At some point, one version of Jenny Everywhere suffered a freak, one-in-a-billion accident which caused her a minor brain injury altering Broca's area. When she came to, she was startled to find that she had lost all connection to the network of other Jennies; she could no longer read their minds and they could no longer read hers. Viewing it as a liberation, she renamed herself [[Jenny Nowhere#Divergent Everywheres|Jenny Nowhere]] and began travelling the [[Multiverse]] to find her other selves and “liberate” them through a surgical operation replicating the effect. She succeeded at “creating” an unknown number of additional Jenny Nowheres in this manner, including [[Jenny Nowhere#Killed by a dinosaur|one]] who was encountered by [[Jenny Everywhere#Kim's friend|“Kim's friend”]].

One version of Jenny lived on Earth in [[Universe (Cars)|one universe]]. She often hung out at a bar called the ''[[Flat Earth]]'' with a [[Jenny Everywhere's friend (Cars)|human friend]] who didn't seem to quite believe Jenny meant every word of her fantastical adventure tales.

([[COMIC]]: ''[[Cars (comic story)|Cars]]'', ''[[Tribute (comic story)|Tribute]]'') She had a fairly standard appearance for a Jenny Everywhere, a pudgy young Asian woman (who showed no signs of aging over many years) wearing a scarf, goggles, ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Tribute (comic story)|Tribute]]'') and a flower-shaped hair-pin. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Cars (comic story)|Cars]]'') She had good control of her [[shift]]ing and had many fantastical adventures in various universes, but was naive and confused when it came to modern adult life in the “real world”.

==== Teenaged shenanigans ==== | |||
When the friend in question was still too young to legally drink, Jenny stole an out-of-date I.D. card from their counterpart in [[Universe (Tribute)|a parallel world]], who was older by a few years. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Tribute (comic story)|Tribute]]'') | |||

[[File:Jenny Everywhere in Cars.png|thumb|left|Jenny at karaoke night. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Cars (comic story)|Cars]]'')]]Jenny once sang a song in the bar during what appeared to be a karaoke night. The song was flirtatious, and she began focusing on her friend, who was confused about the situation. However, she ended up forgetting the end of the lyrics, putting an end to the moment.

==== Innocence broken ==== | |||
[[File:Jenny hanging out with her friend in Tribute.jpg|thumb|right|Jenny and her friend hanging out. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Tribute (comic story)|Tribute]]'')]]Over the subsequent years, Jenny continued to have meet-ups (albeit increasingly spaced-out) with her friend at the ''[[Flat Earth]]'' bars. As they swapped memories and news, Jenny would tell them about her latest fantastical adventures, including riding a T-rex in a Far West setting, fighting an evil brain-in-a-jar and being stranded in the void of space. | |||
Her friend did not actually believe these stories, believing them to just be tall tales Jenny invented to amuse them; in turn, the ever-cheerful Jenny remained oblivious to the obvious downward turns that her friend's life was taking, with them being unwilling to speak up about it in a way that would shatter Jenny's childlike innocence. Eventually, however, Jenny came to a meet-up only for her friend not to show up; thinking back, she realised they had been dealing with cancer and were, by now, dead. Distraught beyond belief, Jenny ran out of the bar in tears. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Tribute (comic story)|Tribute]]'') | |||
