But imagine...

Sad gryffindors trying to cheer up by telling themselves over and over again that they are brave and that they will get through it. That they will never give up and that they know that they can do it. Sitting in the common room and starring into the fire , reminding themselves that after every night comes a new dawn. They would snuggle themselves into the big, red, fluffy blanket that lie around during winter time and wait for the house elves to tell them that they do a good job. In return the elves would beam at them , get the some hot cocoa and scones and tell them what a kind soul they are. That they can cry, that they don’t have to be strong all the time even though that it what their house is known for.

Helpless hufflepuffs that are curled up in the herbology room close their eyes to inhale the soothing scent of flowers and herbs and spices. Magical plants that shower them in golden, flying drops and wipe away their tears. Fireflies would light up the dark in the room and the flowers would start to glow. The old plants would start to hum and to sing and make the pain of being at a loss go away. Hufflepuffs being comforted by they steady pulse of nature breathing in and out. Hufflepuffs showing their vulnerable side to magical flowers that would bury them in little, colourful pedals and tickle them to make them smile that beautiful smile again.

Clueless Ravenclaws . So when they have a block in their mind they accio their broom into their room and go for a flight just before the dawn. They are joined by testhrals and after the battle of hogwarts almost everyone can see them. They would be in the middle of the pack and be escorted to a safe place in the woods where they could sit down in silence and listen to the sounds of the forest. The creatures would lean into the pupils and comfort them with the presence. Ravenclaws being able to let go and fully relax and start thinking like a normal person again. The animals watching over them and making sure they get back safely.

Lonely Slytherins, when the pressure of making sure to always be the first and the best threatens to break them they sneak out of the castle at night and go down to the lake. They would sit in silence under the nightsky and stars and listen to the swapping of the waves. The merfolk would always watch them and when they deemed the time to be right they would swim to the students and take them by the hand, pull them into the water and swim with them. They would give them gillyweed and they could dive into the dark depths where mystical, magical creatures roamed and glowed and the squid would make sure that they are always safe and they would only be able to leave the lake when they were truly at ease and the voices in their heads were gone.

MAGICAL CREATURES BEING THERE TO HELP THE STUDENTS. MAGICAL BEAST BEING SWEETHEARTS AND CARING DARLINGS TO MAKE SURE THAT THESE TINY , LITTLE HUMAN BEINGS WOULD HAVE A BETTER LIVE THEN THEY HAD.

FRIENDLY REMINDER

The Voices

In the Deaf West Version of the show, the Deaf and Hard of Hearing actors have an additional actor portraying their Voice. These performers dress in modern clothes and appear in the onstage band, as well. However, the Voice actors are not just musical accompaniment, as they interact with their Deaf/HoH counterpart, and—occasionally—other actors, while maintaining different personalities from their other half.

Voice of Wendla/Guitar: Voice of Wendla is always seen close to her other half. She has a very similar personality to her counterpart, but she is much more brave and mature, except when Melchior is involved. She is the only Voice to directly speak to another character: Melchior. When Wendla is taken away for her abortion, Voice of Wendla has to be dragged away by a doctor. The original actress to portray her, Katie Boeck, says that she sees the Voice of Wendla as an angel.

Voice of Moritz/Guitar: Voice of Moritz tends more to the original Broadway production than his Deaf counterpart, who is cool and collected for the majority of the show. Voice of Moritz is Moritz’s inner rockstar, and dresses the part. He’s wild, rambunctious, and could be considered an antagonist, as he is shown pulling Moritz away from Ilse when she tries to save him from killing himself. He has the distinction of being the only non-adult character to not sign “Heaven” in the opening number of the show. Like Voice of Wendla, he has a direct interaction with the protagonist Melchior. Before Moritz’s suicide, Voice of Moritz hands his counterpart a gun and nods, as if affirming that killing himself is the right decision, before walking away. He was originally played by Alex Boniello, who claimed to be Moritz’s inner thoughts.

Voice of Martha/Guitar: Voice of Martha is never seen alongside her other half. She often wanders around the top of the stage, disconnected from most of the action. This was done to show Martha’s disconnect from herself due to her abuse. Like Voice of Wendla, she portrays herself in a much more powerful and mature way than her deaf counterpart, and seems almost bitter. Her original actress, Kathryn Gallagher, has made no official statement on what Voice of Martha is to Martha.

Voice of Ernst/Piano: Voice of Ernst and Ernst have the closest relationship of any pair in the show. They are constantly holding hands and Ernst spends much of the show sitting on his Voice’s piano. Arguably the most innocent character in the show, he is initially uncomfortable and apprehensive about Hanschen’s advances on his counterpart, however, by the end of the second act, he appears to have fallen just as hard for the manipulative schoolboy. Despite this, his happiness is short-lived, as after Ernst and Hanschen kiss, Ernst abandons his Voice in favor of his new love, and willingly walks away from him with Hanschen, thus displaying the end of Ernst’s innocence. The original actor who portrayed Voice of Ernst, Daniel David Stewart, says that his character is both a manifestation of Ernst’s innocence, and his imaginary friend.

Voice of Otto/Bass: Voice of Otto, like Voice of Martha, is generally separated from his deaf counterpart. However, their separation is not great, and there is no underlying symbol of disconnect between the two. Most likely, it is due to the fact that Voice of Otto’s instrument for much of the show is a double bass, which makes mobility difficult. Voice of Otto is very cocky and headstrong—going so far as to jump into the audience and interact with theatergoers (usually young women) in a charismatic manner. His existence is acknowledged only by Hanschen, who refers to him as “Bobby Maler,” and is lusted over by him, as well. His original actor,Sean Grandillo, has made no comment on what Voice of Otto is to Otto.
