So it has been driving me insane seeing these snippets over the last year or so cause I am so far behind (like 2015 behind) on X-Men outside of my girl Ms. Kinney: are Kitty and Emma dating now??? Last I saw them the fact that Kitty wasn't trying to kill Emma was a bit of a massive step.
They’re not dating, no, but they’re basically at a point where it could happen. And now Kitty is confirmed-Bi, too (Emma was confirmed years ago but a lot of people forget that)
back in whedon’s astonishing run is where they first reached a kind of frienemies status with mutual respect, which occasionally got forgotten afterwards but was still very much present in the background of their interactions
then in the current run we see emma and kate putting a lot of trust in each other, quite literally flirting with each other, and then when kate went through one of those temporary death things the x-men so frequently do, we see emma actually devastated by it, like she gets alone and then collapses to her knees and wonders what she’s going to do without her
then after kate is resurrected they have a romantic horseback ride on the beach and I’m living (also jokes about the last thing kate remembers being kissing emma, emma practically clinging to her, etc)
emmakate was ALWAYS “that weird crackship” and yet here we are
