Oh my Ra I finally wrote for Hetalia!
I'll explain this. While on YouTube one night I came across a video that had Phantom of the Opera songs put to the characters. "Overture" was Austria's. So that inspired me to write an eight-part drabble using the songs to some of my favorite pairings.
I do not own Hetalia or Phantom of the Opera.
Edelweiss: Overture; When Vash hears Roderich playing he is hypnotized by the sound of the haunting melody.
The hallowed halls of the Austrian Manor went from being filled with an eerily still silence one would fear breaking, to being filled with the haunting echo of a pipe organ. At first one would find the music fear-inducing; their hearts skipping a beat at the first note and invoking the wildly insane thought of the player summoning demons from Hell. But for Vash Zwingli the haunting melody was hypnotizing, able to draw him to the player from anywhere in the elaborate estate. Under the dominating music came the echo of slow footsteps as the owner made his way from the second floor deck down to the basement where the haunting melody originated at the hands of the player. Each step was unconsciously in time with the music, step for step, note for note; the movements of the blond caused his short hair to sway, and if one were to look at his striking green eyes, they seemed glazed over, as if he really were hypnotized by the song.
Below the foundation of the manor a basement was built into the ground deep enough to hold the Gothic style pipe organ; the walls were stone and the entire room was designed to replicate Erik's lair in Phantom of the Opera. It showed in the way the red drapes hung with the ends bunched on the floor which was covered with a red and gold patterned rug; around the room were iron candelabra stands holding three candles each, all lit setting the atmosphere. Posture perfect as always, Roderich Edelstein only need move his fingers, hands, and arms as he played; the candlelight reflected on his perfectly combed brown hair and his violet eyes were glazed over as if hypnotized by his own playing. The flickering light through his glasses helped.
Vash entered the room setting his gaze on the Austrian and, for a moment, believed he was looking at the infamous Opera Ghost. It was fitting one could say; they were both musical geniuses. But any madness they shared, Roderich's only surfaced when he played that haunting melody in his underground lair.
Roderich's recital of the Overture was a spell, and Vash was its hypnotized victim.
"Playing again, my Phantom?"
"Only for you, my Angel.
