Out of all of the examples the repercussion one seemed the most detrimental and desperate but in fact the drinks and food became the most negatively impactful. So as such, there were going to be compromises: no more spending on unnecessary resources such as exotic drinks and food, recycling became Jekyll’s new favourite word and Lodgers were told to be extremely careful with dangerous activities or repercussions would be taken place - such as cutting their budgets.
Not only did the society have a few sponsors, they were also unreliable, if the exhibition failed then so did the society as a few dances and compliments only got so far until people realised where their money was flowing. Whether it be more supplies for a presentation, new medicinals for Frankenstein’s illness or the overall money needed for advertisement and decor, money was needed and was running out fast. This was speculated until Jekyll couldn’t afford more coffee.Īs the exhibition grew to a near and Dr Frankenstein herself had showed up, expenses sky rocketed.
Never once was he seen playing with fire, attempting to controll electricity or trying to make a cat invisible, so most just assumed he had given up the whole shtick of an actual rogue scientist and had now converted to tea parties and social gatherings - some even gossiped that Jekyll was never a rogue scientist at all! This is special information considering this is how most of the inhabitants of the society viewed Jekyll a gentleman. Most of the Lodgers didn’t especially care much about what new financial problem had stricken Jekyll at any time, whether it be if someone needed more resources for an experiment or if resources were needed because a piece of the building had mysteriously exploded - as long as the society was kept afloat and so did Jekyll himself, the world still turned for the Lodgers. On a normal day, the doctor would be seen drowning in mountains upon mountains of paperwork and coffee or seen busying across the halls muttering to himself in a dash to attend to whatever endeavour was needed. This meant the most experimenting Jekyll did on a daily basis was seeing how much sleep was needed to function properly.
Similar to the rest of the crazy menagerie of the society - also known as the Lodgers - Dr Jekyll was also a fellow rogue scientist who craved to unveil the unknown using abnormal means but compared to the rest: he’d rather be perceived as a gentleman. It was very easy to forget that Dr Jekyll was also in fact a rogue scientist.
