-"Then we all go back to our corners, don't we?"- Well, you wouldn't have to if the writers didn't keep making you fight each other. Not that you've got any high-ground in that arena, Beasty.
Boy, this story really just sort of throws up its hands at the end, doesn't it? Between this and AvX, "Phoenix will fix it all if you just rules-lawyer her into it" is becoming the new "a wizard did it."
The Phoenix didn't actually have to do anything though... strange way to resolve all of this. And being the embodiment of life does not mean only championing human life... animals should be fine too. So it's strange that the Phoenix is so human-centric here, but let's call that Jean's influence.
yeah most likely, it's a fair plot point for a cosmic entity to have bias I guess, a nice side effect of possessing another sentient creature, it begins to think on their terms too.
wish they'd play with that concept within the actual text though.
Founded by girl geeks and members of the slash fandom, scans_daily strives to provide an atmosphere which is LGBTQ-friendly, anti-racist, anti-ableist, woman-friendly and otherwise discrimination and harassment free.
Bottom line: If slash, feminism or anti-oppressive practice makes you react negatively, scans_daily is probably not for you.

The X-Men have some messed up values these days.
