==Contents==
===Plot===
While [[Jenny Everywhere (38167th Universe)|Jenny Everywhere]] is having a relaxing day in the [[Jungles of Hooloo]], back in her [[38167th Universe|home universe]] and [[New Flaversham|home town]], her girlfriend-turned-archnemesis [[Laura Drake (38167th Universe)|Laura Drake]] is plotting trouble, recruiting a strange helmeted man named [[The Beastmaster (38167th Universe)|the Beastmaster]]. 

Back in the jungle, Jenny takes a wrong turn into a spookier area, and is confronted with a [[Marsh-Maiden|four-armed humanoid]] with long seaweed-like hair and glowing eyes, the better part of her body seemingly made of mud. Despite the creature's attempts to scare her, Jenny just introduces herself and tries to make friends, confusing the entity, who stands still. This angers the Beastmaster, who shows himself. Jenny realises that he brought the Marsh-Maiden from another universe, and asks him if he is a [[shift]]er. He replies that he isn't by nature, showing her the [[shift-gun]] he used instead, which she recognises as one of Laura's inventions. 

Despite Jenny's warning that the shift-guns are dangerous and reliable, the Beastmaster uses it on himself and Jenny to transport them to a snowy landscape next to a medieval castle, apparently home to another one of the supernatural creatures in the Beastmaster's arsenal: a small orange [[Dragon (Jenny Everywhere and the Master of Monsters)|Dragon]], who the Beastmaster hopes is above being “manipulated” by Jenny's words, being non-sapient. However, Jenny is also able to placate it, petting it like a dog. 

In anger, the Beastmaster zaps himself and Jenny to yet another location: an oasis in the middle of a desert, home to a [[Sphinx]] called [[Paisi Psusennes|Paisi]]. His pride wounded by Jenny's pointing out that none of his monsters really like him, the Beastmaster orders Paisi to give him her honest feelings about him, and is dismayed to see her rattle off a long list of complaints, ending with a conclusion that he is barely worthy of being a master-of-monsters at all. Jenny encourages Paisi to carry this reasoning through to its logical conclusion: rejecting her past loyalty to the Beastmaster, she decides to see him as simply a rival monster intruding on her territory, and, taking flight, chases him into the distance. 

Jenny stomps on the shift-gun, rendering it inoperable, then shifts back to New Flaversham — directly onto the ledge in front of the window of Laura's office, startling her. As Jenny confronts Laura about what just happened, Laura reveals that the Beastmaster is a [[revenant]] and they start laughing together about his ego. Displaying no ill will whatsoever, Jenny suggests to a somewhat surprised Laura that they go out for ice-cream, and, after a moment's hesitation, Laura agrees.
