* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: While Diana is probably the most irritable member of the Athena Club, she is genuinely hurt when she learns that the Athena Club has an inside joke policy of "Don't Wake Diana" which is a way to leave her out of things. Instead of cursing them out or being petulant, the Diana commenting on the story runs away from the room Catherine's writing from and is very upset with Catherine for a good chunk of the rest of the commentary.



* PutOnABus: Hyde plays no part in SMMG, despite having moved into Castle Frankenstein and he's still probably doing experiments.

* EvilCannotComprehendGood: It doesn't even seem to cross Helen Raymond's mind that Alice might not ''like'' to see Dr. Watson or the Baker Street boys shot at, her Athena Club friends menaced, or her country betrayed and overthrown. Likewise, she takes it for granted that Alice must've hated being a maid, a job the girl was quite content with.

[[spoiler: Surprisingly subverted with Moriarty halfway through the novel when he gets completely blindsided by Helen Raymond and Margaret Trelawny and murdered by Queen Tera.]]
