THE QUICK + DIRTY : a brief ( ish ) rundown of what a generated anomaly has been up to since her episode.
after throwing herself in front of the doctor to save his life, jenny seems to die and is taken off to be prepared for burial. the doctor leaves before the funeral. but jenny, having not known regeneration was possible + through the shock of being shot, was having a delayed regeneration. she wakes up, high off regenerative energy, and steals the rocket the messalinians had used to get to the planet in the first place. she doesn't know where she's going, exactly, she just wants to see the universe - and perhaps some instinctual knowledge she might need to get away.
she doesn't get far between the engines on the rocket begin to give out - and so does she. overwhelmed with the pain and just . . . chaos of regeneration, jenny attempts a crash landing on a remote moon and regenerates fully.
it's so important to note that this first regeneration + the moments after are all extremely traumatic for jenny. she had no idea that this was even a thing she could do, not to mention it came after an already traumatic event of her dying. overall she is not having a fun time, mentally, and is a bit fearful of "it" ( she doesn't even have the word for it ) happening again.
she finds a way off the moon which turns out to be a kind of space pirate hidey-hole and begins a brief career as a pirate. the adventure is fun, but somehow she ends up inciting a mutiny. whoops!
there are a number of other adventures interspersed after this and before her first visit to earth: freeing neglected animals from a space zoo, getting arrested a handful of times - alright, more than a handful, accidentally ending up in a coliseum-esque fight to the death, getting expelled from three different universities, etc.
she wins a vortex manipulator in a poker bet and when the loser attacks her, she escapes aboard his ship. thus begins her attempts to add some extra flair to it, including the ability to travel in space as well as time.
this tinkering culminates in her first visit to earth - a miscalibration and some bad luck, she'll say. she crashes into the dumpster of a pub in yorkshire. one of the bartenders - a girl named charlotte, or chuck - watched it all happened, helped get her cleaned up. jenny'd found herself in the 1970s on accident. she ended up staying a year before she could figure out how to fix the vortex manipulator and when she did, she invited chuck along. she was her first love.
they would end up parting on . . . amicable, but still bittersweet terms later.
since then, jenny's taken up a couple jobs. she worked for UNIT, briefly, under strict conditions that the doctor not be informed ( they hadn't met again, yet, and given the way he'd reacted to her on messaline . . . she didn't want to take chances ) nor anyone else. she's been a mechanic, she's been a bounty hunter, et cetera.
my main verse isn't really strictly anywhere along this timeline . . . it could be anywhere, but will most often be after she's left chuck.
