Inspired by the Internet’s alternative fiction communities and a quote from ''[[Some Like itIt Hot]]'' ("Look how she moves! It's like Jell-O on springs."), It’s Always Time is an erotic adventure-comedy about the transformation of an insecure geek into a superhero when he accidentally summons a supernatural nymphomaniac out of magical lime gelatin. Their story is a twisted fairytale version of the three act "Boy Meets Girl" plot where the classical obstacles to romance are embodied by a super-villainess made out of cherry gelatin and devil’s food pudding and a horde of sorority sex zombies.
 
So, this is a pretty traditional story of [[Interspecies Romance|Boy meets Goo]]. No typo there, we mean that our main character, Deiter Detwiler, meets, and subsequently mates, a woman made out of living gelatin- Created by his own hand to boot. And that is not the point where things get weird.
 
''[[It's Always Time]]'' (''IAT'' for short) is a [[Web Original]] 'Erotic Farce' written by author-figure Oblimo Oblissimo, located at http://oblimo.pbworks.com/ . The story follows a traditional Epic framework with enough twists to make pretzels feel bad for themselves- Starting with the fact that some of the concepts are based at that most infamous of [[Image Boards]], 4chan.
 
And with no further ado, the actual tropes of IAT.

Oh yeah- [[Not Safe for Work]] is putting things very, very mildly.

{{tropelist}}
* [[Anachronic Order]]: There's a [[Time Skip]], and the story opens with Dee making the Jell-O and thinking [[How We Got Here]].
* [[Applied Phlebotinum]]: The stories main engine, nanomek/novilunium is nanomachines meets [[Functional Magic]]. And then there's the heroine, who is [[Made of Phlebotinum]].
Line 30 ⟶ 28:
* [[Interspecies Romance]]
* [[I Read It for the Articles]]: Even if you don't enjoy the fetishes in question, it can ''still'' be an entertaining read.
* ~[[The Little Shop That Wasn't There Yesterday~]]: Guess what type of store Tomoe runs, and guess where Dee gets the thickener. [[Subverted Trope|You're wrong]]. SRT medical supplies is a standard store that just happens to be run by a witch and sell [[Applied Phlebotinum]], though Dee [[Genre Savvy|expects]] it to be this.
* [[Meta Origin]]: Everything (and we mean ''everything'') originates from someone's (or some''thing's'') fetishes.
* [[Meaningful Name]]: Dee (/d/: Hentai/Alternative), Ursula (/u/: Yuri), and Yves (/y/: Yaoi) are named after 4chan boards, and have the sexual orientations to match. A guy named Kay was also briefly mentioned as having gone to Iraq. /k/ is 4chan's weapons board.
* [[Porn Tropes]]: Deliberately employed in the B-plot with the Zombie Whorde.
* [[Rape ISIs Okay When Its Female On Male]]: When a reader raised a querulous voice about the men sexually assaulted by the Zombie Whorde, Oblimo clarified that the sex was reluctant rather than actively non-consensual. Glad that's cleared up. It is definetely ''not'' okay with {{spoiler|Black Cherry's rape of Yves.}}
* [[Seen It All]]: Tomoe Exposition is a clear Type 3, and knows it.
* [[Shout-Out]] : Many, although one deserves to be pointed out. In Act 3, chapter 3, we find out the the aforementioned /U/rsula is a witch, who was part of a group that played D&D as kids. In her group, there was a girl named Marcie who had a thief named Black Leaf, who died in-game. It is implied that she committed suicide. In the infamous [http://www.chick.com/reading/tracts/0046/0046_01.ASP Dark Dungeons] strip by [[Jack Chick]] there is a girl named Marcie who kills herself after her Thief, Black Leaf dies.
