-knitted him a cap and scarf (they live in New Orleans, not Chicago) -baked him a bunch of German desserts -sat outside the mayor's office all day to talk to her about "the mutants" -organized a "friendship day" festival in honor of the mutants for the entire freaking city -handed her toddler to Kurt when he came to visit her and she was on the phone (she has known him five seconds) -son named his hamster Nightcrawler (gee I wonder where he got that idea) -organized a birthday party (in the wrong month-you can't convince me otherwise so please don't try) for Kurt -spoke at a public forum about the mutants -begged him to "bamf" her (which isn't even the word he uses for teleporting, god, author, pick up a single comic will you? Teleport, 'port, jaunt. NOT BAMF. Bamf is the SOUND)

-ghosted Kurt after he saved her from Mutina

-showed up because she was "driving by" to give him the 'world's biggest apology' -claims she wasn't ignoring him for days because she was afraid for herself but because she was afraid for him (this doesn't even make any sense) then tells him she thinks he's a superhero and also Kurt and like, can he just be a man to anyone? Oooh, he's her hero, no, he's A hero and she assumes he will just always protect her all the time even if it means dying and she does not give a shit about that. She was not scared for herself, she says. Total bullshit. That woman has children and unless she hates them, she would be fucking terrified. If some psycho threatened me, and I was dumbfuck enough to tell them I have kids, and then that psycho escaped, you better fucking believe I'd be afraid--FOR MY CHILDREN. I wouldn't be avoiding the super-powered group of heroes, I would be BEGGING TO LIVE AT THEIR HOUSE AND BRING MY CHILDREN WITH ME. But I digress. -threw herself at him physically and literally This is not normal. This is creepy as hell. Okay, I get that at first she was super appreciative and grateful that he saved her daughter after she let her play in the street, but damn lady. It gets over the top creepy real quick (ironic that the author writes Kurt saying he doesn't want to appear stalkerish when he's trying to get in touch with her after the Mutina incident, but it's fine for MacKenzie to stalk the everliving hell out of Kurt) The whole situation with MacKenzie is obnoxious and annoying and stupid and it is not romantic. Romantic is him knowing someone, the readers knowing her, and then them falling in love. Not round forty-seven of "Woman throws self at Nightcrawler who is incapable of saying no."

I can't name one woman he's dated or slept with who didn't throw herself at him.

-Amanda (his foster sister who pretended to be someone else to hit on him and date him, then revealed herself later as his sister) -the princess from the original Nightcrawler solo (I don't know her name; when Kitty and Illyana accidentally teleported his uniform off, then back on, the princess asked him to do that again)(I'm not making that up, read the series) -Cerise (kissed him at that party and declared her undying love for him like a week later) -Rachel (kissed him) -Christine Palmer, night nurse (told him she was into him and didn't get why he wasn't into her but went along with it til she threw him a birthday party that Satan tried to crash) -evil sorceress Anjulie who assaulted him (you cannot change my mind) -Weaponless Zsen (told him within the first five minutes that they should fuck) -Silver Sable (fell onto him while chasing him to apprehend him and immediately tried to kiss him, then started meeting up with him in secret to have sex) -Mara Keller (owner of the Nightcrawler museum. Y'all, she runs the fucking Nightcrawler museum. Literally sniffed his teleport smell like it was an aphrodisiac. I'll actually give him partial credit on this one. He came back from a battle with a gunshot wound and told her he had a fire they needed to put out)

Issue 6, her first appearance.

Letting her kid play in the street.

Calls her "Lena"

Lena should be dead.

She learns his name and immediately calls him Kurt.

Issue 10

She calls him "Kurt" at the bottom of the first panel.

Issue 12, she shows up to the Mayor's office. Doesn't call him Kurt but she's been waiting all day, apparently.

Issue 16

Still calling him "Kurt," and now lying to people about what happened. No honey, you were letting your daughter play with a ball in the middle of what you just called "a busy downtown intersection."

Issue 18

Still calling him Kurt, several times over.

My bad, I thought she called her Linley but it was Lindy. Woman doesn't know her own kid's name and neither do I. But she sure as shit knows Kurt's name because she's been calling him Kurt since issue 6.

Issue 22

All of a sudden she starts calling him "Mr. Wagner???" She has been calling him Kurt from the very first time she met him! She's called him Kurt when he was still a stranger!! Gah, writing like this drives me fucking nuts!!

I also hate that they can't decide if she's 35, 12, or 18. Does she have a job? She's a single mom but she's got this beautiful house and apparently TONS of free time. What does she do for a living? Did she inherit money? Win a shit ton in her divorce? Cause the single moms I know, some of whom make a really good paycheck all things considered in this world, live in townhouses or apartments and count their pennies. They don't have endless free time to stand outside a mayor's office demanding they do something because a mutant saved their kid and now they're going on some kind of spree. Like, I get it, she's happy her kid got saved when she was being an idiot letting her play in the street. But come on! No one who is real has time like this unless they're rich!
