The Last Firebender Bonus: Timeline

A while back I mentioned that I'd done an actual chart to plot out where the separate groups were in their arcs compared to each other. And now I'm at the point in the story where it's not going to spoil anything, I thought I'd share.

fic timeline

Times are approximate, & also include travelling to the next place (eg. the month between Gaoling & the Library covers both the time they spent recruiting Toph & also the time they spent chilling in the mountains while Aang learned earthbending & not literally being in the city that long). It's not meant to be some kind of super precise tracking of the characters' movements - just something I put together to keep things consistent, so I didn't get all the way to the reunion & realise that when I'd written out the main story arc with Zuko & co, I hadn't allowed enough time for the Gaang to do everything they needed to & then have to go through & change every instance where I'd referenced time in any way.

I’m also pretty sure it doesn’t line up with canon either, because while the show’s timeline is fairly vague, I’ve probably shaved off at least a month. But there’s only so long I can stretch Zuko’s arc out for so fuck it

Also I ain’t gonna apologise for my handwriting
