But she's dead enough to Logan and Scott, who you'd think would be the two people to be half waiting for her to show back up.
I think she's dead dead, just not permanently dead. Not like the Buffyverse, where they'd go get her, or anything. She'll come back in her own time.
At this point, do people even make a big deal about Jean dying anymore? I can imagine the first couple of times they'd be pretty broken up about it, but by now I'd just send a card. Flowers, maybe, if it was a violent death this time.
(Hey Holli -- did you post your bit o' fic in LJ yet?)
(yup)
Part of the reason she died was so Scott and Emma could get together. She wasn't even bargaining on too long a mourning period.

Couldn't she and Scott just have agreed to have an open marriage? Dying so that your husband can snowball is well off the generosity meter.
Scott would never have an open marriage. It wouldn't be proper. Psychically cheating on your wife? Well, maybe. Leaving your wife and kid? Why not?
Polyamory would be declassé, though.

Scott would never. He has issues about that. His father abandoned him and Alex and their mom to go superheroing about the galaxy.
Scott would never.
Tell that to Madelyne Pryor.
