For me this would have all the feeling of going back to an old ex out of comfort. Comfort is safe and easy, but it lacks any significance. A lot has happened since they were together. A LOT. It's been over a decade. It's not a case like Jean and Scott where one has been dead while the other has lived. They had clearly grown apart after the start of Uncanny Avengers, and Lorna grew much stronger as a leader and a person because of it. Their relationship was never the same after the Annie incident and I think that is ok. They both need to move on as it won't do any of them any good retreading the same tired relationship they have tried 4 times already.
Plus Alex CLEARLY is still in love with Maddie.
