5281698
My aim is to do that within the next couple days.
There is one base timeline, from Cold to Sunset Tells Star Swirl to [CENSORED] Himself and on, that has a predetermined series of events. There are also side stories that branch off. For example, Study Date and Szechuan Sauce take place in a TwiDash branch that is separate from the events leading from Milkshake to TFW, where the canonical chain of events is that Twilight and Rainbow ended their relationship. Beach House begins a TwiShy branch. Stone begins a dead!Twilight branch. And Copper Sulfate begins a TwilightXSunsetXRatity branch. Each one still relies on all of the previous events in the series. What you see is just the basic outline that will be edited and linked to as time goes on and the series gets more fleshed out.
