idk I thought you might have fun with this but like? TOG characters in a marching band? what do they play? idk - are they good at it? yuh.

Hello!! <3 This is a wild coincidence because I was just talking about this with a few pals the other day! Starting with Nile, because I think she's the best suited for it. Something about her says Band Kid.

Nile: Trombone! A very important part of the marching band! I can see her playing this from the time she was little. Maybe her dad used to play! Maybe she practiced with his old instrument. Also, I just love the sound for her!

Andy: I want to say the tuba! Also a very essential component to the whole marching band. And it's bloody huge and I think she could easily carry it for hours. (Upon a bit more research, I think the instrument I might be thinking of is a sousaphone).

Joe: Saxophone, baby! Or perhaps a flute. The range of sound and the whimsical sound of the flute just match Joe's artistic/poetic nature to me. Or he can just be a hopeless romantic and play some smooth jazz.

Nicky: Can I say... piccolo Nicolo? sdfghf. No but for real I feel like he would carry a heavier instrument than a piccolo, like maybe a trumpet. Trumpets sort of make me think of his voice.

Booker: Maybe it has something to do with the way I picture him in my head -- the Napoleonic foot soldier --- but I think Booker would absolutely play drums. One of those small ones that hangs at your front that you tippity-tap with two sticks. Little drummer boy.

Quynh: Cymbals. She reeks of chaos. Like you know that kid in School of Rock who got put on cymbals because he's a little hyperactive? Yeah, that could be Quynh. OR, wind. I would give her a nice little flute or a clarinet.

Lykon: I'd put Lykon on flute too, actually! We don't see much of him but we know his choice weapon is a spear. I guess my brain is going spear = long and skinny = flute.

Bonus! Copley: That one giant drum. Or do marching bands still have a triangle guy? I feel like Copley would get stuck with the instrument no one else wants to play dfgfds I can't explain it, it's just his luck.

#sdfgds thank you for the ask this was fun!! <333 #i love answering these and thinking about them tbh #also can you tell i cannot play a single musical instrument dfdssd my apologies to musicians!!
