I like to use the same time-bubble that is used to explain aging and the MSQ. I can be involved in multiple plots simultaneously in each corner of Eorzea and not have them cross. Some of this is due to Coatleque being a Sultansworn tied to Ul'dah - what some see as a limitation works to my benefit here.
For example, in the longest running story she is involved in, Coatleque is actually leading a small team into Coerthas to setup unobtrusive recon for Thanalan. Last night I did a photo shoot with Spahro for Dubious Distributions in the Goblet. In my mind, that took place before she left the city and there is no connection between the two events to say otherwise.
Yep! Most things sort of just happen in floaty time, and if needed they can be snapped into a timeline after the fact.
Until then I don't really worry about it. Evangeline had a hour long discussion with an Au Ra about horn socks, to keep their horns warm in Ishgard.
I doubt an exact accounting of its start will ever be needed.
