Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Blackout / All Clear is one book divided into two, written by Connie Willis, and set in her "Fire Watch"-universe (along with Doomsday Book and To Say Nothing of the Dog). The books were published only a few months apart, in 2010, and were given a Hugo Award as a single work.In Oxford, in the year 2060, three historians are preparing to travel back to World War II: Michael Davies, posing as an American reporter, who wants to observe the heroism of the people at the evacuation of Dunkirk, from the safer vantage point of Dover. Merope Ward, posing as the servant Eileen O'Reilly, who is observing the children evacuated to the countryside during the Blitz. Polly Churchill (using the last name "Sebastian"), who wants to observe the Blitz itself, while posing as a shopgirl in Oxford Street.Things seem to go well at first. Michael and Polly lose some time to "slippage," but all three go about in their assignments. Merope has her hands full with the children (including sibling terrors, Alf and Binnie Hodbin), Polly finds a group to shelter with during the raids, and Michael goes searching for a way to get to Dover in time.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })And then things start to go wrong. Events don't go as planned. Things get worse. And suddenly, none of their drops to the future are opening. Nobody, it seems, is coming to get them...What Connie Willis said about Blackout and All Clear: | |

Time-Travel Romance | |
| Blackout / int_10de0193 | comment |
Time-Travel Romance: Zig-zagged: Polly realizes that it would be easy to fall for Stephen Lang, a charming and intrepid RAF pilot, in spite of his frivolousness, but knows that such a match would be impossible given that they're from completely different time periods. She also feels platonic love Sir Godfrey, even though he's already 50 years her senior when they meet. He's madly smitten with her but intellectually understands that their match would be impossible. Colin is 8 years too young for Polly and suggests that he take The Slow Path to match their ages because she's his Single-Target Sexuality. Ultimately he spends about 8 years trying to rescue her from the Blitz, so that when he finally finds her, their ages match, and she immediately falls in love with the man he's become. Eileen feels great affection for Vicar Goode, The Good Shepherd who helps her care for war orphans and refugees while she's in the past. When she decides to stay in the past to raise Binnie and Alf, it's implied that she quickly falls in love and marries him. | |

May–December Romance: Sir Godfrey quickly falls in love with the beautiful young Polly after she reveals her skill in acting, even though she's about 50 years younger than him. Polly returns his love platonicaly. Their out-of-sync romance is a more pronounced and gender-flipped version of Colin's love for Polly, with him being too young for her. | |

Fire-Forged Friends: Polly gets off to a rocky start with the other occupants of the bomb shelter. They all regard her dubiously when she shows up in the middle of a raid. Then she tries to borrow a newspaper only to be accused of theft and nearly thrown out before Sir Godfrey comes to her rescue. Soon, however, they all become friends through shared adversity, and Polly realizes in the end that she's going to miss them all. | |

Hidden Depths | |
| Blackout / int_2dc0d2bf | comment |
Hidden Depths: Street urchins Alf and Binnie aren't just incredibly accomplished petty thieves and liars. They also reveal a few talents that show how they could be productive members of society of given the right guidance: Binnie learns how to drive at the age of about 12 and manages to serve as an ambulance driver for a whole day. She also learns all the lines of everyone's parts when participating in a pantomime. Alf memorizes maps, allowing him to navigate London during a air raid, when many streets are blocked off. When Polly arrives back home after Eileen takes him in, she's surprised to find him diligently doing his homework. | |

Basically, ALL of time travel is this: every change you make is okay, because you have already made that change. | |

However, she'll die at a relatively young age from cancer. Mike has died sacrificing his life to save his fellow time travelers. Sir Godfrey will die before the end of the war, and several other friends have died along the way. Mr. Dunworthy returns to his present having helped rescue Polly, but he'll never see St Paul's again, and one of his students has died on his watch. | |

Meanwhile, in the Future… | |
| Blackout / int_42d7e928 | comment |
Meanwhile, in the Future…: The chapters generally switch around between different months of 1940, but sometimes they go to 1944, and the early chapters are set in 2060. It's particularly muddled in the first half of the first book, where Mike, Eileen, and Polly are all the same distance in time from leaving Oxford but because of their different arrival dates are therefore passing through the events of 1940 at different points in the story. The fact that it keeps cutting back to Mary, Ernest, and Douglas in the later part of the war doesn't exactly help untangle the chronology, especially as it turns out that one of them is genuinely in the future via The Slow Path and the other two are the same person, in the objective future but her subjective past. Got that? | |

Only One Me Allowed Right Now | |
| Blackout / int_5fc0d315 | comment |
Only One Me Allowed Right Now: "Deadline" has a grimly literal meaning: if you've already been to a point in time, later versions of you are not allowed there. The continuum will enforce this, if necessary, by killing off all extraneous versions of you. So, if you've already been to 1 May 1945 and you later travel to an earlier point in time, the continuum will arrange for you to have an unfortunate accident before 1 May 1945 rolls around. | |

Unwanted Harem | |
| Blackout / int_71019994 | comment |
Unwanted Harem: Due to being in incompatible time periods, time travelers often find themselves ducking the advances of others. Polly is frequently annoyed by the attentions of suitors, particularly the smooth-talking Stephen Lang. She can't have any romantic involvements with anyone, because they're all from a century in her past. Mike is alarmed when a barkeep's daughter sets her sights on him, and other men around him are surprised when he rebuffs her advances. Colin runs into an older woman who'd fallen in love with him decades earlier while he was time traveling and had to ditch her. He feels guilty about it. | |

| Blackout / int_79a60aec | comment |
For Want of a Nail: The time travelers, particularly Michael, worry that they will act as a Butterfly of Doom and cause the Allies to lose the war. Polly even namechecks the trope. In the end, Polly looks at the trope in reverse as part of the major themes of the book: Everyone pulling together and "doing their bit" for the war effort, no matter how seemingly insignificant, helped win the war. One tiny act of kindness, sacrifice or courage could have had major repercussions on the course of history. | |

Character Name Alias | |
| Blackout / int_7c1bf001 | comment |
Character Name Alias: Let's see... Polly tends to use names from William Shakespeare. The whole Fortitude South counterespionage cell in 1944 uses the names of the characters from The Importance of Being Earnest. However appropriate, it's bizarre to hear the (male) commander referred to as "Lady Bracknell". | |

Double-Meaning Title | |
| Blackout / int_a4905771 | comment |
Double-Meaning Title: "Blackout" is the term for making sure no one's lights are visible during bombing night raids to prevent giving the German's targets. It also represents the dilemma the time travelers are in: trapped with no information about why they're stuck or how to contact home. "All clear" is the term for the end of a bombing run. It also describes the inevitable end of the war and the lack of any remaining impediments to the surviving time travelers to return home. | |

Dramatic Irony: Due to the interwoven plot and time lines, the reader is often privy to more information than the POV character, leading to many instances of this. The biggest example is when we see Mike's last moments with Polly for the second time from the opposite person's perspective. | |

In-universe, historian Gerald Phipps was attempting to join an intelligence operation at Bletchley Park, and Ernest/Michael joins the disinformation counter-intelligence force at Fortitude South. | |

Year Outside, Hour Inside | |
| Blackout / int_d75a1703 | comment |
Year Outside, Hour Inside: Sort of. Eileen was there first (her assignment began in late 1939 and was well-underway by the time we meet her in the book, and she occasionally came back to Oxford to report and get crash courses in supplementary skills); Michael from May 1940 before Dunkirk; Polly from September 1940, towards the beginning of the Blitz; and Mr. Dunworthy attempts to go through to September after Polly but winds up in December 1940. Colin spends at least four years doing research, including going to other time periods to access records destroyed in the St. Paul's pinpoint, and attempting to find the historians. He finds Michael first in June 1944 after D-Day, who gives him the needed information to find the others in April 1941. | |

Meaningful Rename: Polly Churchill can't use her real last name in WWII for obvious reasons. Instead, she uses characters from Shakespeare. Which is a hint that Mary (for which Polly is a nickname) Kent (from King Lear) is Polly. And not only is Douglas, the girl introduced at VE Day, a character in Macbeth, it is also a type of motorcycle— which hints that Douglas is Mary Kent, the FANY who mistook a motorcycle for a V-1, who is also Polly. To replace her Embarrassing First Name, Binnie also tries on a bunch of different names, from Vivian to Rapunzel. She finally settles on Eileen. | |
