At the end of the first trade, which is around issue 100, Cable gets rid of the TO virus; after that, all the inner energy that he's had to direct toward keeping the virus in check has no place to go, and he's losing control of his power. Then he basically tries to kill himself because he realizes he's getting too dangerous and. . .

that's where the second trade ends. So I don't know what happens. Unfortunately, I don't think it's going to involve a long-distance and weirdly intimate psychic rapport with his stepmother. Though, if I ever write that fic, it well might.
