Timeline of Earth

This is the timeline of Earth, and we're gonna show you the timeline:

4.5 Billion Years Ago

Earth had just formed, at this time its surface was covered in molten lava and is much smaller than how it is today. A planet named Theia then hits Earth shooting debris into space, forming the Moon.

4 Billion Years Ago

Earth has suffered heavy bombardment from asteroids, giving her some marks from the collision.

3.8 Billion Years Ago

A flood happens and Earth is now a water world, life begins and small islands now exist. First life on Earth.

3 Billion Years Ago

Ur, a supercontinent forms, this is one of the earliest supercontinents on Earth.

2.7 Billion Years Ago

The next supercontinent forms, named Kenorland.

1.5 Billion Years Ago

The next super continents forms, named Columbia.

700 Million Years Ago

Earth might have went through an ice age because of extreme global cooling, freezing Earth's surface.

650 Million Years Ago

The next supercontinent forms, named Pannotia, most of the land at this time was near the poles of Earth. The ice melts and animals evolve.

300 Million Years Ago

The next supercontinent forms, named Pangaea, most likely the most popular supercontinent Earth has ever had.

200 Million Years Ago

The supercontinent Pangaea start collapsing. The dinosaurs roam the Earth.

66 Million Years Ago

Thanks to Nemesis, an asteroid named Chicxulub hit Earth, wiping nearly all of her life and covering Earth in dark clouds for many years, due to this most of the life died due to low sunlight, Earth becomes brown.

Today

Earth now has "intelligent" life and is giving Earth some positives, but it's also destroying it in the process with global warming, light pollution, polluting its atmosphere, giving much space junk a spot to orbit her, and even more. This brings up a question if life was such a good idea or if it was a curse.

Future:

20 Million Years From Now

Another ice age might occur.

250 Million Years From Now

Pangaea Proxima has formed, being probably the last supercontinent. Every single continent turns into one landmass, with an ocean/a sea in the middle.

1 Billion Years From Now

Earth would probably heat up, turning her into a Venus-like hot desert.

5 Billion Years From Now

Earth would either be absorbed by the Sun, or turned into a lava world, like CoRot-7b. The Moon May be lost by now.

In September 2017, pettigrace stated writing it, as they have had a college AU in mind for a while but could not find a way to write it.

It is still being updated as of February 2021.

## Summary

In October 2017, Oliver Queen founded the LGBT+ club at Central City College. He invited several people into the groupchat, resulting in a core group fo 12 people.

The fanfiction is mostly told via chatlogs from this Groupchat, with the exception of a few special chapters showing a closer look into specific people's other chats and social media, and a part of the series written in prose that shows certain scenes only alluded to in chat (also named 'interludes').

Pettigrace

Pettigrace is the pen name of Yas, who is the author of quite a number of fanfictions. Most notably is their work on the We're All Somewhere In The Middle series.

They can be found on ao3, tumblr, twitter and instagram.

## About

In the long-gone year of 1997, Yas was born to add braincells to a family that is too chaotic to function. Seriously, if they drew you a map of how they're related to whom with explanations, it could take up a whole day. Maybe that is the reason why they like to preach that *everything is connected*.

At the moment, Yas is getting their master's degree in Comparative Literature, though they also have a Bachelor's in Religious Studies. They're interested in a lot things, like mythology, languages, comics and (queer) books. Many of these are referenced in the GCAU, as are funny stories from their life. If a character references something crazy that happened to them, it might just be based on Yas' life.

Their heart, though, beats for the Arrowverse. Specifically Barry Allen, but working on the series has given them a new appreciation for certain other characters. The foundation of that had been present already, though, so the creation of the GCAU in the Fall of 2017 has only been the peak. The story is still going strong in Early 2021, but will probably reach its conclusion this year.

When they're not making up batshit crazy stuff about thier favourite characters, Yas might be working on original stories. Probably not. Instead, they might be pretending to be productive, though they are utterly bad at that. What is permanent, however, is that they are waiting for Greg Berlanti to cast them as Conner Kent in the Arrowverse.

## Trivia

* During the course of writing this fic Yas has gotten and quit/been fired from multiple jobs, as well as gotten their Bachelor's degree and started their Master's in Comparative Literature.
* Yas has seen multiple Arrowverse actors in the flesh: Chad Rook, Osric Chau, Katie Cassidy, Wentworth Miller, Dominic Purcell, Danielle Panabaker, Tom Felton, Peter Facinelli and Manu Bennett, but only talked to Danielle and Osric.
* Their favourite Arrowverse characters are: Barry Allen, Mick Rory, Nia Nal, Zari Tomaz and John Diggle.
* Yas has only gotten interested in DC comics and its related content when Grant Gustin, whom they had fallen in love with when he was on Glee, was cast as Barry Allen. They binged Arrow in preparation and became obsessed - a happenstance they only regret, like, once a month.
* One of their most treasured belongings is a STAR Labs sweater. Another one is their "John Diggle = Best Husband" mug that a friend of theirs specifically made for them.
Lex Luthor

Lex Luthor is a politician living in Metropolis. He is the former CEO of LexCorp but stepped down from this position as he pursued the political field.

## Family

### Parents

Lionel Luthor (deceased)
Lilian Luthor

### Siblings

Lena Luthor
Julian Luthor (deceased)
Lucas Dunleavy (half-brother)

## Prior to the Series

Lex was born in Metropolis as the eldest son of Lionel and Lilian Luthor. He is the older brother of Lena and the late Julian Luthor, as well as the half-brother of Lucas Dunleavy.

At some point, Lex met Oliver Queen, Bruce Wayne, Ray Palmer and Tommy Merlyn as their parents were business partners and would put their sons together when they had meetings.

Lex attended a private Middle School together with Oliver and Tommy where they bullied him. It is unclear if he switched schools, however, this might be his reasoning for disliking Oliver.

After he finished High School, Lex spent some time in Smallville, working for his parents' company. Here he met and befriended Clark Kent, resulting in them becoming very close. It has been alluded to them having been in a relationship of some kind.

When Lex' father died, Lex took over as the CEO of LuthorCorp, renaming it into LexCorp. He ran the business for a few years before stepping down as he started campaigning as a politican.

## During the Series

### i just wanna have fun (and get rowdy)

Following Oliver's creation of the Queen Consolidated LGBT Foundation, Lex has created a similar one of his own. He claimed that it's been a "the more, the merrier" situation.

### worked too damn hard for this

In June 2018, Lex bought the rights to the Angel Warrior comic books.

## Trivia

* Lex' liking of Warrior Angel is a reference to the Smallville version of his character, as are his past relationships to Oliver Queen and Clark Kent.
* Nobody seems to like Lex and yet he's gaining more political power.
Dimensional Travel

## Summary

**Dimensional Travel** is the ability to move through alternate universes (or "dimensions"), crossing over across different planes of existence to reach other, far-off locations.

Jax Jackson

Jefferson Jackson, better known as Jax Jackson, is a student at ? High School. He is the boyfriend of Wally West and Jesse Wells.

## Early Life

At some point in his life, Jax has met Wally at School and become best friends with him. When Wally stated dating Jesse, he has grown closer to her as well, later on resulting in the three of them entering a polyamorous relationship.

Before the series, Jax has met Joe, Iris and Bar.

## During the Series

When Jax and Wally started inventing a new kind of patrol for cars, he first has encountered Hartley Rathaway.

At some point, Jax has encountered the members of the Groupchat.

When Lisa Snart started a new groupchat for the younger siblings and acquaintances of the Groupchat, Jax became a member of it. It is unclear whether he has known Thea, Roy and Sin beforehand.

Since Joe was unaware of Wally, Jesse and Jax all being in a relationship with one another, he has feared that Wally might neglect Jesse since he seemed to spend as much time with Jax as with her. Being fed up with this, Wally invited Jax over when Joe hosted a dinner to celebrate the one year anniversary of his arresting Snart and Mick and announced that he is his boyfriend as well.

## Trivia

* Jax seems to be a frequent guest at the Wests' house.
* He does not like Wally's writing styles in text messages.
* His interest in cars is a reference to his show's alter ego being a mechanic.

	4. Each person shall contribute 40$ per month into the househould budget. Should any amount be left over, it will be divided equally between everyone except Oliver and Tommy, who have asked to be kept from it.

	5. One shall keep out of the other inhabitants‘ rooms unless told otherwise.
	6. Each inhabitant is responsible for their own laundry.

	10. „STAY AWAY FROM MY CACTI!“ - Lisa Snart
	11. Should a guest trigger negative reactions in another inhabitant, the inviting inhabitant is requested to resume into their room, taking the guest in question with them.
* As Moira Queen has bought the house, she deems it necessary that there always is a Queen present. As such, Thea stays over when Oliver is gone for a longer timespan.
* The Wheel of Fortune that the residents use to determine chores has been invented by Ray Palmer.
* Moira does not approve of Oliver letting friends stay with him.
* The Quiver is wheelchair-accessible.

Patty spent her Christmas 2017 with Linda.

### in the middle of the night, in my dreams

Texting with Linda all the while, she was the one who did not only inform Eddie about Bruce Wayne's appearance, but also about him having a kid by his side. When Eddie and Bruce met, Patty spent most of the evening talking to Sara, who then promised that she and Eddie would bring her to the airport the next day.

For Valentine's Day 2018, Patty travelled to Central City to spend time with her girlfriend. She met the Groupchat people for a post-Valentine's brunch and got along with most, if not all, of them.

When Bar Allen visited National City in Spring 2018, Patty joined them and the National City Crew at Al's Dive Bar. She brought along her partner, Maggie, and introduced her to Alex Danvers.

## Relationships

Lois Lane (girlfriend)

### Friends

James Olsen (best friend)

## Prior to the Series

Clark has been born in an unknown, presumably European, country. For unknown reasons, he, as well as Kara, has had to migrate to the US where he was adopted by Jonathan and Martha Kent. He grew up on their farm and attended Smallville High together with Lana Lang, Chloe Sullivan and Pete Ross.

While living at home, Clark has dated Lex Luthor for an undetermined while. It appears that the relationship has not ended well.

At some point, Clark has begun working as a reporter for the cultural resort of the Daily Planet in Metropolis. He met James Olsen and Lois Lane here and has begun dating the latter after a while.

He met Bruce Wayne when he was asked to interview him. The two got along right away and have struck up a close friendship. Sometimes they take their dogs out to the park together.

## During the Series

### in the middle of the night, in my dreams

Clark worked on a story covering the opening night of Verdant in early April 2018. Bruce introduced him to Oliver Queen on the occasion and mentioned there being friends. It is also here that he met Linda Park, though it is possible that Kara has told him about her before. The two have exchanged numbers and become friends via texting.

### worked too damn hard for this

In June 2018 Clark asked Linda about how to tell his boss, Perry White, that he felt unfit to write an article about a certain person, given their personal relationship. He said that he has already asked Lois and Chloe about it, but felt their tips unhelpful. He did agree with Linda to just tell Perry that he couldn't write the piece. While it hasn't been stated explicitly, it would make sense if the article was supposed to cover Lex Luthor.

## Trivia

* Clark is viewed a stereotypical southerner. He uses a lot of abbreviations in his speech, which might root in English being his second language - he's learnt it from Kansas people!
* He has a dog named Krypto and meets up with Bruce to take their dogs on playdates.
