ooohhh new pet peeve just now. when people use BBY for fics that take place before BBY (battle of yavin) or even for fics where ITS AN AU SO THE BATTLE OF YAVIN DOES NOT TAKE PLACE. it hurts my little calendar nerd heart

#like ik the dating system can be a bit confusing pre- original trilogy #and by a bit I mean a lot #bc there's so many different Star Wars calendars and I love it!#I think I've seen atc/btc (treaty of coruscant) used in fic before #and in people's defense BBY/ABY is what wookiepedia uses #I have my issues with wookiepedia but I will stay on topic #but every time I see BBY on a fic wherein the battle yavin 1- has not happened yet or2- never occurs im just immediately taken out of it #fic writing #calendars #star wars #battle of yavin #Prequel Trilogy #original trilogy #meta?#ao3 #tcw #The Clone Wars
