What time?

[teinisydan.livejournal.com]

Hey! I'm sorry because I know this is illigal here because I'm not searching for a fic but I really need to know something.

I'm writing one fic and I need some information to it. Can somebody tell me what time of the year (month would be nice because I know we don't know the exact dates) these happened:

- B and J met
- J left his home and moved to Deb
- Prom
- J met Ian
- episode 308

FOUND: Thank you so much for the info! You guys were fast!

I know some people have been driving themselves nust over qaf timelines for years...but logically, I would say:

- B and J met - early in Justin's school year, late August, early September.

- J left his home and moved to Deb - I think by then it had to have been a couple of months after meeting Brian, I don't think there are any clues for that one. November?

- Prom - Prom is always held in late May or June

- J met Ian - When Brian cancels the Vermont trip in the next episode it's mentioned it's Spring Break, so Justin's birthday when he meets Ethan a short time before was probably in February or March.

- episode 308 - Probably early fall, sometime before the election in 314, which would have been in November, if it's a general election, which I think it was that year.

Hope that helps.

This question is better asked at the queerasfolkfans comm. Thanks!

Can't give you specific months, just "around this time" generalities.

- B and J met--late summer, Justin is in school already, so I'd say maybe late August, early September

- J left his home and moved to Deb--early fall, perhaps, maybe mid to late October

- Prom--I recently saw something that said Brian's birthday was May 21st, so the prom was within a day or two of Brian's birthday.

- J met Ian-- Supposedly, Justin is a Pisces, so maybe early March

- episode 308--since we tend to go with the assumption that elections are held in November, and 314 was the election eppie, I'd say early October, maybe.

Well, since there is no official time line in QaF, it is perfectly acceptable in the fandom to make up dates stuff happened. But I believe most writes just go by the type of weather that's happening outside during those scenes.

- B and J meet: Since the series started in September of 2000, and the weather looks about right, that's when most fans believe that they met. Justin is in school, so you could say either September or October.

- J left his home and moved to Deb: Again, since there doesn't seem to be any snow on the ground and when the boys are outside it still looks fall like, I believe this happened within a few weeks (maybe a month) after B/J met. So I'd say around October, maybe November.

- Prom: Most school's proms are in very late April or early May. And when you look at Brian's deathday cake in the last episode the year is 2001. So most fans believe the prom took place in May of 2001.

The last two: At this point dates are just made up. Look at the weather that's in those scenes. It looks fall or late winter. Anything to this point is pure speculation.

I hope this helps you out a bit, and I look forward to reading what you come up with! :)

I mostly agree with what the others said, but if you want to have a closer look, dhrachth did a really good timeline here: http://dhrachth.livejournal.com/8812.html; and I wrote one up, too: http://darla-isabelle.livejournal.com/1792.html. Have fun!
