So in our copious free time, lareinenoire and I have been working on chipping out a timeline for Shakespeare's history plays and how the chronology stacks up against the actual events. She is doing the first tetralogy and I'm doing the second, which was clever of me because the second tetralogy is a lot less work, seeing as how the Henry IV plays in particular

Hey this sounds really difficult but awesome. I've always wanted to compile a history of the world through fiction and than formate it into a timeline, but every time I start to think about organizing it my minds runs away in terror. I'll still do it someday because I've always learned more history by reading accurate (at least mostly) stories about a particular era than any other way.

That is awesome, if really really imposing.

The Shakespeare focus is because I'm running a Histories ficathon, and some people asked about it. I don't think it will be done in time (the deadline is a week from now), but it will be nice to have one around, anyway. Plus it shows us that Prince Hal is a Time Lord, which is cool. ;)

Hm. Interesting. Which Timelord?

I had not thought that far. ;)
