The only reason I think it will happen is because of Lindsey. I cant really understand it but Lindsey has always said he would go back and has had several olive branches towards Mick. I do believe Stevie has guilt of her actions from 2018. I dont think she wants a Yoko Ono legacy with the band. She forgave Mick and came back to the Mac after their big fight in 1991. I think there will some sort of reunion that may not include John. It may not be a tour but I think Stevie and Lindsey will be on stage together again. Why? Because the history of this band tells me so.

I agree with much of this except one sentiment; Stevie unequivocally does not feel regret for firing Lindsey, that’s just not how a person who has Narcissistic Personality Disorder’s brain works. She felt threatened/wronged/unheard/whatever and simply lashed out in reciprocity, which is what narcissists do. She may however feel regret, which is quite different from guilt. She possibly regrets that she wasn’t totally able to spin the narrative of Lindsey’s firing to the press/fans; she possibly regrets that she couldn’t have worked the situation to further her advantage… but she ultimately doesn’t care about anyone except herself. It’s not that she’s cruel, it’s just not how the narcissistic brain is wired. They view the entire world as either for or against them, and annihilate anything that they view as even remotely altering their narrative, much less threatening it.

Now, would Stevie reconvene with Lindsey? If she were convinced that it would be beneficial to her interests and that she would have total control, it’s certainly possible. She’s not going to be the one to initiate it, though.
