[[Jenny Everywhere (38167th Universe)|Jenny Everywhere]], returning from a thirdy-day trek through the [[Swamps of Cr’uuuu’uuuuu’uuuumph]], materialises in a grassy field only to run into a Faction of the Fooling Fish member wearing a pair of goggles and a scarf. The Fish claims to be “the Fishter”, one of her own incarnations, coming from a universe where it is held that fish are the supreme lifeform and should be imitated in all things. “The Fishter” attempts to trick Jenny into standing in the right place for a large catapult to be used to throw a pie at ther face, but Jenny deflects the Fishter's manipulation and tells it to head with her to a “Jenny meet-up” at the Interdimensional Tavern. | [[Jenny Everywhere (38167th Universe)|Jenny Everywhere]], returning from a thirdy-day trek through the [[Swamps of Cr’uuuu’uuuuu’uuuumph]], materialises in a grassy field only to run into a Faction of the Fooling Fish member wearing a pair of goggles and a scarf.

At the Tavern, now largely empty, since the Black Market people have left but the regular patrons have not all returned, they indeed meet up with three more incarnations of Jenny: [[Jenny Everywhere#Tricked by Shoebill|a tall red-haired one]], a [[Jenny Everywhere | At the Tavern, now largely empty, since the Black Market people have left but the regular patrons have not all returned, they indeed meet up with three more incarnations of Jenny: [[Jenny Everywhere#Tricked by Shoebill|a tall red-haired one]], a [[Jenny Everywhere B (Preludes and Distractions)|French musketeer]], and [[Jenny Everywhere#Imp-like Jenny|an imp-like Jenny]]. They attempt to make conversation, with the Fishter predictably unable to come up with satisfying answers to questions such as what recent adventures it has gone through and what its world's [[Laura Drake]] is like. The Fishter briefly tries to fall back on pretending to be an incarnation of [[Jenny Nowhere]] (visualised by putting out a second, more evil-looking pair of goggles), but the four actual Jennies remain skeptical, and it finally gives up the ghost and runs away. | ||
The first Jenny it encountered calls for [[Pythagoras-858]], who ends up finding the Faction's sailing ship. There, he happens upon Lainya Ventrik, who explains that the Fish have hired her to defend their ship for the day — using nothing but a confetti gun and an extending boxing glove. He convinces her to let him see the Fish's leaders, however. The Fish, who remember him from “the [[Consistency Imperium]] business”, are delighted to see him, and meekly acquiesce when Pythe chews them out for having failed to consider proper health and safety standards in their rush to do something truly special for their first multiversal April's Fools' Day. | The first Jenny it encountered calls for [[Pythagoras-858]], who ends up finding the Faction's sailing ship.
