Maggie seems pretty dark and troubled, which just so happens to be the types Cable normally gravitates toward. And given her age I feel like he'd wanna take her under his wing and provide her some guidance, almost like a Hope stand in on the board. What do you think?

I like the sound of that. She's extremely reliant on her powers right now. While she can pretty much turn a tiger into a kitten with a word, when her powers fail she's pretty useless. Maybe Cable could give her some tips on being a badass without powers.
And she's fucked up on his level, so they ought to get along fine.
Might as well reveal the synopsis of some of the fuckedupedness. Her parents were never married, her mom and step dad were in human trafficking, and all that that implies. The burn scars on her arm are from her mom's cigarettes.
At eight her powers manifested and she made her mom put out a cigarette in her own eye and step in front of a truck.
Her biological father literally walked out in the middle of the night within weeks and left her sitting in an empty house. After a series of fosters couldn't handle her, including one that tried to kill her, and one that committed suicide, she ditched the system at twelve and started Pushing strangers to give her what she needed.
