Birthday Party for Laura/X-23
It's a pretty low-key party, all things considered, and not significantly different than the one Parker or Meg would have thrown in a dorm room for a friend at home, not-exactly-traditional menu not withstanding.
There's music, low enough to talk over (and maybe with a little more folk in the mix than one expects to find a party). Balloons and streamers in purple and blue and red. A place to leave presents. People to meet or catch up with.
And, most importantly, a chance to wish X-23 (or Laura) a very happy birthday.

Re: Mingle with the other guests
For many, many reasons.
Re: Mingle with the other guests
"Are there holidays you do like?"
Re: Mingle with the other guests
"Dean and I spent it with Mrs. Reynolds this year. She's a great cook."
Re: Mingle with the other guests
A slight pause (and a show of thought), and then Meg adds, cheerfully, "Of course, you probably celebrated on the wrong day."
Re: Mingle with the other guests
"Depends on who you ask."

"And probably makes you one of the people who celebrates Thanksgiving in the wrong month, too."

"I suspect that in the grand scheme of things, the date is a lot less important than the celebration, anyway."
Case in point: Laura's birthday.
