Laura makes a gesture like an aborted shrug; if it seems unnatural on her, it's because it is. She's not used to utilising body language the way normal people are, it's something she had to be taught. A Logan who doesn't remember who he is is probably not the best choice when it comes to sniffing out Candlelighter and Militia business, which is largely what Laura does in the Spatters, and when it comes to dealing with the petty (and not so petty) crime down here that is her lesser priority, she definitely does not need help.
Still, she does actually recognise the offer for what it is. She doesn't say anything -- the I don't need your help hangs clearly in the air, but not saying it is her way of holding out a white flag -- just before she swings up the fire escape of the nearest building and disappears that way, unceremoniously. She doesn't do goodbyes under the best circumstances, and he'll know where to find her if he wants to.
She's the only one in the city who smells like him.
