The Twitter Drama AU Timeline
finally, after months, we finally have a timeline. this is not exhaustive (i tried to mainly include the super important parts, and some less important parts i thought were REALLY funny), and is probably only 75% accurate due to the non-linear nature we wrote the fic in to begin with, but it is better than nothing! updated as of chapter 10 (low hanging fruits)
12th March 2023: Tiny Diamond is born, Creek is his other dad, which is kept a secret from everyone except Guy and Creek.
November 2023: The events of Band Together, almost completely identical. Following which, Brozone get back together and start working on their reunion album. Now that Branch is in the spotlight, Barb is forced to acknowledge her ex girlfriend (one night stand) Poppy is a lot happier with a transfem butch, which sparks Barb’s descent into terfism. Val and Creek briefly see each other.
December 2023: John Dory gets his Twitter confiscated by Clay. Floyd gets his sex tape leaked (by Creek). Clay throws Viva under the bus for the first time. Clay accidentally gets Bruce accused of cheating on his wife, but they pin it on Branch, who just organised a fake breakup with Poppy because he was uncomfortable with all the smutfic. Riff leaves Barb’s band, and collabs with Creek but calls him an asshole. Velvet gets out of prison and writes a callout thread on Floyd. Floyd gets cancelled for the first time. Creek and Floyd start seeing each other in secret.
January 2024: Val publicly comes out as nonbinary and is kicked out of Barb’s band, then outs Barb as a nepo baby as revenge. JD tries to sneak back onto stantwt but is doxxed. Floyd tells Branch about his relationship with Creek; Branch is surprisingly fine with it as long as Creek is suffering, and boy does he suffer.
February 2024: A misunderstanding leads everyone to think Branch broke up with Poppy because he’s a gay man. He comes out as a lesbian but is immediately met with vitriol of both the exclusionist and transmisogynistic varieties. Barbtwt have a bone to pick with Hickory but he comes out on top. Clay throws Viva under the bus again but this time she's had enough, and releases an expose video on him and kicks him out of the pod. Viva and Floyd become BFFs.
March 2024: Dating rumours about Smidge and Poppy start, which Smidge does nothing to help. Barb accuses Smidge’s actual boyfriend of being a pedophile, and gets ratio’d. Creek and Floyd go public with their relationship.
June 2024: Guy Diamond gets into controversy after soliciting a camgirl and his family vlog channel goes on hiatus. Clay and Viva get back together, and Viva records revenge porn of him to “keep him in line”.
August 2024: Biggie gets into mild controversy that escalates into cancelation when he responds in character as Mr Dinkles. Clay and Vivas relationship becomes undeniably abusive, but they’re really good at hiding it.
September 2024: Floyd and Creek get married! Satin & Chenille have Velvet on their podcast. Guy Diamond gets cancelled after being outed as Pro-Life. 
15th December 2024: Floyd and Creek have twins, Brad and Angelina [LASTNAME]-[LASTNAME2-.
April 2025: Creek and Floyd drop all pretences of thinking they’re a healthy couple.
12th May 2025: Creek aborts his second egg. They would have been named Shiloh. Floyd is distraught and gets harassed on Twitter again for being Pro-Life.
August 2025: Creek and Floyd divorce.
September 2025: It comes to light that DJ Suki is stealing from her niece CJ.
December 2025: Creek and Floyd get back together. Val stops hiding their racism from twitter and get doxxed by KPop fans. They have to live with their mother.
January 2026: Harper starts drawing Bruce as a transphobic caricature, a skinny feminine twink.
February 2025: Viva stops taking birth control. Branch gets doxxed for the first time (by Cloud Guy). Dante starts stalking Branch.
March 2026: jdtwt find out that JD used to have a thing with Delta Dawn, and harass her a bit. The two get back in touch, and Delta tells JD that they actually had a kid together (Holly Darling). JD is thrilled about being a dad. Holly is initially apprehensive but eventually comes around. JD gives Delta Cooties (it’s okay, there’s a cure). Sky Toronto buys Twitter.Crimp gets run off the internet for uncomfortable roleplay with Tiny Diamond (pretending to be 14). Velvet gets cancelled for workplace abuse. Smidge starts queerbaiting by selling merch of referencing her and Poppy’s fake relationship.
April 2026: Tiny Diamond reveals he is not actually 14, he is physically 3 years old (but for our purposes he is functionally 9 because Trolls age weird). He loses all his OOMFs (CJ, Preiscilla, Keith (all approx 13)) and has his account suspended. Branch gets really jealous over Smidge and publicly shittalks her. He and Poppy “get back together” but set the “boundary” that any smutfic about either of them can only be Broppy (obviously not everyone follows this rule).
May 2026: Cloud Guy leaks Smidge’s miscarriage after being paid off by Barbtwt. Branch gets doxxed for the third time. Poppy demands Sky Toronto take action so he permabans Cloud Guy’s IP. Cloud Guy goes to live with his parents.
June 2026: Gust Tumbleweed is violently homophobic to Synth during an LGBT charity event, but faces no consequences because he starts flirting with his fellow straight male friends again. Poppy gets sick of Dante stalking Branch so she prepares to take matters into her own hands. Holly Darlin starts selling snake oil, from the same company that supplies for Satin & Chenille. Holly and Satin start dating.
July 2026: Satin & Chenille (both Creek’s exes) are invited to the Floyd and Creek household for dinner to ‘bury the hatchet’, where they witness blackmailable activities and force them both to come on their podcast and embarrass themselves (mostly Floyd).
August 2026: Demo falls in love with Gust after being flirted with for several months, breaks up with his current girlfriend (DJ Suki) and gets very VERY aggressively turned down by Gust. Dante sends a glitter bomb to Branch’s pod, so Poppy beats him up, but Dante calls the cops on her and she faces legal trouble. Harper starts drawing Creek as a trans man, even though Creek is a cis man, because she felt like it. It catches on. Biggie gets cancelled for something unspecified but really, really bad.
September 2026: Guy Diamond faces controversy for thinking Troll babies sleeping in beds causes Autism, which he got from Creek, who he used to date and is now interested in again. Clay starts nearing his brink wrt Viva and stays with JD for a bit. Viva finds an egg in her hair, which she soon loses (19th). Cloud Guy kills himself. Biggie overdoses while playing Overwatch. Veneer gets hit by a bus.
October 2026: Sky Toronto and Nova Swift get divorced (she leaves him for a trans Troll). Branch and Poppy get an egg, and Viva is the first they tell, so she manipulates them into thinking they’d be awful parents and she can take care of it for them. Viva uses the egg to convince Clay to come home.
31st October 2026: The egg Viva stole from Branch and Poppy hatches. Their name is Ha’Penny Hatch. Since the kid looks nothing like either “parents”, Clay figures that Viva cheated on him and finally goes grey.
November 2026: Harper deletes all her socials when her proship side account is found. Gust tricks Demo into thinking his feelings are finally returned, only to crush his heart again publicly during a subathon.
December 2026: BrozoneRonpa resurfaces. Branch accidentally says something offensive about Guy Diamond publicly, and Guy capitalises on the potential controversy, which leads to intense Guy VS Floyd beef (they are both interested in the same man (only Floyd is married to him). Nova Swift moves to Mount Rageous, leaving S&C in need of a podcast producer, and Fuzzbert is their only hope but expects a big paycheck.
January 2027: Guy Diamond reveals that Tiny Diamond is actually Creek’s son. Floyd goes to stay with Branch. Bruce finds out the real reason Clay went grey and his immediate plan is to fake Clay’s suicide and take him with him to Vacay Island. JD, Viva and Penny are the only members of Clay’s immediate family who don’t know he’s still alive. Clay’s funeral is livestreamed on Twitch. Holly Darlin’s newly rekindled relationship with her dad is halted in its infancy.

Several Sentences Sunday
Fanonwriter2023 on AO3
Where CANON and FANON collide!
FANON Future Buddie Fanfic Series
First Child (Buck) & First Baby (Buck and Eddie)- Buck's first child and Buck and Eddie's first babies.
New Buddie Fanfic
Part 15 - Chapter 6 will be posted soon.
Tumblr media
First Child (Buck) & First Baby (Buck and Eddie) - Currently 101.9K Words and 5 of 7 Chapters have been posted; Rated: Mature
Chapters will be posted one at a time.
___________
I'm excited to finish writing Chapter 6 because a lot happened in Chapter 5. In November 2024, Buck was worried about how tired and fatigued Eddie had been, so after an emotionally angsty conversation, he scheduled him an emergency doctor's appointment for December 2nd. Also, they celebrated their one-year wedding anniversary the weekend before Christmas and Eddie planned all of it. In February 2025, they got a call from an attorney and neither of them knew why he was calling and they were both anxious to find out the reason.
___________
Here's a snippet from Chapter 6 of a phone conversation that started with Buck answering but Eddie continues it while Bobby, Chimney, Hen and Ravi stand around the loft at the station waiting to find out what's happening. (Hint: It's more from the cliffhanger at the end of Chapter 5.)
___________
Since Buck and Eddie rescued the employees who were stuck inside of an elevator at an office building earlier today, they’re quietly sitting and Buck’s head is lying on top of Eddie’s shoulder.  They’re holding hands and Buck’s gently rubbing his thumb across the side of Eddie’s when his phone starts ringing.  Without lifting his head, he removes it from his pocket, reads the display and since there’s a number for an attorney’s office located in Los Angeles listed that’s different from Ms. Dalton’s law firm, he declines the call.
After he slides it back into his pocket, in less than 10 seconds, it starts ringing again and when he takes it out this time and he sees the same number, his eyes widen and his breath catches in his throat.  Immediately, the sinking feeling he had Monday morning about something being wrong returns and he believes whoever’s calling, they won’t have any good news to share.  If someone were to ask him, he wouldn’t be able to explain it other than to say that he’s been on the receiving end of bad news too many times for his feelings about this to be wrong.
Once it rings for the fourth time, he lifts his head and looks at his husband.
When Eddie’s brown eyes meet his blue ones, instantly he notices the fear in them and he asks, “What’s wrong?”
His question causes the rest of the team to be on alert and in less than 2 seconds they all stand and walk over to figure out what’s happening.  The four of them did the same thing back in December 2023 when Eddie received a call from a number he didn’t recognize.
Once it rings a fifth time, Buck says, “Babe, it’s someone from an attorney’s office calling but uh… it’s not our attorney.”
Eddie bites his bottom lip and his eyes widen because he’s 100% sure this can’t be good since attorneys don’t just call out of the blue and they don’t solicit business via telemarketers either.  He gently squeezes Buck’s hand to remind him that he’s right next to him and replies, “It may be important.  Do you want me to answer it?”
Slowly, he shakes his head no, then he slides his finger across the screen, clears his throat and says, “Hello?”
“Good morning, my name is Lawton Gurnsey and I’m an attorney with the Blaylock, Gurnsey and Madison law firm.  May I please speak with Mr. Evan Matthew Buckley-Diaz?”
“Uh… this is he but I’m not familiar with you.  Can you tell me the reason for your call?”
“My apologies.  I should explain further because it’s possible when you were told about me, my name may not have been mentioned but I’m an attorney here in Los Angeles and the reason for my call regards William and Sandra Miller.”
While looking at Eddie, the fear that’s rising in his chest intensifies.
When Eddie sees the look on his face change, he whispers, “It’s ok, I’m right here and I’m not going anywhere.”
Everything starts happening in slow motion for Buck and it begins with the phone slipping out of his hand.  It’s followed by a loud white noise that fills the space between his ears and with every second that passes, it gets louder and louder.
Once a couple of seconds have passed since Buck last responded to the caller, he starts loudly speaking into the receiver and asks, “Mr. Buckley-Diaz are you still there, sir?”
Eddie hears him and so does the rest of A-shift.
While continuing to maintain eye contact with his husband, Eddie picks it up and replies, “Hello, my name is Eddie and I’m Buck’s husband.  He’s not able to respond but if you’re allowed to speak with me, I can handle the call.”
“You’re Mr. Edmundo Marques Buckley-Diaz, correct?”
“Yes, I am.  Could you please tell me your name and the reason for your call?”
Why is an attorney calling Buck and Eddie early on a Wednesday morning in February 2025? 🤷🏽‍♀️
What information does he have about Sandra and Bill? 👀

Their Firsts, At Last - 200K Words; Currently 14 completed works and 1 in progress: A multi-part fanfic series about the romantic “firsts” Buck and Eddie share as they journey through life in an established relationship and their lives as a couple will include some of Buck’s individual “firsts” too. It’s filled with the FANON love, romance, fluff and domesticity their relationship should have been allowed to experience in CANON. The second part of the series title was adapted from the song “At Last” by Etta James.
This series of FANON future speculation fanfics is being written on a continuous timeline that begins with the start of season 7 (if it were to start in September 2023). Each part ends at a specific point in Buck and Eddie’s relationship so the next part can begin with the ending of the previous part. Therefore, parts 1-14 should be read prior to reading part 15 and the series will continue in that manner until it’s complete.
Parts 1 - 15 are available on AO3
Part 15 has 7 chapters but they will be posted one at a time. Currently, Chapter 1 - 5 are available on AO3.
Chapter 6 will be posted soon and this is the last fic in the series.

I noticed for Issue 76 that the solicitation has it for a December release, but Penguin Random House has it slated for February 2025. Is this a mistake from the latter?
I’m not involved with that issue so I’m not sure if that’s true or not

Former President Trump Faces 13 Counts of Criminal Charge
By Tannu Punn, The State University of New York Cortland, Class of 2025
August 27, 2023
Tumblr media
Former President Trump and eighteen others were criminally charged for the efforts to overturn Joe Biden's 2020 win in Georgia. The Atlanta-area grand jury is the fourth jury to implicate Trump, which follows a 2-and-a-half-year investigation by Fulton County District Attorney Fani T. Willis that also resulted in charges against Trump's attorney Rudy Giuliani. The grand jury claimed that all those charged have their arrest warrants ready and have until August 25, 2023, to surrender. Trump and his team have seemed to be open about his surrender, which may occur on or near the day of the first Republican presidential primary debate. 
The investigation first began in February 2021, when there was an audio leak between Former President Trump and Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger. In the recording, Trump was caught saying that he wanted to "find" the votes to reverse Biden's victory in the state of Georgia. Towards the conclusion of the investigation, Trump was charged with 13 counts, including violating the state's racketeering, soliciting a public officer to violate their oath, conspiring to impersonate a public officer, and conspiring to file false documents.
To break all of Trump's 13 counts, one can start with violating Georgia's racketeering act. (RICO- Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act) This Act allows prosecutors to charge a number of people they believe are involved in organized crime. In other words, it allows the prosecutor to connect disconnected crimes, if they believe they are committed as part of one organized crime. All defendants are facing this charge, which began with the wrongdoing that was carried out during the 2020 presidential election. The indictment claims that the group refused to accept that Trump lost the election, so they joined together to change the outcome of the election unlawfully. This group carried out a host of criminal actions to support this goal.
The second charge was the solicitation of violation of oath by a public officer, which relates to Trump's attempt at election fraud. He repeatedly contacted the top Republican leaders in Georgia, including the state's governor, lieutenant governor, and more. However, this charge is more specifically focused on Trump's call with the Speaker of the House, where Trump persuaded him to a special session with the purpose of "unlawfully appointing presidential electors" from Georgia.
Third charge: conspiracy to commit impersonating a public officer. Trump and others were accused of having people "falsely hold themselves as duly elected and qualified presidential electors" from Georgia to be counted. This was all done in favor of pushing for more pro-Trump electors unlawfully.
Fourth charge: Conspiracy to commit forgery in the first degree. This charge is similar to Trump and the others pushing for more Trump electors unlawfully. Specifically, they wrote in writing that they conspired "to knowingly make a document titled 'Certificate of the Votes of the 2020 Electors From Georgia.'" This document was falsely purported to be from actual presidential electors in Georgia.
Fifth charge: Conspiracy to commit false statements and writing. Similarly, this refers to the document described above. Trump and others claimed that the document was signed by "the duly elected and qualified Electors" from Georgia.
Sixth Charge: Conspiracy to commit to filing false statements. This is like the above charge. However, this targets Trump and the others' "knowing" that the document contained materially false statements, but still filing it.
Seventh Charge: Conspiracy to commit forgery in the first degree. This is a similar charge to the previous charge with the claim that the document was signed by qualified presidential electors from the state of Georgia when they did not give such authority and then sent to the Archivist of the US. This document was titled "RE: Notice of Filling of Electoral College Vacancy."
Eighth Charge: Conspiracy to commit false statements and writings. This refers to the same document above, but in this charge, Trump and others are accused of conspiring to make and use of this document, even though it contained false statements
Ninth Charge: Filing false documents. This charge is focused on Trump and Josh Eastman (Trump's lawyer) for conspiring to file a false document in court.
Tenth Charge: Solicitation of violation of oath by a public officer. This charge accuses Trump of persuading Brad Raffensperger, the Republican Secretary of State, to commit a felony by influencing the certified returns for presidential electors in Georgia. He was called by Trump just days before Congress was set to certify the election results saying that he needs to find votes to overcome Biden's victory.
The last three charges similarly focus on false statements and solicitation or violation of oath by a public officer. Calling on other public officials to commit crimes for his wants and desires is a crime and so is filing false statements knowing that they were purported.
As of August 25, 2023, Trump has surrendered to the authorities in Fulton County Jail, and he was later released on bond.
