1 |
"A Christmas Carol: JABB Style" |
1998- Dec. |
http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb11.html | Bummed out by Carl in "An Angel on My Roof,"
Andrew is visited by three friends on Christmas.
Glancing at it, I don't see anything totally ridiculous
but since it's not been referenced since, I'm going to say
noncanonical. |
2 |
"The Guest Stars Revenge" | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb26.html | Sam, Rafael, and Celeste take over TBAA. I'm almost positive this was an Audrey story. | |
3 |
"A Fairy Tale" |
1999-Aug. |
http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb28.html | Princesses Audrey and JenniAnn are kidnapped
by Kiwi and somehow Xena is involved. Nope.
Not canonical. |
4 | “The Night Before Halloween: Andrew Style!" | 1999- Oct. 31 | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb32.html | Audrey wrote a lil ditty about no one particularly caring about Andrew's anti-Halloween stance. |
5 |
"The Journey" |
http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb35.html | Another one written by Audrey. It's
sorta a bizarro version of Dyeland at Christmas. |
|
6 |
"The Conclusion of The Journey" |
http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb36.html | See above |
|
7 |
"A Wedding Story" |
2000- Feb. 13 |
http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb39.html | Chiwawa and Chimama get married. And I
think that's all you need to know to see this isn't canon! |
8 |
"A Midspring Night's Dream" |
2000-April |
http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb43.html | I have no one but myself to blame for this
one! JennIAnn and Audrey go for a walk... with
John/George and V. Kiwi runs amok. |
9 |
"Second Anniversary" |
2000- July 19 |
http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb49.html | JenniAnn's excited for the anniversary party
at Willowveil. That's normal enough. John and
Victor are not... I didn't even reread this
one. Cringing... |
10 | “Halloween in Dyeland” | 2000-Oct. 31 | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb55.html | Dyeland's 2000 Halloween party. Definitely NOT canon. While I'm sure they had a Halloween celebration in 2000… this was not it. |
11 | “President Andrew” | 2000-Nov. | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb56.html | While Andrew *was* president… this isn't how it went down for real. |
12 | “JABB’s It’s a Wonderful Life” | 2000-Dec. | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb58.html | While there are a few cute moments, this isn't canon. Chiwawa is in it. The whole deal with Kathleen doesn't really fit and just in general it's "off." "Another Christmas" tells about the real Dyeland 2000 Christmas. |
13 | “The Brightest Angel” | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb59.html | Audrey wrote this and it's very sweet but independent of Dyeland. | |
14 | “Vincent Comes to Dyeland” | 2001-Feb. | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb63.html | Ack! John/George is in this one. But how Vincent came to Dyeland and why is canonical. Actually, no, I wouldn't even fully commit to Vincent being accurate here. Not canon. |
15 |
“Andrew Gets Put on Trial for Murder” | 2001-May | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb68.html | Freaking George again. My first attempt at an Andrew on trial story but it's all a dream. There's a canonical one below. |
16 |
“Ghosts” | 2001-Aug. | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb74.html | Completely dropped story line. With more of George... But I do like that Andrew narrated. I should try that legitimately sometime. |
17 |
The Missing Scene from 'The Pact' | 1997? | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb75.html |
Yvette wrote an additional scene for the TBAA
episode "The Pact." |
18 |
“Ghost Stories” | 2001-Oct. | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb78.html | Andrew’s a jerk in this one. I have no idea what we were thinking... or what I was. I can’t remember if Audrey co-wrote this one or not. Totally weird that there’s no intro. |
19 | “Triple S” | 2001-Nov. | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb80.html | Ridiculous. But I do remember thinking it was fun to write. Basically princesses Audrey and JenniAnn are turned back into children leaving Andrew to cope with their change. |
20 | “Another Holiday Story” | 2001-Dec. | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb82.html | So weird that I didn’t even title things… This could easily be canonical. The only major issue is John's presence but that was actually explained back when we'd do Dyeland stuff on the YG. What happened was Cliff the Magician (a native Dyelander and empty-nester) was thrilled when new people started settling in Asteri (Dyeland's actual name). However, he got worried that they would leave so hired a ringer named George to essentially play John Dye to keep the girls interested and present. So any time "John" is in Dyeland, it's actually George. At some point they assured Cliff that they'd always be around so George went back to his own life. |
21 | “The Violin Lesson Missing Scene” | 1996-Dec. | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb85.html | I would accept this as canonical in the sense that there's nothing problematic about it but really it has nothing to do with Dyeland. |
22 | "Bunny Meets Andrew" |
http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb85.html | To be honest, I'm not sure if this is supposed
to be set in Dyeland or not. Karen, who created
Bunny, has since gone Home so I just wanted to add it in
memory of her. |
|
23 | “Middle Earth Comes to Dyeland” | 2002-Feb. | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb86.html | Ha... Wow… A non-canon crossover with the "Lord of the Rings" characters. |
24 |
“The Sleepover” | 2002-Mar. | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb87.html | The girls perform makeovers on Andrew and George/John. I'm gonna say non-canonical just cause there's really nothing in here that adds to the narrative and between Kiwi and George it's just weird. |
25 |
“The Non-History of Dyeland" | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb100.html |
I have no memory of writing this and am kinda
bummed out it's the 100th newsletter! This is no
where close to the real history of Dyeland. Gosh, I
was weird. |
|
26 |
“Another Halloween in Dyeland” | 2002-Oct. 31 | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb101.html | Halloween 2002. It's cute and short. And canon! Andrew saves the night when the Dyelanders scare themselves silly with ghost stories. |
27 |
“Another Christmas” | 2002-Dec. | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb104.html | LJA is all sorts of stupid but it could pass as canon. She, Andrew, and Audrey recall their favorite holiday memories. Andrew tells of Christmas 2000 in Dyeland which bears no resemblance to "JABB's It's a Wonderful Life" so that one is definitely NOT canonical. |
28 |
“Andrew’s Blind Date” | 2002-Feb. 14 | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb107.html | Princesses Audrey and JenniAnn set Andrew up on a date for their own purposes. It's goofy but kinda cute and not completely off-the-wall so canon it is. |
29 |
“The Walk” | 2003-Mar. | http://www.miscjabb.onthisside.net/authorcut6.html#walk | Mostly set immediately after “I Will Walk with You Part 2." Andrew appears in Dyeland after bidding good bye to Monica. Joshua envisions a future test Andrew will face. Though it appears early on this list, I wrote it around 2011 so well after canon was established. |
30 |
“Farewell to TBAA” | 2003-Apr. 27 | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb110.html | Not canonical but if memory serves, I do think I like this one. It might be hard to read now, though, so I’m not. The Dyelanders watch the final TBAA and Andrew thinks back on how it all began. |
31 |
“A Gathering of Andrews” | 2003-June | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb114.html | Not canonical but another one I don’t hate. The Andrews of each TBAA season… and one more… gather to discuss their future. |
32 |
“Andrew V. Teddy” | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb115.html | Audrey wrote it and I still think it’s adorable but independent of Dyeland. | |
33 |
“The Anniversary All But One Forgot” | 2003-July | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb116.html | Not canonical. I thought maybe it was but re-reading it… the characterizations are just waaaay too off. Basically, everyone forgets JABB's anniversary except Andrew. |
34 |
“Movie Night in Dyeland” | 2003-Aug. | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb118.html | I’m undecided. With any contest story, things are gonna be a little off cause I had to force lines. But Theo kinda throws me, too. I would say something like this happened to Andrew but not exactly and Theo was actually Joshua. Plot-wise, I think it seems legitimate so I'll go with canonical. |
35 |
“The Reaper” | 2003-Oct. | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb123.html | I now realize at one point Andrew had a horse named Trinity and somehow I ended up using Starbuck. Oops. I think someone else chose Trinity and I was never really fond of it. In any case, a reaper shows up in Dyeland... or so it seems. The Dyelanders rethink their Halloween party in light of Andrew's feelings. |
36 |
“JABB’s A Christmas Carol”-1 | 2003-Dec. 24 | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb126.html | Way too dark for canon. A discouraged Andrew is visited by the Angels of Christmases Past and Present. Correction: It's canon. But Andrew's visitations really were a dream. Monica and Tess did NOT actually appear to him like that. He dreamed the whole thing. |
37 |
“JABB’s A Christmas Carol”-2 | 2003-Dec. 24 | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb127.html | The Angel of Christmas Future visits Andrew… and that's why I initially thought it wasn’t canon but now I see I left myself a loophole with it all being a dream sequence. This does accurately portray how Andrew got his new pocket watch. |
38 |
“Happy Birthday, Andrew!” | 2004- Sept. 20 | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb146.html | Andrew's birthday 2004. His friends throw him a lovely down home BBQ and potluck. |
39 |
“Halloween Comes to Dyeland” | 2004-Oct. | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb149.html | Andrew finds out that, out of respect for him, JenniAnn has hidden away her beloved Halloween décor. |
40 |
“Christmas Memories” | 2004-Dec. | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb153.html | It's Christmas 2004 in Dyeland and Andrew and a small group of his friends share their favorite Christmas memories. |
41 |
“Watching the HOTB Trailer” | 2005-Jan. | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb154.html | Yeah, something like that probably happened. In script form, though, so not really a story. Andrew, JenniAnn, and Jess share their thoughts as they watch the first cut of the trailer for John's film. |
42 |
“St. Patrick’s Day in Dyeland” | 2005-Mar. f/b-2000-Mar. 17 | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb159.html | Totally canon. JenniAnn thinks back on Andrew's arrival in Dyeland on St. Patrick's Day 2000. |
43 |
“Nor Iron Bars a Cage” | 2005-May | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb163opt1.html | The actual Andrew on trial for murder story. While there may be some throwbacks, I think from here on out I tried to legitimize everything so starting here everything is canonical unless otherwise noted. Plot: Andrew is mistakenly believed to have murdered his assignment. His Dyelander friends show up to support him during his trial. |
44 |
“Andrew and JenniAnn Talk About HOTB” | 2005-June | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/hotbconvo.html | Script-form but legitimate. JenniAnn is freaked out about Manion's betrayal of his wife so Andrew gives her an object lesson on trust and living life to the fullest. |
45 |
“Name That Movie” | 2005-July | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb167.html | It’s all a dream sequence so pretty inconsequential and adds absolutely nothing to the plot. Chiwawa is NOT canonical. |
46 |
“A Walk in the Woods” | 2005-Aug | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb169.html | Makes me sad. Andrew and JenniAnn go for a walk after she decides she needs a break from Dyeland (and him). |
47 |
“Trading Spaces” | 2003 | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb171.html | I’m thinking this is a throwback and non-canonical. They wouldn’t bring people, like Trading Spaces designers, into Dyeland like that. |
48 |
“DyeLight Zone” | 2005 | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb174.html | Audrey's farewell story when she resigned. |
49 |
“The Living Legacy” | http://www.onthisside.net/cabb2.html | Yvette’s tribute story following Charles Rocket’s death. It exists independent of Dyeland. Straight TBAA fanfic. | |
50 |
“Dyeland’s October Fun Festival” | 2005-Oct. 31 | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb177contest.html | This says Kathleen was “newly reformed” as of October 2005. Andrew organizes the annual Halloween, etc. party since JenniAnn is still away. She returns mid-party. |
51 |
“Untitled Christmas Story” | 2005-Dec. | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb181.html | Christmas 2005. Gregory also reformed… enough to be the angel in Tess' Christmas pageant. But my favorite part is still the RENT homage. Viva la vie 'Angel' fan! This really has no plot and is more of a series of vignettes. |
52 |
“How I Rang in 2006” | 2006-Jan. 1 | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb182opt1.html | Ah turns out Andrew did narrate again. V for vodka, indeed… Andrew's tipsy Dyelander friends visit him on New Year's Eve. |
53 |
“Ten Years Since TOTGA” | 2006-Jan. 6 | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb182opt2.html | On the 10th anniversary of TOTGA's first airing, the Dyelanders locate the train Andrew and Co. were on for that actual assignment and throw Andrew a party on it. |
54 |
“Go Ask Andrew aka When Fanfic Attacks” | 2006-Jan. | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb183.html | Andrew is put-off by some TBAA fanfic. Adam is amused. JenniAnn freaks out. Jess O. writes her own fanfic. I didn't intend it as such but this seems a bit like a prequel to "Man of No Reputation." I just wish I'd abandoned script-form earlier. |
55 |
“The Uninvited Guest” | 2006- Feb. | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb185sweet.html | I should re-read this as I remember next to nothing beyond Andrew pulling a “Say Anything.” A former Dyelander is getting married but her fiance refuses to allow Andrew to attend. |
56 |
“April Fools Day” | 2006- Apr. 1 | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb188.html | I'd say it's canon. It initially seemed a lil out of character for the angels to help prank Margherita but given the backstory of her continuously pranking them, I think they might do this all in good fun. |
57 |
“For Thou Art With Me” | 2006-June, f/b-1651 | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb194.html | The witch trial story. Eben’s backstory, too. A production of "The Crucible" in Dyeland prompts Andrew to think back to 1651 when he, a caseworker, was sent to Shiloh, MA where accusations of witchcraft were about to break out. His assignment is a young woman named Hope who finds herself accused. |
58 |
“The AOD Band” | 2006-June | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb195.html | Script-form. Huh, Adam taught King David to play the harp. He, Henry, and Andrew are interviewed by JenniAnn about the AOD Band's origins and history. |
59 |
“On a Dark and Stormy Night” | 2006- July 19 | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb197anni.html | So that’s where the Civil War re-enactor vignette is... Kiwi is in this and she was a pre-canon character largely but I think her part in this is cartoonish but not completely unreasonable so I’d say canon despite Legolas, too. Maybe 90% canon? Anyhow, Kiwi crashes the Dyelanders' 8th JABB anniversary party which was already derailed by a storm. Seems to be the first time people took to the tunnels connecting Andrew's and LJA's homes. |
60 |
“Object A and Co. in the Fields of Gold” | 2006- Sept. | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb201fields.html | Andrew's birthday 2006. The Dyelanders mistakenly believe Andrew is going away. So they do what any normal person would do… decide to tackle him. |
61 |
“Halloween Night 2006” | 2006- Oct. 31 | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb204halloween.html | The Dyelanders decide to try and give death a good reputation one Halloween night. |
62 |
“Watching ‘The Journalist’ with Andrew” | 2006-Dec. | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb206.html | Script-form. Not sure why we used to use that so much. I guess it was easier with co-written stuff as this was. Andrew, LJA, Jess, and Lady Beth watch the TBAA episode together. |
63 |
“A Second Chance Christmas” | 2006-Dec. | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb208.html | Aww. I think my annual “It’s a Wonderful Life” homage tradition started here. Andrew hosts a Christmas party and celebrates the second chance he'd been given with his friends. |
64 |
“How Vincent Met Psyche” | 2007-Mar., f/b 1984 | http://www.miscjabb.onthisside.net/authorcut3.html#vinpsy | Andrew barely shows in it but it is canon. Title pretty well says it all. |
65 |
“Under New Management” | 2007-Apr. 1 | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb216.html | April Fool’s joke all the way so not canon. |
66 |
“An Interview with Adam” | 2007-May | http://www.onthisside.net/cabb/cabb5.html | Yvette wrote this. Her character, Yva, interviews Adam about his AOD job and life in Dyeland. |
67 |
“Andrew-Free JABB” | 2007-May | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb220.html | Not really a story though it has a plot and Dyeland references but I’m gonna say this is JGA and not canon. |
68 |
“Measuring a Life” | 2007-June | http://www.miscjabb.onthisside.net/authorcut3.html#measurelife | More Vincent than Andrew but still canon. I think this is one of my darker things given it involves two major character deaths. Vincent dreams of how his life may have been had he been born looking like a normal man. |
69 |
“De-Spamming with Andrew” | 2007-July | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb223.html | This is one of the stories I thought back on when Rose told Max about how Andrew and LJA do the chores no one else wants to. Exhibit A... I want a cruller. |
70 |
“Anniversary” | 2007-July 19, f/b- 2006-May, 2004-Oct., 2006-Dec., 1987-May, 2006-Oct., 1965-Apr., 2007-Apr. | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb224dyeland.html | It's JABB's 9th anniversary and Andrew is absent as preparations for the party begin. His friends think back on treasured memories of him. LJA remembers when he tried to teach her to drive. Vincent recalls Andrew comforting him when a young girl died. Yva thinks back on reconciling with Andrew after his breakdown. Nigel recalls that same time period and the tour of Dyeland Andrew gave him. Henry recalls an assignment he worked with Andrew at a children's hospital. Lady Beth recalls time Andrew spent with her following her amnesia. Adam remembers a Vietnam era assignment with Andrew. Rose thinks back on the first time she met Andrew. |
71 |
“The JABBies” | 2007-Oct. | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb229.html | Oh. I forgot that at one point there was some back and forth with other worlds. Dropped that element. Probly a good thing. Still, it was canon for a time so I guess this story in which a committee from other worlds "honor" the Dyelanders is canon. |
72 |
“Adam’s Birthday Surprise” | 2007- Oct. 10 | http://www.onthisside.net/cabb/cabb7.html | By Yvette. The Dyelanders gather to throw Adam a surprise birthday party. |
73 |
“Halloween’s Sweet Surprises” | 2007-Oct. 31 | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb231.html | Also by Yvette. The Dyelanders celebrate Halloween at Willy's factory shortly after it opens. |
74 |
“Interview with an AOD” | 2007-Oct. | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb231.html | Andrew and LJA conversation that seems to be in character and legit. They discuss why he doesn't like Halloween. This is during the LJA/Eliot period but before it got bad with her and Andrew. |
75 |
“Dream” | 2007-Dec., f/b-1920s | http://www.miscjabb.onthisside.net/authorcut4.html#dream | Canonical account of Mick’s arrival in Dyeland. |
76 |
“Tidings of Comfort and Joy” | 2007-Dec., f/b-Dec. 18-24 | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb235.html | The AODs go to work at a toy store run by a grouch. Nigel awaits a visit from God. JenniAnn and Eliot move forward. Catherine and Vincent follow a very special star. |
77 |
“Great Spirit” | 2007-Dec. | http://www.miscjabb.onthisside.net/authorcut4.html#greatspirit | Deals with Charles Rocket’s death. Adam tries to console JenniAnn when she gets distressing emails about it. |
78 |
“Unconditionally” | 2008-Jan. | http://www.onthisside.net/jabbmem/unconditionally.html | This was alluded to in “Abide.” It’s the Westboro Baptist Church counter-attack story. JenniAnn and Mick try to get Andrew away from a hate group. |
79 |
“The Masquerade Ball and Other Events” | 2008-Feb. | http://www.miscjabb.onthisside.net/authorcut4.html#masquerade | Also by Yvette. After wreaking all sorts of havoc in Dyeland and the Tunnels, Andi's story is revealed. |
80 |
“God Only Knows” | 2008-Feb. 10-14 | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb239.html | First Valentine’s interview story, a now defunct tradition. JenniAnn interviews Dyelanders and friends about types of love. Mick has a heart to heart with her about Andrew. |
81 |
“3 AM” | 2008-Mar. | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb241.html | Wow... The 2008 election seems like ages ago. The funny thing is this started as a parody of a political ad but then I actually went serious with the “red phone” as it pops up in at least a couple other stories, “Abide” included. Anyhow, I'll say it's canon though perhaps played up a bit. I've no doubt LJA sometimes caffeine-drunk dials Andrew. |
82 |
“Eight Years Later” | 2008-Mar. 17 | http://www.miscjabb.onthisside.net/sp08.html | Eight years after Andrew first met the Dyelanders, he and JenniAnn recall the first evening they shared. |
83 |
“Fun at Willowveil” aka “Roses and Thorns” | 2008-Mar. 29 | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb243.html | Andrew discovers that everything he knows of Dyeland, including the love of his friends, is a lie. Or is it? |
84 |
“Dark Night of the Soul” | 2002-Sept. | http://www.miscjabb.onthisside.net/authorcut4.html#darknight | Occurs during “Two Sides to Every Angel." Andrew goes to Dyeland where he tells JenniAnn about his heartbreaking assignment. |
85 |
“When Tabloid Journalism Attacks!” | 2008-May 31 | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb247.html | Someone sets up a tabloid web site about the Dyelanders. Andrew is bothered when it's discovered the culprit is someone he knows. Logan's first appearance! |
86 |
“Man of No Reputation” | 2008-June | http://www.miscjabb.onthisside.net/authorcut4.html#man | Joshua! Andrew is bothered by "shipper" stories popping up all over. Joshua shows up to offer counsel and share a little about his own experiences. |
87 |
“Make This Go On Forever” | 2008-Aug. 2-23, f/f-??? | http://www.miscjabb.onthisside.net/authorcut4.html#makethis | Mick's best friend, Josef, believes Andrew is responsible for a tragedy that befell Sarah, Josef's beloved. Andrew tries to get Josef to see the truth and make peace with Sarah's impending death. |
88 |
“Benediction” | 2008-Oct. | http://www.miscjabb.onthisside.net/authorcut4.html#benediction | Andrew comforts JenniAnn following the death of her pet frog… who later has some wise words for the angel. |
89 |
“A Giant Dilemma for Adam” | 2008-Oct. 10 | http://www.onthisside.net/cabb/cabb9.html | Yvette’s story. It's Adam's birthday and he falls asleep while reading. This leads to one heckuva dream. |
90 |
“Andrew’s New Car” | 2008-Oct. | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb257.html | Andrew's psyched to be getting a new car, expecting something stylish and sporty. He gets a mini-van… |
91 |
“The Walls Between the Worlds” | 2008-Oct. | http://www.newsletters.onthisside.net/jabb258.html | Aww! This is where Santa Adam originated! I forgot that was actually in a Halloween... not Christmas... story. Anyhow, Andrew and Co. are in a store getting demoralized by the sensational and overly sexual elements of Halloween décor and costumes when they run into Santa and have a heartwarming encounter with a lil boy. |
92 |
