lessons learned

an organized timeline of events in the lessons learned universe, aka my interpretation of the new timeline created during the events of the bttf musical. this page is honestly just for me so i have something easy to reference when writing fanfics but maybe you'll find it entertaining too!

note that some of this information is solidly canonical, some of it is inspired by non-canon material like the cartoon, and a vast majority of it is me shoving my original ideas anywhere they can possibly fit.
