The Cliff Notes to the Love and Lust Universe

Someone asked, very nicely, that I do a timeline to the L & Ls, since the stories got awfully complex. So here's the short version of events. You know, just in case you get confused. Not as much in story order as event order. Major spoilers ahead for every single thing.

This is a work in progress. As I remember and/or add things, they will show up here.
