Title: Dragon in the Smoke, Part I

I'm watching the street gangs in the alley below. It's an interesting microcosm of society played out before me in --

DIVEBOMB!

Oh, Alice is at it again?

Yes, and I don't think she'll believe either of us are investigators, so make yourself useful.

What time of year is it? Autumn

Alice, 8 disguise as an extremely green youth who has never been in this sort of establishment before.

You know, while I am sure your cousin wouldn't believe me, I am happy that I am not contributing to your delinquency.

You most certainly are!

Write Up

I believe our story opened at Almacks, where there was a ball in progress. Alice's Martian psychic power revealed to her that Mrs. Doyle was in great distress, worrying about her children. She tried to comfort the woman, who was surprised, but worried enough to want someone to talk to.

Alice's cousin, Winston, disapproved. Indeed, that was his function in the game, to be an Adversary who Disapproves and must be overcome. But, this got modified over time as we realized a few things.
