[Timerra]
♪Fun, fun, fun for all to see!
Gonna sing, sing, sing and go shopping!♪
[Timerra]
♪Can't wait to see all the folks out there...
And dance and shake my hair, hair, hair!♪
[Diamant]
Hello, Princess Timerra. Sounds like you're
having fun.
[Timerra]
Hehe! What tipped you off? I'm actually headed
into town.
[Diamant]
All by yourself? No guards or escorts?
[Timerra]
Yeah! Going incognito. Y'know, you're more
than welcome to come with.
[Diamant]
Thank you, but I'll pass. I was about to start my
daily training regimen.
[Timerra]
Aw! That's a shame.
[Timerra]
♪Woulda been fun to hang with Princey D...
But he's busy training his bo-o-dy!♪
[Diamant]
Hmm.
[Diamant]
I don't mean to meddle in the affairs of other
royals, but...
[Diamant]
If you have time to sing and dance your way
through town, you should have time for training.
[Timerra]
I don't see those things as mutually exclusive.
[Timerra]
Besides, spending time with real people...
It makes me a better princess.
[Timerra]
Just like training makes you a better prince.
See where I'm coming from?
[Diamant]
I don't think I do. I train to grow stronger so I
can better protect my people.
[Timerra]
Then we're one and the same. I hang out with
folks in town so I can protect them.
[Timerra]
After all, can't keep someone safe if you don't
know who they are.
[Diamant]
I see...
[Diamant]
That's an interesting perspective. I'll have to
think that one over...while I train.

[Timerra]
♪Hm hm-hm! Hm-hm hm-hmm...♪

[Diamant]
Having fun again, Princess Timerra?
[Timerra]
Yup, tons! Let me guess─you were training?
[Diamant]
Not today. I'd actually like to join you on your
walk through town. I might learn a few things.
[Timerra]
Ooo, you're going to hang out with me today?
Sweet!
[Timerra]
Come on, then. This looks like a perfect spot
for us to kick things off.
[Diamant]
Here? In this public place? What are we kicking
off, exactly?
[Timerra]
♪Today's the day I sing for everyone!♪
[Timerra]
♪Come on, Prince Diamant! Now join the fun!♪
[Diamant]
M-me?! No, I don't─ Uh, that's not what I...
[Timerra]
♪Oh wow, would you look at that! Who knew
the big, tough prince was a scaredy-cat?♪
[Diamant]
I am the crown prince of Brodia. I am not a
scaredy-cat.
[Diamant]
Let me just, uh...
[Diamant]
♪O Brodia, a land of strength and might.
Evil men a-aren't allowed there...♪
[Diamant]
♪Oh no, now everyone is staring at me.
Princess Timerra, what do I do now...♪
[Timerra]
♪Just keep singing, you goofball!♪

[Diamant]
That was much, much more difficult than my
usual combat training...
[Timerra]
Good. So what did you think of doing things
my way for a change?
[Diamant]
This is how you interact with your queendom?
And you do this all the time?
[Diamant]
I will admit...it was nice to feel challenged.
Like a breath of fresh air.
[Diamant]
That said, I'm probably not cut out for your
brand of leadership.
[Diamant]
I feel better suited to serving through physical
strength and combat.
[Timerra]
Makes sense. To each their own, and all that.
[Diamant]
Thanks for letting me join you, Princess
Timerra. I had fun today.
[Timerra]
I had a good time too. We've both got our
own styles, but we make a pretty good team.

[Timerra]
Prince Diamant. Mind if I tag along during your
training today?
[Diamant]
I wouldn't mind, but I'll warn you...my training
can get pretty intense.
[Timerra]
Hey, I can do more than just sing, you know.
You'll see. This girl's got stamina!
[Diamant]
Oh yeah? If that's the case, let's get started.

[Diamant]
OK! Halfway done. Let's take a breather.
[Timerra]
Huff... Huff...
[Timerra]
You weren't...kidding...about this...being tough...
[Timerra]
I talked a big game, but...I'm feeling pretty
burnt out...
[Diamant]
I'm amazed you've kept up this whole time!
Most people bow out much earlier.
[Diamant]
With that kind of stamina, imagine what a
stricter training regimen could do for you.
[Timerra]
Thanks, but...I'm gonna keep doing things
my way, if it's all the same to you.
[Timerra]
Whew. OK.
[Timerra]
Hey, between you and me...do you think peace
is really possible?
[Diamant]
Ah. That's a big question...and one I often worry
about myself.
[Diamant]
Ultimately, as leaders, I think it's our duty to
believe that peace is possible.
[Diamant]
If we won't fight to secure that kind of future
for our people, who will?
[Timerra]
You're right. The future is uncertain, but that's
all the more reason for us to try.
[Timerra]
I gotta say, talking with you has given me hope
that good things lie ahead.
[Diamant]
I'm glad. We're both heirs to our respective
thrones. If you ever need to talk, I'm here.
[Timerra]
Thanks. I really appreciate that.
[Diamant]
All right, break's over. Time to resume training.
Think you can keep going?
[Timerra]
You know what? I just had a great idea!
[Timerra]
How about we sing the rest of the way?!
Could be a fun challenge.
[Diamant]
Ha! Sounds fun. But, uh...you go first.
