All-New X-Men 8
Mar. 6th, 2013 03:17 pmThe Warrens just held off a HYDRA attack on Avengers Tower long enough for the team to return and mop up the encounter.

Oh Hank is SOOOO busted.

Called it.

I admit, even if them as a couple confuses me, this is the exact vibe I see around Kitty and Bobby. (:

I'm sorry, did... did someone just resolve a superhero conflict by being polite and thinking about what they were doing?
...I don't know where I am.
Also, skinny young Scott trying to walk with authority is adorable. :3

Date: 2013-03-07 01:09 am (UTC)This has been done a million times, but here goes.
Emma is from a wealthy family from the Boston area. Her family owns a mansion in Newport.
Wealthy old money Boston families with Newport mansion-owning have something called a "Boston Brahman" accent, which is basically a "refined" Boston-accent + British posh slang.
Similar to JFK, that's the intention for what Emma is supposed to sound like. The only person who writes her as British is Warren Ellis, and that's because (as a Brit) he obviously doesn't understand how New England regional sub-accents work.

Indeed, they certainly have good friend-chemistry

Date: 2013-03-06 08:25 pm (UTC)I think we see the basis of the Kitty and Bobby relationship here.

Date: 2013-03-06 09:22 pm (UTC)i still don't like the idea that they might replace our scott with him. i mean, he wants to make things up? but studying what happened and going through it are two diffferent things... i am torn... these young x-men look on and see all that has gone bad... and think... well i never would have done that. i could do it beter, i am more pure... except, it's the pain, it's the experience that make people who they are. the good and the bad. I hope Jean is at least looking at the multiple perspectives...

Date: 2013-03-06 09:18 pm (UTC)yeah i still hate how we got here.... i still hate that the dialogue that Kitty and Bobby are spouting is essentially correct... the Avengers think of the x-men as children that need to be watched... umm what about THIER KIDS?!?!?! What about The Fantastic Four? do they need to be watched?
ugh i am sorry... i am still so bitter...

Date: 2013-03-06 11:46 pm (UTC)See, that was the part that made me laugh the most. :D
And yeah, the Avengers don't have THAT much of a leg to stand on, but considering what Hank did bringing the O5 to the present, he has just about as much as they do.

Date: 2013-03-06 11:27 pm (UTC)Downright cruel. And all the other X-Men let it happen... so the lines of morality between Scott's X-Men and Logan's X-men just became almost non-existant.

Date: 2013-03-07 01:05 am (UTC)Spoilers.
Angel was in tears at finding out what happens to him, and demanded he go back to his home time, the expected debate happens, and he's getting really emotional. Then he isn't. Jean went into his mind and shut him down, so now he's pleasant again.
The reason this angers me so much is that it's all spiralling out of control so much that the present adults *need* to send these kids back home, yet they're just all really giddy at the idea of Scott seeing his past self. They're losing the legs they have to stand on.
And Jean got really dark real quick... though in retrospect, a younger more immature Jean would do something like this. I say that because I remember when adult Jean went on a rampage through Emma's mind.
That being said, I really love where this is going.

Date: 2013-03-07 05:34 pm (UTC)Uh oh... wasn't Jean doing something almost exactly like that to Kitty Pryde's parents when the school was first recruiting her one of the early warning signs that she was about to go off the deep end?

Date: 2013-03-07 06:21 am (UTC)Nothing makes sense anymore.
A telepath "hero" doing something bad to a friend with her power? Okay, that makes more sense. (Seriously, writers always seem to make telepaths do bad things with their powers even if they are ostensibly heroes).
