hintcoinplz[Audio/Action for the Layton House.]
[Luke's curled up on the couch with his Pokegear, wrapped in blankets while shivering with a high fever. He almost doesn't bother with trying to use the Pokegear, but he's desperate to know if he's suddenly dying of some mysterious illness and why so many people seem to be infected with this strange virus. Maybe there's been some news on a cure? He couldn't lose hope yet.
And he certainly couldn't spend the rest of his life looking like this.]
Y-you know I-I'm sure t-this will a-all pass soon. S-someone's working on a c-cure, right? S-so I'm s-sure we'll be b-better in no time - ah.
Achoo!
A-anyway, d-does anyone know the d-details on w-what this s-strange illness is? I - ah.
[Luke sniffles a bit. Don't you hate it when you think you have to sneeze and-]
ACHOOOOOOOOOOOOZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!
[A powerful surge of electricity lights up the entire house, which is accompanied by what almost sounds like an explosion. Several things break in the house, right before the house goes pitch black. Luke can only stare in horrified silence for a few seconds. Did he do that?!]
...Uh oh.
[Action.]
[Ashamed and scared that he just knocked out the electricity in the house, Luke wanders outside before he does anymore damage. He has a blanket wrapped around himself like a cloak, where only his face and fingers are visible - and his face and fingers are now an unhealthy yellow color, with his cheeks a very deep red.
But his biggest concern are the newly grown horns sticking from his head, which he's desperately trying to cover with the blanket. Long, black-tipped yellow horns are sticking from his head, resembling a certain Pokemon.
He sits outside for a moment on a grassy hill outside of Goldenrod. He'd like to go into the city itself but he's a little hesitant to go into a busy city looking like this - especially since he's not safe to be around right now. Those city lights are very alluring though...]
Ah...
Achoooozzzzzzztt!
[Another powerful surge of electricity from Luke creates a very noticeable beacon of light to his location. Anyone who decides to investigate the beacon of light will find a very sickly-looking and horrified Luke, who's surrounded by a bunch of charred and very unconscious bird Pokemon. Whoops.]

Date: 2012-07-17 02:12 am (UTC)...what just...? Luke? Professor?
[Wait. The front door opened. Ditching the tea, Flora hurries towards the door to figure out who disappeared on her. That's when she spots him, her frightened little buddy surrounded by all the birds.] L-Luke!
[Action]
Date: 2012-07-17 02:41 am (UTC)F-Flora, stay back-!
[And he sneezes again, although this time he just crackles with electricity. Still, he's scared of hurting her and jumps back anyway, struggling to keep his balance.]
[Action]
Date: 2012-07-17 03:56 am (UTC)She just stares.]
What's... what's going on?
[Action]
Date: 2012-07-17 03:59 am (UTC)...I-I think we j-just got super powers.
[Action]
Date: 2012-07-17 04:12 am (UTC)All of this makes her head hurt.]
We... I don't understand! How...?
[Action]
Date: 2012-07-17 04:47 pm (UTC)I don't know, Flora. Something's really, really wrong.
[Action]
Date: 2012-07-17 05:11 pm (UTC)Come back inside. It's... just a puzzle we'll need to solve. What would the professor do in this case?
[Action]
Date: 2012-07-25 04:54 am (UTC)Before he can dwell on it too long, he finds himself taking her hand anyway.]
R-right, a puzzle. And the P-Professor wouldn't just leave a p-puzzle unsolved. S-so we have to d-do our p-part to help figure out the reason b-behind this mysterious illness.

Date: 2012-07-19 01:39 am (UTC)[He hears Luke and sees the flash before he sees the boy himself and, curious, follows the beacon straight to the other boy. Laughing a little, he pulls out his gear to send Luke a text as he approaches.]

[He's long since ditched the hoodie and scarf he was wearing earlier today. It's just too damn hot for that. Why couldn't this infection happen during the winter...]
Re: action;
Date: 2012-07-19 02:40 am (UTC)wait if John could hear him sneeze...
Luke perks up, looking around. The blanket around his head slips, revealing his horns.]
action;
Date: 2012-07-20 06:45 pm (UTC)nice horns.
[Holy shit he got something typed out without typo'ing a single word! This is an accomplishment!]
action;
Date: 2012-07-21 05:06 pm (UTC)H-hello John!
[He sniffs a little, hoping another sneeze wouldn't follow.]
I-I s-see you w-went through s-some changes too, huh?

action;
Date: 2012-07-31 05:59 pm (UTC)[He's going the over the list of cool words people taught him last time. Saying radical wasn't cool anymore it seems.]
G-groovy?
[...Luke no.]
action;
Date: 2012-08-03 01:39 am (UTC)[After a moment, he bursts out laughing, not at Luke necessarily. Yes, that was lame but oddly it kind of helps him feel better about all this.]
imm glad somebdy thinks so!
action;
Date: 2012-08-04 05:18 am (UTC)Luke stifles a laugh in return.]

[And then BOOM. Darkness.]
... Holy crap, Luke.
[Video]

Date: 2012-07-25 08:08 am (UTC)Re: [Video]
Date: 2012-07-27 05:02 am (UTC)[Kinda panicking right now because oh god what did he do. Is the Professor going to be mad at him?]
[Video]
Date: 2012-07-28 07:50 pm (UTC)I'm sure you didn't!
[Video]
Date: 2012-07-31 06:08 pm (UTC)I just sneezed! How did...what if the Professor finds out? What if I do it again? I could really hurt someone!
[Video]
Date: 2012-08-02 06:33 pm (UTC)He's a reasonable guy!
[Video]
Date: 2012-08-02 08:02 pm (UTC)Y-you're right. It's just...I knew I was sneezing pretty hard but not that hard!
[Video]
Date: 2012-08-03 01:14 am (UTC)[Video]
Date: 2012-08-04 05:12 am (UTC)[Because that's clearly the biggest issue here. And speaking of issues, looks like Luke is preparing for another sneeze.]
Ah...
Ah...
Achoozztt!!
[...Well, he didn't knock out the power in Goldenrod, but through the darkness there's a few sparks of electricity.]
[Video]
Date: 2012-08-05 01:36 am (UTC)... Okay, yeah, you're probably gonna wanna get that looked at.
