Spacetime

The combination of space and time in fiction that is relevant to a certain moment in which select entities in the immediate situation are rearranged to the advantage or in spite of somebody also in that situation. There are a few UnTrashes that pertain to Spacetime, such as Screw-Up In Spacetimeundefined, Slick With Spacetime, Spacetime Hates You, and Split-Second Miss. Depending on their contexts, these UnTrashes can either be greatly beneficial or detrimental to the characters subjected to them. Unless they have certain superpowers that allow them to leapfrog the normal rules of Spacetime such as Teleportation or Time Travel, these characters are completely at the mercy of Spacetime and have to use their best wits to overcome any issues it throws their way. This is especially true in high-action and -risk times like Chase or Unlate scenes respectively.

There are times when Spacetime's effects aren't as apparent like with the UnTrash Overheard And Hurt. In it, one character overhears what another one says about them and feels insulted or guilty. Had either one of those characters been at a different place or were in those places with different timing, Overheard And Hurt would never be able to play. This is true for many Spacetime-reliant UnTrashes like Blocker Train, an UnTrash that moves a train in the way of characters who are in a Chase Scene or need to be Unlate. If the train arrives at the intersection between the track and road before the playing characters, they often have to wait until the path is clear. If they can get to the other side of the tracks in time, the characters normally make it with incredible timing.
