AU where Butch stayed on his fathers farm and took over once he passed instead of running off with Darlene and becoming an outlaw. Been playing alot of Stardew Valley and Coral island and messing with possible AU's and honestly, I'm loving experimenting with potential differences in his personality in contrast to main verse Butch.
He would probably be a lot more abrasive in personality. While Butch can be rough around the edges normally, he's usually generally friendly but this version of him would more than likely be a bit more up front and rude and alot less playful about it. He still maintains his core personality of course, but being around his father for the majority of his life would absolutely impact him negatively considering how emotionally closed off and callous Ernest can be.
Also playing around with the idea of a modern farmer Butch with a similar back story to this, especially since he would have still been sheltered and out of the loop with most modern things being a farmer boy way out in the middle of nowhere. He wouldn't be completely oblivious but he would definitely seen most modern technology as 'fancy' or for rich folk haha.
