It's too early to tell, but perhaps she could end up laying the groundwork for the Brotherhood? Or at least go over to Erik's side if he decides to split from the X-men? I think it might be better in that regard for Erik to follow her rather than Charles. But that's just my two cents.Also, like Wolverine has been seeing parallels between him and Atticus, perhaps something about Estella could remind Erik of himself at a younger age. The more I think about it, the more parallels I find.

In her original framework, Estella represented a third option to Charles' and Erik's sides: a place where mutant and human could co-habitat (unlike Erik's vision), but where spilling the blood of a person (mutant or human) for any anti-mutant/anti-human agenda was answered swiftly with blood. (Unlike Charles' vision.) 

This is why, in this re-imagining of Estella, she lead a group of any society outcasts that wanted/needed help (mutant, Japanese American, or just a minority tired of the prejudice and violent oppression of Mickey Cohen's organized crime in Los Angeles.) As a nod to this, whoever does talk to her will find her reading about all this talk of a 'Eretz-Israel', and contemplating the concept applied to mutants. A mutant homeland, one where (like Eretz-Israel) would accept those not mutants (or Jewish, in Eretz-Israel's case), but would primarily be a refuge for mutants, or a refuge for Jews in Eretz-Israel's case.

She's an outcast outlaw, by her very nature. A nature she'd admit she never picked, never wanted. Just the one that God decided to inflict on her. But she's a protective, vengeful, outcast outlaw. Hence her violent reaction when she thought a mutant was in trouble. (Estella has no idea what a 'bamf' is, all she knew was someone looked in trouble.) Being true to her nature, she'd dream of a 'thug mansion' for mutants and humans just wanting to live free from persecution. ("This 'Genosha' looks a promising candidate land.")

I explain all of that to highlight the truth of this: it wouldn't matter who went to talk to Estella. At the end of the day, she's a mutant walking her own path, a path with bits of both Charles and Erik's visions but at the end of the day, one independent of either. This is why, along with her high self esteem personality trait, Estella didn't blink to walk out on that bar and never look back.

TL;DR, no kidding, I was just playing Estella true to her character when she walked out. Total IC/OOC separation. And yeah, I put scary amounts of thought into my characters. ^_^
