Debate, Wednesday, September 14, 2016

Steve, posture ramrod straight, was at the front of the class again today, pretending the weekend never happened.

Because he'd been an adorable, tiny ball of rage. And Tony had pictures and all the practice at refusing to feel shame in public situations. It should totally go on his resume. If he wrote one. "Good morning again, class. Hopefully this past weekend was much less exciting for all of you."

"And if you were drinking underage at Tony's party, we won't remember it this one time," Steve added.

Tony was trying so hard not to laugh as he looked at the class and nodded in agreement. "If you drank the beer, I think it was punishment enough," he muttered before clearing his throat like nothing happened. "Alright, so today we'll be debating an issue that has become more commonly discussed in recent years: vaccinations."

Ugh, Bud Lite with Lime.

Steve sighed. "There shouldn't even be two sides on this," he complained.

Guess who lost the toss, kids?

Tony grinned because he got to watch Steve try to pitch for the anti-vaxxers. Today was the best day ever. "Be that as it may, it is the subject of the day. Sorry, Steve." He wasn't sorry at all. "Check out the research on both sides of the debate once you've been given a side."

Watch one teacher's head explode...

"And we'll civilly discuss everyone's God given right to choose to die of preventable diseases because America," Steve deadpanned.

Yeah, just excuse your other teacher for having to duck behind Steve to crack up. This was clearly going to be a fun class today.

She nodded. "It was ugly. I didn't know people could be that cruel to others to get what they want, and I've dealt with bullies."

A shadow flickered across Maria's face as she thought about the question. There was something that made her trust Tony, but she still was worried -- and she definitely didn't want to bring trouble down on him and this place because people were after people she cared about.

"He healed and got back to mostly himself. We're all a little more hesitant to talk about things back home where someone might hear us."
