Free Buffy plot bunny

[thebratqueen]

So I was thinking about "Normal Again" and a small idea occurred to me. In the "normal" universe Hank, Buffy's dad, was still alive, and her folks were still together. So what does it say about her "delusion" universe that he went from being a nice guy to a non-entity to a big ol' nasty jerk?

Gotta be a plot bunny in there somewhere. I bet you could tie it in to her nightmare from Season One about him suddenly going mean on her and blaming her for the divorce.

Just some random thoughts.
