DivergenceDawn sometimes wondered what life would have been like if she'd had a normal childhood. Would she be off at college studying fashion or accounting? Would she have left school and gotten a job?

Well, technically she did end up doing the latter. But she couldn't have predicted that an affinity for languages, demon and human, or skills with edged weapons would see her living in London and running her own business.

"We out of Ginger Snaps?" Spike yelled from the kitchen.

"Ask the Retjulls." Dawn smiled as she heard a yelp. No, she wouldn't trade her life for anything.

It's tough to say what her life would have been like. She wouldn't have been the cheerleader, that was Buffy. She's smart enough, but maybe not the geek Willow was to have been excluded that way. I'd say she would have drifted through as an average student, running on a different track so she wouldn't follow in Buffy's shadow, but maybe excelled at a college level.

Her life seems far more interesting now than it could have been otherwise.

Thanks for the catch. Considering I was tooling about with that sentence for so long, it's surprising it makes sense at all.
