Jackie POV-
They were sitting in the town square, talking about the normal things, when a man marched into the square holding a folding chair. He cleared his throat, made a sound like he was coughing up phlegm, and shouted, "Hear ye, hear ye!" Nobody looked at him. He sighed, pulled out a megaphone (where did that come from), stood on the chair, and shouted louder through the megaphone, "HEAR YE, HEAR YE!"
The entire square looked at him- maybe 50 people. He continued. "MY NAME IS SAMUEL SEABURY, AND I PRESENT FREE READINGS ON THE FEMINIST REVOLUTION!"
Alexandra's eyes narrowed. "I swear..."
Seabury cleared his throat again and took a breath. "Heed not the rabble, who screeeem revolution..." Everyone cringed at his voice. "They have not your interests at heart!"
"Oh my god, tear this dude apart." Muttered a dark skinned woman near them.
"Chaos and tears shed are not the solution, don't let them lead you astray!
"This is ridiculous!" Said Alex, her face turning pink as the man continued.
"For shame... For shame!" Alex abruptly stood up.
"Alex don't!" Jackie grabbed desperately at her but Alex was already ranting.
Over Samuel's cringe worthy song, Alex began to speak.
"He'd have you all unravel at the sound of screams, but the revolution is coming and the underdogs are gonna win this!
Seabury's voice trembled now. "They have not your interests at heart-"
"It's hard to listen to you with a straight face!"
They continued back and forth, Seabury just repeating the same lines and Hamilton roasting him and proving him wrong all at once. She was impressive.
Eventually Seabury broke down in tears and ran off, his tail between his legs. Alex just stood there, probably wondering how she just did that. Then, the whole square erupted into thunderous applause. Alex laughed and smiled. Jackie high fived her. "Alex, that was fucking amazing. I can see why your essays are so popular!"
Back at their apartment, they were all still in awe over Alex's skills when it came to debate. They even made a game out of it! They would present each other with a question, and then one would provide their opinion on it.
Laf asked Alex and Heather what they thought about transgender soldiers not being able to serve in the military, and Alex absolutely destroyed Heather's argument. When she was done, she asked, "do you personally stand by your argument, or did you do that just for that game?"
"It was just for the game, don't worry." Said Heather. "I'm going to my shop. I've got a project I wanna finish."
"I think I'm going to bed, I'm fatigue comme merde." She yawned.
"Me too." Said Jackie and Alex and the same time. They laughed.
"Goodnight guys. See you in the morning."
