Fourth Wall Awareness was one umbrella term for the ability of some individuals to perceive that what was real to them in their own universe was actually fiction on another level of reality.

Jenny Everywhere

Several instances of Jenny Everywhere have shown or hinted that they know they are fictional characters.
