When questioned about the potential for self-interest, she acknowledged the issue but dismissed it as an inherent part of democracy, pointing out that her opponents refused to even admit such a reality.<ref>[https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Ask_F.F._Gebrandt_if_the_Mayorship_wouldn%E2%80%99t_be_a_conflict_of_interest Ask F.F.

When questioned at the [[Fruits of the Zee Festival]] about her involvement in the incident, Gebrandt deflected responsibility, blaming the Empress' intervention as discreetly as possible to avoid legal trouble.<ref>[https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Listen_for_F.F.%27s_answer Listen for F.F.'s answer, ''Fallen London''] ''"It is regrettable that the museum's opening has been tarnished in this manner, but the events in question had very little to do with the Exhibition itself, being largely perpetuated by" – she pulls herself back from the brink of treason – "third parties, and solved by science and experimentation.

However, the museum’s opening was marked by unforeseen consequences. Under the directive of The Empress, Gebrandt had constructed a time machine of sorts,<ref>Watch as Gebrandt explains her machine, Fallen London </ref> designed to summon an apparition of the Consort. When the machine overloaded, she attempted to intervene but was stopped by the Empress.<ref>[https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Watch,_yet_more_furtively Watch, yet more furtively, ''Fallen London'']</ref> The resulting malfunction led to the sudden appearance of Second City structures in London and unleashed "ushabtiu"—animated stone constructs—throughout the city, causing widespread chaos.<ref>[https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/A_Careful_Stroll_Around_the_Neighbourhood A Careful Stroll Around the Neighbourhood, ''Fallen London'']</ref> Gebrandt quickly took control of the situation, calling upon the citizenry to assist in resolving the crisis.<ref>[https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Hear_her_call_to_action Hear her call to action, ''Fallen London''] ''"[…] one must make the obvious connection to the emergence of prelapsarian architecture around London."''
 
''[…] "To fight this new menace, we must understand it. […] I have some ideas.

She has founded a "church," though it functions more as a gathering place for academics rather than a site of worship.<ref>[https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Make_a_substantial_donation_to_F.F._Gebrandt%27s_church Make a substantial donation to F.F. Gebrandt's church, ''Fallen London'']
 
''"It's more like a university common room than a vicarage. But Mrs Gebrandt is pleased at your generosity. Would you like to assist with a small experiment?"''

Wonder where he is now."''</ref> Could he be an old flame?
 
Her laboratory, located on the outskirts of the city, is infamous for its acrid aroma. There, she conducts experiments and meets with those who pique her interest.<ref>[https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/F.F._Gebrandt_and_You F.F. Gebrandt and You, ''Fallen London''] ''"You call upon Mrs F.F. Gebrandt at her acrid-smelling laboratory on the outskirts of the city."''</ref> Gebrandt used to work with Mr Wines, but has since become independent.<ref>[https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Tell_her_everything Tell her everything, ''Fallen London''] ''"F.F. Gebrandt […] confides that she parted ways with Mr Wines […]. She also offers a secret: anything Mr Wines sells as 'absinthe' is likely no such thing. It is its code for products that are harmful to their drinkers."''</ref> [[The Masters of the Bazaar]] still bother her for her expertise however. She dislikes the Masters.<ref>[https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Do_the_bidding_of_Mr_Wines Do the bidding of Mr Wines, Fallen London] "Mr Wines, the Master of the Bazaar who deals in drinks and entertainment, has asked after the health and happiness of Mrs Gebrandt. However, it also wants her to share her scientific advances with the Masters."
 
"You and F.F. Gebrandt are getting along famously until the Masters are mentioned. She has no kind words for them, […] describes them in terms uncommonly heard from a lady. You won't advance Mr Wines' cause today, but you could always call again later."</ref> IIt is implied that her rapid rise to prominence was due to their backing, but their coercion—particularly in forcing her to develop a love potion (which she abhorred and deliberately sabotaged)—led to her departure.<ref>[https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Reach_into_a_secret_memory_of_F.F._Gebrandt Reach into a secret memory of F.F.

''In a letter to 'Cuddy', F.F. responds: '[…] you are right about the ineffectiveness of my "Patented Love Potion". Have you not considered that this might be deliberate? […]''
 
''[…] if you're calling me an "old fraud", you better be calling me "old" to my face.'"''</ref> Her advice column was conceived as a response to this event.
 
Gebrandt harbors a disdain for Parabola, viewing it as antithetical to scientific principles. Consequently, her Parabolan reflection remains identical to her real self.<ref>[https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/Employ_the_Reflection_of_F.F._Gebrandt Employ the Reflection of F.F. Gebrandt, ''Fallen London''] ''"F.F. Gebrandt – You can't for the life of you tell how her reflection is unlike herself; it is uncanny – vibrates with impatience. She doesn't like Parabola one bit.''
 
''Measurements and data are slippery in Parabola. Weights shift. Distances squirm. […]"''</ref>
 
Her dedication to scientific progress is encapsulated in her belief that "science is a team pursuit." She rejects the notion of the lone genius, advocating instead for collaboration as the true driver of societal advancement.<ref>[https://fallenlondon.wiki/wiki/F.F._Gebrandt_(Card) F.F. Gebrandt (Card), ''Fallen London''] ''"[…] F.F. is […] answering the more complex questions […]. Where her supporters are, so is she.''
 
''"Science is a team pursuit," she says. "The lone genius nonsense is exactly that. We can only advance science, and thus society, together."''</ref>
 
Her engagement with the city extends beyond academia.
