"Shiklah."
Given the timeframe, I think I'm safe in assuming Shiklah heard "That's what she said!" about four million times during her brief marriage to Deadpool. In the comics, Nightcrawler actually performed the ceremony; although around here I write Kurt as having moved past faith or religion: dude was dead and came back, he still knows there's an afterlife, but doesn't really get into it. Like maybe multiple faiths are right--or wrong--so he doesn't want to get bogged down in who should be doing what.
Anyway, back to Shiklah: her little feet in heels weren't especially stable, so I did not mind her sitting here. Her cape is light--she'd never stand in a million years if it had been plastic--and I'm pretty sure the upcoming first appearance Storm is going to have some of these pieces. Her skin color is probably accurate, but weird, a bit more pink than the usual. The purple parts of her outfit have a nice pattern that must have been applied by tampo, but just on the front side! The back would be covered by her cape, anyway.

Ha! Poor Wade. Now that scarred alt head with the painful smile on his face sitting on my shelf makes even more sense given this skit.
As far as Kurt goes, his stance on religion is really something Claremont could've explored in that Kurt solo book he had some years back.
.For me it could go either one of two ways; His coming back from the dead re-affirms his faith because it must've been God's will that he came back...
Or
Like that REM song, he loses his religion, feeling due to his unique experience with death and his version of the afterlife, it didn't match up with his faith's teachings.
Only a really good writer should be trusted to handle such a topic like this.
The way I've tried to play it here: everything Kurt saw in his afterlife was so far beyond anything we can put words to, that religion now looks like argumentative children drawing with their own feces and calling it 'God.' He's still good and encourages faith, but what comes after death, well, you kinda have to see it for yourself.
Hmm, I always figured Wade for a cuddler. Maybe he puts too much energy into the one-liners to give it back in the bedroom. They could just be playing though- I get the feeling Shiklah's already a bit buzzed.
