Did You Know?
Braces, or suspenders, were almost universally worn due to the high cut of men's trousers. Belts did not become common until the 1920s. — MJ
Had it really come to this? Passing Charles Macmillan back and forth like an upright booby prize?

ACAB | REP ANY | CHAOS

What: The Dragons Take London (OOC only, this isn't an IC-planned event)
Who: anyone
Cost: your dignity, perhaps a limb
Where: It starts in a magical neighborhood in London but chaos could also spill into Muggle London and need to be contained by Ministry folks
Why: Chaos <3
When: 30 June 1893, after everyone at Jewell has gone home for the day. Could stretch into the following weekend.

After the successful launch of their existing dragon-themed liquors, Jewell decided to stop tinkering around with the "cocktails give you wings" version. The existing product was moved from their warehouse to the alleyway next to their warehouse in preparation for someone hauling it away and safely disposing of it the following week, but when word got out that there were dozens of barrels of liquor just sitting there, entirely unsecured, the hard working folks of London decided to help themselves to some drinks. Soon, drunken revelers were passing conjured pint glasses full of experimental liquor into the hands of anyone happening by.

The results are unpredictable. Some may finish a glass without experiencing any effects. Some will begin to fly — uncontrollably, in all directions, up into the atmosphere if not stopped! Some will acquire dragon wings connecting their arms to their torsos (and likely tearing their clothes in the process). Some may experience some other bits of "dragon anatomy" such as eyes changing to see a wider spectrum of colors than humans can or teeth in multiple rows, etc. They're generally not "cool" or "pretty" alterations which was why this liquor didn't make the cut for continued refinement and eventual sale.

Results last longer the more you've had to drink, and timelines for return to normal are unpredictable, but everyone changed by dragon liquor will eventually return to themselves. Those who wish for speedier returns can work with the Ministry, who will arrive at some point to perform crowd control and try to keep any human-dragon hybrids confined to the magical areas of London.
