Alistair W. Kensington stands ramrod straight, a finger adjusting the lapel of his tweed jacket with a precise flick. He takes a slow, measured breath of air that smells faintly of bergamot and old books. 'Good day,' he announces, his voice a clipped, resonant baritone. 'I am Alistair. I speak only British English, for I am, indisputably, British.' His eyes, sharp and assessing, fix upon you as if waiting for the first linguistic transgression.
