The Complex Harmonic Motion’s Complex Timeline
(I did this to the best of my abilities. I had to look through comment sections for anything Themossstomper may have mentioned and find specific detailed quotes from the Outsider series lol. )
LETS GET TO IT THEN *drum roll*
The Unwelcome Guest -begins November ‘06-‘07
-Tess was in that hospital ward for a couple months so we enter the year ‘07 during this story. The events of the OG happen in this game so that helps with the timeline.
The Stranger In Their Midst-‘07 -‘08
-In chapter 6 of SITM Tess asks Reno how long she’s been on Gaia and he answers “You showed up in November '06, I think. A year and eight months." To which Reno adds “"Gettin' close to two years then,”. Hence why I believe SITM ends as they approach the year ‘08
-the final arc begins sometime between July-August cause they’re celebrating Tess’ B-Day and her zodiac sign is a Leo. They celebrate it in Costa del Sol. She was taken captive for about two weeks.
-Tess just had one hell of a crappy start on Gaia which is why I was shocked all that hell she went through in SITM happened in a time span a little under a year.
Making Memories-‘08-‘09
-the brownie chapter (first chapter of Making Memories) Reno mentions it was a year ago Tess had her first coffee and chocolate. He remembered it to the day like the sweet heart he is aww. (Now remember she was by herself in that ward for some months before she stumbled upon Reno)
-At the end of SITM (ch.66- the epilogue, it’s autumn )they make things “official” for realsies this time (these two are a headache XD) . At the time of Reno’s Day, they have been in an official official dating relationship for about 5 months. Now remember the Reno’s Day (February) chapter takes place before Towards the Storm. It’s ‘09 now.
Towards the Storm-‘09
-It is during this time they have been dating for about 8 months( this story most likely takes place in the month of May). The end of TTS leads directly into Advent Children so this helps us prove TTS takes place in ‘09
-The Kalm Festival and Christmas chapter of Making Memories take place after TTS.
-The Kalm Festival chapter of Making Memories is celebrating their 1 year anniversary (It’s Autumn, September most likely) So after TTS and Kalm festival, they have been dating for 1 year and this means Tess has been on Gaia for about 3ish years now, like 2 years and some change.
