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.

Meg may infer that, at least to a point.

Sometimes words are not only challenging, they're also a little unnecessary.

"And the spaghetti's good, too."

"Yes. And the soup."

You know, in case Meg has not had any yet.

"And the root beer floats."

But not the milkshakes.

"But most importantly, the company."

Even better than the root beer floats.

"Yes," X says.

She's a little fierce about that.

Go figure.

"I should let you go talk to everyone else," Meg says.

"But I'm really glad you let us throw you the party."

It is a very great pity that X can't smile.

But maybe she tries. Kind of.

"Thank you."

Any other words are too hard. But it's good. Really.
