I was worried about the Flea from Day 1. A lot of people were. He was definitely an antagonist, to me.

ARG grammar

Imbri: this is very difficult. ARGs are non-linear and have lots of characters. I am having a tough time imposing this structure. Can you give another example?

Krystyn: Naturally, in any story, some characters are more or less 'good'. I think the issue at stake is that it would be wrong to characterise the Flea as a key "enemy" in the ILB saga. You couldn't easily describe it as "The Fight Against The Flea" (or anything, perhaps?) in the way you could describe James Bond as "The Fight Against [insert villain of choice]"

My ARG grammar:

Part one: "WTF is going on?"
Part two: "OMG that's going on? We'd better do something about it!"
Part three: Situation resolved. Light refreshments served.
