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.
