History: Since Steins;Gate occurs over so many different worldlines and tends to do horrible, horrible things to the nature of causality, I'll be doing two things for simplicity's sake: restricting this section to ONLY this Suzuha's worldline (α attractor field, divergence 0.337187%), and presenting an overarching chronological timeline instead of a traditional narrative. This is largely to prevent any confusion from the nonlinear perspective from which I had to figure this thing out (time in this worldline tends to involve circular patterns, for one), to include necessary background details, and to prevent repetition where possible. If you wish to see it from Suzuha's perspective, the simplest way to do so is to start in 2017 and jump around with her until finished. I will bold her arrivals and departures where appropriate.
1954 -The research organization "SERN" is founded in Europe.
1973 -SERN creates its first draft of the Z-Program. This program involves making a time machine, successfully testing on humans, and using it to eliminate conflict, war, and poverty worldwide. To that end, it begins to enlist Rounders, special forces ranging from augmented time-travelers to cell-phone enlisted teenagers, to do its necessary work.
1975 -The IBN5100, a new portable PC, goes on sale. -Suzuha Amane arrives on an imperfectly-repaired time machine, having traveled from 2010 in order to find an IBN5100 for Rintarou Okabe, founder of the resistance group Valkyrie. (Note: this still happens in the past, even though Suzuha Amane is arriving in Holly Heights before she makes this journey.) -A Rounder successfully time-traveling behind her ambushes her, knocking her out and wiping the majority of her memories. -Suzuha, only remembering her name and her father's, registers her name as “Suzu Hashida” and lives a normal life for quite some time.
1990s -Suzu Hashida successfully becomes a physics professor at a nearby university.
1991 -Rintarou Okabe and Itaru Hashida are born.
1997 -Suzuha Amane, acting as landlord of the building Rintarou Okabe will eventually use as his headquarters, helps a poor Yuugo Tennouji establish a CRT monitor shop downstairs.
1999 -Suzuha Amane regains her memories and remembers her original mission: to obtain an IBN5100. She immediately attempts to salvage her duty.
2000 June Unable to find an IBN5100, Suzuha writes a letter apologizing to Rintarou Okabe and his group of lab members. She says she “failed,” apologizes for living “a life wasted”, gives the letter to Yuugo Tennouji with express instructions, and hangs herself.
2001 -The Large Hadron Collider, built with the purpose of creating dual-singularity Kerr black holes for time travel, goes into operation.
2010 July 28 -Suzuha Amane arrives in her time machine and promptly crashes into the Radio Kaikan building, leading to the cancellation of Dr. Nakabachi's time travel conference. -Suzuha Amane finds a part-time job in Yuugo Tennouji's CRT television store, hiding out to find and assist Rintarou Okabe. -Throughout her stay, Suzuha posts to @channel and a few other boards under the alias of “John Titor.” She reveals some details of the future – SERN's dystopia and the specifications of her time machine, amongst others – and lies about others. All this is done in an attempt to elicit the attention of Barrel Titor, her father.
August -While eavesdropping, Suzuha learns that Okabe has created a time machine that operates on cellular data. She continues to help his theory and goal as “John Titor,” going so far as to call him the Messiah when she finds that his memories are preserved across jumped worldlines. -Suzuha spots Kurisu Makise entering the laboratory, causing a great deal of conflict. She attempts to warn Okabe that Kurisu is a SERN spy, to no avail. -Suzuha attempts to kill Kurisu, stealthily enough to avoid the watch of the rest of the group. Freak coincidence leads to failure, after which Suzuha acknowledges that Kurisu's life is likely being preserved thanks to the principle of attractor field convergence. (Loosely summarized: events in the past have inertia of sorts, and it takes great impulse to “break free” of that field. Even though a parallel worldline has a different series of events leading up to it (approaching 100% by Everett-Wheeler), most worldlines reconverge into the “primary” one; the time and status of one's death, for instance, is a necessity.)
August 11 -Upon realizing that Rintarou Okabe has successfully time-leaped two days into the past to prevent some great catastrophe, she reveals her alias of John Titor and her mission. -When she is unable to find her father, she vows to go back after one try: a science-fiction convention, one which her mother told her that her father had attended. She is followed by Rintarou Okabe and his lab members, who inform her that they want to help find her father. She shows them the badge that was passed on into her possession and they begin to search. -Kurisu talks with her person-to-person about her father and the grudge Suzuha holds. Suzuha admits to Kurisu that she was in charge of killing her with a sniper rifle in 2034 and failed, a fact which Kurisu Makise keeps close. -After the group searches with no luck, Itaru Hashida commissions a con badgemaker under the name “Barrel Titor” (a pun on his own name – Ha-shi-da-i-ta-ru for Titor, Daru → Taru for “Barrel”) to make Suzuha's badge. He plans to tell her he found it at the sci-fi convention, and thus allow her to leave with the “knowledge” that her father is safe. -Itaru Hashida begins to repair Suzuha's time machine.
August 12 -Itaru Hashida figures out that the time machine is one way only – once Suzuha leaps, she will be unable to return.
August 13 -Itaru Hashida successfully repairs the time machine. -Mayuri Shiina deduces that Itaru Hashida is Suzuha Amane's biological father and explains her reasoning. -Suzuha and Itaru share a moment, after which they say goodbye. -Suzuha travels with the intent of reaching 1975. Instead, she blacks out mid-travel and wakes up in Holly Heights.
August 14th -Yuugo Tennouji gives Rintarou Okabe the suicide note of Suzu Hashida. -SERN raids Rintarou Okabe's laboratory. Mayuri Shiina is killed, and Okabe, Itaru, and Kurisu are all taken as hostages.
2011 December 29 -Rintarou Okabe and Itaru Hashida escape from SERN and go into hiding during the Winter Comiket. Kurisu Makise is unable to escape. -Itaru Hashida switches names entirely to “Barrel Titor.” -Itaru Hashida meets Yuki Amane at the Winter Comiket. -When their safety is confirmed, Rintarou Okabe and Itaru Hashida commence Operation Valkyrie: the anti-SERN resistance.
2017 September 27 -Suzuha Amane is born to Barrel Titor and Yuki Amane.
2020 -Evidence surfaces which leads Attractor Field Convergence, a minor theory until now, to become the standard accepted model of parallel universes.
2025 -The Rounders successfully find Rintarou Okabe, leader of the resistance, and kill him. -Barrel Titor becomes the new leader of the resistance. Suzuha vows to follow in her father's footsteps, and begins to train herself for survival and combat. She also learns quickly to avoid being spotted or becoming a noted figure at all costs, as the nature of time travel would allow for her immediate elimination if this were to happen.
2033 -Barrel Titor is discovered by the Rounders and killed.
2034 -Suzuha Amane is given a sniper rifle and a mission: to assassinate Kurisu Makise, the “mother of time travel.” Kurisu spots her, causing Suzuha to miss the shot, and the majority of her companions are immediately killed by the Rounders. Suzuha escapes unharmed. -Kurisu Makise finishes the time machine for SERN. -Kurisu Makise dies in a “freak accident” a few months later. -Using their time machines, SERN eliminates all opposition and successfully creates “world peace” through forcible brainwashing. Dystopia fully arrives.
2036 September 27 -Valkyrie commences Operation Jormungandr, the execution of a SERN official. Suzuha is once again given the honor of sniper duty. She is unable to take the shot thanks to memories of her past failure, and thus escapes the waiting ambush undiscovered. Yuki Amane gives her daughter Barrel Titor's last recorded message, a movie in which he explains that he created a time machine for her to use. -Her mission is to travel to 1975 and obtain an IBN5100 for Rintarou Okabe's formation of Valkyrie. This old computer will allow Rintarou Okabe to access SERN's database, compile the proprietary programming language, and delete the text he sent to alter the timeline. -While the time machine is moved into position on top of Radio Kaikan, an ambush causes it to crash into the building. Suzuha's mother is killed by the Rounders. -In a moment of weakness, Suzuha time travels to July 28, 2010 instead of 1975. Her goal: find her father, spend a few moments with him, and head to 1975 in order to change the future.
