Mercedes knows that she's good. She's the best, that's just a fact.
Nevertheless, this moment always comes, after she breathes in, before she sings. Each time, it is endless, terrifying, longer than ever. Everything stills; time hovers incandescent, her heart gutters to a stop, the world recedes, and she's falling in place.
Maybe this happens to humble her. Maybe it's a sign that she needs to be more brave -- tougher and more self-centered. More Rachel.
In the silence, surrounded, dwarfed by it, she can only do one thing, all she knows.
I'm divine and my mind expands throughout the universe, Glee, Mercedes Jones

She lifts her head, lets the song go.
