Uncanny X-Men #173

[iamrman]

Storm gets a cool new look, so of course Kitty has to be weird about it.

With the villains defeated, the time comes for the wedding ceremony.

Oh, Madelyne, you have no idea...

Who is that dapper gent?

Dumb Kitty and her barely repressed lesbian urges.
'Ro rocks the look.
(though it is, admittedly, maybe not the most suitable attire for a traditional wedding.
Always that one person...)

Given the whole debacle with Viper sneaking in and poisoning damn near everyone nearly leading to Rogue dying the X-Men would be a bit more on edge.
Given the whole mess with Mastermind and Phoenix and all that crap, the Professor might use those mighty psychic powers of his just to keep an eye over the wedding to make sure no-one's head is messed with, if only on the grounds of "better safe than sorry". Or at the very least he'd be able to spot when someone's having their head messed with by Mastermind.
But clearly, no.

So... does Mariko have no-one in her life? Aunts? Cousins? School friends? Casual acquaintances? Servants who Viper didn't kill?
She has no-one to fill the role but Kitty?
(Or did they just give her the job to stop her whining about Ororo's hairdo?)

Kitty's reaction is a bit more understandable if it's a case of Stupid Sexy Flansers. At this period of time Kitty was so far in the closet she was in Narnia.

Mariko's family starts with her half-brother the Silver Samurai, so "probably not many left alive" and someone who can phase has a better chance than most of surviving to the wedding.
