Asriel

A sweet, inquisitive person, he can talk to anyone and understand them for who/what they are, or, put simply, he sees through people and their intentions. Very smart and focuses on tactics/strategy. Doesn't show much negative emotion. Has a small group of real friends. Often lost in thought, he is usually quiet, but that doesn't mean he's not noticed. In fact, he's actually well respected and known whether he knows it or not. Impeccable timing if he talks/makes a joke. When especially angered, he just recluses even more, making him deadly calm and even headed, unless it reaches a point to where he lets all of his usually bottled up emotion out at once. Usually confident, can do anything he puts his head to, and a killer musician. He's also got a head for chess and clue. All in all, an example.

Other: Oh, Asriel? He's been here for a while.
Student: WUT

Marching Band

Usually noticed as a talented and hard-working musical group, Band, to the participants, see it as a cult. In a traditional marching band period, what happens there is pretty much grinding on drill, or the form of the players/actors/color guard, the whole time, with an occasional cup of ice. There the band rules out the weak and puts them as alternates, or, literally, pawns used only in emergencies. Working on the music is more or less vigorous, with the poor drum major trying his/her hardest to direct while band plays. Old ladies screaming at you about tone and support is another plus, along with whoever wants to bang our heads against the wall with rhythm lectures. And who can forget good old MUSIC THEORY! oH gOsH tHe TuBas
Band is pretty much survival of the fittest both musically, mentally and physically, and it all comes together to make a show.

Did you hear the marching band playing music? It was great!
