Jenny Everywhere: Difference between revisions

At an unknown point relative to these events, Genevieve began travelling with [[Prince Guy]], who she thought might in fact be her “true love”, although she was not sure. Approximately one month after an adventure involving [[gnome wrestling]], Guy and his horse were turned into pigs by the [[Witch of the Blue Hills]]. Genevieve, Willow and Wu attempted to use the dream spinner to travel to a distant “dreamland” to find [[Mordorak of the Nine Noses]], a wizard who could allegedly perform “restorations” from such curses. However, the dream spinner broke down, landing her in the universe of the Jenny who'd previously helped her escape the Baron. Having materialised close to the home of her counterpart, she was admitted into her apartment by Jenny's roommate [[Kim (Parallax)|Kim]], and explained her predicament to the two.  After Jenny got [[Professor Awesome#Kim and Jenny's neighbour|Professor Awesome]] to fix the ship, Genevieve, Wu and Willow shared some pastrami sandwiches with the local Jenny and her friends before leaving once again to continue their quest.  ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Pit Stop (novel)|Pit Stop]]'')

She had a semi-regular job as a music critic, being, as she put it, “paid to tell bands that they suck[ed]”. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Camera Shy (short story)|Camera Shy]]'') Her reviews were edited by a man called [[Haroun the Thrice Cursed|Haroun]] and published by [[Stone]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Morning After (novel)|Morning After]]'') This Jenny was friends ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Parallax (short story)|Parallax]]'') and roommates ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Camera Shy (short story)|Camera Shy]]'') with the enigmatic [[Kim]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Parallax (short story)|Parallax]]'', ''[[Camera Shy (short story)|Camera Shy]]'') Her circle of acquaintances included several other odd characters including preteen mad scientist “[[Professor Awesome#Kim and Jenny's neighbour|Professor Awesome]]”, or Eric, and the also mysterious [[David Lowe]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Misunderstandings (short story)|Misunderstandings]]'', etc.)

Jenny and [[Kim]] defeated [[the Vampire King]] when he “came to town” one year, saving at least one captured bystander, [[Ulysses Dumas]], from his dungeon. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Camera Shy (short story)|Camera Shy]]'')

Jenny, [[Kim (Parallax)|Kim]] and three male friends of theirs once partied a bar together. However, a version of [[Jenny Nowhere#Killed by a dinosaur|Jenny Nowhere]], whom this Jenny had never encountered in any form, slipped something in her beer which forced her and Kim to rush to the bathroom, where Nowhere confronted them. She revealed herself as originally a version of Jenny Everywhere who had become disconnected from the wider telepathic network. To Everywhere's horror, she viewed it as a liberation which she planned to “share” with her, willing or not.  

The year after the defeat of [[the Vampire King]], Jenny had to “stay up until dawn” to save the Internet from the [[Eye of Tripoli]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Camera Shy (short story)|Camera Shy]]'', ''[[Paying It Forward (novel)|Paying It Forward]]'') The next morning, she was woken up by a phone callf rom [[Ulysses Dumas]], the musician she'd saved from the Vampire King, who said he had an “unusual” problem which he hoped she could help him deal with. She arranged to meet him the following night at the [[Faux Fur End]]. There, she learned from Dumas that he had been turned into a [[vampire]] himself; although he had mostly made his peace with it, he wondered how he could continue his musical career when cameras could often not detect him (due to vampires' invisibility in mirrors). Before she could think of a solution, she was called away on another adventurer: it was “raining frogs at the mosque again”. She arranged to meet Dumas again a few days later, and, this time, brought [[Kim (Parallax)|Kim]], who was able to offer a solution to his problem. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Camera Shy (short story)|Camera Shy]]'')

After Jenny went home, [[#Genevieve, Princess of Everywhere|Princess Genevieve]], one of the Jennies she'd helped and who had attempted at the afterparty, dropped in at her apartment (although the door was actually answered by [[Kim (Parallax)|Kim]], as Jenny herself was taking a shower at the time). It quickly surfaced that Genevieve, not possessing reliable [[shift]]ing powers of her own, had come here using a [[dream spinner]] which had a broken down as she was on her way to another, more distant cosmos. Jenny got Eric to fix the device, allowing her other self and her companions [[Wu (Pit Stop)|Wu]] and [[Willow (Pit Stop)|Willow]] to continue on with their journeys. Immediately afterward, however, a new adventure began as [[Angel (Pit Stop)|an Angel]] appeared in the parking lot with much fracas. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Pit Stop (novel)|Pit Stop]]'')

At some point in the winter, Jenny began dating someone who turned out to be the lost [[Prince of the Lizard Kingdoms]], for which reason the relationship did not work out.  [[Mole Person|Mole People]] attacked the apartment building from the basement, looking for the Prince. Jenny was initially much aggrieved by this turn of events, but had gotten over it by the time [[Professor Awesome#Kim and Jenny's neighbour|Eric]] came to her and [[Kim (Parallax)|Kim]] one afternoon, feeling upset about a row he'd had at school with a [[Judy (Misunderstandings)|classmate]]. Like Kim, Jenny initially got the impression that Eric had had a crush on the girl and been disappointed, and tried to give her advice on the matter, although she couldn't help but bring up the rather improbable circumstances of her last break-up, derailing the conversation somewhat. Eventually, however, she realised the misapprehension. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Misunderstandings (short story)|Misunderstandings]]'')

At some point, Jenny visited a version of [[Mars]] in [[Universe A (Jenny Everywhere and the Eye of Argon)|another universe]]. She brought back some money from there, as well as a kind of Martian bread which she and [[Kim]] agreed was delicious. A month later, when she ran out of sourdough while baking bread at home, Kim reminded her of her Martian escapade and she impulsively decided to [[shift]] back there to buy some ingredients from them. Instead, however, she found herself materialising in a fantasy world called [[Ecord]], which spontaneously altered her outfit and behaviour into something fitting its narrative, putting her in the (skimpy) clothes and mindset of a clichéd barbarian adventuress.  

While trying to track down DVDs of Season 3 of an anime show about herself called ''[[Bugendai no Jenī no Itarutokoro]]'', Jenny [[shift]]ed to a [[Universe (I Found Him On The Internet)|nearby universe]] to attend the [[Jiujinshan anime con]]. However, she found that it was “being held up by some industry A.I.s on strike wanting better working condition”. Somewhere along the way, she picked up a new sidekick in the form of a [[Troll (I Found Him On The Internet)|literal Internet troll]]. Bringing him back with her, she hopped back to her home universe and apartment in order to pick up the [[Robot Toaster]], intending to bring him back to the anime con, to have him infiltrate the A.I.s' cybernetic fortress, and then, once they accepted him, to have him act as a “spokes-robot” to permit fair negotiations between the A.I.s and humans. Tapping into the computer skills of some of her close alternates, Jenny successfully tinkered with the Robot Toaster to bring it out of “pet” mode and into “cyber-intrusion” mode, before heading off with the Toaser and the Troll — though not before explaining all of this to a rather confused [[Kim]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[I Found Him On The Internet (short story)|I Found Him On The Internet]]'')

Jenny once found flyers advertising a night-time ritual to “SUMMUN STAAN”. Despite the incompetence implied by the typo-ridden flyer, Jenny resolved to observe the meeting from afar to ensure they did not stumble into successfully summoning anything truly dangerous. While making her way to the disused comic shop where the cultists had made their lair, Jenny bumped into [[Kim]], who asked to know what she was up to, and ended up helping her break in. All their worries proved to be for naught: although the cultists succeeded in summoning the object of their worship, it was not [[The Devil#Kim's universe|Satan]], as they'd mistakenly assumed, but the harmless [[Stan Lee|Stan]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Fragment: The Summoning (short story)|Fragment: The Summoning]]'')

This version of Jenny was one of the ones ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Absquatulation of Jenny Everywhere (short story)|The Absquatulation of Jenny Everywhere]]'') who disappeared for a little without warning, having been “zapped off” to a [[secret realm beyond Time]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Disappearance of Jenny Everywhere (short story)|The Disappearance of Jenny Everywhere]]'') There, she and many other Jennies “re-synchronised with [themselves]”, readjusting their [[shift]]ing powers and mental network after the last few millennia or millions' worth of entanglements and glitches. She reamterialised in her apartment in mid-air over the coffee table, to find that [[David Lowe|David]] and [[Professor Awesome#Kim and Jenny's neighbour|Eric]] had been very worried about her disappearance, going through the trouble of waking [[Kim]] up in the middle of the day and making her drink some of a bottle of Jenny's own blood that she kept in a secret cupboard for emergencies.
