Jean Grey, 30 years old, dressed in a green blazer, an educator at Xavier Memorial, awkwardly stands outside where a food truck is parked.
Frost's Breakfast Burritos: The Best Breakfast Burritos in the entire multiverse.
"I can come every other Friday if that's okay?" A Mature Blonde of 50, feathered pixie cut a silver grey, brows pierced, arms tatted with blue roses, a relatively slender beauty with a rather noticeable muffin top offers to the Headmistress, Mystique.
"... It's a little strange." Mystique points out. "You travel the multiverse in a food truck?"
Emma shrugs her somewhat spongy shoulders, her eyes locked on Jean.
"It's easier that way." Emma explains. "Jean."
"... Emma." Jean says awkwardly.
Emma smirks.
"Let me guess..."
- "This world's Emma is a bitch and she stole your husband?" - "This world has an Ethan Frost instead of an Emma and he knocked you up?!" -Something else

"... Well you are a telepath." Jean huffs, embarrassed a gender swapped, middle aged version of her Ex knew that information off the bat.
Emma smirks, her blue eyes lively with passion and humor.
"Didn't need telepathy, hun. I've seen this song and dance plenty of times! You either hate me cause I stole your man or you hate me cause I was your man!"
"... I wouldn't say you... I mean... I wouldn't say Ethan was my man."Jean blushes a shade of red matching her locks. "We were just friends."
"Ooh." Emma chuckles. "Let me guess? Pothead, man-child, and... hmm... what is this timeline? A schism?"
"... Yes." Mystique raises a puzzled brow. "Is that common?"
Emma nods.
"It's basically the default!" Emma laughs. "Well, he's an idiot picking Scott or Logan or Bishop over you."
"... It's Storm." Jean sighs.
"... Okay, maybe he's not that dumb!" Emma giggles, annoying Jean and making Mystique very, very uncomfortable.
-Jean lashes out on Emma for being so insensitive!
-Out of the blue, Emma offers Jean a breakfast burrito on the house.
-Suggestion

"You've had a hard go at it...how about a breakfast burrito on the house?" Emma asked kindly. She grabbed a tin foil wrapped burrito from underneath a warming lamp and handed it to the redhead. Jean took the proffered gift and immediately unwrapped it.
"Oh wow..." Jean's green eyes lit up. "This is really good!"
"It's the chorizo!" Emma added with a laugh. "Spices up everyone's morning. That's why I'm a multiverse fan favorite." She eyed the redhead and smiled sadly. "So how old is the rugrat?"
Jean took another bite, avoiding eye contact. "She just turned five."
"Such a cute kid. I remember when my kids were that old. A pain in the butt but so damn cute!"
- Ethan heard about the food truck and comes out to investigate with some of the other staff - Emma tells Jean to keep her chin up. There's another version of her who's coming to this reality as a refugee - Something else

"So, what's this schism, about?" Emma inquires as she is watches Jean happily chew on her breakfast burrito.
"You could just use telepathy to figure that out." Jean points out.
Emma laughs.
"That's not my style." Emma shakes her head. "Besides, I've never like looking into Jean Grey's head. Talking is always better, in my opinion."
Jean sighs, explaining, as she eats her burrito, that the X-Men split after the destruction of Genosha four years prior.
"Rachel just turned one." Jean sighs. "Ethan had a choice, Mystique or Storm, Charles' way or Magneto's. And he picked Storm." Jean frowns. "The worst part, he comes back a few months ago, I was hoping he realized this stupid war with the Avengers was only going to get him killed..." Jean touches her plump belly. "And all I get is a little sister for Rachel!"
"It could be a boy."
Jean huffs.
"No, she's a girl and her name will be Natalie." Jean insists.
Emma once again laughs.
"Yeah, my Jean only wanted daughters too." Emma sighs. "But hey, at least your relationship with Ethan isn't completely dead. Right?"
Jean pouts. They had sex for the first time in 4 years. No, that's pretty dead to her!
