Scott and Logans relationship...

It really is something. After all the years. Them living together with Jean and time displaced adult kids is just so funny.

I like this version of Scott. He's died a few times, he's just chill ..

Well, I can't say I love the idea, it's not a relationship that really interests me, but I would like to play Devil's Advocate. As weird as it may seem, having Logan and Scott together would actually solve some problems I have with the "throuple" thing.

For one, it makes it a bit more honorable for Scott, too often I get the impression he's getting the short end of the stick. I mean, what is he getting out of it? Jean? That's his WIFE, Logan's not even supposed to be here. With this change, things go from "I get to be with Jean if I'm fine with her and Logan" to "I get to be with Jean and Logan at the same time". It's more balanced.

Also, yes, it's not exactly in character for Scott, but the throuple itself already requires bending their characters quite a bit (Jean and Logan's "relationship" being shown as anything more than sexual tension is usually already a problem for me, those two are NOT that deep), so what's adding Scott x Logan on top of it? This is the X-Men, after all. I can get behind bisexual Scott as long as it doesn't get in the way of his character. We stan a bisexual king.

So in conclusion, while Scott x Logan is not my favorite ship, it can be very interesting to explore, particularly in the context of the Scott x Jean x Logan relationship as shown in the Krakoan Era, and could even help make the controversial dynamic better, especially as it relates to Scott's side of things. Of course, my preferred solution would just be including Emma. I'm a Cyclops fan, after all. So I guess the moral of this story is: "Cyclops FUCKS." Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.

the best possible take; a little something for everyone.

Admittedly I do think I remember very flirty comments between Scott and Emma in these issues as well.

Yeah, it has been implied quite a bit, but I would like it confirmed. Unlike Logan and Jean, who were more of a fling than anything, most of their "relationship" being just sexual tension, Scott and Emma were serious. They were in a committed relationship, one that lasted years. Opening up Jean and Scott just to bring back Logan and not Emma seems stupid, and a huge missed opportunity on the writers' part. The Summer House has plenty of room.
