Alison did chuckle as Gwen compared Carol Danvers, nodding her head in agreement. "Yeah, I have to say she really is that powerful!" she stated, her mind flashing back to the Singularity event where the star child was gathering all her friends together and she'd gotten to meet Carol. When Gwen mentioned not having a Wilson Fisk but having several people like him, she shuddered a bit and said "I am so sorry! It seems like there's bad guys in every universe, which sucks!" She did end up laughing as Gwen said her favorite movie was the first Iron Man, even adding that the guy who played him looked so much like Iron Man!
They focused on pizza for a bit and then Alison asked if she could pay, which apparently was the wrong thing to say as Gwen got upset! Quickly reacting, she then slipped her arm around Gwen and said "Hey, it's okay! I didn't mean anything, I just wanted to do something nice! Why don't you pick out what you want then we can talk?" She then cursed herself out as she realized she sounded even more like a mom! "Ugh, sorry again! Of course I'm not your mom, though I might look like her!" she said, rubbing Gwen's back and wishing she knew what to say to make Gwen feel better.

So...yeah Dazzler was only making things worse. Gwen wasn't upset. She was internally freaking out, Dazzler didn't just look like Martha, the more her mind dwelled on it the more she could not unsee it or unhear it. She looked like her, she sounded like her. She had the same inflections the same mannerisms the same....everything. Dazzler was seeing it too right? She had to be! Gwen saw her wheels turning in Dazzlers head when Gwen first talked about her, and then the apologies she was making now...
*No!* Gwen thought to herself. *There's no way.* Her mom's name was Martha not Alison, and while she didn't know her mom's maiden name what were the odds that her maiden name was Blaire right...right?*
Then again what were the odds her grandfather's original name was Stacy and he changed it to Poole when moving from Liverpool...yet that was the case. Heck Gwen Poole herself was a variant of Gwen Stacy yet she had far less in common with her doppelganger compared to Dazzler and Martha. She took a deep breath there was one way to know for sure. she was terrified to ask but she needed to...she had to.
"May I hear you sing?, Please? I don't care what it is it can be some cheap nursery rhyme from the public domain I just need to hear SOMETHING...Please, I have to know for sure."

Alison was surprised at Gwen's request but would do almost anything to help, but they needed to get out of the way, so she asked the young man ringing her up for one slice of pepperoni and a Pepsi, hopefully Gwen would like it, before asking her security to help her carry the food and drinks to a somewhat secluded table. After they were settled, Alison took Gwen's hands and began to sing "Hush little baby", a song she remembered being sung to her so many years ago, and reminded her of her own mom.
As she sang, tears welled into her eyes and spilled out, but she simply kept hold of Gwen's hands, only saying after she was done "I don't know if your mom was a version of me, but I'm sure she loved you and would be so proud of you! I am proud of you, and while I'm not your mom, I would love to get to know you better." She then wiped her face before sighing and asking "Feel better?"

Gwen let out an audible gasp as Dazzler's voice reverberated inside of her head. hey eyes widened as tears began to form, she put her left hand over hand and mouth. If anyone was around they might have asked her if she was ok and that she looked like she saw a ghost, In truth, she felt like she WAS seeing a ghost and hearing it. Dazzler may not have known for sure if she was a version of Gwen's mom, but Gwen did...hearing her sing it, well for lack of a better term it opened up a connection. She knew that voice anywhere
At first, Gwen wanted to throw herself upon Dazzler, like a lost daughter would but she couldn't she was just frozen in shock. Her hand did not leave her mouth. Slowly she finally removed it. Dazzler asked if she felt better but she was still frozen. the wheels began to turn in her head. and she started to breath just a little heavily.
"T-There is a way to know for sure..." Gwen pulled out her portal gun. "I can use it to scan you and find my world's equivalent of you...if my world has one. You know what n-never mind this whole thing is silly." She bit her lip. She didn't know what to say. Heck she didn't even know how tp proccess everything that was going on. She ended up spouting the first thing that came to her head.
i-if you want I can show you my earth and all my mom and dad's stuff...I guess in a way that makes it your stuff."

Alison watched Gwen's reaction, guessing that her singing answered Gwen's question, but then her daughter from a different universe pulled out a gun of sorts and asked to scan her. "Ok, two things; first I wouldn't point that at me in public please. Second, let's eat first, I think we could both use food right now." She was worried about Gwen, according to everything she'd said, she was alone in a completely new universe with no one to help her and she was currently having trouble with the thought that she, Alison Blaire, was her mom.
As she began to eat, she cautiously brought up an idea to Gwen. "I am curious to see your world, but I just want to be sure I'd be safe going there, you know what they say about stepping on butterflies" she stated, looking at her security as they tried to bring up the danger. "I know, but if it would risk breaking our timeline I would rather be the only one who goes, unless..." she then looked back at Gwen. "Do you think it would be okay if these guys held onto your portal gun, just in case they need to come in?" she asked, wondering if that would work.

Gwen's eyes widened as she realized what she did and quickly put the gun away. Sure the thing looked like a Walmart price scanner than a traditional gun, this was the marvel universe after all. You could never be too sure. *idiot pulling a gun on a public figure in public. stupid, stupid stupid.*
She nodded when Dazzler mentioned food. Yeah, she could use some food right now. She got some pizza and began to start eating, silently at first. She was on the verge of straight-up BSODing. It was one thing to see someone who looks like your dead mom and then do a double take. In this case, however, Gwen was looking straight-up doppelganger. Immediately her mind went into "what if" that was involved. *What If Dazzler married George Stacy in a world without Marvels?* it would seem Odd given the fact that there was about a 30 year age difference between Earth 616's George Stacy and Alison Blaire, but at the same time there were universes where there was only about a 5 years age difference between Peter Parker and Tony Stark, and other universes where Tony Stark was quiet literally a father or uncle figure to a teenage Peter Parker just starting her career. The idea that Gwen's world was one where its Dazzler and George Stacy equivalents were the same age was not THAT far fetched.
Gwen looked up when Alison mentioned the butterfly effect. "Um, the thing is, this is universe hoping, not time travel. it should not matter what you do in my world it should not affect yours. As far as danger goes, there aren't any superhero-related things in my world. Magic is all slight of hand, We've never made contact with any advanced alien races. In my universe, you're insanely overpowered."
She thought about Dazzler's suggestion about giving her security her portal gun. " two problems with that. A. Time will not pass here while we are in my universe unless a third party from here goes through another portal. In other words, we'll be there and back in a B. It's also my only portal gun. If I give it to them and we go through the portal and it closes, then we'll be trapped unless I get a second gun...and given the fact that I found the one I have in a Literal cereal box, I don't know how to get another one. I'm sorry. I don't know if I'm making any sense. This is a lot to take in and my mind is kind of scrambled."
She took another bite of her pizza.

It was pretty quiet while they ate, which Alison honestly needed as she had a lot of information to process through, so she simply ate her pizza while she mulled over the stuff she'd learned from Gwen. It was honestly really amazing that out of all the fans she could've met, the one that crossed her path was, in a way, her daughter. It also overwhelmed her a bit, if she had to be honest, being as she had never had kids and although she might like to have kids in the future, she was focusing on her career.
She was relieved to hear Gwen say that visiting her home was more universe hopping than time travel, but listened as she explained why she needed to have the portal gun on her. She could tell that her security team got worried at the mention of a portal closing, but simply said "If you can say I'd be safe, then I see no reason why we can't make a quick trip there", giving a look at her team letting them know she'd be safe. "Finish eating and we'll find a space where we can be a bit more private, okay? I don't want to disappear in front of a bunch of people, don't want to cause a panic." she said, very curious about what her alternate universe self was like.

Gwen nodded and ate. her mind was still reeling, of all the people she could have ran into she ran into her mom, and not only that, but her mom as it turned out REALLY WAS Dazzler. she could not help but think about what her dad once said. "I stopped listening to the Dazzler Albums...cause I fell in love with the real thing." *Dad, if you only knew how right you were.*
She finished her food, and took a deep breath "Are you ready to go?" She took Dazzler by the hand to a private area and then activated her portal gun. She took another deep breath. "Take my hand. she held Dazzler's hand like a young toddler would hold her mothers and pulled the mutant singer through the portal. Said portal led directly to Gwen's room. Said room was filled with 80s memobialia...and especialy marvel stuff the song Emergency by Paramore was playing on a radio on a nightstand next to her bed.
next to the radio was a picture of her family, her mother Martha, (Dressed in one of her many Dazzler Cosplays), Ted, Ted Jr, and herself. Gwen looked at the portrait and then back at Dazzler, seeing them side by side the resemblance was beyond uncanny. "Look I...I need to go to the garage and look for something, but...feel free to make yourself at home."
If Dazzler looked around the rest of the house she'd see other pictures on the walls of it too.
