Re: Marvel Now/ReEvolution Ongoing Discussion (Spoilers)
I just had another though about young gay Ice Man.
Young Jean grey tells Bobby to stop being a pervert catter-hollowing at all the girls/women at the school.
He'd just yelped at the top of his lungs "I nominate Professor Majik as Professor of Hotness!"
Drake is like a less evolved version of Bluto from Animal House, but who cannot blame even a ounce of his behaviour on alcoholism.
(Remember how a Jedi Mind trick works?)
Jean "Why do you do that? You're gay."
Bobby "I'm not gay."
Jean "Yes, you are gay."
Bobby "Yes, I am gay."
(And then they hug it out because he's so much happier to admit that he is gay.)
Is it at all possible that for some obvious reason, like fair play and turnaround, or maybe to avoid another 15 years of continuous disgusting thoughts leaking in her direction about how he wants to motorboat the freckles off her boobs, that in that moment she "made" him gay?
Just flipped a switch.
Whammo he's gayo.
(Yes telepaths can do that, and I'm sure I've see it done somewhere else before in fiction, but it was making homophobes gay, not making tactless assholes gay. Although if it's just his orientation that has been fiddled with, and little all else, then Bobby is most likely to still be a jerk about how he likes/wants to objectify men too?)
This sounds like a first step, Marvel Girl is taking towards becoming the new Onslaught.
(Which is still better than being the old Dark Phoenix again.)
