Another idea I've been thinking of is that while dead Cyke has had access to all of tie and space in the weird limbo, he was most likely stuck in. In going there he has had several revelations
-The jack/Emma thing
-The ongoing mystery of Hitler!Clops
-WHy Rachel and Storm seem to keep taking naps in the middle of missions
etc..

SCOTT SUMMERS AND EMMA FROST DESERVED BETTER.
Staying with Jean, as Scott basically admitted in Morrison's X-Men is his way of "fulfilling' the whole fantasy he had as a kid. That he would be happy with Jean and in his role as leader. fortunately, that didn't come true. Being with Jean, it doesn't make him happy. But he doesn't want to admit it.
Jean's happy and Scott is supposed to be happy. That's the dream right? Admitting that he doesn't want this anymore, that the dream is just a fantasy destroys a foundation of Scott's world. Which, if you know Cyclops is something he can't do.
The whole romance with Emma initially was Scott being taken advantage of. However, after the passing of Jean, Scott learned to express himself with Emma and move on somewhat.
The thing to keep in mind about Scott is that he literally needs to keep himself in control at all times. If he doesn't people die, either directly as a result of his powers or indirectly from his leadership. It's why Scott keeps leading the team, despite his obvious deterating mental health.
To put it into a simply, the whole Jean romance is essentially a symptom of a larger problem. That problem being Scott can't let himself be human and for once lose control. it always seemed like Scott loved Jean way more than she loved him
Rant
Jean really is the worst character in Marvel, isn't she?
Scemma forever Triangle never.
Scott needs an alpha female like Bettsy.
What woman wouldn't be attracted to Scott? He's 100% alpha male who tells the Avengers to go f*#& themselves.
I want cyclops back free from any ginger women to be his own man.
Logically..
TeenClops should have lusted for Emma & Cuckoos. Especially Stepford Cuckoos! They're teenage triplet clones of his hottest ex, how could he not be?
End of rant
No, no, no. That bit was in the same continuity as the "Cyclops being lectured for taking orders from other women and Wolverine getting all pissy about it" bit. Kid Cable is a corpse and no sexy times with Jean.
On the subject of a biblical showdown between Cyclops and Kid Cable, anyone else thinks Marvel might be setting it up so that Cyclops will kill Kid Cable and not want to lead anything or anyone after committing the deed? That'd be kind of totally epic. Cyclops returning from the dead and having to kill an alternate version of his son who was trying to honor him for the sake of saving the ungrateful, hypocritical jerks who threw him under the bus.

SCOTT SUMMERS AND EMMA FROST DESERVED BETTER.
Yes I've imagined that. Maybe Nate uses this way to save the day in the end of the disassembled event and Scott, Logan and other few x men on earth try to free them from the necessity and bring them back to 616.
Actually I won't say Scott has no real friend among the x-men, they are just more judgmental on his case because
a)Scott may indeed lack some social skills
b)Scott bears more responsibility
c)writers' deliberate character assassination.
"He did it. Summers did it."
"I don't understand...What exactly did Cyclops do?"
"He kept his people alive."
Obviously pure speculation at this point, but I'm guessing he's the one pulling the strings and building a Pax Utopia 2.0 and that he'll go ballistic when Scott and Logan try to convince him it's just not right to build a world without looove.
On the bright side, it does make the whole "disbanding the X-Men after Cyclops' death" hysterically funny.
