The BRCU Timelines - A Summary of the Core Overarching Plotline

Pre-BtH Timeline - "Old/Original Timline"

The British Timeline

The Elmer Revolution Timeline

Post-BtH Timeline - "New/Current Timeline"

(Coloured-coded in rainbow order to help remember the timeline occurring order; as in red comes before green, and so does the corresponding timelines, hope this helps!)

1920s - Donna Phitts is born

1971 - Bryce Tankthrust and Bobby Worst are born

2011 - Sebastian Hernandez is born

2018 - Sebastian Hernandez gets a gang sign tattooed on his left arm by the Eldest Elmer in order to continue hiding in his tattoo shop after running away from Helen Brownstein at the beach.

2033 - Blame (Sebastian Hernandez) buys a time machine off of Craigslist in order to travel back in time and tell his past self to change a gang sign tattoo he got as a seven year old. He loses the time machine upon arrival at the beach and after exchanging ownership several times the time machine ends up in the possession of Lord & Lady Mingeworthy, who travel back in time to the year 1865. In 1865, the Mingeworthies are forced to give the time machine to Lucious Cowpussy and Vivian Delongprix, trapping them in 1865. Lucious and Vivian use the time machine to return to 2018, where after exchanging further bouts of ownership returns to Blame, who finally tells his seven year old self to not get the gang sign. Thinking his plan has been a success, Blame returns to 2033 only to find that the displacement of the Mingeworthies from 2018 to 1865 has created a new timeline due to their interferance with historical events; the British timeline.

2033, 1865, 2018 - Blame goes on a fetch-quest through time and space that eventually prevents the Mingeworthies from possessing the time machine in the first place, whilst still allowing the Eldest Elmer (then, known as Tattoo Shop Elmer) to temporarily access the time machine and scheme with Hitler to create the Elmer Revolution timeline.

2018 - The original (non-main character) Blame who travelled back to 2018 to get his tattoo changed decides to hand over his time machine, and stay in 2018. This prompts the events of Stuff & Sam several months later.

Thanks to "lime-a-dozen," whose reveal name is revealed to be Donna Phitts, Blame's life is spared after a near-fatal injury and he is subsequently given a new identity as a man named George.

For the forgotten ones SPOILERSS!!

Chapter 37

Im definitely making art. Still needs coloring and rendering but im almost finished, its just hard cuz I need a lot of layers, Im so excited to show y'all this art!

Reading that chapter gave me a whiplash. I cannot stress you enough how much that chapter emotionally fucked me up. Everything was happening so fast that I needed to put my phone and lay down for a moment, just to p r o c e s s what happened to everyone.

First, Error (my baby) got healed and hugged Ink, also Broomie appeared.

Second, The gang got corrupted (killer got left behind)

Third, Blue ALMOST died! Ink is holding him together and I'm praying he doesn't die.

And LAST, Ignited Dream.

Im going to be completely honest I frEAKED OUT LIKE AAAAA IGNITED DREAM!!! MY BABY!!! WHEN CORE FRISK CAME RUNNING SAYING THAT IGNITED DREAM AND CORRUPTED NIGHTMARE ARE FIGHTING IN THE OMEGA TIMELINE, I YELLED AND SCREAMED AND WALKED AROUND THE HOUSE.

[nymphthroughthestargate]

so I'm thinking about the time setting - when does Nymph come into SG-1? and the answer is sometime after Cassie but maybe before jolinar, so somewhere near the end of s1. which leaves plenty of adventures but has some characters already introduced.

Always Favors You

Another Sibling Danny and Jason idea!!

"Are you Jason Peter Todd?!" demanded a deep and commanding tone from the strange glowing being in front of them.

All the Bats stiffened and tensed, no doubt gearing up for a fight against the being that somehow knew Red Hood's full name.

Jason, Red Hood, decided to put on a brave front despite no doubt cursing in his head and wondering how the heck did this thing know his full freaking name.

"Whose asking." he snarled out, his hands twitching for his gun when the huge glowing knight with purple flames coming out of his helmet and cape, who was riding on a nightmare looking horse while they all had been in the cave going over tonight's patrol.

The Knight didn't seemed bothered by his response nor did he even seem to care or flinch when Batman made his own demand on 'Why was he there and who was he' or when Damian unsheathed his sword and pointed it towards him. Instead the strange glowing Knight reached to it side and pulled out... A glowing scroll? Huh. (Also he completely unnerved everyone in the room when the Knight didn't even react when Batman had tossed a Baterang when he reached for his side)

The Knight opened the scroll and spoke clearly with purpose.

"Jason Peter Todd,

You are hereby invited as a special guest of honor to the crowning of our future King of the Infinite Realms.

Daniel Phantom, once Daniel Jackson Fenton, and once Daniel Austen Todd.

Prince of the Infinite Realms, the Keeper of Balance, The Peacekeeping Halfa, the Defeater of the Tyrant King Pariah Dark, The Great One, Youngest of the Ancients, Ancient of Space, The Bridge between Life and Death.

You, the half-brother of our King, have been given the highest of honors for your past actions and will be given housing and food in the Realms and Phantom's Keep, for the week long event. Personal servants and attendants will be at your disposal and a seamstress will be on hand to tailor make your attire for the Coronation.

Signed: Clockwork. Ancient of Time. Watcher of the Infinite Timeline. Kronos. Mentor and Adviser.

PS: I shall have Fright Knight ("Me" the Knight bluntly said for a second) leave this scroll along with a personal one for you from Daniel to read over and once you make up your mind sign the bottom of the scroll.

I do hope in time you will pick the right choice Jason Todd, we of the Infinite Realms would like to reward you for your actions. After all, if you hadn't gotten young Daniel away from your father that night all those years ago, we would never had gained our Prince nor be free from our once Tyrant King.

Ah, one more thing.

The Infinite Realms will always favor you Jason."

Jason felt like he couldn't breath as Fright Knight? Rolled up the scroll, pulled a letter from his side, and held out the two items for him to take.

END OF CHAPTER ONE

FORGETTABLE-AU (Page 65-72)

* Time to put this puzzle together.

[BEGINNING] [PREVIOUS] [CONTINUE]

[miscellaneousrenaissant]

Thinking about how Chilchuck and Laios started adventuring at around the same relative time in their lives

There are a bunch of similarities to their backstories - leaving home at a young age (14, 12), starting careers in exploring dungeons as young adults (19, 22), developing a complex about the first monster that killed them (Mimics, Living Armor), getting scammed or taken advantage of by other adventurers (succubus-hunting party, gold-peelers) - that they give me "past and future" vibes

Chilchuck is the older mentor to the less-experienced Laios. He joined Laios' party when Laios had only been exploring the dungeon for a year, and Chilchuck regularly gives advice based on his own 10 years of experience in an effort to support Laios as leader. There are several occasions of Chilchuck either teaching or wishing Laios would learn something in particular that he thinks would help with the job

Laios is a reflection of Chilchuck's past from when he was just starting out as a naive adventurer, while Chilchuck is an example of the future that Laios is striving towards as a seasoned dungeon explorer and leader

But also, they can represent missed opportunities and paths not taken for each other

An example for Chilchuck is that he isn't treated with the same respect as a tall-man because he is a half-foot. He can lead a union of half-foots, but leading a party of other races, many of whom would infantilize him, is unlikely. There are limitations to what he can do (physically and socially) compared to Laios simply because of how each were born, and it's partly why he's so hard on Laios to make him a good leader and not waste the opportunities afforded to him

Meanwhile as an example for Laios, who left his family and fiancée behind when going out on his own at 12 years old, who wasn't shocked that Chilchuck became a father at 13, and who even mentioned that some tall-men get married at 13, too...

If Laios had never left home, would he, at 13, have married someone from his childhood and also become a father of three?

[cubbihue]

Did Peri tell Timmy that he was planning to become a Fairy Godparent/that he was assigned a godkid? When we first see the fam reunite in the series, Cosmo and Wanda didn't seem to know.

Timmy had known Peri might pursue becoming a godparent, because Peri had consulted with him about career tracks!! And like. Being the only one invited to Peri's college graduation tends to give Timmy more insight than his parents. Special older brother privileges.

As for being assigned a Godkid, Timmy sorta... Stumbled into it. He found out long before Peri was told he had been given an assignment!

Timeline Theory Masterpost & References

These are the following Timelines I mention across all my theories, in BRCU appearance order.

The Pre-BtH Timeline - "Old/Original Timline"

The British Timeline

The Abraham Lincoln Lives Timeline

The Elmer Revolution Timeline

The Post-BtH Timeline - "Current/New Timeline"

Links to theories! Please keep in mind the date they were posted, and as more lore is released, recent theories will contain the most updated, canon information to speculate on.

A Summary of the Main Overarching BRCU Plotline

This masterlist summarises the key dates for significant events in Stuff & Sam, Blame the Hero, Normal British Series, and BRYCE in a chronological timeline of both The Old Timeline and The Current Timeline.

A Summary of Bryce Tankthrust's Life & Timelines

A concise and succinct look at Bryce Tankthrust's life using a detailed timeline for reference of significant dates and events.

Important Key Dates Mentioned in the BRCU

This is a preliminary summarisation made prior to the masterlist, but goes into great detail of the following: Dates for Bryce Tankthrust's presidency and Normal British Series, the two Blames seen in BtH episode "A Botched Beach" and ADATB.

How does A Day At The Beach impact when Stuff & Sam Occurs?

This theory analyses how ADATB occurs in multiple seperate timelines, and uses the events of Blame the Hero to illustrate when specific timelines start, finish, and change over the course of multiple ADATB iterations. This analysis is then used to explain how Stuff & Sam occurs after Blame the Hero.

Cloning Elmers in The Old Timeline vs Purchasing Orphan Hearts in The Current Timeline

Written Pre-BRYCE, this is an analysation of how Bryce Tankthrust's means of obtaining expendable hearts changes in The Old Timeline to The New Timeline, and the implications that has on the existence of Elmer clones in the latter.

How are the Events of The Current Timeline Impacted by Bryce's Creation of Elmer Clones?

This theory is based around the reveal in the BRYCE series that Bryce Tankthrust still created Elmer clones in The New Timeline. It investigates when/how/why Stuff & Sam now occurs, and the overarching impact the events of BRYCE have alongside other pre-established events.

Does Blame the Hero Still Occur in The Current Timeline?

An investigation taking place entirely in the context of The Current Timeline about why certain events from BtH will not and can not take place in The Current Timeline. It accounts for a myriad of details and affirms what other related events originally from The Original Timeline do and don't still happen, in what capacity, and certain alternatives.

FOR THE FORGOTTEN ONES SPOILERS CHP 38

MAJOR SPOILERS DONT READ IF YOU HAVEN'T READ THE CHAPTER OR ELSE YOU'LL RUIN YOUR OWN EXPERIENCE

I AM NOT NORMAL RIGHT NOW.

CHAPTER 38

Literally when i thought Chapter 37 was the most heartbreaking chapter ever, Chapter 38 showed up. I'm not going to lie I cried like a baby while reading this chapter 😭

Let me break down everything that happened in Chapter 38

Ignited!Dream vs Corrupted!Nightmare

It was revealed that Ignited!Dream is burning himself to death. And that Ink would not be able to heal Nightmare and Dream the same way as the others

Dust, Horror is trapped inside this twisted nightmare while being controlled. Meanwhile CROSS is aware of EVERY action he's doing, while also being controlled.

COLOR DIED. And judging from the replies from Im_Sorry_Buddy on the comment section, Color is dead dead.

FUCK YOU XGASTER

The only good thing that happened here is that Geno (our angel, baby, favorite boi) helped Dusty.

So much has happened that my pea brain cannot handle everything. THE THINGS YOU DO TO ME FTFO.

Also I would like to bring light to this paragraph here:

THIS HERE IS A WORK OF ART. THIS SINGLEHANDEDLY EXPLAINS THE PAIN OF LOOSING COLOR. THE REALIZATION THAT WE'LL NEVER EXPERIENCE THE POSSIBLE FRIENDSHIP WILL FOREVER LEAVE ME IN SHAMBLES. 😭🖐️

Im still in the denial stage, I'm in this delusional mindset that in the end Ink will magically bring Color back to life.

Also ss of Buddy confirming that Color is dead dead.

[endlesstimelines13]

THIS REACTION IS SO RELATABLE LIKE 😭🖐️

"Killer’s fingers twitched, then slowly lay down on his knees, his palms facing upward as he stared at the dust on his gloves. He got to his feet. He did not cry. He did not grieve or rage or once again ask why. But for a moment, he mourned a friendship that never had the chance to be."

THIS PARAGRAPH GOT ME ON SHAMBLES. LIKE AAAA I IMMEDIATELY SEND LIKE 99+ MESSAGES TO MY FRIENDS AND ITS ALL JUST CRYING SOUNDS EXPRESSING MY SADNESS TO COLOR'S DEATH. AMPPP i dont want to live anymoreeee. Im so done

"He mourned a friendship that never had the chance to be" *walks out with tears running down my eyes* 🚶

[bluerosefox]

You know what.

ANOTHER DPxDC idea (as if I write prompts for anything else lol ✍(◔◡◔)

And once again, I think I might have a hyperfixation rn, another deaged Dani (Ellie) and Dan (Dante)! and Dad!Danny.

And you know what, lets make it another DannyxConner idea.

Danny is on a field trip with his class (NOT in Gotham though, LOVE Gotham but lets go with a different city) in like Central City or Metropolis (If Metropolis, Danny is SUPER excited to see the space sections they have at the museum they no doubt have, because well SUPERMAN is an alien and based in their city. If in Central City Conner is visiting Bart.)

During the trip he bumps into Conner and the two just hit it off. Conner enjoys listening to Danny rant about space and the stars and finds watching Danny's eyes light up in joy kinda cute. And if he got his new hero name Supernova from listening to Danny's rants about the stars well... no one needs to know how he got it.

Danny likes how chill Conner is and how the guy stood against Dash and the other jocks when Dash decided he wanted to mess with Danny during the trip, a rare thing nowadays but sometimes Dash does try, and how he respects/likes Danny's friends.

He didn't even say anything negative or hurtful when he found out Danny has two kids back home.

In the end the two exchange numbers, flirt hard, and maybe set up a date in the future. And then more dates. Becoming boyfriends. AND meeting the family. Conner is smitten with just out of toddlerhood Ellie and toddler Dante and adores them. And he loves how the Fentons just love him the moment he stepped into their house and was introduced as Danny's boyfriend, he made sure to bring over a pie Ma should him how to make.

Things get a bit complicated when Conner, Supernova, is at a reunion of YJ members and his phone lights up with a text message from Danny.

He's smiling with a goofy/soft look when he opens the text and see's its a picture of Danny holding a pouting toddler Dante and Ellie on his lap smiling with a notable gap in her teeth at the camera. The message he got was 'Ellie wanted you to know she finally lost her first baby tooth. Dan's been grumpier, I think he misses you.'

He is pulled out of his happy thoughts and musings when he hears Bart gasp hard and drop a bowl of snacks onto the floor. Conner turns to from the future Speedster and see's him about to have a panic attack.

Bart, Impulse, is having a freak out after catching a glimpse of the text picture Conner had gotten and being nosy wanted to know what got his friend to smile so smitten. He knew of Conner's current boyfriend and the kids Conner adores but haven't had time to be introduced to them or even see a pic.

He wasn't expecting to see the very MONSTER of his NIGHTMARES that basically destroyed the world in the FUTURE as a toddler pouting at a camera and surrounded by two smiling identical looking people either. People he never saw in the future or with HIM AND-

Oh.... OH!

Was that why he turned evil? Did something happen to his family?

[bloobydabloob]

You doing good dude

[huginsmemory]

Not the prettiest schematic but decided to put together the timeline for the pre-series events, for fanfic writers and other folks like me who were curious at what exactly was going on, since a lot of it is explained vaguely, even in journal 3 itself.

Comments below (additional added day after posting):

Schematic technical comments:

Time is not to scale

Red = events with unconfirmed dates within the last two (black) concrete dates given. Structured so that earlier events are listed earlier with a '-', going off the position within the journals (before/after other events)

The events that occur in 1983 all occur when it's clearly winter, so early in the year

F refers to Fiddleford, because it's easy and shorter.

Sources: Journal 3, Book of Bill and the GF fandom wiki timeline.

Length of time comments:

Ford is in GF for 8 years total (1975-1983).

Journal 3 begins after Ford has been there for six years, thus each Journal spans roughly 3 years.

Ford knows Bill for about 4 years (1979-1983) and 2 years of that (1981-1983) they work together closely

A date given for Ford's investigation into ghosts and the Northwests, something seemingly unimportant, I would theorize is likely due to that directly after the ghost investigations Ford is frustrated about his work, and Bill offers the portal schematics. This suggests sometime in the fall/winter of 1981 the portal is proposed.

The portal is worked on likely for just over a year (likely late 1981-january 1983)

Fiddleford only works on the portal for 6 months (August 1982-January 1983).

Directly after it is noted that Fiddleford is joining Ford and the pages on Fiddleford, is the visit to UFO and gremloblin event. This suggests that it is early in Fiddleford's stay that he makes and begins to use the memory gun. The entry about the memory gun occurs right before an entry on a carnival, which Ford chooses them to go to as a distraction for Fiddleford. The carnival includes mention of a human-Squash, suggesting potentially an early october time frame (at the carnival Fiddleford also speaks to the man who becomes Blind Ivan) . This suggests that perhaps the gremloblin event occurred early-mid September and memory gun event about a week or so after.

This means that Fiddleford for the majority of the time he works on the portal, for about 4 of the 6 months, is using the memory gun. And by the time he creates the Society of the Blind Eye, he's already been using it for about 5 months, and has potentially been keeping in touch with the man who becomes Blind Ivan during that time.

It's late into the building of the portal that Ford lets Bill possess him; considering it's after they visit the carnival, it suggests around October or later of 1982 that Ford lets Bill possess him, which is only at most 3.5 months of possession before the test.

It's suggested heavily that the night of the test Ford confronts Bill, which would mean as he witnesses the Society of the Blind Eye, that he's dealing with Bill's abuse for at least 4 weeks.
