Alice is a time-traveler and uses her time manipulation to change something, but it takes a while for an effect to appear.
* '''Exaggerated''':???
Alice blinks at a time she wasn't supposed to and as a result, in an hour, all of humanity ceases to exist.
* '''Downplayed''':???The changes are subtle and in real-time, affecting memory as well, so its delay isn't even noticed.

Combining YouCantFightFate with this results in Alice going back and changing the past, but that change [[YouAlreadyChangedThePast already happened]]. However, this is just one shown timeline, and the action happens in more than one, and effects can be seen in other timelines.
* '''Averted''':???
Alice doesn't change the past at all.
* '''Enforced''':???
A movie director thinks it would look cool and changes the script to make that happen.
* '''Lampshaded''':???
"Okay, it should be about 20 minutes before I cease to exist."
* '''Invoked''':???
A MadScientist builds a machine that uses this effect specifically.
