The Cat Came Back

Located on the River Thames, London has been a major settlement for two millennia. The low-income borough of Lambeth has been largely taken over by London's mutant population and is now known as Mutant Town.

Allison had apparently decided to splurge a little in booking their hotel. "Couldn't quite bring myself to rent one of the the river view rooms," she said as the staff took charge of their luggage, "But figured if we want to see the river, we can go for a walk."

"Think it's the first time someone's rode up on motorbike?" She smirks.

"At this place? Probably not," she said. "Though I doubt they'd make a fuss even if it was."

"Yes, they are," Allison said as they checked in and were escorted up to their room. The suite was nice with plenty of comforts. She tipped the attendant after he'd brought in their luggage, such as it was, and closed the door behind him. "Suitable?"

"There is no way you can say that and not make it sound like innuendo," she chuckles.

"That also sounds like innuendo," Allison said with a laugh. "Want to get changed and go for a walk or would like to get dinner first?"

"Dinner it is then. There's several good restaurants in the area or we could order in if you've had enough of the outside world."

"You have a devious mind. I want to like it, but it means not filching off your plate, so I'm torn." She came back in and flopped into one of the chairs.

"The prawns in garlic butter with linguine sound good," she says, glancing over to gauge the filch potential in Allison's expression.
