[Three wishes are the sort of things that someone like Twister could contemplate over for eternity. But he does not have an eternity, he has simply a month. Which is much longer than this place usually allows for its events (perhaps it did this purposely to throw him off, because it knows he's wise to its system), so he should be glad to have that long to plan out what to do with them.

But he takes some small satisfaction in knowing that his first wish is purely selfish.

Twister does not make the same mistake as Don - he does not wish for Peacock to be here, because he knows that would simply result in the pet peacock Anton keeps to appear where he is at present.

So, after some consideration, he words his wish differently.]

I wish for the Dressing Room to manifest within these walls in its human form and be forced to live here amongst its residents.

[He knows full well that this will end up being the one Peacock selects as his temporary wish, but even a single month will amuse him.]

You think you know me so well. All of you Layton's are the same.

[He gives a look down ans shakes his head. The truth is he does have a lot that he wants but nothing that could help him while he is stuck here.]

There are subtle differences between us.

But regardless, I'm sure you would have liked to return to your home world, wouldn't you?

[He thinks about it a moment and sighs. Truthfully, he does want to go back, but there are...things, if not things, people that have kept him here in the dressing room.

Mostly, as of lately, his double.]

I suppose...I'm not sure however...

It would be a shame to lose the relationships you've built up here, would it not?

[He raises an eyebrow.]

That was a rather suggestive way to say that.

[He crosses his arms.]

What do you mean by that?

Nothing at all. Jeanne has not told me anything about her relationship with you and I am not one to pry.

We don't have a relationship.

[We fucked, he's thinking. And I care about her...but not like that.]

Well, I suppose that would be a lie. She is my double and I would probably go as far as saying, my friend.

[He mentally shudders at this.]

It is very nice to hear you have someone who you consider a friend, Descole.

[He's clearly amused as Descole's disdain for this.]

[His disdainful expression he's giving now, probably amuses Twister well. It's hurting Descole thinking about it.]

She's me. She's hardly a friend.

[Well considering I'm so nice to her, and I hate myself, he thinks, this is very strange...]

But you enjoy her company more than that of others, correct?

Well...she's me. I enjoy the company of me more than anyone, yeah.

[He gives a look to him.]

Wouldn't you? No, you're a social creature, I forgot.

That isn't to say I don't enjoy my own company.

But if you choose to be your own friend then there is nothing wrong with that, Descole.

[He gives an annoyed grimace. Hershel always bothered him, but someone's in a mental time of month, or something.]

You say that so condescendingly, you...

[but he stops himself from insulting.]
