i feel like jean is probably a huge headache for an empath to be around... she is just constantly banging emotional pots and pans in her head even when she's trying to be like 🙂 outwardly
she tries to keep a lid on telling other people about the way things are in Other Universes when she can but i do think she's probably been like "i am so glad you are here with us" in an overly earnest way a few times that might ping to him given that he would know she can do this lol. she loves all the og team members and is very nosy about their personal business in compensation for not being able to read their minds
i definitely think being kidnapped to Genosha together can be a bonding thing for them... jean is just now coming around to like discussing her experiences about it with other people at all so she's gonna be a little ticked that he got himself mindwiped LMAO she needs someone to commiserate with! but she'll try anyway

Manny isn't unaccustomed to people feeling one way but projecting another and he won't typically call Jean out on it, but he definitely takes notice and they both know that he knows. For better or worse. Also please stop feeling so hard, you're killing him. :))) This impacted him more when they were younger and he wasn't as experienced, so he mostly just expects/accepts this for her now. But still! Jean, get it together...
That's sweet, though. :') And so so ominous from Manny's perspective despite knowing that it's coming from a good place.
SORRY, JEAN. Depending on whether or not he remembers sharing any part of the experience/the aftermath with her, this is probably the one part of letting Emma alter his memory that he feels somewhat conflicted about. He trusts himself enough to think he did what he needed to do, but that doesn't mean he likes that he's left Jean in a bit of a lurch. If he doesn't remember any of that at all, well... Jean, what's your deal rn?? Either way, a fun little mess to play with!
