Good morning, internet! Here's a quick thing.
When I was in NJ, I was talking to
harmonyangel about the rumor that the XMFC sequel will draw from Days of Future Past. We were talking about what character could take Kitty's role if they decide once again that it's a prequel and not a reboot, and one of the characters Jen mentioned purely to torture me was Dazzler.
I mentioned this at breakfast on Saturday and the three of us ran with it. JUST IMAGINE IT, GUYS. Dazzler rollerskates in with the mullet-y thing and the weird headband and is like, "I'VE COME TO WARN YOU ABOUT THE APOCOLYPTIC FUTURE. IF YOU ASSASSINATE SENATOR KELLY, THE FUTURE TURNS INTO XANADU!"
Erik is, naturally, horrified and frightened. "Oh god. Oh god, I DIDN'T KNOW. I SWEAR I DIDN'T KNOW! I'll call off the plan--I'll call off being a baddie all together! I'm be a goodie again, I promise, anything but that!"
And Erik goes back to live in the mansion with Chuck and the kids and Dazzler rollerskates backwards into a shimmery rainbow portal of futuristic dystopia.
Fox, I'm willing to sell you this idea for a pittance. Give me a call, okay?
