Tw: mentions of death

Summary: Tommy used to listen to his mother play the violin either to him, or hear her practice, so when he died, he took it soon himself to learn it, and actually came to enjoy it. But never expected anyone to hear it, so when he was in a VC by himself, he thought nobody would end up joining, so he began to play it. Plus a little gayinnit aye?

Reasoning: I was listening to Fairytail, and the violin part inspired me to write a fanfic on it! Hope you enjoy!

—————————

Tommy, ever since he was younger, Tommy enjoyed singing.

He never sang by himself though, he always sang with his mother as she played the violin

So when she died, he was absolutely devastated.

He kept her violin in his room on display until he turned 7.

She had died when he was five, so it sat, never touched, just gathering dust for two years, until he finally picked it up and began trying to teach himself to play it.

He remembered getting taught the basic notes, and he practically remembers her favourite song off by heart, even if he never knew the cords, or the name of the cords she used besides the basic ones that were in the song, he remembered where she put her fingers though, and how she moved them around over the strings.

He and his mother used to make songs together aswell, used to write lyrics, used to put the notes together.

He remembers those songs, yet not the notes, he remembers when they got played to him, and he sang the lyrics.

———————

He had taught himself one of the songs.

He had been in a vc for a long while, nobody joining, so he thought it was safe for him to pick up his violin and began to play it.

(Song at the top, but change she/her to he/him for the sake of later in the story-)

He sang the song, and he had his headphones off, so he didn't hear the pings of three people joining the call.

Wilbur POV

'Hey Tom saw you were alone yet still talking so-"

My ears were suddenly filled with music

(Also- just wanna say- I don't play the violin- I play a completely different instrument- the bagpipes- so if I use incorrect terminology, thats why, and if you do know the correct terminology, please tell me and I will correct you)

'Nowadays
I cannot find him
But when I do
We'll get a brand new start
I'm in love with a fairytale
Even though it hurts
'Cause I don't care if I lose my mind
I'm already cursed
He's a fairytale
Yeah
Even though it hurts
'Cause I don't care if I lose my mind
I'm already cursed'

He sang.

He looked at Tommy's camera, to see the male without headphones on, singing his heart away, as he played the violin.

He had finished the song, and moved onto a completely different one

Wilbur recognised the song, due to it being popular, but he didn't change the lyrics at all.

(This, but imagine it with lyrics-)


The thing is, Tommy had come out to me a while ago, so I was guessing he just had a crush on a guy, or something, and they either fell out or the other guy realised he didn't like guys anymore? I have no clue.
But I knew the basses of it, Techno and Phil on the other hand had absolutely no clue.

I decided to message him, seeing that his phone was right next to him.

*Tommy! We're in the VC,  never knew you could play, but anyway, Phil and Techno are mega confused on why you are singing songs about liking a guy so-*

Tommy looked up, and a look of surprise went over his face.

He looked at his computer's left monitor, to see that Wilbur was correct, three people were in the call excluding him, and his eyes went wide.

He walked over to the computer and sat down on the chair, putting the headphones on.

'None of you are streaming right?"

'No, none of us are, we were planning on asking you though so that's why we are in the call"

'Ah, sure I guess"

'First, can you answer a few questions for me?"

'Depends what they are"

'Okay- so, one: why were they both about guys? No judge just wanna know, two: when did you learn to play the violin?" Techno asked

'And why didn't you tell me you could sing? We could have totally sung a song together and shit!"
Wilbur added

'Okay, so, one: I am not comfortable saying why, two: I began to learn it when I was seven, and three: I have no clue- chat has never heard me sing properly before, I have sung nicely before, but never properly, so I guess I just wasn't ready for it"

'What do you mean you are not comfortable telling them about you know what? You told me-"

'You are different, I have known you longer and a respect you a bit more- no offence though- it's just- yeah"

'Mhm, none taken, don't worry"

'So let me tell them when I am ready Wilbur, alright?"

'Alright Tommy, now, shall we start streaming? You don't have to stream it if you don't want to by the way, Toms"

The ending was a bit rushed- sorry about that- btw, expect more stories! I had surgery around my mouth today so I get to take a break from everything for a while, which means i have more time to type stories!
