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.
Whoa. Good myth.

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

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.

Tell that to Madelyne Pryor.

Turning to diamond strikes me as a dubious superpower.

Not if you're fighting The Glass Baron!

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.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
Did it take money to put her back together? I thought it was a reference to plastic surgery.
She's made comment of her plastic surgery before.

Ita's got you there. Methinks carrying psychic baggage may well bw Mr. Summers' actual mutant power.

Powers Vol IV: Supergroup.
Dude.
Just...dude.
Dude.
Hoo boy, oh yeah. That's FG-3, right? Which has a splash page of a massive evisceration, and ends with Zora's death? Yeah, it's crazy shit.

with a gleam in my eye, and an almost airtight alibi
The next Powers collection isn't all backstory, though. It picks up with our two leads where we left 'em at the end of the tale, with some time having passed and Christian Walker's hair having mysteriously changed colors [tm things I am bitter about for no really necessary or discernable reason].

"When I look at people that I would like to feel have been a mentor or an inspiring kind of archetype of what I'd love to see my career eventually be mentioned as a footnote for in the same paragraph, it would be, like, Bowie." ~Trent Reznor
I like Emma's turning-to-diamond thing because, while it has its bonuses, it's not entirely practical. Genetic mutations aren't required to be practical, and I like that they're recognizing this more in recent years. Perhaps the most deus ex machina thing in X-Men has been that every mutant's mutation is directly beneficial for either fighting crime or perpetrating it. As someone who has an actual genetic mutation himself, I like the much more real idea that sometimes a mutation just is. Beak is a good example; dude looks like a half-chicken, half-human. He can kind of fly, but not well, and he doesn't have any other apparent useful upturns to his mutation. Done soapboxing now. Go about your business.
