To the Present (Hamilton reacts+ xreader)

Part 39 defeated

Y/n giggled at the sight of a Anthony Ramos

[Phillip:]
Look!
Grandpa's in the paper!
"War hero Philip Schuyler loses senate seat to young upstart Aaron Burr"
Grandpa just lost his seat in the senate

[Eliza:]
Sometimes that's how it goes

[Philip:]
Daddy's gonna find out any minute

[Eliza:]
I'm sure he already knows}

"I was marching down the street practically kicking people out of my way" Alex pokerfaced

[Philip:]
Further down

[Philip and Eliza:]
Further down

[Philip:]
Let's meet the newest senator from New York

[Eliza:]
New York

[Philip and Eliza:]
Our senator

[Hamilton:]
Burr?
Since when are you a Democratic-Republican?}

"Since he realized we were the cool ones" Thomas grinned and played with his suit tie

[Burr:]
Since being one put me on the up and up again

[Hamilton:]
No one knows who you are or what you do

[Burr:]
They don't need to know me
They don't like you}

"You fault yourself burr, everyone likes me" Alex grinned smugly

[Hamilton:]
Excuse me?

[Burr:]
Oh, Wall Street thinks you're great
You'll always be adored by the things you create
But upstate

[Hamilton:]
Wait

[Burr:]
People think you're crooked
Schuyler's seat was up for grabs so I took it}

"All is fair in government Hamilton" James said quietly

[Hamilton:]
I've always considered you a friend

[Burr:]
I don't see why that has to end

[Hamilton:]
You changed parties to run against my father-in-law

[Burr:]
I changed parties to seize the opportunity I saw
I swear your pride will be the death of us all
Beware, it goeth before the fall}

"And in the end his pride killed him, or was it his legacy" Thomas put his head in his palm

"His legacy" James said

"Well..in all fairness Alex lost everything and all he ever wanted to do was to prove he could do something, be someone worth remembering, worth saving, worth loving, he wanted to leave his mark on the world so people would look up to him, all humans make mistakes Jefferson don't think your a man of no faults" y/n mused and layed back in Phillips chest, ignoring the awes of the men and gaping jaw of Jefferson

Alex grinned to his lap

He didn't throw away his shot and look what it got him
