Song: The Arbiter, from the musical Chess (I have no idea how to write a drabble for this song... CHALLENGE ACCEPTED, IPOD.)
Fandom: Glee
Word Count: 102

"Chanting gurus, walkie-talkies, walkouts, hypnotists, tempers, fists..."

Jesse St. James does not understand this song. More than that, he doesn't understand this entire musical. He understands two things: the game of chess is boring and makes no sense, and the part of The Arbiter is not the lead. "Jesse St. James is not a featured performer. Jesse St. James is a star, even in a tiny regional theater. Jesse St. James should be playing the American." He refers to himself in the third person as he pleads his case, certain that if he wants the better part badly enough, he'll get it.

Jesse St. James is wrong.

This is beautiful and explains every essence of Jesse.

Thank you! I had to have my sister prompt me on this song... she said only, "Jesse St. James. Go."
