The BAD SH Timeline....Pt 1
As requested by nobody, save yours truly....
2016
March/April - Filming on the Plaiderdale pilot begins, Cole’s definitely interested and already fighting off a bunch of castmates....PP seemingly has limited socialization, but shit IS happening.
There are indications Cole might not have been the only dude she hooked up with in those 2 weeks.
April/May - Cole goes to Botswana and is back in NYC with his friends, when everybody’s in town for Upfronts, he decides he’s moving to LA (for PP), she’s seemingly still also involved with Sam, but Cole begins introducing her to his closest friends in LA throughout the summer....
August - It’s Cole’s bday, but PP’s decided to fuck off to NC to spiral miserably, even tho it appears she and Cole had grown much closer just before/during Comicon.
September - Everybody’s back in Van and PP is still slutting it up....Cole is now making mopey, shading posts, even....
October - PP mopes back to NC for a few days to sulk over her goddaughter/leash she’d eventually forget. Interestingly, we have the first of positive recorded interactions, SH seem to have gotten together at some point. This is probably when MUA Erin famously told PP to go for it.
Nov/Dec - Verrryyyy much apart for the holidays, tho Cole seems quite happy in his interactions and supportively likes PP’s NYE post. We also know they’ve become a thing throughout this....oh and Crotchi psychotically stalking Cole and PP doing next to nothing, oddly.
Also, despite her propensity to sidepiece peeps, already established she and KokeJ haaattteee each other.
2017
Jan - show premieres, floodgates open in fandumb
Feb/March - Cole’s having to do “bestie” bullshit with KokeJ, PP has a small role in a movie/visiting fam.....tho it seems like all’s well, in retrospect, some weird, public sulking from both on Twitter, might actually indicate a split of some sort.
Although they’re clearly together when they interview at a Con, PP seems to not be able to help herself and hits on other male cast mates, there and in Mexico.
April - Mexico! PP whines about a UTI (supposedly), flirts for the cameras with KokeJ (who, interestingly, is booted back to the USA, early!), picks a catfight with Assleigh, and while she DOES stay behind and do cultural stuff with Cole, afterwards, she appears bored by it and gets pissy with fans, cuz moar interested in Cole....
May/June(??) - Back in LA, does see lots of Cole, however.....when the cast attends Wizardcon in Philly, while not nearly as utterly obnoxious as KokeJ (this begins my full contempt for his ass), she’s still openly jealous of Cole’s line of fans, which she and Crotchi bitch about on camera. During the panel, I now suspect the “ribbing” she and Cole exchanged was a LOT less “good natured” than we thought at the time.....”dogs, cuz I’m whipped....” could indicate how manipulative PP already was.
In fact, it’s all enough for Cole that he ditches everybody when their flight’s delayed and goes to NYC for a week ALONE....which, again, something we all rationalized at the time, but in retrospect, indicates something was a LOT moar negative....it also indicates PP posted her first pic of the back of his head for his Bday that was taken there, as a sort of apology.
Everybody returns to Van, Cole and PP fly up separately, again, indicating all was probably not nearly so great as we thought. Though upon returning, the cast are out a lot and SH seem to get along well.
July/August - all seems, actually, quite great for the bulk of the summer, SH are very romantic at Comicon, we get snippets of them together at various parties and events, etc....ONLY indication of shit being amiss is actually Cole with a bit of payback when Crotchi either crashes or is invited along by PP for an afternoon.....and Cole puts up with her bullshit for once, utterly enraging PP, who is also noted for this by innumerable fans they encounter throughout.
Fake Tits begins filming/also stalking Cole, He shuts it down and, to her credit, while she’s an asshole, she does manage to take “no” for an answer.
Sept/Oct - Actually, all’s still progressing quite nicely (or seemingly so). Cole is endlessly romantic.....and then......Hart. And PP develops a big assed inappropriate “crush” on her sleazy new friend. Cole attempts to make the best of it, but it’s apparent there’s a LOT of problems headed into November.
Cole visits NYC to do press, in Duan’s vlog/interview, he again seems quite sad, I just thought it was him being mopey at the time, but likely they were again on the outs a bit/PP’s “friendship” was probably also worrisome....
Nov - Stinkbrosgiving and Cole seems beyond miserable....and NOT just because of KokeJ’s utter disgustingness. By the time he returns to filming, he looks, literally, ill in those episodes. PP even makes a point of meeting up with FB for lunch upon her return to NYC and seems to ostracize Cole.....TBFit seemed like they reconciled (”dancing in my seat” as the flight landed and being so late to taping.....but for all we know? That was about FB....doubtful, but there are definitely issues).
Dec - shit’s been patched up again headed into the holidays. PP seemingly is getting better at balancing, etc.....Cole takes her to Hawaii, where they do have a glorious time....Upon returning, he’s happy and supremely relaxed. She takes to spiraling all over again....(yes, this is now January)
And.....TBC.....Also feel free to add/LMK if I missed anything thus far!
