Birthday Party for Laura/X-23

Feb 26, 2009 21:12

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 ( Read more... )

Meet someone new, catch up with an old friend, or do both.

"Tom and Door usually pick my teachers for me, but I got to know Laura, and she was on Security, so I knew she had to be good at fighting. Lan had just left, and he taught us both sword lessons, so I asked her and she said yes."

"That seems a very sensible way to go about things," Meg says.

And it does.

Meg approves of sensible ways to go about things.

". . . who are Tom and Door?"

Re: Mingle with the other guests smallestopener March 1 2009, 03:54:46 UTC

"Door's my older sister and Tom's her husband. They take care of me, because our parents were murdered. It's okay, though. They take really good care of me."

Re: Mingle with the other guests ever_noteful March 1 2009, 03:58:08 UTC

Meg's expression gets very serious.

It's not okay, but she's not sure that would be a helpful thing to say.

"I'm glad you have someone to take really good care of you," Meg says.

A pause.

"Older sisters can be good for that."

Re: Mingle with the other guests smallestopener March 1 2009, 04:09:02 UTC

"She's the best sister in the whole wide world."

Re: Mingle with the other guests ever_noteful March 1 2009, 04:16:27 UTC

"She sounds like it," Meg says.

And there's nothing, really, in her expression or her tone, to suggest that there could be anything about the topic of big sisters that would be awkward for her.

She smiles.

"The only problem here is that you might have to specify which world.

"There seem to be a lot."

Re: Mingle with the other guests smallestopener March 1 2009, 04:23:20 UTC

She thinks about this for a moment and then she starts laughing.

"She's the best in all the worlds!"

Re: Mingle with the other guests ever_noteful March 1 2009, 04:28:17 UTC

"That's a good answer," Meg says.

"You'll have to tell her you decided that."

Re: Mingle with the other guests smallestopener March 1 2009, 04:37:57 UTC

"She knows. I tell her lots."

Re: Mingle with the other guests ever_noteful March 1 2009, 04:44:05 UTC

"That's good," Meg says.

A slight pause.

"Did you get a root beet float yet?"

Re: Mingle with the other guests smallestopener March 1 2009, 04:45:20 UTC

She's eyed the table where they are being made. "I think I'm going to go get one right now."

Re: Mingle with the other guests ever_noteful March 1 2009, 04:49:49 UTC

"Can you do me a favor?"

Meg leans forward and lowers her voice to a whisper. "I need someone to do root beer float quality control. Once you have one, will you let me know if there is anything wrong with them?"

Re: Mingle with the other guests smallestopener March 1 2009, 04:59:20 UTC

"Sure, Meg!"

Ingress can totally do that.

"I'm sure they'll be delicious, but I'll let you know if not."

She waves as she skips over and makes a float. They are delicious, indeed.

Castiel, much like the guest of honor, finds himself drifting to the fringes of the party.

It provides a better vantage point for observing.

And then there are the balloons.

Castiel is examining a purple one with great interest.

Re: Mingle with the other guests ever_noteful March 2 2009, 01:27:37 UTC

Meg has come over to say hello, but she's also learned that when Castiel has found something new to examine, sometimes all you can do is wait till he's done.

(It's okay; she could use a moment's break, anyway.)
