John Laurens 

Awesome 1754-1782 abolitionist soldier with enough salt to bury Aaron Burr alive. Didn't love turtles that much, but instead everything in nature. Kicked ass, used sass, all of it with extra class. Seriously, that guy was a reckless little shit though. Really wanted to form a black regiment, but never got to do that. Killed himself smartly at an ambush on the 27th of August 1782, and even invited some ladies to watch the battle. Very super totally highly probable that he was in love with Francis Kinloch and Alexander Hamilton.
Basic bi!ch: Omg John Laurens was such a innocent turtle boii and helpless GIRL WITH A DICK cinnamon roll uwu

Laurens: *floats down from heaven, shoots the b!tch, salutes to everyone normal in the room, dissapears*
