Wondering about placement of the firing-squad incident, which comes at the end of TPS but you put it after the events of Tales?
Well it depends how we define TPS, hence the dotted blue line on the right part to show that the firing-squad incident is tied to the TPS game while happening way in the “future” of the actual TPS gameplay events (Jack/Helios/Sentinel).
TPS is 2 things, the gameplay, and the story told by Athena while tied to the pole in front of the firing squad, and this last part of course happens after BL2 AND after she’s captured by Brick and Mordecai. The capture happening in TFTB ep 3.
So in this official pic here below, the firing-squad kind of happens where the “NOW” is placed :

Also I made the pics for 2 reasons, the first being because I’m a fan of Athena, the second because I’ve seen a LOT of people confused with the timeline, not so much in these forums though, but a lot on the Steam forum, or on the TFTB forum. Not saying you are confused ok

If you’re talking about the firing squad, then the elapsed time is the time it takes to Brick and Mordecai to “haul” Athena back to Sanctuary after capturing her in ep 3 of TFTB in a remote part of Pandora.
THAT SAID, ep 4 & 5 of TFTB are not out yet and there might be more events pertaining to Athena, Brick and Mordecai since it appears in TPS (when at the firing-squad) they’re more beat up, wounded, and tired than they seem to be at the end of ep 3 of TFTB. It’s a possibility, but I doubt it : I think ep 3 of TFTB closes the “loop” as far as Athena is concerned.
But there’s something you are responsible of, he he, I just noticed I wrote “fire-squad” on the pic, and it should be “firing-squad”, so thanks for pointing that up, so i’ll be editing the pic and re-uploading it
