I'm going to guess tentatively that no one who evacuated Krakoa has actually died, and that the cliffhanger’s resolution will be that Darwin and/or Warlock redirected the gates to a safe location. And that wherever everyone went, it's just too far out of Xavier's range for him to detect. I think that would be a good way to pay off Darwin becoming one with Cerebro--and promising Forge it would help everyone later on--and with Warlock surviving on inside of the machines to help his friends.

That Destiny thought it was the right call to accept exile and fight another day, and was so sure that Manifold had the ability to save everyone, tells me that they weren't all just marching to their deaths under Xavier's control. They’re somewhere in a real place, where Eden will still be able to discover them. I think also that all of the set-up we’ve had so far has been oriented around the idea that the mutants (and ordinary humans tbh) are in dire straits, but that they haven’t lost yet. We also already know that Magik, Mirage, and Mary made it out alive to star in their own book in Otherworld, though I guess it's not really clear if everyone else is with them or if the survivors have all been split up.

(It’s also possible that Stasis and Moira just actually kept their word and let everyone escape to somewhere the X-Men can’t reach, but I don’t think so since Duggan is the event’s lead writer and he’s leaned so hard into the idea that the mutants vs machines war only persists because Orchis are lying genocidal maniacs.)

How Many Drinks It Would Take Me to Hook Up with Classic Literature Writers

[missparker]

kacey musgraves said "i had to get away so i could grow" and taylor swift said "if you never bleed, you're never gonna grow" and dolly parton said "when a flower grows wild, it can always survive" and otis redding said "when every day it grows a little more" and ani difranco said "got a garden of songs where i grow all my thoughts" and mary oliver said "thus the world grows rich, grows wild, and you too, grow rich, grow sweetly wild" and alice walker said "no person is your friend who demands your silence or denies your right to grow" and maya angelou said "most people don't grow up, it's too damn difficult, what happens is most people get older" and lucille ball said "if you're too sure of yourself, you don't grow"

and i know that growth always looks different for everyone but i still think we gotta keep trying, even if it's hard. especially because it's hard.

hmm probably not. But I think he’d make great rupi kaur like poetry that’ll gain popularity due to many people relating to it but then find out Connor is a white cis man and he becomes enemy #1.

"Writing is different. Ordinary people don't understand. Other people get into occupations by accident or design; but writers are born. We have to write. I have to write. I could work at selling motels, or slopping hogs, for fifty years, but if someone asked my occupation, I'd say writer, even if I'd never sold a word. Writers write. Other people talk." - W.P. Kinsella - Shoeless Joe (book that inspired Field of Dreams)
