Steph, Emma used to be part of a group called the Hellfire Club, which seemed to be bent on world domination through manipulation. She also ran a school for mutant teens (Massachusetts Academy) and her kids were called Hellions.

Stuff happened, she became less evil, and she's been working with the X-Men for a while. She had a mental affair with Cyclops (she's a psi, plus she can assume diamond form, and now that Jean's dead, she's all over Cyke.

was Scott and Emma's "psychic affair" as cheesey as it sounds? Also, when/why did Emma become good?

I wasn't actually reading for this part. I think she was helping him out with psychic therapy, and it went from there.

She became good as a reaction to anti-mutant sentiment, most basically. Or she allied with the X-folks, anyway. Since Magneto ran the school for a while, this doesn't even ping the radar of Huh?

Actually, it wasn't that bad. Morrison handled it pretty well, I thought. Also, evidently, Emma is the only licensed sex therapist on the X-staff. Personally, I think every super hero team should have one!

Also, a lot of her former students died, which softened her a bit.

Christ knows the Outsiders could use one... NOT Grace.

NOT Grace.

Roy seems perfectly willing to do the job.

Of course, he seems perfectly willing to do the team, which may be part of the problem.

Y'know, I love my boy, but I'm thinking he's part of the problem, not part of the solution.

And my brain just about exploded at the notion of Roy/Anissa, because hello to the random family issues, what with dead cousins and flakey quasi-parents, and man, BL would Blow. His. Top.

Okay. You there?

Out of my brain. You're hogging the good stuff.

Plei! From Natter:

Tim's chica has birthed a child out of wedlock (an ex's, not Tim's), also in canon

Buh? Please to explain?

I figure this is the best place as any.

Last night when I was flipping channels during one of the intermissions of the hockey game I caught part of Teen Titans---and it was Mad Mod! I couldn't watch the end of it because the game came back on, but it's the first Teen Titans episode I saw. I watched it over at JZ & Hec's with Emmett explaining it to me.

Also after staying away from ebay successfully I've now won two auctions in less than two days. A lot of GCPD and Longbow Hunters will be winging their way to me soon.

Last week in Texas I saw a bit of a marathon of Teen Titans on Cartoon Network while I was channel surfing. To be honest, I love watching the opening sequence to that show.
