#and the obligatory beach episode (tm)

[noa748]

NR chapter 69 is halfway (ish) done!! Or maybe more, my goal is 10k words lol but I'm going to find a good stopping point rather than an arbitrary word count. Just not sure when the natural stopping point is yet

Kinda struggling with the lack of action. It's hard to just gloss over the character's internal struggles during the last tour of tethe'alla before the final seal... and I love writing character interactions but I worry that it gets stale for the reader ;_; it's going to be a total shitshow once they get to the tower of mana but I just need to... GET THERE...

Also Brit's birthday falls on this chapter which makes me cackle because I'm immature

The most stupid idea I had, but wanted to share. Obligatory Beach Episode(tm) and PTM!Yuu asks Ace or Deuce to help them with thier sunscreen (their probably the top 5 boys in the school they trust not to make it weird) but as soon as one of them starts, Yuu doesn't even hear Jade's thoughts, they just get overwhelmed with Jade going "Bruce-from-Nemo-smelling-blood" mode at what he's seeing (Yuu in a swimsuit, another guy rubbing cream on them).

Or something, as per usual, I get silly ideas when I'm very tired.

PTM Jade is funny in that he knows, logically, that Yuu's interactions with their friend group, especially Ace and Deuce, is purely platonic. There's nothing inherently romantic or sexual about them rubbing sunscreen on their back. In fact, Ace is more likely to spirit a huge glob of sunscreen and slap in on their face as a joke than to let his hands wander.

But Neptune help him, he's jealous. Why can't he be the one to help you? He's just as dependable, maybe more so! And, in a more possessive area of his brain, Jade's lowkey fuming at the sight of someone else being physical with you. He wants it, he can't have it, why does someone else get the privilege of touching your skin!

No one else can tell of course, he has the same pleasant smile on his face. But Yuu? Yuu knows, and Yuu is considering just covering up in a baggy shirt.

Hey Yo, The Timeline is Wack (DSMP, TftSMP)

So.... if the L’manberg Independence wars was based off of the American Revolution (because of Wilbur’s obligatory Hamilton the musical reference) then I assume that the main setting for the timeline to be the 1700s (18th century).

in Tales from the SMP, it’s been estimated that the Masquerade takes place some time after 1857 due to the vintage of the wine in Sir Billiam's mansion. Canonically, the Wild West takes place around the same time. So, technically, these two stories take place after the present timeline.

This doesn’t make sense regarding the Egg lore, however. Unless we consider simply that an ancestor of Techno’s got corrupted by the Egg at some point. As for the mansion, I assume Billiam restored the mansion he kept the Egg as the mansion Skeppy and Bad found was broken down.

So Timeline wise it’d be like:

The Village that Went Mad

1962-1963

Based off of the Salem Witch Trials

L’Manberg Revolution

1765-1784

Based off of the American Revolution

The Haunted Mansion

1765-1784

Canonically takes places a few months after Jschlatt’s death.

The Town that Never Was

It’s apparently parallel to present timeline (1765-1784)

Based off of the upload ((December 26, 2020)) it takes place between Technoblade’s Execution and the Green Festival

Either the characters are supposed to be different people, or it’s a parallel universe completely.

The Beach Episode

Also parallel to present time (1765-1784)

Uploaded on January 9th 2021 - just before Wilbur’s first (and failed) resurrection attempt by Philza and Eret

Debatably canon, could be a parallel universe altogether since Karl had God-mode (creative) there.

The Masquerade

Sometime after 1857

Uploaded first, so I assume it takes place before TWW (the difference could just be a few months).

The Wild West

Canonically takes place at the same time as the Masquerade (after 1857)

Uploaded second, so I assume it takes place after TM (the difference could just be a few months).

The Pit

Very steampunk themed - could take place anywhere between 1837 to1914

Since its confirmed future, and follows the eye-wear rule, I assume closer to the 1900s.

The Lost City of Mizu 

Sometime around the 1900s.

Canonically takes place 1 year after The Pit

Hope you enjoyed my bs crack-theory lmao--
