[Laura's been trying to adjust. Part of her wonders if coming here wasn't a grave mistake — she'd come thinking there are more like her, people who would accept her more willingly, and in a way, that's true. However... There are a few... annoyances. Grievances. Her rather overworked case worker Linda has been making sure she goes to school. Today isn't the best day for school, though. She's quiet and 'weird' and the other children usually aren't fond of her and her quiet but present danger.
And for Laura, well. She doesn't do well with anyone 'teaching' her. She's had too much of 'teaching' the last eleven years of her... eleven years.
She may or may not have punched another kid in the eye.
She may or may not have ditched school.
And now she sits on the top of a rather tall and dangerous brick-ish wall in the city, her feet hanging precariously off the edge. Close by, the shadow of a tram wooshes by, and somewhere out there, Linda the Case Worker is having a heart attack. Laura, however, seems more puzzled and annoyed than anything. She sits with a potentially stolen bag of mini-donuts, her favorite glasses pressed up on her forehead and her lovely albeit mildly damaged unicorn shirt clear and vibrant.]
Why do children have to go to classes?
I can learn outside of school.
[There are mean children that exist. She's never ran into children who are so exclusionary; after all, mutants had to stick together.
And teachers aren't bad, but something about the set-up bothers her, in ways she's not sure how to explain.
Maybe it's harder to blend in than you'd think. Not that she had gone into this with any high hopes.]

And then holds up the half-eaten bag of donuts. Obviously, these.
These are important, to start with.]

Can't argue with you on that one.

And saw fireworks; they smell bad.
video
Smells kind of like rotten eggs, right? That's the sulfur in them.
video
I didn't understand why people used them.
... I guess they're pretty. Like... Vegas.
video
People use them to celebrate holidays, usually. On Earth, they were invented in China thousands of years ago to use at their festivals.

... Festivals?
¿Cuáles son esos?
Re: video

I meant... what are festivals?

[This begs the question how someone her age hasn't yet learned about festivals, but details.]

[Everyone can have one this way; it's inclusive. It's pleasant.
Sometimes, the world isn't so bad.]

[She's clearly very helpful.]

[This is the easiest quiz yet.]
Re: video
I ask because for me, it's 2370.

[She'll maybe be alive then; Logan lived for a very long time, and if her claws don't cause any medical issues like her father had from his whole body... Well. It's possible she'll live into the hundreds, two-hundreds, three-hundreds...? Or did she gain that ability at all? She supposes she won't know until she notices everyone else getting old around her.]
Did a lot change?
Re: video

Mutants?
video
[She doesn't look too enthused by the reaction, though.
...It's sounding a lot to her like they're going to fade out.]

There haven't been any other hominids on Earth on thousands of years. But you have to remember that not everyone here shares the same history. Something that happened on your Earth may have not happened on mine and my present may not be your future.
