Mr. Sturgeon: So, you lied to me?

Bruno: That depends on how you define lying.

Mr. Sturgeon: Well, I define it as not telling the truth. How do you define it?

Bruno: Um, reclining your body in a horizontal position?

Boots: *soft moan of despair*

this is canon. 🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️

[macdonaldhall]

sometimes i read bruno/boots fic and half-convince myself that there’s no possible way that b&b were really that obsessed with each other in canon and then i reread the joke’s on us/something fishy and:

they are, in fact, that obsessed with each other

[macdonaldhall]

The (Disputable) Macdonald Hall Timeline:

since the dawn of time, fans of this niche canadian book series have been plagued by Gordon Korman’s insistence on making the boys time at school timeless, and by proxy, providing no clear passage of time. at all.

wikipedia helpfully provides the only indication of age is “too young to shave” but technically, this isn’t true. in that same book (This Can’t Be Happening) Boots indeed recalls “his Grade 8 field trip” which would imply they are in grade 9.

this is literally impossible.

i was personally driven insane by this notion.

so, i decided to make an obviously entirely factual timeline for all 7 books in the franchise (and graduation for fun because they don’t mention it in book 7, which means it’s not their last year yet) based on comments made throughout the story.

the START dates for the books are all absolutely accurate, but the length is a little fishy (pardon the pun) because unfortunately they almost never confirm how long it’s been since the start of the book by the end.

the holiday dates are based off of the modern toronto school calendar as well as me asking people i know who went to school in canada in the early 80s so while they may not be EXACT, they’re as close as we’re gonna get.

so without further ado, bruno and boots antics now helpfully provided with dates:

feel free to send an ask if you want to see any of my evidence for the start of books that AREN’T right after summer or the length of certain stories cause i’d be happy to tell you!

and yes i did use apple calendar for this, i think it makes me look even more insane and that’s pretty funny

RECOUNT WE DEMAND A RECOUNT

[macdonaldhall]

rereading the books cause it's been a year and i wanted to do a relationship analysis on bruno & boots' developing dynamic over the years PLUS i got sick and tired of gordon's nonexistent timeline so i made my own! do you think the 4 total macdonald hall fans on this website would want them?

um hello oh my god YES

we may be small in number but we absolutely will devour whatever you put out
