A Note on Chronology

With so many threads running one into another, those threads occurring frequently at night, and then several months in between causing added confusion... the new threads were a bit off. As always, the correct chronology for past threads can be found here.
But what does that mean for current threads?
The problem is that Achilles never dated "The Plot Thickens" and our recent threads have been working off of that. That thread occurs the day AFTER we acquired Achilles from Dukkha. I.e. April 17th. That means that Wolves in the Night must occur the next day, the 18th, because we're not there yet. This then has the problem with it running into The Great Space Adventure (which I assume was modeled off my recent thread for the Sweethome operation itself, using the correct date) which now would occur at the same time... with the same participants.
As far as other open threads go, Greeting the Morning takes place the morning of the 16th BEFORE we reach Dukkha, recruit Achilles, and have "the Plot Thickens". That's because it was sparked by my thread with Gunn that occurs at the same time. That thread takes place the morning after "Round Two" and Gunn's earlier reveal on the 15th.
So is everyone thoroughly confused?
The order of events goes:
April 2nd - The Syndicate starts moving to begin the contract. Gunn is brought onto the plan, etc.
April 6th - Onas and his entourage have a face-to-face with Davis to hire him onto the job.
April 8th - Peerless arrives on Beaumonde. Roger and Vitale get in a shootout with Cheverus, interogate him/take him for medical aid, and run into Ros who we recruit. We meet Mai and recruit her alongside an escape from police.
April 8th-10th - Assorted shit while we are in transit. Gunn and Vitale in Idle Hands, Desmond makes moonshine, Vitale is diagnosed with 20 STDs, booze is passed around, etc.
April 10th-11th - Start talking about and planning the Santo Mission.
April 13th - Santo Briefing
Night of the 14th - We hit Santo, kidnap Corvey, rescue Esmay.
Early morning of the 15th - First Corvey interrogation, Esmay gets somewhat settled on the ship, some debriefings, etc.
Later on the 15th - Gunn talks to Roger and reveals herself, background checks run on Gunn, Esmay's intel, etc. Roger decides to let Gunn stay and not get spaced. Second interrogation of Corvey.
Morning of the 16th - Roger goes to talk to Gunn. The Breakfast thread happens.
Later on the 16th - Peerless arrives at Dukkha. Achilles is recruited.
Morning of the 17th - Achilles and Corvey interrogation.
Early Morning of the 18th - We arrive at Sweethome, Elijah and company scout it out.
Night of the 18th - Ground team leaves the Peerless to get in position.
Super early morning, still nightime of the 19th - We attack the base on Sweethome.
Slightly better? Does that help at all?
Other than getting your bearings, we just have the problem of the Des and Rio thread being chronologically on top of the Des, Rio, and Eli thread. The scouting thread really can't move. The 'splosives thread can either be pushed REALLY early in the morning before they ever leave to scout or it can be bumped back to early morning of the 17th before Desmond ever goes to beat the shit out of Achilles. The later would probably make the most sense if the kitchen is actually open.
