#also emma and jean should be the next generation of Homoerotic Rivals Who Disagree Fundamentally

[smallblueandloud]

sigh not sure if i nailed anyone’s characterization in that last post but whatever. comics characterization is so inconsistent that i can find an issue to support any characterization i come up with. just kind of frustrating because i think... things are so inconsistent that i’m attached to multiple characterizations of people? that can’t always be reconciled? so like, i love forceful righteous scott who’s a dumbass who refuses to see he’s ever wrong but i also love aching imperfect scott who never trusts his own decisions. emma and jean should be people who support him and help him look at his choices from an outside perspective (giving him valuable feedback and helping him be more confident) but also they should be a little selfish and never willing to admit they’re wrong. jean should be a kind and just leader who it comes naturally to and only feels that Hunger because of the influence of the phoenix force but also jean should constantly have to pay attention to that Hunger which has always existed inside of her and is the REASON why the phoenix force sought her out. there’s just So Much potential and i want it ALL but it means anything i read or write is gonna feel inconsistent and that frustrates me
