Professor Layton and the Unwound Future
Personality:
Luke is generally very kind and sweet to other people, as he sees it as part of becoming a gentleman. From time to time, he has the tendency of being cheeky, especially towards a person he sees as rude. He usually speaks his mind freely, which sometimes gets him scolded by Layton. He also has a tendency of acting before thinking, especially if he‘s suspicious of someone, such as when he tried to attack Inspector Chelmey thinking that he was the evil Don Paolo in disguise. Despite his brashness, he always tries to help someone if they need it.
Luke idolizes Professor Layton, to the point that it was he who made himself Layton’s apprentice, not the Professor. He tries hard to follow in the footsteps of his mentor, sometimes even mimicking his actions (pointing like Layton does when Layton isn‘t around). Also, he takes his role as an apprentice very seriously, even becoming defensive if someone questions his apprenticeship. Luke tends to be very curious about the world around him. The boy is very inquisitive and is always asking questions. Much like his mentor, he also shares Layton’s love for puzzles, but not to the extreme that Layton does.
Like most kids his age, Luke tends to have an overactive imagination. He gets scared by things like ghosts and vampires, and depending on the environment he‘s in, he‘ll be more jumpy and easily startled. He’s also a little naïve, especially about adult matters. Unlike the Professor, he lets his emotions show more often. He’ll lose his temper or become easily shocked by something. Or if something angers him, he'll let it show, even calling someone out on their actions if he doesn't approve of them. Sometimes, he’ll even give in to certain child-like temptations, like jumping on cushions of trains.
He loves animals, and has the ability to communicate with them. If he sees an animal, he’ll usually stop whatever he’s doing to greet it. Whether or not the animal reacts kindly to him is a different matter, because sometimes the animal will lash out at him no matter how nice he is to it. Nonetheless, he’ll always try to reach out to an animal that needs help.
Since Unwound Future, Luke has matured a little. He's become more confidant, going as far as calling himself a "whiz" at puzzles. Not only that, but he's more outspoken and will jump in conversations more often. Luke also is more independent, trying to take charge of a situation rather than letting the Professor decide for him, and will even argue back with the Professor if he doesn't agree with something. But what's probably the most noticeable is that Luke is more blunt than he was before, even to the point where he comes off as downright rude and the Professor ends up having to scold him for it. But on a positive note, the boy has learned to become a little more bold and even braver then he was in previous games.
Strengths/Weaknesses:
Strengths: As a gentleman-in-training, Luke's a very kind boy with a strong desire to help others. He's very bright, perceptive, curious, and eager to learn something new. He's even able to point out clues that other people would've missed, and he's always asking questions. He also tends to take investigations very seriously.
Weaknesses: Luke has a tendency to act without thinking, sometimes running into situations head-first without thinking about the consequences. And if he's afraid of something, sometimes he'll let that fear get the better of him, making it difficult to complete a task without help. Also, his own childish nature sometimes gets the better of him as well. Such as being brutually honest, making fun of someone, or just getting into mischief that could get him in trouble.

Samples
First Person Sample:
[Luke is getting used to using the Pokegear again. So while he's toying with it, he asks a pretty simple question. It's mostly just to get himself caught up on all the latest news in Johto, but he's hoping to see more familiar faces as well.]
So I've been gone for a few months, and I'm afraid I'm behind on what's all been happening here. Can anyone catch me up? Is Team Rock doing their thing still? Gosh, it feels like there's a lot more Pokemon around here too. Anyway, I'd appreciate any information, thanks!
Third Person Sample:
"So, it's you again."
Luke hadn't been in Johto for very long, but once again he was faced with his nemesis. He remembered these things clearly from the first time he was in Johto, and while he wasn't sure if this was the same Sentret he met during his first week here, he couldn't trust any of them. The Sentret on the other hand, chirped happily at Luke. And sure, it looked cute and happy to him - but he remembers those tiny claws. It was just waiting for him to lower his guard enough so that it could lash out at his face.
"I know you think you've got the advantage here, but I'm on to you. The game's up, I'm not going to be fooled by this cute act of yours anymore," Luke puffed out his chest, showing he means business. The only reason Luke was acting with this much arrogance and bravado was because no one else was watching right now to see that he was making a fool out of himself.
The Sentret tilted its head at him, while Mr. Bear the Teddiursa shook her head in exsaperation. While she and Luke had been overjoyed to see each other again, sometimes she really does question his reasoning for things, this especially. Some of it was probably from the excitement of being back in Johto and traveling again.
And ever since he got back, he had this almost this never-ending energy to him, like he was truly happy to be back in a place he spent two years of his life. And while he was disappointed that no one from home was there with him this time and that he was a rookie trainer again, he wasn't going to let himself become a useless trainer like last time. This time, he really did plan to work his way to the top, and become the really amazing trainer he planned to before he left Johto. He glances back at Mr. Bear, and then back to the Sentret.
"Mr. Bear, use scratch!"
