After Arthur becomes king.

One word: squirrels

That made me laugh way, way, way too hard.

Good point, but I’ll never stop trying 🙂

Well, Regina adopted him at 3 weeks old. So he’d have to be born 3 weeks BEFORE that. Doesn’t fix the timeline 🙁

Working on the timeline again today. I’ve got all of S4 documented, so it’s just a matter of condensing my spreadsheet into the site timeline.

Flashbacks are already completed for 418-422. Just a matter of getting the present events recorded now, though work will probably steal me away before I can finish with that this afternoon. (421-422 are almost all in present/alternate reality, so…)

Would be a good thing to ask on Twitter, I guess 🙂 I don’t think I’ll change it from matching Emma’s birthday on the timeline though without more solid evidence–does it just look like 8-15 or do we have real proof?

…I know my birth time (10:27 am) and it’s on all the birth certificates in my family (1950, 1951, 1982–Ohio, 1980–Tennessee, 1987–California). So while it might not be always known, Regina MIGHT know it in this case…though she probably wouldn’t have gotten the original birth certificate as it was a closed adoption. (How IS that handled anyway? I mean, you need a birth certificate to prove you’re alive for things like passports etc…)

Eddy said himself they don’t care to have the timeline perfect and don’t expect us to know what day of the week it is. And although the evidence really points to her birthday being October 22nd, with her first full day in Storybrooke (and the first full day of the Curse) being October 23rd, even Emma’s birthday is a question mark with some fans celebrating both days.

(Saturday, October 22nd, is a pretty sensible day for her to be on a date with Ryan before busting him…YES EDDY I KNOW WHAT DAY OF THE WEEK IT IS.)

It’s been my policy to put evidence from within the show itself first as I timeline, so I’ve taken both Emma’s statement that she was 18 when she gave birth in 104 and Henry’s statement that he’s 10 when he meets Emma to be true. The only way it maths out is if they share a birthday…which would be October 22nd (or 23rd if my reasoning is off by a day because Magic). Nobody has EVER said in the show that they do share a birthday, so this theory is not ridiculous…but that’s why I’ve set his birth at October 22nd, 2001 on the timeline.

That, incidentally, sets his conception in late January/early February 2001. (February 22nd would be 8 months before his birth in this scenario.) I’ve got Emma stealing the bug on the first of January, 2001 (which is my default date anyway when I know the year but nothing else, but still works here). That gives her and Neal a couple of months together, which, with the lifestyle they were living, would be pretty intense. It also sets it over a year after Emma leaves Ingrid, so she’s got a year to attain her more mature appearance at 17.

As for her age when she meets Ingrid and Lily (within about a year of each other, and around 1998/1999), she remembers its being 13, 14, when she tells Hook when they watch the home video. She would have been 14 in October 1997…so if she meets Lily in early October, 1998, before her birthday, the age of 14 works (and yes, that works with the American publishing date of Harry Potter, September 1, 1998…just barely…). Young Emma is therefore 15 when she lives with the Chore Wheel family and Ingrid shortly thereafter; she stays with Ingrid six months, but I’ve got her leaving before she’s 16.

I like it. I might shift the date to that, even if it doesn’t work well with his being ten on her 28th birthday and Emma being 18 when she gave birth, but…it’s a nice touch 🙂
