Day of Disappearance Timeline (Episode 1)

Author's note--Oh. Jesus. I give you permission to kill me. I am SO SO sorry it's taken me so freakin long to update. And I know this isn't a *real* chapter, but it is the last thing I needed to do before starting the new episode. I know I promised before to upload the DOD timeline, so here it is. This is what the timeline looks like after Episode 1, and we will be adding to it in Episode 2.

Now, in the REAL episode, the timeline is drawn horizontally with the information written at a diagonal above the line and the time/date below it. Since that particular format is hard to recreate on the computer, I gave you the horizontal line with times/dates. Then below, I added in what each of the "|" marks should be. I hope that makes sense.

Also keep in mind that while WE (and Harry and Draco) know a LOT more about what happened and all, this is what our beloved Muggles on the WOaT team know, based on the information given in the episode (not any of the deleted scenes, just the basic episode).

Oh, and I realized I made another mistake, which I will go back and correct as soon as I post this chapter. During the scene where Pansy called Blaise (EIGHT HOURS MISSING) (and then in Snape's Side) I estimated the time difference between New York City and England to be 6 hours, which is wrong. It is only 5 hours (sorry, I was counting from Oklahoma time...don't know why, but I only just now caught it)

So because it's 8pm in New York City when Pansy calls Blaise in England, it is only 1am in England, not 2am like I previously stated. That also means that the timestamp on Snape's Side will be changed to 1:30am, not 2:30am. My bad.

Edit: I'm finally fucking finished with the formatting. All of the entries should be spaced correctly, separated by dashes because when using HTML, the spaces aren't recognized for some reason. Stupid HTML. And for the times, I have alternated to put one time on the first line, then the next time on the second line, then back to the first line, etc etc. And I tried to "extend" the "|" for the second line ones, but alas, they don't quite match up, so use your imagination. Or sit back from your computer a bit and look at it from a slight distance, rather than up close.

But either way, I've come to a very important conclusion:

I hate this fucking timeline. Formatting this was a MAJOR pain in the ass.

If this is your first time reading the story, ignore this edit.

Chapter notes:

1. NA--No answer. Spaulding and Narcissa had already ditched the prepaid cell phone at this point, so whenever Snape tried to get ahold of them (after Blaise called him in a panic) he couldn't.


Author's note--I am very, very sorry for the long delay. Episode 2 will be starting shortly. *Every day that Graballz doesn't update, Draco considers going back to Pansy. Please, Graballz, THINK OF DRACO AND HARRY AND UPDATE OFTEN!* haha Okay, for those who didn't get it, there was a GREAT plug for reviews from a different story (that I quoted in Chapter 1 of "Chasing Cars") but I will requote it here just because it's so great.

My normal policy for reviewing still stands (if you want to) but I just HAVE to share this with you because it made me laugh for about half an hour straight.

Credit for this goes to Demitria Miriam, from her story Harry Potter & the Slytherin Rivals of Hogwarts Chapter 11:

Every time you neglect to review a story, Draco Malfoy goes straight. Please! Think of Draco’s reputation!

My response: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, WE CAN'T HAVE DRACO GOING STRAIGHT!!!!!!!! (Isn't that FUCKING AWESOME?)

So there's my own personal motivation to update more than I have been lately and just get on with the episode (Draco can't go straight!) haha Okay, on to reviews!

WeasleyWench--LMAO YESSS! Thank you so much! (HA! And your husband wonders why you read slash...*wink wink*)

KLS--YAY I'm so glad you liked! Thank you very much! And that reminds me of a different thing from WOaT, actually (holy phuck). In one of the "Spaulding" episodes (the real ones from the real WOaT) Spaulding makes a CD for Jack, only he titles it "Phor Jack" which is a play-on words from one of the other kids he kidnapped...anyway, yeah, the point of that was the "ph" substituting for the "f". *random* Anyway, thanks for your review!

EmeraldGrey--Thanks! lol No worries. I already sent you an email (like, a long time ago) so of course I'm not mad! Why would I be mad? Hell, I'm just grateful you guys are reading (and reviewing, of course!) And after this, I wouldn't be surprised if y'all stoned me! (as in, throwing stones at me...not the drugs...)

HPDMkawii--I know what you mean...it's starting to get into crunch time for me, and my stories are suffering for it. *sigh* Everyone always hates their first fics. It's a natural process. lol Well, I look back at my first fic and sort of cringe...and then add to it! (Go figure...) Thanks for the review!

thrnbrooke--The "chapter that's not really a chapter" but...the next episode is coming soon! Thanks for your review!

devilfancy--awwwww, thanks!

mariahs_fantasy--If I can inspire intense rambling (or ADD or *happy dancing*)...I'll take it! lmao Thanks! The only problem is that I still have to divide my time between stories, essays, and Sims2 Harry and Draco! (Plus all the normal stuff like eating, sleeping, cleaning, and calling my mommy every once in a while!)

EmeraldGrey--*GASP* You don't know what Sims 2 is??? *dies* Thanks for your wonderful review! You're welcome for the emails and all. (I do what I can) And it always makes me feel really good to hear that you guys are "seeing" it with me. And now hopefully we can get back to watching the new episode!

Sims 2 is a computer game where you are, essentially, God. You create a person (called a Sim) and then you move them into a house and take care of them (feeding, showering, going to the bathroom, etc etc). You can build them a house, get them a job, interact with other Sims, and that sort of thing. It's kind of hard to explain...but it's really fun and really addicting because you can basically make them do whatever you want.

So I created Harry and Draco. Which means that "Harry" has shaggy black hair, green eyes, black-framed glasses, and wears a burgundy sweater with jeans. (You know, Gryffindor red) Draco has blonde hair, grey eyes, pale skin, and wears a black leather jacket with a green undershirt. I tried really hard to make their faces "look" like Harry and Draco from the movies, but I'm so horrible at matching "real" faces to Sims. Plus, it's just REALLY hard to make ANY computer-generated Sim look like a "real" person (at least, in my hands anyway)

But I moved them in next door and have gotten them from "friends" to "best friends" to "crush" to "love" and they've spent the night cuddling in bed, and they've done the Woo Hoo! (the Sim version of sex...no you don't *actually* get to see it...if they're in bed, they jump under the covers and fireworks explode...or if they're in the hot tub, they go underwater and fireworks explode...still amusing, though)

Anyway....thanks for your review!


Night--Wow, you PLAY Silent Hill??? I watched a friend play it on XBox 360 (actually, I think it was Silent Hill either 2 or 4) but anyway, it FREAKED me the hell out. I saw the movie too...still freakin scary!

Thanks for your kind words! I was getting all mushy at some points while writing that scene, too. I'd much rather it be "warm and fuzzy" than out of character. *sigh* I THOUGHT it was going to be a new episode, and then I realized that I promised the timeline, so here it is!

SyXX--Hi! OH WOW! That is so cool about the song! Thanks for reviewing now (stay tuned for Episode 2! lol *shameless plug*) and wow, such high praise!!! Thank you!

hahahahahahahahha I know...I think I'm both pathetic AND crazy! And I was like "if I keep writing...Draco will never make it to Snape!" but it had to end at some point...but he's okay now! And he'll be even more okay after Harry gets ahold of Snape! (Or rather, I will be more okay after Harry gets ahold of Snape! lmao) Thanks for reviewing twice!

Harrys boxers--Eeeeeeee! Oh wow, cool! I'm so glad you liked it! Sex on the Sims 2 isn't *shown* and it's called the Woo Hoo (slightly disappointing) but it's still fun to make them "do it"! And you can also download a nude patch and dildos....and masturbation chairs.....*naughty thoughts* Speaking of...*goes off to find patches to make Harry and Draco on Sims 2 better* And...OH. My. Harry and Draco sandwich? I think I would seriously die from the hotness overload!

Ayla Rouge--YAY I'm glad you liked the scene! I don't know if I really have a favorite, per se...it depends on my mood, so I try to switch them around. But I DO like it when Harry takes control and all! *drools*

Sims 2: OMG Yours sounds SO much more realistic than mine!!!! (LMAO They meet...start off fighting...and then end up making out!) I didn't have the heart to make them hate each other at first...I just wanted them to jump straight into the making out and all! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH Yeah, it's a good thing I live alone or else my roommate or family would be VERY creeped out by the things that make me dance around the room or pump my arms and scream. (Actually, I called one of my friends internationally to tell her that Harry and Draco finally did the Woo Hoo...she TOTALLY didn't appreciate it as much as it deserves to be appreciated)

Again, I don't *think* I stated that their first time was at Grimmauld on New Year's Eve, so I think for that particular point, you might be thinking of a different story. However, if you DO find anywhere that I specifically state in one of my chapters about it, I'll be more than happy to look it up, since I don't like to contradict myself.

And awwww, thanks for your kind words! I hope you'll come back!

Until next time, all!
