Been a while since I read the very first X-Factor comics, but my impression always was that he did somewhat regret leaving the X-Men, and that Jean's return was just the drop that made the barrel overflow and forced him to rethink his decisions. Sure, it was hardly fair on his wife, I don't see it as something spontaneous or a decision taken lightly. Yes, it's not something that makes Cyclops look very good, but it could also be an opportunity to play up an internal conflict between the man trying to live a normal life and the man who knows, deep down inside, that his destiny lies with the X-Men. And I think Cyclops can be excused for sensing something wrong in his relationship with Madelyn, given that the whole darn thing was engineered by Sinister. It just depends a bit on how you play him, I'd say. But that's just me. :-)<br/><br/>---------------------------------<br/><br/>Now, as for plotting ... Kitty and Rachel (plus Kurt and Captain Britain, depending on who actually enters play) will need a few posts to establish them traveling to the X Mansion. Aside from that I am pretty open for ideas for Rachel, but I must admit that I would like her to make a grand entrance. At this point no one outside Excalibur might know that Rachel has returned, so I am hoping for a giant flaming Phoenix on the horizon approaching the mansion and people going "oh my gosh!", very much like her return in Excalibur.
