Title: Normality prologue

Author: Magrat

Spoilers: up to the end of season 7 and especially for season 6 Normal Again.

Ratings: PG: 13

Notes: I have started this but I will mostly be writing this after the current season because of the way I want it structured.

Big hugs to my beta Beth who has been working really hard on this with me.



Normality prologue



Joyce smiled at the customer who was taking forever to decide if he wanted to buy the granite sculpture that he had been looking at for the last hour. She strongly suspected he was prevaricating and couldn’t afford the hefty price tag. She smiled with relief when her assistant came and informed her there was a personal phone call for her. “Caroline can you take over for me. Excuse me Mr Richards but Caroline, can help you with anything you want.”



Joyce pulled up the phone. “Joyce Summers here, how can I help you?”



“Dr. Stevenson, nice to hear from you. Is Buffy okay? When?” Asked Joyce her voice quickened with excitement. “Last week? Why didn’t you contact us? I understand you didn’t want to get our hopes up again…when can we see her? Take her home, you are kidding? Of course, we want her home, more than anything. When? The day after tomorrow; oh thank you, thank you!” Joyce said a mixture of smiles and tears on her face.



**************************



Joyce looked around her kitchen, figuring the extra groceries she would have to buy. It would be so strange having a teenager in the house. Then the thought crossed her mind that Buffy wasn’t a teenager any more but a woman in her early twenties who had spent most of the last 7 years in a catatonic state. Suddenly it was starting to feel a bit much. She wished Hank were there but once again he was away on business, she wondered if the girls next door were in. She really enjoyed their company and maybe they could help with what to expect from a girl…no woman in her early twenties.



**********************



“Dawn, can you turn the music down, I can’t even hear myself think,” shouted Tara as she went to answer the door. Oh M-mrs. S-summers, I’m sorry about the noise. You know Dawn when she comes home from school.”



“Tara, how many times do I have I to tell you, please call me Joyce and I haven’t come to complain about the noise. In fact I wondered if you would both like to come for dinner? I know you’ve just come home from work and I sorta guessed that Dawn wouldn’t have thought about starting anything,” said Joyce smiling.



“If you don’t mind, uhm Joyce,” said Tara.



“Of course not and to be honest I could use the company and I have something exciting to tell you,” said Joyce. “I’ll tell you what, I’ll give you 15 minutes to get Dawn ready, will that be okay?”



“S-sure thank you,” said Tara as Joyce turned to leave.



“Dawn,” roared Tara. “Mrs Summers invited us over for dinner, so do you think you can get yourself down here?”



“Hey,” said Dawn from the top of the stairs. “That’s cool, she didn’t, you know complain about the noise? Did she?”



“No, you’re off the hook, this time,” said Tara smiling fondly at her little sister. “So do you think you can be ready in 15 minutes?”



“No problem Tara,” said Dawn giving her a big thumbs up.



********************



Willow sighed as Xander pulled up outside the school in his beat up old truck. “Xand, you’re late again, did the truck break down.”



“Don’t mock the Xander mobile, Will, at least it’ll get you home…”



“Eventually,” added Willow with a grin.



“Hey come on, this is the best an apprentice builder can do,” said Xander defensively as Willow climbed in. “And how was your day dear?”



“Don’t mock me, it was okay but I don’t think Penny will speak to me again after Saturday night,” said Willow.



“She lacks a sense of humor, you need a girlfriend with a sense of humor,” said Xander.



“I need a girlfriend, period, said Willow.



“You and me both,” said Xander with mock sympathy. “But I’ll tell you what how about we go home eat pizza and ice-cream and watch cable.”



“Done,” said Willow smiling.

Oooh, great start!!! :)

To me, "Normal again" is one of the best Btvs episodes, and I'm totally in the "Buffy is actually an autistic, schizophrenic girl who's locked up in a mental institution and everything we saw on the show was actually the product of her twisted imagination" camp (was that sentence correct?) :evil



So in the real world (:grin ), Dawn is Tara's sister (makes sense, they look so much alike), Joyce is still alive (yay!), Willow's gay (yay again!) and she's just been dumped by a certain Penny... Enter Tara!! :bounce



Okay, Dallas is on and I'm lost... Pam was already married before she met Bobby? :shock

Someone taking on the task of expanding on "Normal Again" - Kitten-style. This presents the central characters very well. It should be fun to see how well Buffy interacts with others, and how she reconciles the-here-and-now with the Hellmouth reality.



So Willow broke up with Penny because.. Well, everyone in life is allowed to make mistakes. It's brave of her to move on, and Xander supports her. As always.



Tara and Dawn Maclay. Hmmm. I wonder what their parents were like (are like?). Normal parents would mean a more confident and self-assured Tara. Meeting Willow should be fun! *Side note - I always wondered what would happen if Willow and Tara didn't like each other when they first met, and then got together. Worked for Shakespeare*.



So many possible directions. I hope this fic has a long and successful run.


More than any other time in history, mankind faces a crossroads. One path leads to despair and utter hopelessness. The other, to total extinction. Let us pray we have the wisdom to choose correctly. Woody Allen (1935 - )

This idea rocks:applause



I always thought it would be interesting if someone wrote a story with Buffy as a loony.

I'm actually kinda hopin' it happens on the real show since Normal Again ended all funny in the hospital. No demons just people *sigh* what a beautiful verse it would be.



I love Joyce and she's in this fic so I'm sure I'll love it when we get more. I say that as if I could not love any of your fic. Poor Willow doesn't have a girlfriend but she shouldn't worry I think her Tara is coming. Pun intended



Can't wait for more.

Wendy, you've taken on such an interesting take on things. The world of Normal Again. I think the most basic question would be how real is it , if you are treating it like a real world, if there will be any touching upon the other sunnydale, "the real" one, though at this point this one seems more real :) This is shaping up nicely, very well done.

Oh, I like this idea and it's a great start. I have wondered what life would have been like outside in that world of "Normal Again" I'm glad to see that you've taken on the challenge.



Looking forward to seeing where you take us.

As always, you start us out with so many questions! However, I know the answers will come with time.



Interesting that Tara and Dawn are siblings, and Joyce lives next door!

Cool start. Can't wait to see what happens when Buffy gets home and starts seeing all of these people from her "fantasy-land" and trying to make/understand/create connections.



Want to note that I really like the idea of Dawn being Tara's younger sister.... and Xander and Willow roommates, excellent. For a half-a-sec there you had me worried that they were together (GASP NOOOO! :wink ) But then the mention of the now-ex Penny... where did you get that name from, btw?



Looking forward to the next bit.



Thanks for starting yet another fascinating fic :)



Cheers

Lots of potential in here, the thing that I most noticed was Xander's line about his car: "Hey come on, this is the best an apprentice builder can do".. as I recall several discussions (other board) about s7-Xander's car, heh :D



Do Tara and Dawn life with their parents or did they move out to Sunnydale to study? I don't recall exactly but are Willow and Xander still Buffy's closest friends in her real life ?



I hope this Buffy does a better recovery then the one in the season-not-to-be-mentioned : -->>: . She has her mother and friends around this time, should help. No annoying sister should help greatly as well, heh :)



Buffy can always become a writer, she has a very creative mind which kept her busy for seven years...:)

Waw. Normal Again.

Tara the girl next door. Literally. *s*

And Dawn. Well, actually that's not all good news. Though being Tara's sister instead of Buffy's would do wonders, maybe even turn Dawn into a likeable teenager? *gasp*

What about Spike? Or is it William?

And Giles?

Oh, the possibilities! *s*

I'm just confused about something: how come they are all in the same city? Does Buffy know them from 'normal' world and put them in SunnyHell? Oh well, guess I'll learn patience and umm... wait and see.

Title: Normality this is still part of the prologue

Author: Magrat

Ratings: R for use of language.

Spoilers: All of season 7 but especially Normal Again and Family for this part.

Feedback: Yes please

Disclaimer: Not mine I would have treated them better.

Thank you to my beta Beth for putting up with my increasingly insane ideas and helping me to sort them out; what would I do without you?



Normality prologue b





Tara and Dawn walked back from Joyce’s house; they had never seen their neighbor so excited, even last year when Buffy seemed to be well, there had been no suggestion that she would be coming home. They were looking forward to finally meeting her.



They reached the front door of the house and Tara turned her key in the door, she cocked her head when the alarm didn’t go off. “Dawn, we set the alarm before we left, didn’t we?”



“Yeah,” said Dawn catching the anxiety in Tara’s voice.



Tara pulled the gun she always had on her. “Dawn, do you have your cell phone?”



“Uh-um, yeah” said Dawn still shocked to see the pistol in her sister’s hand; despite knowing she carried it.



“Good, go back to Joyce’s and call Jitty, tell her to get here as fast as she can, “ whispered Tara her voice low and urgent.



“Tara…”



“Dawn, go now, do as you’re told,” said Tara in a whispered hiss.



Dawn reluctantly ran from her sister, pulling her cell phone out and dialing the number she had been ordered to.



*************



Tara crept through her house, her heart pounding, the gun wavering in her hand. She heard a small noise from the kitchen and quietly headed towards it. She could feel the cold sweat pouring down her neck. She threw open the kitchen door and tried to put on some attitude. “P-put your h-hands where I can see them…Oh for god’s sake Will what are you doing in my fridge?”



“Is that how you greet all your friends? Jesus, Tara you almost gave me a heart attack,” said the young bleach-blonde English man, dressed all in black, his long leather coat reaching to the floor.



Tara’s knees sagged slightly with relief. “William, you freak, what are you doing in my house?”



“Eating apple pie,” said Will, pulling a plate from the fridge.



“But why are you here, doesn’t your uncle feed you and anyway I thought you had a date?” asked Tara



“I did, but, he stood me up for a night at the gym, shame he really had the tightest pair of buns…”



Tara raised her hands in mock surrender. “No more please,”



Will gave Tara a calculating look. “Why are you walking about with a gun in your hand and where’s Dawn?”



Tara looked panicked and pulled out her cell phone. “Dawn, hey, it’s okay, it was only Will, could you apologize to Joyce and come home? I’ll see you in few Sweetie.”



“You still haven’t answered my question, why the gun, what’s going on love?” Asked the young man.



“I d-don’t want…”



“Hey, I know it’s bad if you start to stutter, c’mon Tara tell me, I’m supposed to be your best friend,” said Will.



“Donnie sent some threatening letters…”



“I’ll kill the bastard,” said Will, his blue eyes hardening into cold sapphires. “Have you told Jitty?”



“I d-d-d I d-didn’t want to worry her…



“Isn’t it her job?” he objected and then stopped talking as he heard Dawn enter the house. “Hey, shortie.”



“Don’t call me that, I’m almost as tall as you, “ said Dawn but with a smile.



They all looked round as they heard the sound of brakes screeching outside. “Oh god, I forgot to call Jitty back,” said Tara and then looking at Will. “She is going to be so pissed with you.”



“What’s new?” muttered Will. “But Sweetie, I may have to drop you in it too.”



“You dare…”



He blew her a kiss as the doorbell rang.



Tara opened the door to a small Indian woman in her mid thirties, dressed in a cream linen trouser suit, with a crisp white silk shirt. Her shiny black hair was cut short, pixie style, into her face. “Okay so no one’s dead, what’s happened?”



“N-nothing…”



Jitty walked into the house. “Hey Dawnie, how’s my favorite chess partner, still leading with your knight?”



Dawn hugged the woman who she towered over for a couple of seconds.



“Dawn, I don’t mean to be rude, but I think I need to talk to your sister for a few moments.”



Dawn shrugged and made for the stairs. “Okay, I have some homework to do anyway. You’ll say goodbye before you leave, right?”



“Of course,” said Jitty and then waited until the teenager had gone before turning with a more serious face to Tara. “Spill, what the hell is going on, your sister phones me to say you have gone into the house with a gun in your hand. Do you know how dangerous that is? Why didn’t you phone the police? I was about to phone them myself, when Joyce reached me and said that apparently everything was okay. ”



“I…”



“She thought it was that bastard, brother of hers,” said Will walking in from the kitchen.



Jitty kept her eyes on Tara and snapped out at her. “And you thought this, why?”



“He’s b-been s-sending me letters again,” said Tara her chin down not meeting Jitty’s eyes.



“And you never mentioned it to me or brought the letters to me, why?” Asked the smaller woman bristling with barely concealed anger.



“I d-didn’t want to b-bother you,” said Tara.



Jitty put her hand on Tara’s arm and guided her through to the living room and sat her on the couch. Jitty sat on the edge of the chair opposite, holding onto to Tara’s hand. “You never bother me Tara, except when you keep things from me. You know what happened the last time he turned up and I don’t want to have Dawn and I visiting you in the hospital again.”



“I won’t let him lay a finger on me again or go near Dawn, I’d kill him first,” said Tara through gritted teeth.



“No,” said Jitty. “I gave you the gun to make sure you are protected, if you carry on with that attitude I’ll make sure your license is revoked, do you understand me? Think of Dawn, your Mom wanted you to look after her; it’s not worth throwing away everything you’ve achieved on that bastard. I’ll deal with him. It’s my job. Do you still have the letters?”



Tara nodded.



“Okay, can you find them for me and I’ll have a word with his and your Dad’s attorney, remind them about the restraining order we have on him. Tara when anything happens like this you must tell me. I know you are independent, but I’m not just your attorney, I’m your friend too.”



“I know, I’m sorry. I just…wanted to prove I could handle things,” said Tara.



“Oh Honey, handle things? All the things you’ve done since you were 18, look after your sister, get your degree, hold down a job and run a house. You’ve done amazing but remember you have people you can turn to, even him,” said Jitty motioning towards Will.



“Hey,” said the young Englishman. “And she told me before you.”



“Whatever, can you get those letters for me?” Asked Jitty.



“Sure there in my room,” said Tara. “I’ll go get them.”



Jitty waited until Tara had left. “Will, can you crash here, say for a few weeks, just tell Tara you’ve had a fight with your uncle or something. I don’t want her left on her own and you pass for a man, well…technically.”



“Hey, didn’t they teach you manners at law school,” said Will bristling slightly and then relenting. “Yeah, I’ll stay, the grubs better here anyway.”



Tara came in letters in hand. “I’m sorry, for making you come over.”



“Don’t worry kiddo,” said Jitty. “You saved me from listening to my Mom going on about my brother’s wedding all night. You and Dawn are still coming and saving me from a million relatives I don’t know?”



Tara smiled and nodded. “We wouldn’t miss it for the world.”



“Don’t I get an invite?” Asked Will pouting.



“No, but I don’t suppose that will stop you from turning up, just try not to seduce the best man,” said Jitty with just a hint of threat. I’m just going to go say goodbye to Dawn and then head home. Are we still on for Friday night?”



“Yeah,” said Tara. “I’ll get the pizzas.”



“And make sure you get some decent films this time,” said Will.



Jitty gave him a dirty look and then gave Tara hug. “I’ll see you Friday. I’ll phone you when I’ve spoken to their attorney.” She headed up the stairs to Dawn.



***********



Willow sat curled up on the sofa, ice cream in hand watching TV in a comfortable silence with Xander. They had been friends for so long that they could just sit and chill out.



They both jumped as the front door of their apartment was slammed shut and Fred stormed into the room flinging her books into the corner of the room.



Willow looked at Xander raising her eyebrows. “ So the tutoring sessions with the Dowling’s haven’t improved then.



“I quit,” said Fred dolefully. I told their Mom where she could stick her jobs before I murdered her brats.” She flopped down on the sofa by Willow and took the ice cream from her. “I’m gonna have to put my name back down with the University to get another tutoring job.”



“Take your time,” said Xander. “We can cover your share of the rent for a while, right Will?”



“No problem,” said Willow giving Fred a reassuring smile.



“You guys are so sweet,” said Fred smiling. “But I’ve saved some money up, so I’m good for now.”

Great start, I really don't like the idea of Tara with a gun, but it has an impact on us. She's really terrorized. Poor baby. I really hate Donnie. Magrat, I know u'll give him something good. :pray

Great part, I'm so waiting for more! :grin

PostPosted: Mon Apr 14, 2003 12:18 pm 
Yeah I thought it was Willow in Tara's kitchen at first too :-). Still confusing to read 'Will' as short for William. I do like his attitude of wanting to take care of Donnie, I don't want Tara having to do that herself.



I'm sure Jitty is full of good intentions giving Tara a gun but I doubt Tara would handle it well in a case like this. If you think someone is in the house, don't go in the house... duh. Really, what was the idea behind that ? Let's say it was Donnie, then what ? Don't carry a weapon you don't want to use, goes for all weapons. (and entering into dangerous situations on purpose while carrying a gun places the legal risk of using it on the person carrying it, AVOID danger when possible)



Aaaanyway, I say Jitty and William need to have a short and to the point "talk" *cough* with Donnie. Living in fear is not really living, just waiting for Donnie to violate his restraining order (which is just a paper) can't be fun.



Oh yes, need to slap William for just entering Tara's home like that. He should have known better. I liked Fred's reference to her student's names, heh... sounded awfully familiar :-)

If Willow and Tara knew eachother Willow wouldn't be dating another woman, would she? And one named Penny? *shudder* LOL.



And yay for the "talk" with Donnie. Any chance we'll see some good ol' Spike violence there? Oh well, just wishful thinking. :-)



Oh oh, nearly forgot! Are Willow and Tara witches in this reality? Please please... *goes off in the land of prayers*

Drumbly: Hey pleased you like the start I hope you keep reading



Beth: What can I say I couldn’t give you nightmares with the name:lol :p .:fallen



BFR from Paris: yep, correct sentence. And a great little recap of the storyline. Couldn’t have put it better myself:lol .



Justin: hope you like it. The gun just call it an act of protection but will it ever be used.



Snuggle 79: thank you



Tempered Cynic: Yes it is a big task that my beta and I have spent countless e:mails discussing and how Buffy interacts with everyone I hope you will find it interesting.



Willow and Penny not real thing ‘cause we know who that is:tara and Xander is playing the faithful friend which is what he is best at



Hopefully it will be a long run, I can’t see it being a short one, too many tales to tell.



Stroke of luck: Willow is gay and Xander is single but he is going to crush out on Buffy again. Tara knows she is gay but she has spent her time looking after her sister. Yes Stripe is Tara’s best friend and she needs him at times. I’ll try and be quick but hell that work thing keeps getting in the way:tear :devilish



Paigeosity: Yes I wanted to write them without the pressure of demons so they could have fun:lol . Joyce, you know I loved her and I have never had the chance to write so I hope its good.



Xita: It’s real, the “Buffyverse” is not and how we’ll explain or rather Buffy I hope you’ll like it. Yes William is Spike and yep gay. Sorry about the still related to Donny but things are close in away to how they were but not quite.



Tired soul- thank you and I hope you continue reading



Bluewitchwillow- thank you and I will get back to your mail, I’ve just been a little busy.



Barnabasvamp- hope you will wait and everything I hope will be answered



Grimaldi- thank you for all your support. Yes Donny is a total scumbag but he won’t be actually in this story.



DarkWiccan- oh god, the names shall we just say The Beatles:lol . Glad you like the relationships we have pulled together and Willow and Xander never ever:puke . Thank you



Grimmy- you know that always bugged me that Xander could so suddenly move up in life so quickly, it just doesn’t happen. Willow and Xander don’t know Buffy and on Tara and Dawn thing you are just gonna have to wait. Believe me William is as much like Spike in that he will enter the house whenever he wants. They are that close friends anyway.



Some dark thing- I hope that Dawn will be more likeable. Yes the next part sort of answered your Spike thing and as I said the double take was played for laughs:devilish . As for Giles he is gonna be there and eventually Anya so stick around. Yeah your right if Willow knows Tara then there would no way she would be with someone else. Spike violence well if Donnie ever turned up then he might just do it, he loves Tara and Dawn, in a friend way.



Ukxenafan- yes this is the Fred from Angel, Jitty is an original character and simply Tara’s lawyer and the closest thing she has to a big sister. Yeah we meant for everyone to do the big double take with the Will in the fridge; thought it would be fun:p :lol



Washi- You like gay Spike? I hope he will be a fun character, not really Spike but some of his qualities. Tara will get over Donny when a woman comes into her world and turns it upside down, I bet you can’t guess who.:p :whistle



Tibbs: as soon as possible I hope and I agree with you Normal Again was one of the good eps.



Thanks everyone for reading, always love the kittens:kitty

Wendy:



The Beatles? What does the name Penny have to do with the Fab Four? ... OH!! Duh... "Penny Lane", right? See? Being a Yank doesn't make me entirely dull to British pop culture. :wink



At least you didn't name her "Lucy Diamonds" or "Meter Maid" and I think that "Strawberry Fields" has too many meanings.



Hee :lol



Okay, well, looking forward to the next bit :grin



Cheers
