#marching band aus are criminally underutilized!!!!

[jade-gemstone]

I'm a band kid in the thick of band camp and hyperfixated on DRDT so you all get my DRDT marching band headcannons let's go!!!

Ace

Either trumpet or battery

Threatens to quit every year but never does

Veronika

Clarinet

Scares rookies on purpose and befriends the ones that don't run away from her after the first week

Arei

Color Guard

Hates being on flag, prefers to be on weapons

Complains when other people get solos

"Accidentally" hits Arturo with her equipment on a regular basis

J

Battery, tenor drums

Doesn't believe in water breaks

Rose

Pit

Falls asleep under her keyboard during drill learning rehearsals

Xander

The 1 (one) nice trumpet player

Has attempted to mutiny the band director over lack of kept promises in regards to breaks.

Levi

(Bari) Saxophone

The only person who doesn't end up a disheveled mess by the end of band camp (actually uses sunscreen and deodorant and showers every day)

Teruko

She's that one clarinet who's just a bitch that gossips and never stops talking

They've stopped giving her dots on props because the props always break

Goes through at least one reed per week

Hu

Pit

Has snacks out on the sideline and keeps extra water bottles on her

Forces everyone to reapply sunscreen every two hours

Charles

Tuba

Complains about how much he hates the drill every year

Arturo

Baritone

I know a tall skinny baritone player who thinks being mean to people is regular/friendly behavior so

Eden

Mellophone

Gives pep talks before and after every competition

I'm an autistic lesbian who plays mellophone and so is Eden because we are the same person

Min

Flute

Always the first to memorize music and drill

Knows her exact coordinate for every dot

Whit

Saxophone

Decided to learn saxophone because he wanted to learn to play careless whisper

David

Drum Major that used to play mellophone

Gets hit by band camp burn out the fastest and the hardest

Nico

Clarinet

Always plays too quiet

Can't do a single pushup so when asked to do pushups they just lay on the ground trying their best

Extras!!

Whit forcibly befriended Charles their first year by sitting next to him on the bus to every contest

Eden, David, and Hu try to organize lunches with their friends every week of band camp. Only Whit, Xander, and Arei show up to them.

Whit organizes band wide dress up days. Arei makes fun of people who don't participate in them.
