There is something strange, and possibly dangerous in the Nexus. With all the other strange and crazy things going on, it might be hard to notice it.

She wants to feel it. And maybe that's why, for once, the ginzuishou's light accepts her and she accepts it. The sigil of Mercury blazes blue on her forehead as her clothes are replaced by an elegant gown. She steps towards the unconscious Usagi as if she knows what she'll do once she reaches there.

"So this is all only for her sake," Princess Mercury says flatly. Just like the princess and the prince; of course it is.
"Well, good luck to you, then!" The tone implies you'll need it; ridding her own world of Beryl and Metalia hadn't been easy. And it hadn't been the end.

"It's true, the boy inside me, the prince I was. He was selfish. He saw the woman he loved taken from him, and chose to kill himself. I don't remember all of it, but I know that much." He shakes his head. "I won't be him. I am already a different man, and I can feel it. None of us are alone."

Mercury shoots Usagi a slightly skeptical look (she hasn't seen much proof of Sailor Moon's power ever protecting the planet, after all), but says nothing. It's Usagi's own world to ruin, or save if he can.
