I’m always on here talking about fakiru from Fakir’s perspective but actually it’s Duck’s turn.

Thinking about how Duck spends the majority of the show passively (if not actively) suicidal. She's just a duck so her life is worth so little to her—in the first episode she says she'd trade her life for a single dance with Mytho. She isn't even especially upset about vanishing as Princess Tutu if it means Mytho will get a chance to be happy.

But then in her pas de deux with fakir she says this:

It’s his influence—the influence of someone who truly, wholly loves her as opposed to mytho and rue who only know facets of her—that inspires her to want things for herself. He’s the one who insists she should be around to see Mytho smile.

Duck would put her life on the line to help anyone, meanwhile fakir would move heaven and earth to keep her safe. Being around someone who treats her like she’s the entire world contradicts her deeply rooted self image issues, and that influence culminates in this scene. It ISN’T okay for her to disappear for the sake of her friends. There are things she wants to do, there are people who would miss her. For the first time she truly and honestly wants to live, and she no longer sees that as a selfish choice.
