This is heartbreaking.

That first page is actually really pretty. I wonder why the art looks so inconsistent in this series.

So where the Heather of this universe at? Also interesting that Tempo is about to have the most emotionally striking moment in this comic when she is neither Bishop nor one of the students in his War College.

I think Bishop and Tempo are trapped in the pit.

.....that would actually be an extremely interesting twist, ngl.

The more I think about it, the more sense this theory makes! The writer did an interview before this mini started and referenced how in canon, Bishop mentioned that when he was a kid he used to assume the X-Men were all black. If Bishop and Tempo's attempt to block Orchis' attack didn't send them into another timeline but actually due to their proximity to the Pit just activated some kind of automated or subconscious defense mechanism of the island's.....and they've actually been stuck in the Pit this whole time and only ASSUMED they were in this other timeline b/c Heather's powers provide a plausible alternative explanation so they wouldn't have even thought about the Pit being an option for where they were....

It totally makes sense that Bishop's subconscious seeded the framework for the AU the Pit built for his surroundings, while Heather's psyche contributed her idealized version of her dad and the relationship she could've had with him.

And we saw in LaValle's Sabretooth that people in the Pit can absolutely share or inhabit the same mindscape or imagined surroundings.

Wow, this is a great theory. With Orchis on their way to the Pit that would be quite the surprise.
