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.

"Well, granted, I don't know much about fighting, but I think a lot of the same principles apply. I requires a certain degree of grace."
Re: Hang out with X-23
X considers that.
Carefully.
"I have not tried. Like that."
No mission has ever required it.

"Regular social dancing--what you do in clubs. Ballet. Flamenco--that's what I take. Ballroom dancing."
"If you decide to learn, you might enjoy starting with something like ballroom. There are specific steps to the dances. A formula almost. It might help to ease you into it."
Re: Hang out with X-23
X falls silent.
"I will think. About it."
There are probably classes offered somewhere near her neighborhood. It's like that.
Re: Hang out with X-23
"I enjoy it. It's a pretty good workout, too."
Re: Hang out with X-23
That last bit leaves X looking a little dubious.
"Okay."
Beat.
"I do that already. Exercise."
Re: Hang out with X-23
It's never good to get stuck in a rut.
Re: Hang out with X-23
But, eventually--
"Okay."
Beat.
"Maybe it will be useful."
Somehow. Someday.
Who knows?
