The closest relationship Jean and Rogue have ever had was in the 90s animated series, and even then it wasn’t much.

Are you sure? I know early on the TK was colorless and was drawn as a black/white outline. When Neal Adams took over, he had her TK take on a pink signature in X-men 59 which to my knowledge was the first time it got a visual change
This followed his beautiful rendition of her TP in #56 which he also had pink

X-men 13 establishes that Juggernaut is highly resistant to mental attacks but Jean is able to breach his helmet in #46 after she gets access to her TP
LOL at the text saying she was teleporting him in the first scan
I kind of like the squiggly line for Jean's tk powers. I know it wouldn't work today, but I have a soft spot for it also. I recall an early issue of X-factor (maybe when they fought the alliance of evil??) where Jean's powers were depicted with the squiggly lines (I ran across the issue just the other day - Jean was in the green/yellow costume).
Speaking of X-factor I am prob the only person who liked the green/yellow costume (both versions).
Lastly, the next X-men Monday article for AIPT is going to focus on the 05 and you can submit questions on twitter for it. I've always loved the 05 and I like to read the original X-men days and the OG X-factor days often.
I actually like the green/yellow X-Factor costume too, but I hate the full headsock. If we have to have the mask framing her face... fine, okay. I guess. But I can't stand when it covers her hair, which is basically iconic for her.

Her telepathy is not on Jean or Emma's level but her possession powers rivial Professor X. Full on telepathy (mind reading, psionic bolts etc...) is more an undeveloped power that Emma was teaching her to use. Unlike other X-Telepaths, Xi'an didn't gain full on telepathic abilities till she was in her 20s.
Also, love that look for Jean.
Some of us wait, some of us act.
