Jean Grey: Phoenix/Marvel Girl Appreciation 2020

Well that definitely is not true

this is called mentoring, not a friendship

this is called mentoring, not a friendship

A person can be friends with their mentor and in fact that word is even used in the scan. Xavier mentored Jean....are they not friends? Storm mentored Kitty...are they not friends?

Xavier and jean had a long relationship, Emma and Jeen no, it was basically only mentorship

[Veitha]

They had bonded and were friends, it's in the page. And Jeen was nice to Emma in Blue after Mothervine. Emma also helped Jeen against the Phoenix.

[Devaishwarya]

Exactly!!!!

I wouldn't even go so far as to rationalise the polyamory.

They're grown adults who've been written in all kinds of messy relationships involving marriage, time travel, possession, death, clones, philandering etc...now, in this era, they've just decided to switch it up a bit and push the envelope further and explore a different option.

Try something new.

No need for the mental gymnastics and holy water.

again it was mentorship and people are trying to make it bigger than it was just for the sake of OOC head canon

Regardless of what you thin it was, teen Jean clearly did not hate Emma. Once they were allowed to get closer, she was fine with her and it makes sense why it would influence current Jean being receptive of her in a way that wouldnt have worked if she was plucked out of Morrison's run without this new context

They literally say on-page that they just became friends. I trust the words of Mindee Cuckoo over you.

[Jackraow21]

Head canon is denying a hot, mutual attraction because you don’t like it. Just saying...

She did not hate, but had a fall out becaus eof the inhumans and only because of fans that bunn made her being more soft on the end

there is nothing new, if it is same people.

People are just forcing it because bad things happened, it means very little. bad things happen on very relationship and poly is not a development, it is regression for the characters involved

Mentorshio isn't friendship and it ended because mass murder
friendship for one panel LOL makes me laugh loud

That beer scene, Gorgon/Wolverine scene etc re-enforced that.

[spirit2011]

That was forced as hell without any development.

easy how people accept bad writing

[Jackraow21]

Bad writing is still canon. LOL.

That is such a hazy statement. You know what, Jean should become a serial killer. That would be something new
