Hey! I found this very interesting and enjoyed reading your take on Bobby/John.
I was curious about this statement: However they are both powerful, and they could negate each other's power without actually harming the other, if they so chose. Do you think their powers are equal? What about Bobby's ability to create ice out of water in the air (and human body) while John has to rely on an outside source (such as his lighter) for fire? Does this cause an imbalance or does it equalize in another way?
I was looking at it in a more practical view. Pyro has learned to control his powers so much that he can use the smallest sparkle to light a fire, something that he'll find easily around him. He's gotten so powerful in fact that he can animate individual flames to take shapes and act under his command. (Or he was so powerful *sob*)
Much better than the idea of Bobby reforming his shattered body using other people's pee.
Oi, that's really bad. LOL
I wonder how this second mutation will change him though. He seems pretty much indestructable, since water particles in the air seem enough to keep him alive even when liquified.
Lovely essay. I really like that you highlighted them as complimentary to each other. I thought your point about Bobby's relationship with Rogue was very interesting, something that I hadn't thought of. But I haven't read a bunch of B/J, yet. ;)
I kind of love you right now because you didn't go all ROGUE'S A BITCH WHO MUST BURN IN HELL!!!!!111!!!!!!!1 On a side note I like to think that Pyro and Iceman go on double dates with Rogue and Wolvie. *whistles innocently* Seriously though, well done and straight to the point, just how I love essays. :)

Again, good work.

As for Rogue, my love for the X Men was born from the comics and I've never liked her, so even sweet Marie couldn't change my mind.
