He also got a letter of recommendation from [[Dorian Gray]], before finally heading off to the [[Diggs estate]] in the [[Land of Oz]], where the first Council meeting was to be held. | ||
After bumping into [[Professor Wogglebug (925th Universe)|Professor Wogglebug]] at the entrance, he set down his suitcase containing the sponsorship deals and letter from Dorian Gray and entered the Councilchamber. Unbeknownst to him, it was found by [[Oscar Diggs]], who mistook it for his own suitcase and carried it away. Meanwhile, the meeting was a complete failure due to his poor choice of sponsors; bad blood between Dorian Gray and [[Atlas the Traveller]] rendered his letter of recommendation actively unhelpful, and as for the sponsorship deals, Dionysus boycotted the Council when he learned that [[Stardust the Super-Wizard]] had been invited as the Super Besties' representative only for Stardust himself not to bother to show up, and the remaining members of the Council reacted violently to the identities of the representatives of DollarGraveClub — [[Dracula#At DollarGraveClub|Dracula]], [[Carmilla#At DollarGraveClub|Carmilla]], [[Ruthven#At DollarGraveClub|Lord Ruthven]] and [[Varney#At DollarGraveClub|Mr Varney]].

The Man in Grey returned to the M.F.S. office to tell Thor and [[Jenny Over-There (925th Universe)|Jenny Over-There]] to cancel all Pride theming and shred the flyers he'd printed, before heading off to sulk. A week or so later, he found himself in “the most heterosexual bar” he could find, having headed there to wallow. He ended up bumping into Wogglebug, who informed him that Jenny and Thor had set up a Pride party of their own at [[Professor Helvetius's Convenient Pride Decorations Shop]] using the decorations they'd bought to decorate the M.F.S. office prior to his counter-order. He managed to convince him to attend.
