Gordon was holding his phone to his face, like he had when he'd played that prank on John so long ago. But this time he was looking just a little amazed and smiling softly. "So," he whispered. "Hello world." He glanced over his shoulder, down the hall of bedrooms. "I was gonna go prank Allie, but you guys have to hear this. He's gonna kill me when he figures out I posted this, but guys…this is awesome."

Gordon turned the camera around and softly padded down the hall on bare feet. He edged up to Alan's door and peeked the camera through the crack, the door having not latched.

Alan was stretched out on his bed, lying on his stomach, surrounded by books. He had earphones on, large ones, not just ear buds, but big earphones that helped to block out noise as much as they did create it. He was tapping his pencil on the pages of his book, in time to the music he was singing along to.

The song was a little creepy, actually, but Alan was singing it perfectly. His voice was amazing; no one had heard him sing before—at least, no one aside from his family. Perfectly in tune, with just enough inflection to add to the creepiness of the words of the song.

The Hanging Tree was an odd choice of song to be listening to while doing schoolwork, but man could Alan sing it well.

He was singing it softly, but it was loud enough to be picked up by the camera, and Gordon kept the video going until Alan finished the song and started humming along to the next song that came up, not bothering to sing along.

Gordon pulled the phone away from the door, and then paced down the hall a way. He turned the camera back on himself and grinned. "Guys, my brothers are freaking talented," he said, sounding just a little bit amazed.

The screen went black, but only for a moment, and then Gordon was back, wiggling his eyebrows at the camera before sticking it through the crack of another door.

The gym came into view, the blue mats back on the ground and the equipment pushed out of the way again. Kayo and Scott were standing in the middle of the room, laughing softly. They were both dressed in work-out clothes, although it was clear that they weren't really working out.

Music was playing, and Scott laughed at something that Kayo said. The camera wasn't really picking up the soft words, although the music came through fine. Some old Imagine Dragons song.

And then Scott was dancing, with Kayo trying to follow along.

Scott wasn't strictly dancing ballet, but a mix of hip hop and ballet that was absolutely fascinating to watch. Kayo was laughing, trying to get the moves right, but she kept tripping over her feet. She was known to be a fierce fighter, and one of the most graceful people known to man, but apparently, she wasn't the greatest at dancing. At least not anything more than ballroom.

Scott danced the whole routine, without one flaw, ending in a full split that had Kayo wincing and laughing. He'd done the whole thing in pointe shoes, and most of it on pointe in general.

The dance itself had been incredible and not just a little sensual. Scott was laughing too, by the end, mostly at the fact that Kayo couldn't seem to keep up.

Gordon pulled the phone away, heading down the hall before he turned it on himself and showed his grinning face. "Kayo saw that routine online and wanted to learn it. And I know I make fun of Scott for his dancing, but holy crap. I can't do that."

The scene changed, again, and this time, Gordon was shaking his head and rolling his eyes. He was seated at the kitchen table, and there was music in the background again. This is Me from the old musical The Greatest Showman, if the listeners weren't mistaken. He shifted the phone, just a little, so that could be focused over his shoulder and into the kitchen.

John and Virgil were practically dancing around each other as they cooked, the two of them singing along. It was clear they'd sung this song together before, because there was no faltering when they passed parts between the two of them.

Their voices harmonized perfectly and it was clear that the song had some kind of sentimental value to the two brothers, with the amount of emotion that they put into it. Virgil had established the beat while kneading the dough of whatever it was he was baking, practically drumming on the counter top.

Gordon turned the phone back to himself as the song faded away, smiling and shrugging.

The next few clips were more of Gordon sneaking around and filming his brothers singing or dancing or just showing off their musical talent in general. Some of them were just a few seconds long; it was obvious that Gordon didn't want to be caught filming them. Even if seeing Virgil on the piano hadn't actually been a secret to the rest of the world.

The very last clip, though, was of Lady Penelope's face, smiling slightly. "Gordon didn't want his brothers finding out about his filming them until after the video was posted, but I figured it wasn't fair for you not to see Gordon's talents as well." She paused, eyes shifting to the side a bit. "Although, I won't subject you to his singing voice; I'm not cruel. That talent skipped him entirely."

She turned the camera around, stepping up the kitchen stairs carefully and panning the camera around to where you could just barely see Virgil and Gordon at the piano. Virgil was playing a melodic tune, but Gordon was seated on the floor next to his bench, guitar in hand.

And boy could he play that guitar.

The duet wasn't exactly the most incredible thing known to mankind, but it was a joy to listen to. Most listening could figure out that it was the song Fight Song. Clearly, the musical talent hadn't missed Gordon in this family either.

Penelope kept the camera trained on them for the entirety of the song, and then the video went dark for good.

Dude. This family should start a band or something. Not that they have time for that.

I love the fact that instead of pulling pranks, Gordon was sneaking around and showing off his brothers' talents. Like, still kind of a prank, but really low-key bragging. It's cute.

Note: Okay guys, I'm losing the drive for this fic now. I have, in my head, an idea for another Thunderbirds fic that I may end up writing. Lotsa Virgil and Alan whump to be had in that one…but it's a bit of an intense and long one that I may end up not having time for. On that note, though, I'm having surgery in a few days and then I'll be on bedrest for a while…so time is all I'm gonna have for a bit. Huh. If you guys want a massive crossover fic with Thunderbirds TAG, Thunderbirds OS, Thunderbirds the movie, and a bunch of other shows, let me know. I might just write it.

Also, on another note, I have been doing fanart for this fic, just little scenes from the different chapters. I've never done digital art before, and I'm still learning. (Like the fact that my first couple pictures have extremely low pixel-per-inch ratios…) The only program I have for digital art is the free one GIMP, so…nothing fancy. I also don't have a tumblr, or Instagram, or Twitter or anything so I don't know where to post them, but I'll find a way. I've been having fun. I should have the first couple up somewhere soon and I'll let you know.

Loves to everyone. If I don't update this for a while, I'm not dead. I'm just working on other things. Cheers!
