UK and I’m in little ol AMERICA

So what does one do??

Amazon had no solution that wouldn’t cost 30$ and a month

sketchy pdf websites were believe it or not all sketchy

Internet Archive didn’t have it

Reddit had no answers for once

I’m too antsy to be having to do this in the beginnings of this hyperfixation AH

Partners in crime rogice

who UP ⬆️⬆️

yeah i have no reason for this one

tell me about your lotf post island headcannons please I need to smile or laugh or cry or or o

Can you spot him

(from tiktok but I’m putting this here too because I like how I drew roger 😛)

i have nothing funny to say. look at Maurice’s stupid dumb face

The modern day school au except they’re all on the student council committee (Jack made all the choir join so they could vote him as president) and Ralph ends up winning. Instead of fighting over hunting vs rescue, they’re fighting over what fundraiser they should do to raise money. Ralph wants to do a bake sale and Jack wants to do a field day. just some freaky rambling in the deep dark depths of my mind

Totally never done before modern school au

they’re so cute it makes me wanna kms guhjhususjkk

THE VOTES ARE IN AND

you guys asked for it 😈😈😈

HEY GEY HEY

I’m starting the next part of the No Rescue comic except I have two separate ideas and don’t know which to do first.

Both will be made and both Ralph and Jack WILL get angst I just don’t know which I wanna do first 😻😻 ok thabk you

Which was more culturally significant. The renaissance, or the Schooling online Lord of the flies animated summary videos
