** ''Three—attacked by guards patrolling main pathway near dock, returned back to lower pools.''
** ''Four—attacked by guards patrolling main pathway near dock, returned back to lower pools.''
** ''Five—attacked by guards patrolling main pathway near dock, returned back to lower pools.''
** ''Six—attacked by guards patrolling main pathway near dock, returned back to lower pools.''
** ''Seven—cornered by guards patrolling south end of Waterfall, didn't even get close to goal of Snowdin, returned back to lower pools.''
** ''Eight—took alternate route to get around patrolling guards, spotted and chased by other guards, nowhere near Snowdin, returned to lower pools.''
** ''Nine—guards again. Nowhere near Snowdin. Back at lower pools.''
** ''Ten—made it as far as the old statue. Turns out it might be a memorial? Guards used arrows this time. (Integrity) hates rain, declared war on sky. Returned to lower pools.''
** ''Eleven—brought an umbrella this time. Accidentally fixed statue’s music box. Guards used arrows again. Returned to lower pools.''\\
''…(Integrity) liked the music box’s song, even though it made her sad.''
** ''Twelve—we took a break for a bit. Might do those more often if we don’t find a way out soon. (Integrity) is trying to teach me how to swing dance, emphasis on trying. We ended up trying out a new route to the bridge and boat from a back entrance to the lower pools, didn’t work. Guards caught us, back to spears this time. Returned to lower pools.''
** ''Thirteen—tried the back entrance again, didn’t work any more this time either. Spears again, returned to lower pools.''
** ''Fourteen—same as above. By now it’s rather established that no matter what guards we run into they recognize us instantly, even if (Integrity) is wearing the cloak. Descriptions of us must have been passed out to all the troops. Maybe if we try different clothes altogether?''
** ''Fifteen—nope.''
** ''Sixteen—we tried a new route climbing across ledges and waterfalls in order to pass over the guards’ heads. They spotted us and shot arrows. One hit (Integrity) and she fell. I watched her hit the ground. Not trying that anymore, no matter what she says. I never want to see anything like that again.''
** ''Seventeen—tried waiting a few hours and then going down the original route we were trying in the first place. Didn’t do any good.''
** ''Eighteen—waited till nightfall this time. We made it a bit further, but they spotted us eventually.''\\
''…(Integrity) has informed me sea tea tastes nothing like actual tea, I’ll have to tell Gerson.''
** ''Nineteen—switched it up and tried the longer walk back to Snowdin this time. Didn’t even make it to the statue. Guards with arrows are quickly become my least favorite.''
** ''Twenty—tried that route again at night. No luck. This is starting to feel like we’re beating our heads against a wall without getting anywhere.''
** ''Twenty-one—wasn’t even the guards this time. We were walking, (Integrity) slipped, hit her head, fell into the river. I jumped in after her, but I couldn’t get her up in time. I watched her drown. It was…well, everything I said about getting used to this? I’m not. That was terrifying, not being able to help her.''
** ''Twenty-two—bridge route, again. We’re getting across less distance each time. I’m worried the guards are starting to get kind of…impressions about where we’ll be, like that small fish monster. How long can we keep this up?''
** ''Twenty-three—Snowdin route this time. I was right, the guards seem to be finding us faster and faster each run. That isn’t a good sign.''
** ''Twenty-four—we waited a few hours before going, and barely made it out of the lower pools this time. This definitely isn’t a coincidence anymore. They may not remember, but their subconscious is pointing them in the right direction.''\\
''Side-note: Next time (Integrity) asks to have her hair braided, wear mittens. Hair strands caught between bone joints is an unpleasant experience for both parties involved.''
** ''Twenty-five—tried that back entrance out of the lower pools that we've tried a couple times before. I thought that maybe since we’d used that less often there’d be less guards hanging around. We made it a bit further. Maybe that’s the way to go from now on. If we get far enough, I know a round-about path that’ll bring us near the Hotland bridge.''
** ''Twenty-six—we’re running out of ideas. This long route using the back path looked the most promising, but we’re getting caught faster and faster each time. I’m starting to think there may only be one option left.''
** ''Twenty-seven—we’ve talked it over and decided. Neither of us are keen on this, it really is a final resort…but we haven’t got anything else with even a chance of working.''\\
''…I just hope I can manage it.''\\
''It has to work. It has to.''

** 1 - Integrity leaves the ruins and meets Sans. He brings her to Grillby's; they're discovered by guards. They run away and slip on the ice on the border of Snowdin, where Integrity's killed by the guards.

** 2 - Integrity and Sans respawn at the Ruins door, where Sans is the only one who remembers her. They meet Grillby at his house, where he gives her a cloak to disguise her humanity, and she gives him a charm as thanks. Sans and Integrity pick up Papyrus from Gerson, who immediately recognizes Integrity as a human, but doesn't do anything about it. Integrity gives Papyrus a pink rock, and Sans sends him to stay with Grillby. Sans and Integrity go to barter with the Temmies. Sans uses his emergency supply of tradeable items to get some basic information. Integrity trades some things from her backpack for relevant news and a winter coat for Papyrus. Integrity makes a new save point here. Sans and Integrity are discovered by a guard on their way to Hotland, whom Integrity tells she's Sans's sister. Integrity's cloak comes undone, and when they run from the guards, they're killed by a cave-in.

This is an attempt to pin exact numbers on the events of Not as Simple, and is not anything close to exact. All measurements are imprecise, but the most uncertain ones are marked * as such and explained. In Not as Simple, (by WordOfGod) Chara fell in 201X. For the sake of ease, here they're marked as having fallen in 2015.

[[AC: ~2002]]

* Chara dies. Asriel (~11-12) absorbs their soul and crosses the border, supposedly to bring them to their favorite flowers on the Surface. (Having played Undertale, we know this is really a plan to collect six human souls.) Asriel is attacked by humans and refuses to fight. He makes it back to the throne room and dies. Asgore declares war on humanity. Toriel does not condone this.

* Integrity

[[AC: ~2138]]

* Integrity jumps into the Underground.

[[AC: ~2015, later]]

[[AC: ~2018, a few months later]]
* Bravery sneaks out to buy Toriel a birthday cake, and is found in Snowdin. Asgore kills him. Gaster is present. Gaster is horrified, but he’s young (“barely even close to being considered an adult”) and close to Asgore, and tells himself it’s for the good of Monsterkind and he’ll understand better when he’s older.

[[AC: ~2098, a few months later]]
* An old assistant becomes suspicious of Gaster and goes to Asgore. Asgore doesn’t believe him, but visits Gaster with a set of guards to provide reassurance. Asgore and the guards discover Perseverance eating lunch. Gaster tries to defend her, and absolute chaos breaks out. Someone accidentally starts a fire. Perseverance is fatally hurt and Asgore finishes her off. Gaster is devastated and completely hates Asgore. Strato Cumulus is present.

* Integrity and Sans are born (a few months apart or so.)

* Integrity takes shelter from the rain under the awning of a dance studio, and is invited inside.

[[AC: ~2136]]
* Sans and Papyrus wash up in Waterfall

[[AC: Just prior to Kindness]]

''([=*=] Perseverance is marked as having fallen “some time” after Kindness.)''

[[AC: ~2098*]]

* Integrity and Sans are born (presumably not on the same day.)

* Chara (~12-13) falls, and is taken in by the Dreemurrs.

* Bravery (~8) falls, and Toriel disappears to raise him in the Ruins.

* Kindness (~14) is captured because he stops fleeing to help a monster. When they bring him to Asgore, he appeals to Asgore’s sense of ethics; Asgore hesitates but kills him. Gaster is present and doesn’t know what to think.

[[AC: ~2098*]]

* After months of rumors, Gaster discovers Perseverance (~13) in his lab. She tells him she’s met him once before, in a prior timeline, and asks him to help her. She and Gaster study the timelines, and become very close.

* Integrity (12) jumps into the Underground.
