There's a reason, even at her most influential as Queen Bee, her colors and style were light and soft. Alison is not, at her core, a hardened bitch. She is fragile, yes, like a bomb, but really... her core is angel cake. We see that around the end of the 5th season, hell, we see that when she pulls the girls out of danger consistently. She's always been the type of person to save people, but her parents conditioned her to lie and manipulate to survive. She broke that conditioning. That's something so gratifying to see.

Now, of course, she still slips up and withholds information, has her bite in moments, and manipulates subtly later. But I think that's expected, and sometimes–even smart. She just traded being the leader of the pack to another cog... that often sits back and observes, then reacts if needed. Which, again, I think is oddly very smart of the writers. Then again, PLL's problem was never character development/fleshing out their "dolls" (so to speak). Just plotholes, lol.

People don't exist in a vacuum, and neither does Ali.
