Throughout Jimmy's entire life, he had never once sung a true canary's song. Not because he didn't have the voice for it-he did-but because he never felt the need. Or maybe, more truthfully, he'd never been given the chance. Every time he tried, someone would tell him to shut up. If he chirped even a little too loud, a heavy blanket would be thrown over his cage, plunging him into darkness, tricking him into thinking it was night. He'd sit there, silent and still, alone in that manufactured night, wondering what he did wrong. He never stayed in one place for long. From one owner to the next, passed around like an afterthought. A decoration. A novelty. Never a companion. Eventually, the canary stopped trying. He stopped chirping. He stopped dreaming of melodies. His voice, once instinctual, dulled into a forgotten thing. He was yelled at so often that, after a while, he started to believe his name was Shut Up. Shut up, they'd say. You're too loud. You're too noisy. And so, he wasn't. He was quiet. Invisible. A canary who never sang.

It was cold that night. Wind rushed past his ears as he ran, his strides as long as he could possibly make them. A heavy snow was falling, draping the city around him in a layer of beautiful, glistening white. But he had no time to admire it. ---- Welcome to RHVAU, also known as Ranchers Hero/Villain AU!

Tango Tek is something of a runaway. He's used to it though, and has never been much more than an outcast. But when he finds a strange little canary in the woods, things might finally change for the better. And one little kiss is all it will take.

If you've ever been alone for vast amounts of time, you'll know that silence is a loner's closest companion, and worst enemy. It may be sought after in large crowds, but it's utterly despised in solitude. It's the absence of joy. It has, and will be the downfall of many to come.

Tango's breathing is hard, and he barely registers anything else besides rage and betrayal. Rage. Tango screams when the explosions reach him, his legs buckling and his arms wrapping around his head and stomach as a pitiful shield. Fear. Tango collapses, his wings no longer buzzing, just twitching. He whines and trembles-this time of regret. Apology. Love? {Or 3 times Tango's heart froze, +1 time he was able to warm up.}

When one day in a kingdom far away, the truth about a prince comes out. When everything he thought he knew came out to be lies. What will tango do? Will he run? Will he stay or will he be the last hope when something goes wrong?
