Birthday Party for Laura/X-23

[noteful]

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.

Jamie continues to eat his garlic bread, with a maddening lack of perturbation.

"You'll get yourself sick," she says, finally. "Vanessa'll get mad."

"No, she'll say I'm still healing and I need to regain my strength," Jamie says - with his mouthful once again - and taps his right arm meaningfully.

"...overeating will not fix your arm," Helen tells him, somewhat condescendingly.

And reaches around to grab a piece of garlic bread herself.

What, she hasn't tried to yet!

"Starving won't help it either," Jamie retorts.

And just looks smug when she grabs a piece. See, Helen, it's alluring!

"You're hardly starved by now."

She inspects the piece, takes a manageable bite of it, and chews it thoughtfully.
