"The dreams are a world where you may have made different choices, or had different choices made for you," Kitty pointed out. She picked up her beer and took a sip of it. "You don't look like a mass murderer, if you are in your dreams you don't have to let that control who you are here, or who you can become here."
She gave Gwen a rueful smile. "That's honestly advice I should listen to myself. The flip side is these dreams are so realistic and so pervasive that it becomes really hard to separate yourself. No one comes out of them the same person they were when they started dreaming. It's just easier for some people to reject them than others. If they even want to."
