The “first” incarnation of Sophie Everytime was the daughter of Lord Thymon and of the 38167th Universe's version of Jenny Everywhere. She was a time-shifter.

Description

Physical appearance

Sophie had “warm brown skin (…) the same colour as Jenny’s”. Her “long, thick locks of navy-blue hair” resembled her father's tentacles and may in fact have been prehensile; they matched her eyes, which “weren’t quite glowing, but (…) were a blue that eyes should not be. Not sea-blue or steel-blue or sky-blue, but the bluest blue, an intense, darkly electric hue; Fremen blue”.

As a child of six or seven, she wore a “slightly-oversized green sweater”, blue-jean shorts that exposed lightly-scraped knees, and “simple, sturdy sandals”. (PROSE: Family Business) As a teenager she owned a forest green hoodie. (PROSE: The Wedding of Jenny Everywhere, etc.)

Personality

Sophie was kind, adventurous and fun-loving like her mother. (PROSE: Family Business)

Powers & abilities

In a combination of her father and mother's powers, Sophie was a “time-shifter” capable of teleporting herself through time as well as universes. She also had more refined temporal abilities, including locally freezing time by drawing blue, glowing runes in the air and travelling through meta-time (although, as a child, she needed Tiny Thymon's help to achieve this). She had also inherited Thymon's eldritch voice, making her words have a particular resonance with reality; unable to properly control her ability to speak things into existence, the child version of Sophie mostly communicated in sign language, but, with an effort of concentration, she was occasionally able to speak aloud without causing any supenatural events, or while focusing the power well enough to actually leverage this power for a useful purpose. (PROSE: Family Business)

Biography

Conception and birth

Sophie was conceived by Lord Thymon and Jenny Everywhere in Lord Thymon's house in the Cupid Homeworld. The two became aware of Jenny's pregnancy the following morning, when they were confronted by a time-shifted version of Sophie from a few years into the future. Her presence prompted them to choose the name they would give to her once she was properly born, taking “Everytime” from a mash-up of their names (“Everywhere” and “Thymon”), and “Sophie” from Jenny's maternal grandmother Sophie Stropcliffe. (PROSE: Family Business)

Early life

Over the first six years of her life or so, Sophie got to know many of her parents' friends, partners and relatives. She was particularly fond of “Aunt Pixie” (Pixie Pristine), in part because the fairy gave Sophie bubblegum every time she visited. She also had a good relationship with her “Cousin Tiny”, Lord Thymon's nephew and successor Tiny Thymon. She also got to know “Auntie Nowhere”, whom she deemed her least favourite aunt.

At some point, having been told by Jenny and Thymon that she would need that knowledge someday, she shifted back in meta-time in the 38167th Universe with Tiny's help to before Jenny's sister became Jenny Nowhere, thus finding out Nowhere's original name. (PROSE: Family Business)

Back to 2022

Eventually, a six- or seven-year-old Sophie shifted back in time to June 17th, 2022, appearing in the kitchen of Lord Thymon's house. Jenny and Thymon quickly figured out who she was, and, dipping into the Infinite for a few minutes to talk privately, they agreed on a name and settled on a plan to take opportunity of this event to introduce the time-shifted child to their respective loved ones in advance.

With Sophie agreeing to the plan, the trio visited Jenny's comet partner from the 659433585786388480th Universe, Comet Theta. Next up was Thymon's sibling Squire Psykha, who was much less pleased with the news, harshly judging their brother for neglecting his duties as an Embodiment in favour of “cavorting with the flesh”, and refusing to recognise Sophie as family. At Sophie's suggestion, they then visited another one of Jenny's partners, Pixie Pristine, in another universe. After visiting her in her dressing room, they attended and greatly enjoyed the fae-turned-pop-star's concert.

As Sophie was getting tired, Jenny and Thymon agreed to only visit one more person — Thymon's sister Lady Spatium — before heading home for the night. However, their shift was highjacked by Jenny Nowhere, who transported them to Nowhere Island in the 9768761143th Universe; she drew Sophie apart from Thymon and Jenny, directly imprisoning the girl in her Castle of Nowhere in the centre of the island while Jenny and Thymon fell into the literal Black Sea that surrounded it. Nowhere put Sophie in a bird-cage that she hoisted up to the ceiling in the middle of the Great Hall while she used Pixie Pristine's crystal ball to watch as Jenny and Thymon faced a series of trials and riddles across the Island, which reunited with them with Jimmy Anytime, Laura Drake and Jenny Over-There, all of whom Nowhere had also abducted.

Eventually, the rescuers made their way to the palace, where Nowhere revealed her plan to use a modified version of the Dimensional Consciousness Maximizer, now called the Identity Dispersal System, to forcibly connect Sophie to the deleterious telepathic networks of Jenny Nowheres, erasing her identity and turning her into just another Jenny Nowhere in revenge for the part Nowhere felt Jenny had played in turning her sister into Nowhere. Because this Sophie was the first incarnation of her in this epoch of the Multiverse, Nowhere hoped to poison the well at the source and cause all future Sophies to also become Nowhere.Nowhere activated the machine, but it did not work as expected because Sophie's self-confidence, bolstered by her parents' love throughout the day, far exceeded Nowhere's angst-ridden strength of character. While Nowhere's mind took over Sophie's body, Sophie's own mind, instead of being erased, took possession of Nowhere's vacant one. Breaking down crying due to the combination of her failure and of this new body's immature brain chemistry, Nowhere-in-Sophie's-body agreed to switch back after Sophie volunteered the knowledge her original name back to her.

During her time in the Nowhere psychic network, Sophie had realised the reason that none of the adults' powers were working right on the Island: Nowhere Island was itself an incarnation of Jenny Nowhere, despite not really being sentient in a conventional sense, and her aura was cancelling out theirs. Thus, they realised that they simply had to build a boat and row out far enough from the shores. After dropping Over-There, Jimmy and Laura home, Jenny and Thymon finally returned to the Cupid Homeworld with Sophie. Upset to have missed a day at the office, Thymon was shifted back in time to the morning by Sophie, who then hugged Jenny one more time before returning to her own time-zone. Jenny only dwelled on her bittersweetness at having to wait nine more months to see her again briefly, before her mind settled on a new adventure. (PROSE: Family Business)

Early teen years

As a teenager “a few years” older than Professor Awesome, (PROSE: How Jenny First Met…) who was around thirteen, (PROSE: Paying It Forward) Sophie went on a trip across the Multiverse seeking various people who knew incarnations of her mother and asking them to tell her about their first meetings with their respective Jennies. She started with the Laura Drake of Jenny Cornelius's universe, before visiting a Lord Grallyx who'd been imprisoned in an asteroid in a universe where “the Everywhere” won an interstellar war against him, getting him to talk to her by using her powers to reduce his waiting time to be released by one hundred years (though she simply achieved this by speeding time up from his subjective perspective, meaning he would get out no earlier from the perspective of the wider universe).

She then headed to the Parallax Universe to meet Professor Awesome, alias Eric, who had been driven to a Sukkot meal at the Emanuel temple by David Lowe. She found the teenaged mad scientist talking with Herbie Popnecker, whom she already knew as they got candy from the same supernatural place. Though confused at her general existence, Eric developed a mild crush on the older girl. She playfully challenged him to find a way to contact her even though she hadn't given him her number — having previously dropped hints that her mother was a version of Jenny Everywhere, but not told him outright. David Lowe saw her briefly when he came to pick Eric up; though he could tell she was someone special, he had never seen her before, as he told Eric on the way home. (PROSE: How Jenny First Met…)

The Sophiad

Some time later Eric had an accident with an explosive left behind by a careless visitor during one of Jenny’s adventures, and at exactly the right time Sophie reappeared to give him a magical healing lollipop of the kind Herbie Popnecker enjoyed, mentioning in passing, “You can’t get them around here.” She then told him she didn’t think she should be there yet, gave him a plush toy to remember her by, and shifted away. (PROSE: Preludes and Knick-knacks)

Back at home, she concealed the remaining two magical lollipops where only she or a Thymon could easily get to them, so that they would be ready when the time was right for Eric to eat them. (PROSE: Treat Counting)

Sometime after this she would hear from her cousin that Eric had built a shift engine and left his universe, but had been returned home safely. (PROSE: The Doll’s Source)

Sophie went to a Norse Althing to talk to a respected skald and seer there, in hopes of finding hints about Eric’s future without conventional prophecy. While there were sagas featuring “Erick the Mortal Blooded, cleverest of his generation” none were particularly useful to her, though many did include some interaction with the “Princess of Ages, daughter of the Lord of the Turning of Seasons.” This conversation was interrupted when she felt someone else shift into the universe nearby. (PROSE: Session of Mystics)

The other visitor turned out to be familiar to her, leading to the next tale.

One day Eric came home to a letter on his door from Sophie, inviting him to meet her elsewhere in the city early in the morning the next day. When he got off the bus she took him to a nearby park where she had concealed a peculiar dimensional transport, which she explained she couldn’t take home or leave unguarded – so she planned to blow it up! She enlisted his help to rig up a time delay mechanism to make the machine shift to another dimension after they had gotten out, and then set off some dynamite. After doing this, they had all day to spend together. (PROSE: A Game of Two)
