β The post that started it all
Timeburger is the non-binary ship between Nothingburger Drama and the Tetratto Timeline from the Tetratto fandom.
Timeline is known to fixate on drama for a long period of time, sometimes drama that has no real importance. As such, rumours spread fast on timeline and often stay as a point of discussion for quite a while. It is quite easy to spark a heated discussion on timeline.
On 19th August 2025, @family expressed his opinion that the Alterspring-Tetratto drama was pointless, and both sides were fixated on nothingburger drama. As such, @lovesua came up with the idea of a toxic yuri ship between the timeline and said nothingburger drama, and Timeburger was born.
In Fanon, Timeline loves drama and never has enough of it, while Nothingburger isn't all that interested, and yet all of the drama seems to revolve around them.
The Timeline is always trying to get Nothingburger's attention which they never give her, yet whenever she finally breaks things off Nothingburger always desperately wants her back.
Timeline always wants something more out of their relationship, but Nothingburger is nonchalant, never displaying any affection until their relationship is actually in danger, which just leads Timeline to cling on harder. But the truth is, Nothingburger has always wanted to be someone and will never let Timeline break it off because the only time they've felt like a real person was with her, and it drains Timeline's energy but she wants to be with Nothingburger so bad, but she keeps roping them into the petty drama she's so interested in. Breaking their self esteem. Hurting them, but they're so awful to each other they've lost any sense of morality.
There is no universe in which they weren't drawn to eachother, because they are pretty much made for eachother, but also no universe in which they manage to sort out their relationship struggles due to the fact that they're polar opposites. They can never break it off no matter how toxic it is because they have both secretly started to like this dynamic. Maybe even enjoy it.
Nothingburger
Nothingburger has never achieved anything, never amounted to anything. Everything they have done has ended in nothing. In fact, they have never tried to be anything more. They are, in perfect words, a complete nobody. They blend into their surroundings, their clothes do not stand out, and they never have anything meaningful to say. Drama would surround them and they wouldn't bat an eye. Everyone seemed to want to make something out of Nothingburger, but the truth was, they had nothing to them at all, and there was no point trying.
And then, they met Timeline. Timeline was bubbly and happy before meeting Nothingburger, although her thirst for drama always kept her back. She was someone. She had personality. She was everything Nothingburger wanted to be and they hadn't even realised they could feel this way. All these feelings were new and foreign, and Nothingburger continued to chase that high that being around Timeline gave them. but they could never give anything back (in fact, they were both all take and no give, both toxic). They wouldn't display any hint of love on their face, they couldn't, because Nothingburger is all or nothing. No emotion, or too much emotion, the latter Timeline had triggered in them. They worried if they showed how Timeline really made them feel, she would leave them for good. And every time Timeline would break it off because they were so toxic for eachother, they would beg, show emotion for once. They needed her. They wanted to feel. Nobody could understand what it was like, for this one girl to just give them meaning in life. Nothingburger is nothing without Timeline, and they know it. They can't go back to who they were before. They need Timeline, always, and so they cling on, never letting go. What would they even do without her, nobody else could love her like this, right? And as Timeline has them wrapped around her finger at this point, there's no knowing what Nothingburger would do if Timeline ever truly tried to leave them.
Timeline
Timeline has a thirst for gossip and a sixth sense for approaching drama. She's always the first to know, the one to spread it, and the one to end it. But sometimes, there just isn't anything going on. Nothing to talk about. And timeline gets bored. She hates being bored. Maybe she's compensating because the only thing people ever approach her for is to talk about drama, she feels like she is nothing without it, and so seeks it out almost always.
The first time she met Nothingburger, she was instantly drawn to them. Drama surrounded them, an endless supply, an aura of mystique too. Timeline couldn't help feeling just a twinge of envy, and maybe there was something more to Nothingburger, something behind that porcelain expression, and so she fell for them. And hard. She would try to please them all the time, would talk about them all the time and hype them up to be something they're not, giving and giving and giving, yet taking and taking and taking (because the only person Nothingburger had to be with was her) - until, eventually, all her friends left her, and Nothingburger still never looked at her any different from the rest. Sometimes, she would snap out of it and realise how awful they were for eachother and break it off, but in the time they were gone, she'd miss them dearly, and Nothingburger would beg for her to come back, a pleading expression on their face, and how could Timeline say no to them? And maybe it would be different this time..! They would express their love, devote themselves... Look at the emotion they were showing now! So maybe it would all change. But it never did. Still, she enabled their behaviour of begging for her to return to them, fed into their obsession, though her toxicity is not as obvious as Nothingburger's, she unconsciously (and sometimes consciously) toying with their feelings and increases their mental instability. Subtly breaking their self esteem so the Nothingburger thinks the only person who could ever care for them is Timeline. That way, she'll have them all to herself. If she can't be them, if they won't ever look at her with love, she will have them, and make sure at least they don't have the opportunity to even look at someone the way they never did with her.
Never showing affection, and breaking people when they don't give you affection, are the two's dynamic.
@Chiluc for fanart!
- Timeline is actually taller than Nothingburger by a few centimetres
- They both have the capacity to have a healthy relationship but not the experience to translate that into real life
- While @lovesua came up with designs, Timeburger can take any shape, or any form
- They are cursed to find eachother in every universe
- When Timeline got a font change, her fashion style became more bubbly! Originally, it was more elegant wear.
- Timeline has a pet cat named Tawny, and two bunnies named Fluffle and Slug. She has to keep Tawny away from her bunnies.
- Nothingburger has no real interests outside of the ones Timeline introduced them to
- If Nothingburger was trapped on a desert island with only one object, they would bring Timeline
