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.
Stop means no. And no means no. So . . . stop.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
(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.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Leaving your wife and kid? Why not?
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.

It jacks her strength and durability higher than most everyone on the team.
Juggernaut class isn't half bad.
She has some sort of achilles heel, but I assume she's watching it.
