[Allison nods. It's what she'd been thinking herself. Of course, now with the way Lydia phrased it she wonders if that could've been something for her. She'd ended up here, through this Veil and she'd lost a lot already. Could she have just slipped through this world and not ever realized Lydia was here?
The thought gets pushed away easily. She has Lydia here, Stiles and Jackson too. Maybe it's for a reason.]
Would you do it? If you could? Just... start over as someone else?
[ Before she’d shown up here? Maybe. It would be nice to put the baggage of the past year behind her. To forget Jackson, to forget Peter. But she couldn’t ever forget Allison. She’d never truly forget her own life, not really. Doppelgängers must not be able to, either.
More to the point, she couldn’t forget what Stiles had told her: banshee. That’s the word for it. That’s why she’d come through to a pile of dead bodies. It feels like a heavy weight. If she were a doppelgänger, though, maybe she couldn’t be both. Maybe that wouldn’t follow her too, but knowing what she does … ]
No.
[ She seems to surprise herself with it, blinking as she looks up at Allison’s face. Deflecting quickly, her brow furrows with a casually questioning look. ]
But why would I want to? [ Like her life is so great. ]

I'm glad to hear that. [She's not sure she'd feel the same about this place if Lydia wasn't here too.]
Come on, we've got more catching up to do and movies to watch.
