Time would literally smash, like a window with a brick thrown through it. People and events would just move randonly from shard to shard for eternity, ***and between the past, present and future***. Chaos. Everyone would still be alive, but the universe would just be plunged into anarchy.

for anyone is writing a later ep, feel free to use this:

What if for an episode or part of an episode, time starts to go all wonkey like maybe one of the eps between 19 thru 22 to show that bad things are starting happen, things and people start to change because time is being screwed up,

Like all of a sudden Giles thinks he is ripper again, or Spike grows long blonde hair and talks with his old accent and doesnt realize he is a vampire, or Buffy forgets she is the slayer because she reverts back to a fourteen year old girl who doesnt remember dawn...

get the drift, just things start randomly changing in time and then changing back...hm....maybe something interesting with dawn...pre-human form...

Each Scoob was individually in their own "shard", as is everyone else in the world. So each Scoob would be travelling back and forth randomly through time alone, to different points in their lives and in alternate universes.

Of course, my way might be too complicated to make an episode of, but we could come up with clip montages of what they each see.

**OR**

Alternatively, we could sort of rip off an idea from ST:Voyager. In one episode different parts of the ship exist in different time frames and alternate universes. What if the same happened to Sunnydale? We could have the HS back in the days before Buffy got transferred there, so we see a young Xander and Willow. We could have Buffy's house where she's living as a total recluse, having been convinced by Giles to kill Dawn in "The Gift". The Bronze could be there, and in this reality Oz is a famous rock star who's come to do a gig in his hometown.

Just little things like that might be fun. ;-)

I think that's a cool idea. But if this happens and people move randomly through time I just think we need to make sure we don't fall in the trap of bringing back dead characters like Joyce or Jenny or whatever, and use "Time" as an excuse. It may be tempting but I thinkit would be stupid if we had all these characters meet because time is being manipulated. I'm not saying anyone has suggested it, I just think we need to be careful we don't take the easy route and do that.

maybe she cant bring people back from the dead, maybe Osiris has a personal hate towards Proserpexa and that could be another reason she cant control her own death...

Do you guys think Willow actually killed Osiris when she hit her with that magic blast in "Villains?" I never was clear on that because the way she screamed and disappeared it kind of seemed like she did but yet she's a god so you think it would take more than that. Anyway if she is alive we could maybe work her into it a tiny bit, even if it's just a mention or cameo.

But yeah, working that in could be a possibility. Although we don't want to overload the season with recurring baddies from past seasons. But a few mentions of Osiris might be good.

And in those 8 hours I presumably have to get some sleep. :-)

Night all. Keep brainstorming ideas, and we'll see what the general consensus is on Friday/Saturday.

*Kashy sleepily waves g'night*

..of Stargate SG-1. Osiris is a male Goa'uld on the show, and he had to take a female host because no one else was available. And it was remarked on that this was pretty odd. :-)

(And SG-1 tends to be *very* accurate with it's Egyptian mythology.)

Night.
