A Complete and (Hopefully) Accurate Timeline of Carmen Sandiego
During my second rewatch of this show (I only found it in December okay) I suddenly found myself with a burning question, when the hell is all of this going on?
I quickly realized I could go and find out
So I began my 3rd rewatch, and a month later here we are
Each date is bolded with a brief description of the event and the episode in which you can find the information. Any quotes are taken from what is said within the show and only altered in order to flow with my sentence structure
As a disclaimer this is my first pass at the timeline and what I've immediately noticed while rewatching the show, please tell me if I've missed anything 🙏
March 01, 1999 - Carmen Sandiego is born (Season 2 Episode 10)
Carmen's birthday in previous media has been declared as March 1st, so I'm keeping that for simplicities sake. The year 1999 comes from Vera Cruz's tombstone; Vera Cruz "died" two weeks before her estate burned down, and as Carmen was beginning to walk at this time it places her at anywhere between 9-18 months of age.
This does give leeway for her to be born in 1998 (born in March 1998, house burns in Jan-Sep 1999) or 1999 (born in March 1999, house burns around December 1999) I chose 1999 because it would mean Carmen would be 20 (what Duane has declared Carmen's age during the events of the show) in 2019 (when the show aired) which I found fitting.
December 1999 - Vera Cruz's estate in burns down, Dexter Wolfe is killed. (Season 2 Episode 10)
June 2000 - Carlotta Valdez opens an orphanage (Season 4 Episode 8)
Chief relays while going over Dexter Wolfe and Carlotta Valdez's files that Valdez founded an orphanage 6 months after Wolfe's death.
March 01, 2015 - Carmen turns 16 (Season 1 Episode 1)
September 2015-February 2016 - Carmen receives her first call from Player (Season 1 Episode 1)
Duane has stated that Carmen was 16 when Player first called. Under the assumption that VILE follows a standard school year for the area (September-June), Carmen has to get this call after September so she enrolls in the following year, when she's instead 17. If she starts her first year at 17 as opposed to 16 it gets her closer to 20 when the show starts.
tl;dr: Player calls Carmen after the school year begins in September but before she turns 17 in March so it's as close to accurate to Duane's estimation of age later in the timeline.
March 01, 2016 - Carmen turns 17 (Season 1 Episode 1)
September 2016 - Carmen's first year at VILE Academy begins (Season 1 Episode 1)
December 01, 2016 - Cookie Booker arrives at VILE Island, Carmen and her classmates pull prank and get detention. (Season 1 Episode 1)
March 01, 2017 - Carmen turns 18 (Season 1 Episode 1)
June 2017 - VILE final exams, graduation, and Casablanca Caper (Season 1 Episodes 1-2)
July 2017-August 2017 - Carmen spends her summer under close scrutiny by the Faculty for her actions in Casablanca (Season 1 Episode 2)
Player, once Carmen retrieves her phone as she's attempting to escape the island, claims that Carmen hadn't "called [him] all summer long". Player is Canadian, their school years typically follow the September-June schedule, further implying that this same schedule is implemented at VILE Academy.
September 2017 - Carmen's holdover year begins (Season 1 Episode 2)
December 01, 2017 - Cookie Booker arrives with VILE hard drive, Carmen escapes the island (Season 1 Episode 2)
March 01, 2018 - Carmen turns 19
March 2018-May 2018 - Events of the Boston Tea Party Caper (Season 2 Episode 5)
Carmen recalls that the Boston Tea Party Caper had "been a few months since [she] escaped from VILE Island" and that "months of preparation were about to be put to the test" "A few months" is pretty vague, I'd say it's more than 2 months but less than 6. With graduation presumably happening in June, and El Topo being confused in his confrontation with Carmen because she "did not graduate", we can assume the new year had not yet concluded. This makes the cutoff for the Caper's events May.
May-June 2018 - Switzerland, Cairo, and Shanghai Capers (Season 1 Episode 1)
Carmen engaged in at least 3 additional Capers following the Boston Tea Party Caper (Season 2 Episode 5) but prior to the events of the first episode, information given to us courtesy of Devineaux and Julia's conversation at the beginning of the first episode.
Devineaux claims that "in just the last few weeks, this Carmen Sandiego has managed to rob millions of euros combined". A few weeks is a broad range of time, but likely not more than a month or so, which is why I've placed these three capers only slightly before the Poitiers robbery.
June 2018 - Carmen robs Cleo's vault in Poitier, runs into Crackle on train to Paris (Season 1 Episodes 1-2)
This event is 18 months prior to ACME taking Graham into custody and restoring his memories. As Devineaux is questioning him in the Big Bad Ivy Caper (Season 4 Episode 2), he asks if Graham would "care to tell [him] what [he was] doing on the train from Poitiers to Paris 18 months ago".
The events of the Big Bad Ivy Caper happen in December 2019, which if we track to 18 months prior, would be June. December 2019 is explained later in the timeline.
June-August 2018 - Events of the Sticky Rice Caper (Season 1 Episode 3)
August 2018 - Julia Argent and Chase Devineaux transfer employment from Interpol to ACME (Season 1 Episode 4)
In the French Connection Caper (Season 1 Episode 9), Devineaux's transfer from Interpol is stated to be "nearly 6 months ago" by Bellum as the Faculty observes the data they had managed to collect on him. With the French Connection Caper taking place in February 2019 (right before Hot Rocks of Rio Caper (Season 2 Episodes 1-2), which is Carnival, which is celebrated in February), August is "nearly 6 months" prior to that.
August 2018-February 2019 - Events of Season 1 Episodes 5-8
February 2019 - Events of the French Connection Caper (Season 1 Episode 9)
Early-Mid February 2019 - Events of The Hot Rocks of Rio Caper (Season 2 Episodes 1-2)
Mid February 2019 - Events of The Daisho Caper (Season 2 Episode 3)
February 19, 2019-February 25, 2019 - Events of The Fashionista Caper (Season 2 Episode 4)
To explain the previous five dates, the Hot Rocks of Rio (Season 2 Episodes 1-2) and Fashionista Capers both have events that only happen at a specific time of year, that being Carnival and Milan's Fashion Week respectively. They happen in late February to early March depending on the year. As Season 2 is set in 2019, this happens to be a bit inconvenient. Carnival actually happens in March while the fashion show occurs in February during 2019.
Since these dates conflict with the linearity of the show I've decided to push back Carnival to be sometime earlier in February as it has been in past years to fit with the show's continuity. I kept Milan's Fashion Week as it was in the real world because it's easiest that way.
It's entirely unsurprising to me that this kind of conflict has occurred as Season 2 was released in 2019 itself, meaning it was most definitely developed prior with general estimates of dates in mind.
With these capers directly following the French Connection Caper (as Devineaux is still in the hospital when Carmen is in Rio) that places The French Connection Caper in February as well.
March 01, 2019 - Carmen turns 20
March 2019-April 2019 - Events of Season 2 Episodes 6-7
April 2019 - Events of The Stockholm Syndrome Caper (Season 2 Episode 8)
The Need for Speed (Season 2 Episode 6) and Crackle Goes Kiwi (Season 2 Episode 7) Capers don't really have any indicators of when they occur, but The Stockholm Syndrome Caper happens while snow is still falling in Stockholm, Sweden. This places it in April at the latest, which is likely actually the month it takes place because at the end of the episode when Maelstrom and the rest of the faculty are addressing VILE's final graduating class Maelstrom mentions Valborg, a Swedish holiday that is celebrated at the end of April to announce the end of winter and coming of spring.
May 2019 - Shadowsan's goes on Capers during Carmen's recovery (Season 2 Episode 9)
As Valborg happens at the end of April, and so too does presumably the Stockholm Syndrome Caper (Season 2 Episode 8) as well, this means that Shadowsan's capers occur throughout the duration of May. He goes on at least four capers during Carmen's recovery period, which we can discern through what is briefly relayed by Player. These Capers take place in Belgium, Poland, Taiwan, and an area in the Austrian Alps; their cities being Antwerp, Krakow, and Taipei respectively. Her absence likely spans the majority of this month between the amount of rest she needed and the time it took to train so that she would be in the best condition to return to capers.
June 2019 - VILE Headquarters is blown up (Season 2 Episode 10)
June 2019 (1 week after explosion) - Devineaux arrives at VILE Island (Season 2 Episode 10)
June 2019 - Events of The African Ice Caper (Season 2 Episode 9)
June-July 2019 (1 week after Devineaux's arrival) - Carmen arrives at VILE Island (Season 2 Episode 10)
VILE Headquarters is blown up following the graduation of VILE Academy's final class. Back at the end of the Stockholm Syndrome Caper (Season 2 Episode 8), Coach Brunt tells the students that "upon graduating, it will be [their] prime directive to take [Carmen] down". This implies that at the time of the faculty's speech, those students were not yet graduating, so VILE would have to wait until after the school year had closed to wipe the island.
Since this school year likely ends in June, as previously gone over in this timeline, that means that the events occurring in the African Ice (Season 2 Episode 9) and Deep Dive (Season 2 Episode 10) Capers were sometime in June as well. This is further supported by the fact that in the Luchadora Tango Caper (Season 3 Episode 1), VILE had seen "no sign of [Carmen] all summer long" and ACME had not "heard nor seen any sign of her for weeks". Her last appearance until the Luchadora Tango Caper was when she stole information from ACME directly after the African Ice Caper, right at the edge of summer.
October 30, 2019 - Events of The Luchadora Tango Caper (Season 3 Episode 1)
We know this caper has to take place sometime in the fall, as per the summer statements made by VILE and ACME. It's clarified that this is specifically October because at the end of the episode Maelstom mentions that "Halloween is nearly upon [them]". As Halloween is at the end of October, you can put two and two together. 30th is further defined in the Day of the Dead Caper (Season 3 Episode 2), which takes place on the 31st (VILE is dressed up for Halloween), when you see Julia and Chase talking to Chief directly after the events of the Luchadora Tango Caper.
October 31, 2019 - Events of The Day of the Dead Caper (Season 3 Episode 2)
The Day of the Dead is traditionally celebrated November 1st and 2nd, though dates prior and post can also be included depending on the location. In this case, the episode showcases the celebrations on October 31st, aka Halloween.
Vlad and Boris are seen "trick or treating" and VILE is dressed up for the occasion, with it decidedly being Cleo's "worst Halloween ever" after Spinkick and Flytrap's failure at the end of the Caper.
Player also directly addresses the fact that "festivities typically begin the night before, on All Hallows' Eve", with All Hallows' Eve being an alternative name for Halloween.
On a slightly different note, the episode also addresses part of VILE's school year, as there were "delays caused by the move", they were forced to begin classes in "the winter quarter [that] year". This further proves their September-June schedule as it implies that the school year typically begins in the fall.
November 02, 2019 - Events of The Haunted Bayou Caper (Season 3 Episode 3)
The "Crawfish King", local celebrity chef in New Orleans, hosts a costume gala at his historic mansion "the first Saturday after Halloween" every year, stated in the episode by CK himself. With Season 3 presumably occurring in 2019, this makes Halloween a Thursday and the first Saturday thereafter November 2nd.
November 04, 2019 - Events of the Masks of Venice Caper (Season 3 Episode 4)
At the beginning of the episode, the VILE Faculty are seen eating excess Halloween candy; while Cleo complains about their indulgence, Maelstrom addresses "last night's bayou fiasco", and that they're looking forward to Cleo's "mask-themed scheme".
Since the operatives were "preparing to rendezvous as [they spoke]", this means the caper happens directly after they address it in conversation. This also means both Devineaux and Carmen are flying to Italy the morning of November 3rd, after the Bayou Caper. As this flight is about 12 hours, they would have landed in the evening/very early morning in Italy, meaning that their exploration around the city and actual Caper would have had to have happened the next day, November 4th.
November 05, 2019 - Events of The Jolly Good Show Caper (Season 3 Episode 5)
Player clearly says in the episode that "it's the 5th of November, a British holiday" when Carmen asks why VILE would want to steal the British crown jewels on that specific day.
You can also deduce that it's the 5th because a the end of the Masks of Venice Caper as Mimebomb is reporting the night's events, Roundabout reassures the faculty that "before the day [was] over, [they would] have Neal the Eel slithering free, and Carmen Sandiego in [their] clutches". As this report is happening the morning after the failed caper, this would place the Jolly Good Show Caper the ensuing night of November 5th as well.
November 2019 - Events of the Beijin Bullion Caper (Season 4 Episode 1)
The fourth season begins with Roundabout and Neal's mind wipe, though it goes awry. As it's presumably the morning after the Crown Jewels disaster, very little time passes between the Jolly Good Show and Beijing Bullion Caper.
Early December 2019 - Events of The Big Bad Ivy Caper (Season 4 Episode 2)
Player begins attending school this episode in December (with the Big Bad Ivy Caper happening on his first day of school).
We can deduce this month based on the calendar in Julia's office, observable in the V.I.L.E. History (Season 4 Episode 5) and Egyptian Decryption (Season 4 Episode 6) Capers. The month they are in during this time is composed of 5 weeks, with the last four days grayed-out, presumably cutting into the next month. This makes the month 31 days, lining up well with December.
Originally I had believed that this calendar had perfectly lined up with that of December 2019 (with the 1st of the month being a Sunday and the 31st a Tuesday), but then I realized the calendar Julia has is likely one that follows the month by Monday-Sunday rather than Sunday-Saturday.
This does mean that is is slightly off from what I thought previously, but still rather fitting nonetheless. Friday the 26th, as Julia had marked for her and Devineax's meeting, would instead be Friday the 27th on the 2019 calendar, so everything still more or less works out.
Now, to explain how this all relates to Player in school and the Big Bad Ivy Caper, we need to actually look forward into the Himalayan Rescue Caper (Season 4 Episode 4) as well. During the Himalayan Rescue Caper, Devineaux attempts to talk to Julia about Carmen and she postpones their conversation until "next Friday, at noon". This places the Himalayan Rescue Caper a week prior to the Egyptian Decryption Caper (when Devineaux arrives for lunch and finds Julia missing).
It is also addressed in the Himalayan Rescue Caper that Carmen didn't want to involve Player on the mission because he had "already been sent to detention on [her] account, and [it was] only his first week in school". THIS means that the Big Bad Ivy Caper (Player's first day of school) was about a week prior to the Himalayan Rescue Caper which is a week prior to the Egyptian Decryption Caper
tl;dr 2nd Week of December: Player starts school, Big Bad Ivy Caper
3rd Week of December: Robo + Himalayan Rescue Caper ("it's only his first week in school")
4th Week of December: V.I.L.E. History and Egyptian Decryption Capers (calendar lines up with Dec 2019, Devineaux lunch meeting marked for 26th)
Mid December 2019 - Events of The Robo Caper and The Himalayan Rescue Caper (Season 4 Episodes 3-4)
These events are back to back, with Graham's kidnapping and then ensuing rescue being a time-sensitive issue. Reason for December already explained.
Mid-Late December 2019 - Carmen acquires the ancient VILE relics (Season 4 Episodes 5-6)
Carmen hunts the VILE relics in two episodes, likely only a few days prior to her escapade in Egypt as she's actively racing VILE from location to location.
December 27, 2019 (~1 week post Himalayan Rescue Caper) - Devineaux goes to Julia's office for lunch, Carmen and Devineaux save Julia in Egypt (Season 4 Episode 6)
The calendar on Julia's desk is marked for the 26th, with it likely following the month from Mon-Sun as opposed to Sun-Sat (previously gone over in the Big Bad Ivy Caper). This would in fact make the 26th a Friday, though in 2019 this was not actually the case. The 26th was a Thursday and 27th a Friday, so I've pushed the date a day forward to match.
I doubt the creators were observing a 2019 calendar in order to precisely select a date for this event so I'm just rolling with what I've got.
Devineaux leaves Oxford for Egypt sometime after noon (when he was meant to meet Julia), and he and Carmen rendezvous at the pyramids to save Julia later in the day as the sun is setting, not quite cutting into the 28th.
December 28, 2019 - Julia and Devineaux give statements to the reporters for their historic find in the pyramids, Julia meets with Chief (Season 4 Episode 6)
It is the following morning when Julia and Devineaux talk to the press, as it's now light out.
Julia is seen in her office later in the day (back in Oxford), observing the footage when Chief appears to speak to her and schedule a meeting with Carmen.
December 29, 2019 - Carmen and Chief meet, Carmen is kidnapped (Season 4 Episode 6)
When Player analyzes Julia's most recent blog post, he tells Carmen that "if you line it up like a date and time, it's tomorrow, at 8 AM", in reference to the coded numbers at the end of each paragraph.
After Carmen and Chief's brief conversation on the 29th Carmen sits on a bench sometime later observing the city, and is subsequently kidnapped by VILE.
December 30, 2019 - Team Red hunts for clues about Carmen's location, Julia rejoins ACME, Carmen is brainwashed (Season 4 Episode 7)
It is late when we see Shadowsan at the grounds in which Carmen was captured in Seattle. Player claims to have "spent the last 24 hours hacking into every surveillance feed in Seattle [he] could find", meaning Carmen had been missing for an entire day.
In that same time frame across the city, Julia reunites with Devineaux as an ACME agent once again
We proceed to jump to Carmen whose memories are forcibly wiped in order to turn her into a VILE operative, all within the same evening.
January 20-January 26, 2020 - Shadowsan returns to the ruins of VILE Island (Season 4 Episode 7)
The show says that Shadowsan's return is three weeks after Carmen's kidnapping, but it's unclear how long "three weeks" refers to, as it could be exactly 21 days or bordering on four weeks with up to 26.
January 21-January 27 - Carmen goes on her first caper as a VILE Operative (Season 4 Episode 7)
The Caper is held the day after Shadowsan acquires information about the plan while on the island, so depending on when the three week jump is, this is the day after.
March 01, 2020 - Carmen turns 21 July 2020 - Carmen joins VILE faculty (Season 4 Episode 7)
Six months time jump, ACME has been assessing Carmen's crimes and is back to putting all their assets into taking her down.
VILE recognizes Carmen as their finest operative, and votes to have her join the Faculty.
??? 2020 - Carmen attempts to steal the Eye of Vishnu, memories restored (Season 4 Episode 8)
We don't know exactly when this caper happens. There's enough time for rumors about Carmen's plans to circulate, Gray to contact Chief, and Chief to pull strings to get the Eye of Vishnu back on display.
I would give this a few months preparation wise, but not an exponential amount of time.
2022 - Uptick in criminal activity due to prison breaks, Carmen's (presumably first) sighting (Season 4 Episode 8)
2 years after VILE began to crumble, they begin to show signs of activity once again following some prison breakouts. Julia, Devineaux, Zack, and Ivy (now apart of ACME) arrive at the scene of a supposed heist, only to find the culprit (Paperstar) already tied up with Carmen's silhouette on the rooftop.
Ending Ages for Characters with Confirmed Ages During the Show:
Carmen: 23 (20 during most of show)
Ivy: 22 (19 during most of show)
Zack: 21 (18 during most of show)
Player: 19 (16 during most of show)
Anyways that's it guys thank you for reading all my nonsense please again tell me if I missed anything 👍

Fake relationships
This trope should be renamed as pre-real relationships. I'm sure I read more than the ones currently in this list, but I can't find them at the moment. Please do check other people's reblogs, plenty more recs there!
Of Size And Other Matters, by LCwrites. Rated E, 28 k. P. Jul 22.  
Lovely from strangers to lovers, fake relationship human AU. Aziraphale needs a date to accompany him to an event hosted by his brother, Gabriel. Crowley receives a text from a stranger, clearly by mistake, but why not having some fun? I really like the dynamics between them, the ease and the trust. A tiny bit of angsty pining but quickly and happily resolved. 
The Small Ad, by ladydragona and SylWritesStuff, rated E, 32k. P. Jan 24.
To overcome boredom, Crowley offers his services as a hired partner. Aziraphale is in need of someone to pretend to be his partner. The rest is history. This is a lovely, hot, and sweet fake relationship fiction. Very interestingly, the POV changes at every paragraph, and because the story has two authors it left me wondering whether one wrote Crowley and one wrote Aziraphale, but kind of in real time.
Plus One, by Caedmon. Rated E, 100k. P. Mar 24.
 Human AU where Aziraphale comes from a very wealthy, traditional, old fashioned family and needs a date to take to his brother's (Gabriel) wedding. Guess who volunteers?
And Now All Of My Garden Is Grown In Lavender, by ilikeblue. Rated E, 72k. P. Apr 24.
Aziraphale is a successful queer romance author whose books are being adapted for TV. At the start of his career, his agent, Gabriel, insisted he claims to be married in order to gain more readers. Now that the spotlight is on him, Aziraphale needs someone to play the part of his husband. Did I mention that Crowley is Aziraphale's gardener and friend? I'm sure you know where this is going. This story has a little angst and lots of good vibes of trust, friendship, love and loyalty. And a happy ending! 
On The Same Page, by Chekhov. Rated E, 117k. P. Sep 20.
Human AU where Aziraphale and Crowley are both writers. Aziraphale writes Christian books, Crowley writes adult books and they help each other out with their writing. Until they have to pretend to be married. This was such a good read, I really couldn't put it down. It's almost exclusively narrated in Aziraphale's POV but the mutual pining is evident and the build up to them resolving their issues is so bittersweet and deep and just lovely. There is a happy ending, don't worry. And the side story will really... aargghh, I won't spoil it for you, just read it. 
Married At First Sight, by Aracloptia. Rated T, 146k. P. Dec 23.
A new classic! I doubt anyone reading these lists might have missed this fic, but let me tell you how much I loved it anyway! As the title suggests, Aziraphale and Crowley take part in the reality Married At First Sight. It's hate at first sight for our two heroes, unfortunately, but the slow burn that follows must be one of the sweetest things I've read in fiction. Crowley and Aziraphale both come a long way to understand each other and let their guard down, and the whole process is just marvelous to witness. And, no, I've never watched a single episode of the show Married At First Sight either, you really don't need to on order to enjoy this fabulous fiction. Lovely array of side characters to top it all!

I am trying to fit this time line of self destruction on Dick's part together and seriously events seem to go like this:-
Nightwing #80-82 (June-Aug 2003): Slade turns up to harass Dick in Bludhaven, Dick is fired from the BPD.
Outsiders #1 (Aug 2003): Roy asks Dick to join Outsiders and promises that he doesn't need to be friends/family with the team. (Roy is unknowingly being fed targets by Slade)
Outsiders #5 (Dec 2003): Roy gets shot 5 times in the chest, Dick feels guilt over it and has to take full charge of the team.
Outsiders #6 (Jan 2004): The Outsiders have to allow the entire inhabitants of the Slab to break out and escape as the Slab is destroyed. The team are blamed in the media for this.
Nightwing #87 (Jan 2004): Babs tells Dick they need to take a break.
Nightwing #88 (Feb 2004): Haly's Circus burns down.
Nightwing #89 (March 2004): Dick's apartment building blows up killing all residents apart from Dick and Amygdala.
Nightwing #93 (July 2004): Dick turns away as Catalina shoots Blockbuster, Dick has a panic attack, Catalina comes to find Dick on the rooftop as he despairs and she sexually assaults Dick.
Nightwing #95 (Sep 2004): Catalina tries to pressure Dick into marrying her, is blocked by Bruce calling Dick to come back to Gotham due to War Games.
War Games (Oct-Dec 2004): Dick has to fight a gang war and is assigned by Bruce to work with Catalina through it as Dick hasn't spoken to Bruce about what happened. Dick ends up with a serious leg injury.
Outsiders #19-20 (Feb-Mar 2005): Lian is kidnapped by child slavers and rescued. (Arguably could take place prior to War Games)
Outsiders #20-22 (Mar-May 2005): Bruce revealed to be funding the Outsiders, Dick goes and yells at Bruce about this, Slade revealed to have been funneling information to Roy and pretending to be Batman. (Again cannot be long after War Games, probably before)
Nightwing #100 (Feb 2005): Dick and Babs officially break up, Dick walks away from being a superhero, Dick has not spoken to Bruce.
Teen Titans & Outsiders #24-25 (July-Aug 2005): Both teams have characters get controlled - Kon by Lex and Indigo by Brainiac 8, at the end of the storyline Dick quits. This has to be after Identity Crisis but must be not long after Nightwing #100 given Dick has not yet gone undercover. Also Dick has theoretically been hiding a leg injury and brace for a period here.
Outsiders #26 (Sep 2005): Dick has sex with Kory.
Nightwing #107 (June 2005): Dick is now undercover with the mob and has been for some time. MUST come after the events above.
Nightwing #112 (Nov 2005): Slade talks Dick into training Rose.
Nightwing #114 (Jan 2006): Roy turns up, mad, and argues with Dick to come back.
Nightwing #116: (March 2006): Bludhaven has gone boom. Thanks so much, Slade.
TL:DR; there's a whole chunk of Outsiders in 2005 that has to have happened approximately around War Games due to Dick's knee injury, and since Teen Titans spent six months of title hopping through time immediately prior, you can shift both titles for their crossover right up to very shortly after War Games/Identity Crisis in terms of 'Jack is dead but Dick's not yet undercover'.
Actually thinking about it more, it's even more complicated than that, because Teen Titans #20 suggests Outsiders #16 occurred after it, unless Kory's been simultaneously on both teams. I think I have to read this as Kory has been on both teams at the same time to make any of this make sense.
This results in Dick having broke up officially with Babs and then almost immediately had Bad Idea Sex with Kory (after also having been assaulted by Catalina at least once and potentially multiple times while he's in the daze where Catalina tries to convince him that they should get married).
(Seriously why is everyone in Outsiders having random sex with people who are a Very Bad Idea)

Noticed that Elliott has the arrival dates of Luther (3rd event), April 10th 1962, and Allison (2nd event), June 29th 1961, pinned to his wall, and figured I might as well try and calculate how old everyone is..
(Elliott's date for Diego is wrong, placing him at Sep 17th, when he arrived on Sep 1st.)
These are not perfect dates but they should be fairly close? and I'm not very good at maths so please correct me!
Hargreeves' ages in age order:
Five
Disappears at 13 yr, 1 mo, and 9 days old.
His new birthday in the apocalypse is now: 22nd February
+ 45 years in the apocalypse + an unknown amount of time in the commission makes him at least 58 yr, 1 mo, and 9 days old at the start of s1.
+ 8 days in s1 makes him at least 58 yr, 1 mo, and 17 days old at the start of s2.
+ 8 days in s2 makes him at least 58 yr, 1 mo, and 25 days old at the start of s3.
+ 7 days in s3 makes him at least 58 yr, 2 mo, and 2 days old at the end of s3.
From s1 - s3 he has aged 23 days.
Using this estimate (his minimum age) Five's new birthday in the reset universe might be: 5th February
Klaus
Travels to Vietnam at 29 yr, 5 mo, and 26 days old.
(Klaus leaves Vietnam on February 21st, supposedly arriving in Vietnam on April 21st) His new birthday in Vietnam is now: 25th October

Lila
her age is completely unknown. we can guess she's around the same age as the umbrellas but otherwise she's a mystery.
Ritu Arya, her actress, was 32 in 2020 when s2 was released so that's as close to canon as we know right now, (except, the majority of the cast are older than their on screen counterparts, except for David who was actually born in 1989 and Aidan in s1 as he was 13 when he was cast).
The only other information we have on her age is that she was orphaned and kidnapped at 4. and that she spent 3 months in Berlin between s2 and s3.
Sparrows
All of the Sparrows are 29 yrs, 6 mo, 1 day old at the start of s3:
Marcus dies at 29 yrs, 6 mo, 1 day old.
Jayme and Alphonso die at 29 yrs, 6 mo, 3 days old.
Fei and Chris die at 29 yrs, 6 mo, 6 days old.
Sloane goes missing at 29 yrs, 6 mo, 7 days old.
Sparrow Ben enters the reset universe at 29 yrs, 6 mo, 7 days old.
Ben and Sloane's birthday's remain as October 1st
i think? please do correct me if im wrong!
tua s4 speculation under the cut
if s4 is 6 years on then the ages we have are:
Five is 64 in a 19yro body
Klaus is 40
Allison is 38
Luther is 37
Diego is 36
Viktor is 36
Ben is 36
Lila and Diego's kid is probably turning 6 yro.
Claire could be anywhere between 17 and 13 since she seems to be a teenager?

Time Travel Fic Recs Featuring Romy
Welcome to this year’s addition to my Romy Fanfic Rec Collection. I was inspired by the ‘Time Loop’ prompt, though I decided to expand it to cover 'Time Travel' in general. @angel-gidget designed the lovely banner. Thanks Gidge. <3 
And now, I hope you enjoy a few of my favorite time travel fics featuring Rogue and Gambit.
For @roguegambitweek 2025 - Day 7: Free Day, Day 5: Time Loop

Happy Reading!
Fic Summaries and Notes Below the Cut:
Betrayal by Valerie J [ff.net]
Rating: T | Universe: X-Men: Comics | Words: 77,333 | Chapters: 25 | Status: Complete | Date: Oct 10, 2001-Jan 20, 2002 |
Summary: [Complete] When Bishop first joined the X-Men, he warned them that they would be betrayed by one of their own. He was right, but that’s only the beginning of the story. (This story diverges from continuity just after X-Men #45.)
Notes: There is so much story potential in the relationship between Bishop and the Witness. Bring that to the present and you get a fascinating story which touches on so much more than time travel. Relationships are tested, secrets are revealed, and choices are made. This is an excellent fic is the start of a trilogy which is well worth the read.
Call Back Yesterday by xenokattz ( @xenokattz ) [ao3]
Rating: T | Universe: X-Men: Movies | Words: 17,605 | Chapters: 7 | Status: Complete | Date: May 28-29, 2012 |
Summary: After 2005, the world went to shit. That was Logan’s summary. Global climate change. All the TVs were rectangular and thin. All the cars were purportedly powered by electricity. The music sucked. Network explained events with more detail, but the gist of it was after 2005, the world went to shit. And Remy had to fix it before he could go home to good old 1993. 
Notes: This story sticks with me long after I finished reading. While there is something melancholic and bittersweet about it, the fic offers a compelling story of love, community, and saving the world. There’s a figurative ticking clock which keeps you reading right up to the last moment. And, it’s the perfect length that you might find yourself looping around and reading it again after you finish.
The Chase by Chellerbelle ( @chellerbelles ) [ao3] [ff.net]
Rating: T | Universe: WatX | Words: 43,867 | Chapters: 11 | Status: Complete | Date: Jun 7-27, 2012 |
Summary:  In the Present, Gambit tries to auction off Emma Frost’s diamond hand and finds himself caught between the X-men and Sinister’s Marauders. 20 Years in the Future, Professor Xavier seeks to save his X-men from being murdered in the past by the marauders, and prevent the Age of Apocalypse from ever happening. 
Notes: I love the complicated timey-wimey nature of this story. Chelle manages to not only juggle one or two times lines, but plays out a half dozen or so various timelines in over a dozen time frames. And, she makes excellent use of the time travel elements and shows what happens to the future when you use foreknowledge to change your present. 
But Here We Are by AppleJ ( @applejacks1552 ) [ao3]
Rating: M | Universe: X-Men: Comics | Words: 32,978 | Chapters: 30 | Status: Complete | Date: Feb 24, 2019 |
Summary: They never thought this would be possible, but Rogue is uneXpectedly eXpecting. Yet nothing is ever THAT simple in the life of an X-Man. What secret will Gambit discover that complicates their happily-ever-after?
Notes: This is one of those fics you find yourself asking, where's the time travel. And then, it shows up and it is such an important element of the story. It really grabs you as Rogue and Gambit are facing upcoming parenthood--and for anyone who knows the the X-Men, then you know that there are no certainities when it comes to being an X-Man and a parent.
Converging by AnaExpert (Ana Xpert) ( @anaxpert-blog ) [ao3] [ff.net]
Rating: M | Universe: X-Men: Comics | Words: 43,369 | Chapters: 15 | Status: Complete | Date: Jun 4, 2017-Sep 3, 2020 |
Summary: Rogue seems happy with her new life, or is she? Gambit is finally showing signs of moving on from her. Living separate lives, but forever in each other’s hearts. An old buried secret is revealed and it completely changes everything. Expect sex, drama, angst and plot twists.
Note: What if you had the ability to change a painful incident from the past? Would you take the opportunity? This fic grapples with that question along with other complications of what happens to your present when you change the past.
Note.2: The ff.net version may be slightly easier to read. The story has multi-character POV and will change POV within the chapters. The formatting which signifies change of POV didn’t always get transferred over to ao3, so it can take a moment to note the change in POV. POVs are separated in ff.net. 
Chapter 13 - Day 12: Out of Sight, Out of Time of Fourteen Ways to Fall for You by lettersfromnowhere ( @lettersfromn0where ) [Ch 13] [ao3]
Rating: G | Universe: X-Men | Words: 2,256 (31,446) | Chapters: 14 | Status: Complete | Date: Jun 24-Aug 5, 2019 |
Summary: Day 12: because there TOTALLY isn’t enough time travel in the X-Men universe as is! (A time travel AU)
Note: This fic is a lot of fun. There's a framing sequence not only at the beginning and end of the story, but each chapter as well. Aliens want to know if soulmates are real, so they kidnap Rogue and Gambit and put them through a myriad of fanfic tropes. And when it comes to time travel, this chapter hits all the right points you want in a across time romance in a bite size package.
Pearls of Wisdom by chitane ( @unleash-hell-little-one ) [ao3] [ff.net]
Rating: T | Universe: X-Men | Words: 4,838 | Chapters: 3 | Status: WIP | Date: Feb 26-Mar 20, 2021 |
Summary: After a mishap with one of Forge’s latest science projects, Rogue somehow finds herself 12 years into the past. AU Time Travel. 
Notes: I would love to see this fic continue. I want to know what happens. Rogue is in a position where she knows how things are supposed to play out, but doesn't *know* what it was actually like.
A More Perfect World by DemonaHw ( @demonahw ) [ao3]
Rating: T | Universe: XtAS/’97 | Words: 4,797 | Chapters: 2 | Status: WIP | Date: Jun 11, 2024-Jan 8, 2025 |
Summary: Newly arrived with the X-men, Remy LeBeau was growing accustomed to dying. Each time he did he woke up back in his bead on the morning of April 10th. But he could deal with that: he’d seen Groundhog Day and it wasn’t as if he had any plans. But he was starting to realise that
Notes: Yay! A time loop story at last. And, another story I really want to see continue. The novelty of living forever without consequences loses its appeal after a time, and the consequences of repeatedly dying remains even when the death doesn't. The fic really gives the reader something to think about.

LOVE HOLD|⟮little miss maverick⟯
lando norris x wolff reader| wolff reader x f1 grid platonic (mostly)
Tumblr media
a/n: there is no face claim, I just can't resist te perfection that is Anya Taylor-Joy(I wanted to save her for a Häkkinen!reader, but couldn't stop myself when I started the dior montage). those are little snippets from her life between the GQ video and Bahrain 23', to give some context. I gave names to y/n mother, sister, stepfather and etc, because I find mad confusing to put a bunch of y/mn, y/s/n, y/bff/n, it gets tiring and confusing especially if it comes one after the other in a social media tag or paragraph, thats the only reason I gave them names. there is a few tennis players in this story, not too crazy, but as it is a character a little bit inspired by break point some of those guys will show up and the netflix show will be mentioned. comment and give it a like if you like, I love to read what you guys have to say and your thoughts. I also gave a name to the series, it is very cliche but I couldn't think of nothing better.

When did One first meet Oneion? How did that ever happen unless I missed something...?
ok, fun thing about that: I don't know
LISTEN
Oneion started (besides of what I've said before of me sketching some designs for him and Ell starting to do fanart before the design was even close to done) because there were a lot of F!Leo timetraveling stuff going on and you know how in most fics he immediately goes against Leo? well, I thought "haha what if the other way around" and I had One being the one (no pun intended) to attack Oneion, and just like that an AU of the AU was born where almost all is the same as the normal au but there's a future One there judging everything One does
So in that AU Oneion (who is actually around his mid 20s and just started to lead the resistance himself) accidentally time travels and arrives to the normal separated au, One goes attack mode and demands an explination on who he is, Oneion is not al all amused and just pushes him off.
But I cant talk much about that AU, because normal au spoilers
then there were these asks (along some others)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
that still haunt my inbox, at first because I was still figuring out how the movie events are gonna play out (i kind of already have an idea but also is not set in stone), also because by that time One has already changed, he's been trough his character arc, so he doesnt act the way he does now
"but what if he did" my brain said one night as I was trying to fall asleep "what if he travels to Oneion's time and lives the apocalypse first hand while still on his Number One bullshit" by brain continued, driving me down the dark path of another AU of the AU situation
One and Oneion (in this au he's somewhere around 35 years old) met a diferent way here, in a bit more chill way, well, at least they dont attack each other on sight, I have a lot of thoughts about this au but I dont want to get to that since I wont be able to shut up about it if I start and I have barely started the normal sep au as it is
Oneion acts a bit diferent in each of those AUs as in one he's younger than the other, and his and One's relationship carry somewhat different but also lead to the same path of both growing into each other
now, Oneion as the crossovers guy you guys know is kind of a combination of the two, tho mostly leans towards the second au I mentioned, tho in my mind the way he and One met is closer to the first AU, with Oneion just randomly poping in
then there's also him first meeting with Poptart and Sprout, thing Ell and I have thought about and I want to draw but haven't gotten the time for

30 years ago today, Depeche Mode became among the earliest bands to go on the Internet to interact with fans, as the group held a question-and-answer session on AOL. The event is marred by technical difficulties as many participants, including the band. (x Eric Alper)

50 years ago today.
On Sep. 1, 1974, Maj. James V. Sullivan and Maj. Noel Widdifield set a new world speed record from New York to London, as our friend Linda Sheffield Miller (Col Richard (Butch) Sheffield’s daughter, Col. Sheffield was an SR-71 Reconnaissance Systems Officer) on her Facebook Page Habubrats. It took less than two hours.
This mission might’ve been the ‘gateway plan’ to have SR-71 stationed in England. The United States was fortunate to be able to house two SR-71s at RAF Mildenhall years later. This was a huge help to have SR-71 in Europe [SR-71 Reconnaissance Operations at RAF Mildenhall was from April 1976 to 1990. Prior to Det 4 being established, UK permission was required for each sortie flown. According to the SR-71 Blackbirds website, the SR-71’s stay would be no longer than 20 days for each visit.
Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher announced that Det 4 would be a permanent SR-71 Detachment with two aircraft assigned. The UK remained in control of the more sensitive missions. The two aircraft Detachments ceased operations on Nov. 22, 1989. The last aircraft departed the UK on Jan. 18, 1990.
The US Government has given the United Kingdom an SR-71 #962 for public display at Duxford Imperial War Museum for its contribution to ending the Cold War.]. Blackbirds based at Mildenhall could fly around the Baltic Sea and take pictures of potential targets in the Soviet Union using their side-looking cameras [without crossing the Soviet border].
On September 1, 1974 Major James V. Sullivan, 37 (pilot) and Noel F. Widdifield, 33 (reconnaissance systems officer) flashed across the starting line (radar gates in New York) at approximately 80,000 feet and speed in excess of 2,000 miles per hour. Exactly 1 hour 54 minutes and 56.4 seconds later, they had set a new world speed record from New York to London England.
The average speed was 1,807 statute mph over the 3,461 statute mile course, slowing to refuel one time from a specially modified KC-135 refueling tanker. The aircraft was placed on static display at Farnborough Air Show for 1 week. It marked the first time the secret plane had been on public display outside of the United States. ”Kelly” Johnson, the aircraft designer, was on hand for the event. He remarked, “It (the SR-71) has exceeded all my expectations.”
Another historic speed record was set on the return trip to the United States. Captain Harold B. Adams, 31 (pilot), and Major William Machorek, 32 (reconnaissance systems operator), set a speed record from London to Los Angeles. They returned the Blackbird 5,447 statute miles in 3 hours 47 minutes and 39 seconds for an average speed of 1,435 miles per hour. The difference in the two speed records was due to refueling requirements and having to slow over major US cities.’
Even so a large number of people in Los Angeles reported broken windows due to the sonic boom. One of those people was actress, Zaza’s Gabor, who complained bitterly about her broken windows. To appease her Captain Adams and Major Machorek went to Zazas Home to apologize. They brought their wives with them. Zaza only allowed the SR-71 Crew to come into her home! The wives had to sit in the car. Very bad manners on the movie stars part.
The trip from New York to London 50 years ago became a beautiful friendship between allies, the United States and Great Britain .
We both worked hard to win the Cold War.
