Wanted for Questioning was an in-universe “wanted poster” for Jenny Everywhere created by Laura Seabrook for Jenny Everywhere Day in 2021.
Contents
Plot
A catch-all “Wanted” poster is put out for Jenny Everywhere. Unfortunately, being, as it does, a crystallisation of everything known about her and of all the organisations who are looking for her, it is rather unhelpful in terms of distinguishing information.
Worldbuilding
Jenny Everywhere
- Pictures of four different incarnations of Jenny are used, one of them very blurry. The description describes Jenny as having “short and dark hair, unless long and brunette”, “eyes blue, but sometimes green or brown”, and sporting “aviator goggles and a scarf” or more rarely “jeans and mirrored glasses”.
- The poster alleges that Jenny's real name is Jennifer Barbelith. It also cites “the Shifter” as one of her names.
Other
- Jenny is wanted by “the FBI, MI5, MI6, the Royal Australian Corps of Military Police, the [[Special Frontier
Force]], the General Directorate for Internal Security, the Buenos Aires Provincial Police, the Lögreglan, thе Økokrim, thе Служба безопасности президента России, the National Police of Burundi, and Interpol”. People with information on Jenny are invited to contact Inspector Zenigata.
- “Known associates” of Jenny's include J. Steed, E. Moneypenny, J. Lane, Gatth, S. Tracey, M. Holmes, A. Lupin III, M. Blaise, D. Morgendorfer, N. "Octobriana" Pacenikov, J. King, A. Capp, A. Haddock, J. Drake, J. Corneilius, L. Cage, T. J. Newton, S. Macready, T. King, F. Bryce, A. Andrews and Pansy Hunks.
Behind the scenes
Background
Laura Seabrook noted that this piece, containing less original art than her Jenny Everywhere Day entries in previous years, was “the best I could do this year with only one cataract surgery done”. One of the images used by Seabrook for the poster recycled one of her earlier Jenny Everywhere Day pieces, a simple non-narrative portrait of Jenny from the 2012 event.
Most of the names in the list of “known associates” are references to other (copyrighted) fictional characters, such as Miss Moneypenny from the James Bond franchise.
