Puzzle 024 - [Video]
Mar. 1st, 2011 10:07 pm[So Luke's pretty busy lately, catching and training those Pokemon and -
Okay, no, he's remained out cold for the past week. Much like other people who fell victim to Route's sudden sleeping sickness, Luke himself was passed out in a deep sleep until now.
A loud crash echoes throughout his room in the Goldenrod Inn, as the thirteen-year-old lands from the bed to the floor in a tangle of bed sheets. The Pokegear on the stand next to him falls too, turning it on as soon as it hits the ground.]
WHAT ON EARTH-! Where am I - where is this?! Where did London go?!
[And during this, Mr. Bear drops down to all fours to inspect the boy she was watching for the past week. After flailing around, Luke finally meets the bear face-to-face with shocked, wide eyes.]
Mr. Bear, is that you?
[He reaches out to touch her snout, and Mr. Bear gladly returns the affection. It happened all so quickly, the last thing he remembered was that he, the Professor, Flora, Barton, and Inspector Chelmey were riding the time machine back to future London and-
Somehow, he must’ve ended up in Johto instead. Did that mean he was alone here or did everyone come here with him to? Before he can think about it too long, his Shinx immediately bounds into the room and tackles him. He pets the lion Pokemon back, keeping his hand out of biting range.]
It’s not that I’m not glad to see you all, it’s just that - [Sigh.] We’re in a lot of trouble back home, you see.
…I can’t believe I’m really back here.
[After finding his Pokegear and realizing it was on the whole time, he clears his throat.]
Ah, hello everyone! Am I back in Johto? Has anything happened while I was asleep? What has been going on anyway? And to whoever brought me back, I’d like to talk to you about your timing! You can’t just pluck people from their worlds whenever you feel like it, something terrible is going to happen to London and I have to get back there! You can’t just send people back home and then just bring them back like that. I-I really have to go back, so you better send me back home so I can help save London or you’re going to be really sorry!
...It wasn't a dream, was it? No, it was real I know it was! L-listen, just let me take care of things back home, all right?!

Date: 2011-03-02 03:16 am (UTC)I doubt you can just demand to go back, and think you actually will. You'll probably be here for a while again.
[action]
Date: 2011-03-02 03:18 am (UTC)Assistant Number Two?
[before remi BURSTS THE HELL IN]
[audio]
Date: 2011-03-02 03:18 am (UTC)But if I don't get back soon, who knows what could happen to London!
[action]
Date: 2011-03-02 03:20 am (UTC)[And he leaps up to answer the door, or at least tries to before forgetting to untangle himself from the sheets and landing on his face again. Oh god what are legs how do I use them.]
Re: [audio]
Date: 2011-03-02 03:20 am (UTC)You're stuck here for now. It's not like London will be destroyed in the time you're gone.
[audio]
Date: 2011-03-02 03:23 am (UTC)[And he's so caught up in his worry that he kind of forgets how ridiculous he sounds right now.]

Date: 2011-03-02 03:29 am (UTC)Uh...video games?
Re: [audio]
Date: 2011-03-02 03:32 am (UTC)Wait..... you don't know what video games are? Then, are you sure that wasn't a strange dream?
[action]
Date: 2011-03-02 03:34 am (UTC)[she... heard that crash. and that didn't sound good. ugh she's been so worried and just open the door already lukeeee]
But why wouldn't I be here?
[action]
Date: 2011-03-02 03:38 am (UTC)[And finally gets up and opens the door, and he looks happy to see her too!]
Gosh, for a minute I thought we'd all gone back home and I was the only one here!
[audio]
Date: 2011-03-02 03:39 am (UTC)Re: [audio]
Date: 2011-03-02 03:42 am (UTC)You're from London, right? What's your name?
[action] 1/2
Date: 2011-03-02 03:59 am (UTC)because damnit, despite appearances, she has been worried.]
[action]
Date: 2011-03-02 04:00 am (UTC)We wouldn't leave you alone, Assistant Number Two.
[action]
Date: 2011-03-02 04:14 am (UTC)When she pulls away, he looks just a little bit emotional.]
I-I'm glad! I mean, we all have to go back together, right?
[video]
Date: 2011-03-02 04:23 am (UTC)Well, right before I woke up here again, I was back in London with Professor Layton! We received a letter that was dated ten years into the future - written by the future me!
My future self was asking for our help. You see, the Professor had turned evil ten years in the future, and was trying to get his hands on a time machine to cause all kinds of trouble! The future me knew of a way to travel back and forth to future London, so we traveled there to stop him! Or at least that was the plan, when we were heading back I ended up here instead.
It's important that I go back to help stop him!
[And he doesn't bother to stop to see how ridiculous his story sounds. These kinda things seem pretty normal to him by now.]
[audio]
Date: 2011-03-02 04:27 am (UTC)[Wait, he's getting distracted. Back on topic!]
Right, I'm Luke. Who's this?
Re: [audio]
Date: 2011-03-02 04:54 am (UTC)[YES. Back to the main topic.
Okay. He's a little boy from London. In a different time(probably). It wouldn't hurt to give out her name this once.]
I'm Shiho. Nice to meet you, Luke. If I may ask, what exactly happened in your "dream"?
[Video]
Date: 2011-03-02 04:59 am (UTC)[PARDON HER SHE'S BEEN DISTRACTED LATELY.]
Wh-- is everything all right?
[... He sounds so upset...]
[Video]
Date: 2011-03-02 05:35 am (UTC)[Though he doesn't realize who knows he was out cold and who doesn't.]
I have to get back, London could be in real trouble if we're all stuck here!
[video]
Date: 2011-03-02 05:36 am (UTC)Re: [audio]
Date: 2011-03-02 05:39 am (UTC)Well! I was back home in London with the Professor, when we received a letter that was from ten years in the future! And what was really strange about it was that it was written by the future me!
Apparently, ten years in the future, the Professor had turned evil and was trying to build a time machine to cause all sorts of trouble! And only we could help stop him, so the future me found a way for us to travel to future London! And right as we were going to confront the evil Professor, that's when I ended up here.
[Video]
Date: 2011-03-02 07:32 am (UTC)Well-- ... sorry, buddy, but-- you've been here awhile. You know it doesn't work like that.
No one's found any way to get home on purpose...
[Video]
Date: 2011-03-02 05:28 pm (UTC)But what if we go back and London's not the same?
[video]
Date: 2011-03-02 05:30 pm (UTC)Could we really be back at home while being here at the same time?
[video]
Date: 2011-03-02 06:32 pm (UTC)All this talk of timelines is making my head spin, to be honest. I really hope you're right about all this.
Re: [audio]
Date: 2011-03-02 10:45 pm (UTC)Well,[Try to calm him down, Shiho.] is this Professor friend of yours someone who would easily be turned evil? I'm having a hard time believing that you time traveled.
(no subject)
Date: 2011-03-03 11:21 am (UTC)Err... welcome back. Sorry about things at home.
[Video]
Date: 2011-03-04 11:38 pm (UTC)But ... we just gotta keep trying to figure out how people go back, right?
[action] I'm sorry this is late ;;
Date: 2011-03-05 04:50 am (UTC)she's at least trying to put on a comforting expression.]
Of course we do! This is a puzzle we all have to solve together. We can't just leave it alone, you know?
(no subject)
Date: 2011-03-08 06:21 am (UTC)I wouldn't mind being back, I just hope London's still there when we get back!
[Video]
Date: 2011-03-08 06:22 am (UTC)I suppose so...they really have a poor sense of timing.
[video]
Date: 2011-03-08 06:23 am (UTC)[Surprisingly, that works.]
...I'm Luke, by the way. Who is this?
[action] I am equally sorry for my lateness!
Date: 2011-03-08 06:24 am (UTC)You're right! And - oh! Remi, you have to hear what all happened back in London while I was away!
[audio]
Date: 2011-03-08 06:26 am (UTC)And we really did time travel! Future London looks nothing like it does now!
[Video]
Date: 2011-03-08 06:33 am (UTC)[Not that it EVER would have been easy, but... taking her father away right before Christmas had been a really low blow.]

Date: 2011-03-08 09:16 am (UTC)Re: [audio]
Date: 2011-03-08 10:36 pm (UTC)Have you tried asking him any of this?
[Time travel. Really? Well, he doesn't know what video games are. Maybe.....too many books? No, this is just too weird. Well he's from a different world, too.......]
I......see. How much time had passed between your London, and the future one?
[audio]
Date: 2011-03-13 06:57 am (UTC)And um, ten years have passed between our London and the future one.

Date: 2011-03-13 07:08 am (UTC)Re: [audio]
Date: 2011-03-13 10:51 am (UTC)I'm sorry, but time travel is pretty much impossible. Maybe it was just a different town, or you were being tricked. And as for the "future" professor, it could be someone else. [Logic. Works every time.]

Date: 2011-03-14 11:17 pm (UTC)[Video]
Date: 2011-03-15 07:51 am (UTC)'Least not one that's public.
[action] ... why do I not see these notifs AUUGH I AM SO SORRY
Date: 2011-03-23 03:01 am (UTC)[she pauses, looking at him curiously. right, these comas worked that way. she almost forgot.]
-- What happened?
