#or at a campfire singalong and percy's just singing and doing his thing

[haethealhell]

do you remember how I had (have) a list of VoicePlay people as Riordan-Verse characters i.e. Magnus Chase, Piper McLean and all that

well, I'm back (please imagine me running forwards (with the grin of one who has set someone up for a deez nuts joke and is waiting to deliver the punchline) and giving you this post in the way that a small child would give a weird rock to someone they like) to push my Percy Jackson as Geoff Castellucci agenda because the possible skits are very funny to me

for example, Estelle's (Percy's younger sister) favorite movie being The Little Mermaid and her favorite character being Ursula and in extension, Geoff/Percy (Peoff? Geocy?)

and for a crack thing, Ursula being an actual sea deity that Percy meets, Percy telling her about the Medley and Ursula demanding to see it and becoming his biggest hype-man

the possibilities, guys

the possibilities

A curly-haired whirlwind blew through my cabin doorway and collapsed on my bed.

"Hola nene."

I smiled slightly, glancing up from my phone. "Greetings, destroyer of clean bedsheets." I nudged him with my knee. "Get off, you're probably covered in oil and grease."

Leo placed an offended hand on his chest, eyes wide in mock horror. "Perdón, you're so rude, that was one time!" He sat up, leaning over to see my phone screen. "Whatcha up to?"

"Nothing, to be honest." I clicked the screen off and tossed it on the pillow. "Waiting for the appropriate time to watch a movie."

Leo threw an arm round my shoulders. "Okay, I'm just throwing this out there..."

I held my breath. That was not a sentence that came before things I liked.

"...The Apollo kids are having a singalong by the campfire in like an hour, wanna come?"

My heartbeat was already increasing, palms already a little sweaty. "Oh, uh, I don't know-"

Leo turned so he was facing towards the side of my body. "Imma make it clear that you do not have to come, alright?" He poked my cheek to get me to turn my face to his. "Cariño, I wasn't asking because I need you to go with me, there's no obligation, I was only asking because it might be something you'd enjoy and I'd stay with you the whole time, promento."

I chewed my lip a little, feeling kind of stupid that the reassurance was really nice. There was no way I'd be able to go alone, but maybe with Leo I could deal with it?

"...I mean, you don't have to stay with me all the time, I can't ask that of you..."

His fist gently tapped my arm. "Hey, who am I?"

I grinned at him. "Isn't that Jason's line?"

Rolling his eyes, Leo grabbed my shoulders and shook me slightly. "Answer my question, idiota."

"You're my best friend." I smiled softly at him, shrugging off his hands.

"Exactly," he flicked my forehead. "And as your certified number one bestie, I'm saying I want to be around you, I like being around you and it would be cool if you'd come with me and judge Percy's singing with me round the campfire as the Apollo kids try to drown him out."

The kid made a pretty convincing argument. It would be dark in an hour anyway so I didn't need to worry too much about what I'd wear, I could disappear quietly if I wanted under the cover of shadows and voices...

"...and if I get overwhelmed, you'll come watch a disney movie with me?"

"And if you get overwhelmed, I'll watch as many disney movies as you want," Leo grinned. "Alright, I'll be back in-" he took out a pocket watch from his toolbelt and checked the time. "-exactly 49 minutes, okay? Then we'll head down to the campfire and I'll let you choose where we sit."

I nodded, happy to have an exact plan. "Thanks Leo, thanks for dealing with my shit."

That earned me another forehead flick. "No, it's not me dealing with your shit, it's us being amigos, alright? So shut up and let me leave so I can be back in 48 minutes."

How do you headcanon the seven's singing voices? I see Jason as a very bright, soaring tenor and Reyna as a very expressive mezzo, but I'm not too sure of everyone else.

THANK YOU for asking me this. I have wanted to go on about this for AGES. If you want links to any songs I think they could sing, just DM me and I’ll send them to you (I’m a bit anxious about linking right now while Tumblr is on a deletion spree). 

Jason- I’ve always thought of Jason as a baritenor, but I’m actually really liking this tenor idea! I just turned on “Wie sag ich’s ihm?” from Romeo und Julia and I’m thinking Jason’s voice would be something like this singer’s. 

Reyna- I’m with you 100% on the expressive mezzo. My sister is an expressive mezzo and holy crap they’re amazing. Tears. Actual tears. I bet she’s really popular when campfire singalongs come around. 

Percy- Right now I’m on a Black Butler: Book of Circus musical kick, so the closest I can get to Percy’s voice is Joker from that. There are some songs on YouTube, and I’d recommend listening to either “Noah’s Ark Circus” or “My Hand,” because those show off Joker’s voice best. He’s got a voice that’s deeper than you’d expect, which I think works with Percy’s personality. There’s more to him than meets the eye.

Annabeth- Soprano. First soprano for sure. It’s hard not to overthink things while you’re singing up there with the bats, and that gels with Annabeth’s drive to be perfect and measured in everything she does/says. She’s a soprano with a light, pure, sweet tone, but she can also carry a lower tune if she has to, and she can carry a comedic song. She’s inventive and flexible, so why wouldn’t her voice be those things as well? (As a lyric soprano, I admit I have a soft spot for lyrics.)

Piper- Soprano, but a darker and more dramatic soprano than Annabeth. They balance each other out. You can’t have one without the other and they make a fantastic trio with Reyna. She’s also the kind of singer you could listen to for hours and hours and hours singing the alphabet without getting bored. She’ll tell you she can’t sing, though, if you ask her about it, since she’s Piper and she’d rather undersell herself than draw too much attention. 

Hazel- Alto. I love alto Hazel and you will pry this head canon from my coffin. Kidding. You won’t. I’ll take it to the grave with me if I have to. Hazel is an alto like Mrs. Lovett from Sweeney Todd, but she’s suited to a wide range of genres (my iTunes library is limited, I admit, to musical theatre, Heather Dale, Three Days Grace, Imagine Dragons, some instrumental tracks from movies, and some other various artists). 

Nico- 100% a tenor. I’d say he sings like Gringoire from Notre Dame de Paris. Listen to “Les portes de Paris” if you want to know what I’m talking about. Or “Lune.” That’s the kind of voice he has. His voice is as much beautiful as it is occasionally unsettling, not quite what it seems it should be. Expressive as hell, like Reyna’s voice, though, and versatile like Annabeth’s. 

Leo- So I want to say he has a voice like the 2001 Romeo et Juliette Benvolio. Somewhat rougher than his friends’ voices. He can do a dramatic solo or a fun party song. Anything goes with Leo. He’ll try any kind of song once. 

Frank- Baritone. Fantastic baritone. He kills roles like Sweeney Todd. There’s no baritone role Frank couldn’t kill, actually. He sings like an angel. He’s also really, really, really shy about singing, so he’ll usually only sing if someone else is singing with him, which is pretty much why his friends will find any excuse to get up with him at karaoke night and pick a song that’s heavy on the baritone and light on everything else. 

These are not quite finalized, obviously. There are several other singers whose voices I would attribute to several other characters, and I couldn’t list everyone for fear of this post getting way too long. So, yeah, DM me if you want to hear any of the alternate ideas I had!
