oh my gosh, yes please! mina sounds like the ideal friend for xena; xena would be down to tag along for all of those things, plus any other random hangtimes. i think she'd be a little bit awestruck and jealous-in-a-healthy-and-still-positive kinda way, since xena's always dabbled with creative writing but has yet to finish anything, much less get published, even after all these years because what even is motivation. i think they would gel well as friends!
