[[The Man in Grey (925th Universe)|The Man in Grey]] originally worked for the proto-M.F.S. as an employee, in the position which would eventually go to [[Jenny Over-There (925th Universe)|Jenny Over-There]]. After about a month, the Man in Grey's original, female boss was removed from office and the [[Great Higher-Up]]s promoted him in her place. ([[PROSE]]: [[Open Sourcing (short story)|''Open Sourcing'' (2024 reedit)]]) He soon discovered that a Welsh woman called Jenny Over-There had gained the ability to know where anything in the world was located; paying her to let him run some studies, he quickly discovered that she could even locate anything in [[the Multiverse]]. Deeming her ideal, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Tribulations of Jenny Over-There (short story)|The Tribulations of Jenny Over-There]]'') he hired her after a wholly perfunctory job interview.

The [[M.F.S. office|original office]] was located in [[Wales]]. Eventually, the Great Higher-Ups had the Man in Grey hire more employees and open up a branch in [[Scotland]], with the Man in Grey reluctantly interviewing 193 [[Copyright|uncopyrighted]] candidates and eventually narrowing them down to [[Talbot Molossus]], [[the Hydrant]], [[0000-8888888]] and [[Doctor Know-It-All (925th Universe)|Doctor Know-It-All]]. Of his own accord, the Man in Grey also hired an intern for the Welsh office, with Jenny recommending [[Dynamite Thor (Fox universe)|Dynamite Thor]] for the position. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Open Sourcing (short story)|Open Sourcing]]'') The [[M.F.S. Scottish Division]] was given headquarters in [[Crieff]], and Talbot emerged as its leader.
