It's a stretch, and you're admitting here it's a stretch.

Smitten, maybe, but "a love truly true"? And this is several years after the fact - Lockheed debuted in Uncanny #166, and this is somewhere around Uncanny #273. If it was just a crush, he'd have been over it by this point.

Probably but his original "crush" could of just matured into a good friendship with Kitty. Remember we haven't really "gotten in his head" since then. Most writers don't realize he's his own complex character and not just "Kitty's dragon". Not that I couldn't keep talking about Lockheed but we should probably go back on topic.
So do y'all think Chase should stay just driving "Frogger" or get a new gadget so he can go back to being "in the trenches" with the rest of the troop?

Aw, that whole Lockheed speaking in rhyme issue of EXCALIBUR has bothered me ever since it came out. What I always enjoyed about the lil' guy was knowing what he was thinking without needing to know exactly WHAT he was thinking. His mind was so alien that Professor X couldn't read it, so that one story always struck me as needlessly silly... like fitting dragonwings on a tomato, if you will...

It was, as a footnote informed you, "loosely translated from dragontongue". And, although Warren Bloody Ellis later (bleep)ed it up, it's actually established in that issue that they (LH included) can't speak or understand human-speech at all, it's all in the reading (Kinda like early Cass-Batgirl, before she got her mind rewired).

Except that I doubt you could reach Thanos or Kang using a regular telephone. Or Magneto, for that matter, since I hear "technology" doesn't work in Genosha. Whoever it is seems to be rich and powerful, so I'm thinking Kingpin (unless he's dead), Silvermane, or Doom.
