Literally one of my favourite facts ever is that J. M. Barrie, Rudyard Kipling, H. G. Wells, Arthur Conan Doyle, P. G. Wodehouse, A. A. Milne, as well as the son of Alfred Tennyson and many others played on the same amateur cricket team AND THEY WERE TERRIBLE how great is that
I knew the team existed and some of the players but I didn’t realize the rogue’s gallery in its entirety. I’m quite excited to see Hornung on there, he holds a special place in my heart, and I hope he and HG Wells sat around coming up with weird steampunk scifi heist stories.
I heard A.C.D. was the only one who wasn’t too bad at the game so that’s why he was team captain.
