What... what is this?

Dimitri Allen.

What do you mean by "doubles"?

[puzzlingchest]

The other Laytons, of course.

[whitecoathat.livejournal.com]

"Other" Laytons? ...Family?

[puzzlingchest]

No, the other versions of myself in this place. There's the younger one, the one with the monocle, the one with the mask, the one with both a Luke and a Clive from his world...

[whitecoathat.livejournal.com]

I don't understand this place...

[puzzlingchest]

I don't think anyone here does. You'll get used to it, though.

Oh, and while you're here - we're going to be having an election here, soon, to determine who will be the ruler of this place. I hope I might be able to count upon your vote?

[whitecoathat.livejournal.com]

You're holding an election? Who are the candidates? Aside from yourself, of course.

[puzzlingchest]

Ahh... myself, my male double with the monocle, and a version of Descole.

[whitecoathat.livejournal.com]

I don't think I'm familiar with this Descole.

Is voting compulsory? It seems to me that if you're only now trying to form some kind of governing body, no rules of this kind would be in place yet, would they?

[puzzlingchest]

I don't know, to be honest... I suppose you don't have to vote, but what's the sense in not voting?

[whitecoathat.livejournal.com]

Indeed, what's the sense in doing anything in this place..?

[puzzlingchest]

Well... this is where you'll be living for the forseeable future, so...

[whitecoathat.livejournal.com]

So I am told.

Well, I am more or less used to being imprisoned.

[puzzlingchest]

Oh? Why is that?

[whitecoathat.livejournal.com]

I am currently serving quite a long sentence.

[puzzlingchest]

I see... well, I suppose even if you are trapped here, at least it's more pleasant?
