=== Meeting the Man in Gray === | === Meeting the Man in Gray === | ||
One day, while on his way out to get some lunch for himself and Jenny, Thor found himself face-to-face with a visitor, something the M.F.S. got excessively few of. He was [[the Man in Gray]], a counterpart of [[the Man in Grey (925th Universe)|the Man in Grey]] from a [[Universe 925-B|nearby universe]] who wanted to discuss the Man in Grey's lack of a [[Talisman of Restriction]] with him. Thor was oblivious to the difference between them, unlike Jenny, who informed the visitor that the Man in Grey was out. Telling her to inform the Man in Grey that he would return, the Man in Gray left with no further fuss.

=== Encounter with Miss Erewhon === | |||
Some time between the introduction of the [[Therapy Prism]]s, Thor received one by mistake and installed it in [[Dynamite Thor's Secret Headquarters|his Secret Headquarters]] as a piece of decoration. A few days later, he was surprised by a visit to said Headquarters by a woman going by [[Miss Erehwon]], whom he had apparently met and trusted before, not realising [[Jenny Nowhere|who she obviously was]]; in this case, Erehwon had arrived aboard a [[Msis Erehwon's TARDIS|timeship which had disguised itself as a second black obelisk]]. She set him a mission of “saving” [[Kablamazon]] from [[Lord Grallyx (925th Universe)|Lord Grallyx]], who she claimed had taken it over, and also his greatest “assassin”, none other than [[Jenny Everywhere (925th Universe)|Jenny Everywhere]]. Thor blithely accepted her account of events and agreed to take on the “heroic mission” in exchange for a rare case of [[Italy|Italian]] [[World War II]] hand-grenades she had acquired for him. After Thor briefly stumbled into the oddly pitch-black interior of her ship then got out again, she departed while he had his back turned; distracted by his new toys, Thor seemed to immediately forget the encounter, though he did loosely remember the misguided mission and seemed intent on attempting to enact it.

=== Day off === | === Day off === | ||
Less than a week later, as these events coincided with the fall of Kablamazon a week after the introduction of the [[Therapy Prism]]s, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Annals of the Jen: One Year of Jenny Over-There (novel)|Annals of the Jen: One Year of Jenny Over-There]]'': ''[[First-Class Delivery (short story)|First-Class Delivery]]'') around April 2023, Peter decided to take a day off from his work at the [[M.F.S. office]]. As he was not “quite sure how to organise one”, he decided to fall back on “what he would do back when he was the CEO of the [[Peter Thor Mining Company]]: he just didn’t show up and hoped the others knew what was going on”. He made up his mind to spend the day on stopping crime as Dynamite Thor, and drove to [[Knighton]] with [[Glenda Sif]] for the purpose. After he left her a [[Thor Signaller]], she saw him off, and he decided to phone the [[M.F.S. (925th Universe)|M.F.S.]] as a customer, landing on the [[M.F.S. Scottish Division|Scottish Division]]. There, [[Tetra-None Hepta-Oct (925th Universe)|Tetra-None Hepta-Oct]] was clever enough to ascertain how Thor would deal with crime, with him demonstrating his explosion-based form of retribution on an unfortunate pondful of ducks he suspected of theft. As a result, Tetra decided to tell him that there was no longer any crime anywhere on the planet. This plunged Thor into a brief bout of existential depression until he encountered [[Lady Satan (925th Universe)|Lady Satan]], who, coming to the same realisation as Tetra, backed up her story about there no longer being any crime in the universe, but convinced Peter that this was the well-earned ''result'' of his deterrence efforts, successfully cheering him up.
