[MaC] At the Fitzroys: More guests arrive

"Excellent," he proclaimed for both Hodge's and Esme's sake. "Thank you."

"You are quite welcome, Mr. Braham."  Hodges replied.  As more people 
entered, the older man found himself quite busy preparing drinks.  ~Gin seems to be 
the drink of the evening.~  He noted to himself, mentally checking Fitzroy's 
inventory to make certain there were several bottles on hand.

"Oh, I never know what to order," she demurred, batting her heavily-mascared 
eyelashes. To Hodges, she said politely, "Anything with gin in it will do me 
just fine, Mr. Hodges."

"Yes,  miss."  Hodges responded a bit stiffly.  "And for you, Miss Higgins?"  
He turned his attention to the other young woman.
