[Layton stands looking confused in the corridor, his hand reached out as if to open a door. He was sure his office door was there in front of him, but now it was not. He lowered his hand.]

What is going on here?

[He looks around.]

Hello? Is there anyone here?

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

...you really en't the professah from my time if you're still botherin' with me bloody grammar.

If I was trying to correct your grammar, I would have done so and succeeded along time ago.

[Layton smiled, feeling a slight chuckle coming.]

Well, back 'ome you don' even comment on it any more.

I see.
Well I'll try and not to, but I can't make any promices.

Oh... well, it en't a problem. Just weird to 'ear it after so long, y'know?

I bet it is.

Nice to talk to you without Flora 'ere, an' all.

[Luke you are the worst gentleman.]

Ah yes Flora, I have not seen her, sins her wedding day.

Yet, I would agree with you on that.

'er... she's married?

Oh yes, She got married only last week, in my time.
It was a sight to see, She was very happy and her chosen partner is a fine man indeend.

I'm... pretty sure she en't married back 'ome... I don't think she's ever been married, neither.

Wouldn't blame 'er 'usband for leavin' 'er if she did 'ave one.

[He thinks he's quiet enough for that to be inaudible, but he's probably wrong.]

[chuckles a little.]

Soon after you left, Flora had visted me at the university, more then once and got to know a student of mine. They fell in love.
From what I know, he is the one that is cooking.

Well, back 'ome she's been fawnin' over me ever since I got back to London. 's why I don't reckon she's been married, 'cause I en't ever 'ad a married woman follow me 'round like 'er.

I have no dout that she is, you are a fine looking younge man.

[He looks away.]

...well. She wouldn' like it if I got with 'er anyway. I've been with lotsa girls and it never lasts.

I'm sorry to hear that my boy.

Why are you sorry? It en't all that bad...

Some would say it was.

But if your happy, then it is no problem.

[He smiles]

's... enjoyable.

[IF YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN wink wink nudge nudge]

[Oh Luke, that not gentlemaly at all]

I see.

[...heh.]

Don't look so disappointed, professah, I always treat 'em nice. Wouldn' it be ungentlemanly to disappoint the ladies?

[Luke is made of over-the-top bravado when it comes to women.]

Yes it wouls be ungentlemanly to disappoint the ladies.

But it is more so to play with a ladys feeling.

[Layton is wishing he had stoped Clark from taking Luke across seas now.]

Play with their feelings?

'ardly, professah, they know what I'm like.

[Maybe if you'd done that then Luke wouldn't have been so freaked out by the dreams about y-- nvm there were no dreams. Honest. 8U]

Mmm...

You sound like... Never mind.

Sound like wot, professah?

[It is. Strangely amusing to have Layton flustered like this. ~~Luke you sadist you.~~]
