feast your eyes upon my latest project, motivated entirely by spite and caffeine

lassie presents:

THE COMPREHENSIVE SKULDUGGERY PLEASANT TIMELINE

e x c e p t i t m a k e s s e n s e

here is an 80+ page gdoc covering from the unnamed's birth to seasons of war. it doesn't have everything from phase two, because i refuse to put myself through reading the shite dirty laundry is churning out these days, but it does have all the major deaths/plot points. i'm still making some adjustments to the doc, but. it's useable and makes a lot more sense than the impossible nonsense dates laundry has been spewing on twitter.

I have Ko-Fi now, if you enjoy my content maybe consider buying me a coffee :)

I was looking through your sp timeline for a fic i'm working on and i can't get over the amount of work and detail you've put into it it's amazing. just wanted to say thanks for making it it's so impressive

So for Valkyrie to be 12 in book one, she has to be born in 1994 (not 1995, Derko). Her 18th birthday is in LSODM. But LSODM and TDOTL have to be in 2013 (not 2011, Dorkus) because they reference Frozen, which did not premiere until late 2013. Valkyrie, a 1994 baby, would've turned 18 in 2012. SO NEITHER THE CORRECT YEAR FOR LSODM NOR THE ONE DIRTY LAUNDRY SET THE BOOK IN ORIGINALLY WOULD CONTAIN VALS 18TH BIRTHDAY. EITHER SHE WOULDN'T BE 18 FOR ANOTHER YEAR, OR SHE'D BE 18 ALREADY

meanwhile, if you keep her as a 1995 baby, she's 11 in book one, not 12. And she'd still turn 18 in 2013, not 2011, so Dick fucked it either way. And that, my friends, is the Shit Author Paradox of the sp fandom

Literally the only way this can work is by moving book one to august 2007 (Dick's blog said June, but no date was mentioned in-book), so Val would have just turned 12 and could therefore turn 18 in LSODM good god this timeline is fucked beyond all belief
