History PlayingWith / ResetButton

* '''Exaggerated''': After a world-ending disaster, all of Alice's friends are dead, the major government's have been overthrown, all of mankind has been enslaved by powerful aliens that wiped out nearly half Earth's organic population, and [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking her favorite coffee shop files for bankruptcy]], Alice makes a wish on a star, and just like that, the birds are chirping, the sun is shining, all who was dead have been revived, and nobody speaks of the catastrophe again.

* '''Played For Drama''': The magical MacGuffin resets everything back to normal, but only activates ''right after'' Alice witnesses one of her friends (especially [[TheyKilledKennyAgain Bob]]) die a CruelAndUnusualDeath every time. And because she remembers everything that happened before its activations, she becomes traumatised and haunted by {{Past Experience Nightmare}}s of every violent death she was ForcedToWatch through, while Bob and the others go about their days blissfully unaware of their prevented demises, wondering why she was suddenly acting snappy and nervous every now and then.

* '''Deconstructed''': Alice likes things exactly the way they are. Whenever something happens that might upset the status quo she is currently living, she summons her magical forces and returns things back to the way she likes it. Nothing ever changes for Alice in her village. Nobody ever changes and technology never evolves.

Alice's village becomes a land stuck in a single moment, living blissfully, but without change.
