No. 00X - The Fourth Wall

[There sure is a lot of excitement this morning. After getting a vague grip on the situation by talking to some of the wingless newcomers, Layton decides to take a stroll around the village, trunk in hand, and observe. Something very unusual is happening, and there's no point in missing it by staying indoors.

Occasionally, he takes a seat on a bench or at a table and scribbles notes into his journal. Or puzzles into his puzzle index. Because no matter how much hubbub there is, you can never stop the puzzles.]

[Too far away, too soft.

Her head darts inquisitively to the left, as if having heard something (something not him) and she moves. To the other direction, mind you, away from him.

Something seems to have caught her attention.]

[Really, Hershel, is this how a gentleman should be?

But— ah, yes, there she is, up front at the counter, speaking to someone animatedly. Perhaps about clocks, as the other person seems to be having a pocketwatch out (silver, shiny, probably worth a 40 picarat puzzle or two).

It's definitely Claire. Or should it be..."Celeste"?]

[But what if they're discussing a particularly engaging puzzle involving gentlemen in top hats and pocket watches? You may never know, Layton.

Her conversation doesn't last for too long, thankfully (though whatever it was about, it has made her laugh, goodness) and she turns to move away and-- looks directly at the exit just right then. Are you still visible, Layton? Or at least, is your hat visible?]
