#tbt: Fantastic Four vs. the X-Men #4 – Psylocke explains to Dr. Doom that her own powers are maintaining the coherence of Kitty’s consciousness as the lifecell does her being. Written by Chris Claremont and Art by Jon Bogdanove. Read full summary here.
“For so long, my life has been out of control. Chaos and serendipity, wrapped in insanity. I have suffered, I have lost. Not just my life, but my very soul, my self. But no more. Now I know who I am.” – Elizabeth ‘Betsy’ Braddock, daughter of Otherworld, mutant, telepath, telekinetic, defender of the realm and, above all, X-Man.

I really like Psylocke's participation in this miniseries. Even though she's not one of the main characters in it, she still manages to psychically knock Human Torch out, help She-Hulk to restrain Wolverine, let Kitty communicate with everyone else (which is especially sweet in these panels showing Kitty and Franklin) and keep Kitty's mind intact.
The weird thing is, after Reed Richards manages to save Kitty's life, Psylocke isn't shown anywhere, being neither in Doom's celebration party with everyone else, nor in the laboratory with Kitty and Franklin. I guess she was so exhausted after all the psychic effort that she went to bed early that night.
(by the way, what does "#tbt" mean?)
Thank you very much for the information, Leo!
Psylocke's butterfly earrings were on fleek.
I'd say she played a huge part in this series. Even though she wasn't shown on panel as much as the others, since her main goal was keeping Kitty alive. I think she was beyond exhausted after the main event. You could see it on her face. Her head must have hurt for days afterward.
I loved this comic and I miss this Elizabeth.
