Third Shard [Action]
Once upon a time...
There was a prince who was locked in a tower. His kingdom had been conquered by a dark king who was known for his ravenous greed, and he sealed off the prince from his people whom he loved. Alone and desperate, the prince was overwhelmed by sorrow until a miracle appeared. A swan had come to his window, and her feathers concealed letters from the people he missed so dearly. Day after day, the swan returned, bringing him more words of hope and well wishes from his people. These letters helped to rebuild the prince's heart, and he started to have hope again. One day, the swan decided to fulfill that hope. She lent him her wings, and with them he soared to freedom. The wings wore down as he reached land, and the prince was free to lead his people again. It was only then that he realized that by giving up her wings, the swan had trapped herself in his place. She was never seen again, and with that, all of the happiness that the prince had found began to crumble away.
In fact, it is said that this prince never smiled again...

[Today, Mytho's wandering around town has something closer resembling meaning to it. Sure, he doesn't live near enough Duck to immediately notice her absence - nor does he come across her path on a daily basis. But he's still searching for her, without stopping. He goes around various locales around the town such as the library, the bakery, the fountain and most places around the plaza. And throughout his search, he specifically looks sad. He had felt that heart shard return to him the previous night, and that emotion - the emotion of sorrow - has been weighing on him ever since.
He will often stop passerby to ask them:]
Excuse me. Have you... seen Duck?
[Or, he may instead ask.]
Do you know... where Tutu is?
[Everyone knows Duck and Tutu, right? But all along, in a way, he knows. They're both gone. He's been able to feel it, ever since he woke up. He's not sure why both Duck and Tutu are associated with his feeling... He just knows that it feels like a piece of his heart is gone.
The search is over when night falls. He sits at the edge of the fountain, wallowing in this sorrow. And wishing he had the strength to try to dance.]

[But at least he's trying, so A for effort?]
no subject
[A for effort indeed. And Mytho then moves alongside Emil, gently taking his hand for a moment to try to guide though a graceful movement lunging forth.]
no subject
... well, it's not the most graceful step ever, though it's at least a little better than his previous attempts.]

So... why exactly are we dancing, anyway?
no subject
To express such an emotion...
no subject
no subject
We can both dance in this manner...
no subject
[He's curious.]
no subject
Dancing has never felt either easier or more difficult for me.
I just end up getting these feelings... that I have more to express.
[Mytho has always been an expert at dancing, at least in a technical sense. Without his heard shards, he was all technique and no emotion. Now? His dancing is the same for the most part, except that the emotion radiates through.]
no subject
[He's still trying to work this whole "not having emotions and then regaining them" thing out in his mind when it comes to what it affects for Mytho.]
no subject
[He's not sure, himself. He doesn't have much of a mind to think of the "why". He just does.]
