Plot

Some time after encountering Sophie Everytime, Professor Awesome was at home when he encountered his neighbor Jenny Everywhere with an octopus on her shoulder. Jenny explained that she was shifting over to another universe briefly because Brianna needed her for her “amazing superpowers of breathing air and walking on land.” As they shifted out they dropped something which turned out to be explosive.

As Eric lay on the ground, badly hurt, Sophie appeared beside him. She was distressed at his injuries briefly but then a second Sophie shifted in with future knowledge and magical lollipops of the kind Herbie Popnecker consumed. The other Sophie brought the first up to speed and shifted out, and the remaining Sophie unwrapped a lollipop for Eric.

When he woke up he was uninjured. They talked briefly and Sophie told him she didn’t think she should in his universe yet but would be back later. She gave him a strange plush toy and shifted away. Eric examined the plushy without knowing what it was supposed to represent, but was happy that she would return.
