I completely forgot to post this before, we were discussing the timeline in the Pandemic Discord not too long ago, and I organized it into this handy reference timeline that shows when each of the active canon stories takes place, just so it's a little easier to follow.

Stories are organized by start date, and color coded to each author.

[Higher res link in case the preview breaks for whatever reason: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/536161402503692288/665729592954454046/Pandemic_timeline_-_MEDIUM_RES.png ]
Next project is organizing a ton of lore and world building info into a larger timeline that focuses on individual/larger events.

A quick question but in the second to last date is that last name in reference to another story's MC’s last name or did you just randomly choose it?

7115746
Assumes human last name of her birth mother (Haley Martinez aka Rosetta Stone), distancing herself from association with her other mother.

She doesn't hate her mother, but hates the fact her mother is constantly brought up when anyone realizes who her mother is, and doesn't want to be defined by that relationship.

I'll take a look at that sometime, I'm not familiar with it but it seems interesting

Definitely going to look at both of these. Something I've been meaning to do is organize a lot of the reference info we've discussed in the discord into a more easily readable and accessible format. IE: Characters/descriptions, locations, Organizations and groups, etc. Really just everything that's been brought up across each of the stories, because there's quite a bit of crossover between some of the side stories, even if it's only small details that get dropped in from time to time

7116168
Both of then are made for that

Here's an updated version of the timeline, the only major changes are Dreamers/Dreamers being merged into one story and being pushed slightly forward, and Marshmallow Dreams being added. I'll probably work on modifying it a little to make it easier to read when I'm not as busy
