At first, I couldn't think of why the name sounded so familiar to me - but, after searching Google, it finally hit me!
Here's the timeline I have: 1967: Violet Baudelaire is born on February 15. 1968: The Quagmire triplets are born on June 20. 1969: Klaus Baudelaire is born on April 16. 1973: Violet invents the automatic rolling pin. 1977: A couple of flashback events mentioned in TAA would occur in this year. 1980: Sunny Baudelaire is born. 1981: The series of unfortunate events for the Baudelaires start. 1982: The series of unfortunate events for the Baudelaires end, and Beatrice Baudelaire is born.. 1983: The Baudelaires have their names cleared, and reunite with the Quagmires. They soon move to Hill Valley. 1987: The Baudelaires and Quagmires enter the BTTF Universe, and they later become separated from Beatrice. 1992: The Baudelaires and Quagmires reunite with Beatrice.

Great timeline! I did one for another fic I wrote, but really should do one for ASOUE. When I do, I'll post it in this section.
Another thing I have been wondering about is how Beatrice was separated from the Baudelaires. Hmm...

That sounds awesome! In my ficverse, Beatrice will probably be separated from the Baudelaires - shortly after returning from the BTTF Universe. Maybe the others end up moving away from Hill Valley for awhile, and that's why Beatrice can't find them at ten. They do reunite soon afer the events of The Beatrice Letters, though.

I look forward to reading about Beatrice in your fics. She's appeared in my fic, The Terrible Truth, as well Jenny's and my RPG, V.F.D. (The Very Formidable Date).

Thank you, Violet. *hugs* I got bored, so I decided to type up that timeline I was discussing with Quagmire44 earlier. Mine is a little different, but not too much. I just wanted to keep it consistant with the stories I've already written. Oh, and Faust is the daughter of Colette and Fernald, btw.

So what becomes of Colette in your ficverse? I thought it was sad what she, Hugo, and Kevin were put through - to be portayed as people to scorn and mock. It's really no wonder they've joined Count Olaf's troupe, as they're probably not used to people like Esme showing them kindness. Once they realize just how evil Count Olaf's troupe is, I'm sure they're really going to have some trust issues to deal with.
I mean, just think. You have everyone treating you like crap your whole life - and then the first person to show kindness to you turns out to have been using you. After that, it'd quite be hard for them to ever be able to trust another person.

Right now I'm in the process of coming up with an idea of how Colette and Fernald get together. That will probably be the plotline of my next ASOUE fanfic. So far, the only idea I really have is that Faust is an acrobat and is friends with Emma, Sunny, and Beatrice, even though she's younger. I also want to give her a younger brother, but haven't been able to come up with a name for him yet.

That sounds like a good idea! Wikipedia has her and the other carnival freaks listed as teenagers, but I think they're actually supposed to be older. Why do you suppose it seems like so many of the patrons were so anxious to see one of the freaks thrown to the lions?

Yeah, I always pictured Colette and Kevin being somewhere in their mid to late twenties, while Hugo I imagine would be in his late thirties/early forties.
