John Dee, Jenny Everywhere: Round One was a short Jenny Everywhere story written by Woody Evans (thus potentially being the first Jenny Everywhere story penned by a somewhat established professional fiction writer).

As the title suggested, it featured Jenny Everywhere coming across a version of the infamous 16th-century occultist John Dee, depicted here is an immortal still alive in a vague present-day setting. The story, written in a somewhat psychedelic style, featured some NSFW elements.

Plot

Relaxing at a club in Stoke-on-Trent where he is attempting to learn some modern dances alongside his friend Ed Kelley, the immortal Renaissance magus John Dee comes across a Jenny Everywhere. As he begins to dance with her, however, she (being, of course, Jenny Everywhere) recognises him as a villain and draws away. Losing him in the crowd, she attempts to use nanites to disguise herself, but can only do her face; he recognises her by her hips and makes to attack her. To counter this, Jenny summons six angels by calling out their names in Enochian, and figurative hell breaks loose in the dance club. In the confusion, Jenny finally makes her exit, catching a cab to Keele, intending to see an old friend about “a late-night banishing rite”.
