Contents
Plot
Jenny Everywhere arrives in one universe only to immediately feel that she cannot shift out of it. Her surroundings resemble an idealised 1950s suburb, and she can see no villainous force responsible for her predicament. Realising she cannot remember anything about other worlds than this one (although she does remember that she should do so), she meets up with Jimmmy Wherever, who is in the same situation, does not remember how he arrived in this world, and has apparently been here for a week.
After she kisses and comforts him, he informs her that he spotted versions of her parents who have also been brought to this universe, apparently coming from a different timeline to theirs. Though happy to “see her again” and to meet her boyfriend, the two, after inviting Jenny inside, confess that they too are aware that this world is “wrong”, and don't trust it. This is met with agreement from Jenny Anywhere, who has apparently been here for two weeks and hates it with a passion. Anywhere explains that a version of each of Jenny's associates is here (including not just friends, but also Jenny Nowhere. Indeed, Jenny Somewhere suddenly materialises in the middle of the living room, upset that her shifting powers are going even wronger than usual, resulting in her just teleporting to various locations in the neighbourhood but naturally not managing to leave the universe.
Later, Jenny Everywhere finally finds Nowhere. Though Nowhere beings to launch into one of her typical villainous monologues, Everywhere brutally cuts her off and pins her to the ground, shouting at her that trapping her and her family in “this sick Stepford sh¨t” is crossing a line even by Nowhere's standards. Nowhere then reiterates her declaration of love for Everywhere, who dodges by distracting Nowhere with a lie about their being related long enough to run away from her.
Later still, Jenny Anywhere and Jimmy Anytime dance by a fire, sharing a romantic moment, until they are intruded upon by Nowhere, who literally throws Jenny Somewhere at them, irate at apparently having been tricked by her into thinking that Somewhere was a proper incarnation of Jenny Everywhere. Everywhere finally decides to stop running from Nowhere and faces her, with all her other friends surrounding her. Intimidated at last, and accepting that she won't get what she wants from Everywhere today, a snarling Nowhere reluctantly activates a device which returns their memories and powers to all the shifters present. Hand in hand, Jenny Everywhere and Jimmy Wherever shift onwards to some other adventure…
Worldbuilding
Jenny Everywhere

Jenny Nowhere

Jenny Somewhere
- A clone of Jenny Everywhere, Jenny Somewhere is described as wearing a leaf-shaped pin as well as a scarf and goggles.

He explicitly has no powers of his own. The description adds that “he’s a little basic but ultimately a hero, adventurer, and good boy”.
