No. 00X - The Fourth Wall

[reminded]

[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.]

what a funny way to spell "hell yes"

[doggtier]

[It's okay. Dave's not paying much attention to the looks Layton's sending his way anyway. He's just kinda staring off into the distance behind his too cool shades, still talking because. Well, because nothing. He just is.]

Yeah, see, I got here and everyone was suddenly running around with wings. Except me. So what the hell. Except not really, because I'm not dead. That's kind of a requirement for angel wings or whatever, right. But I don't know, we've never stopped by a dream bubble full of random winged assholes before. Wait. No, we have. Not like this though. That's the difference. Get it? So I guess what I'm trying to say is even though this place is obviously different, how come I still don't see a single glass of AJ anywhere.

that's a funny way of reading "gtfo!!!"

...

[Layton was with him up until "dream bubble". If this were one of his students, he would probably be making a mental note to talk to him after class or something.]

I assure you, all of us here are alive. And what do you mean by "AJ"?

be more true to your heart

[doggtier]

See. [He says it again because he needs to stress the importance of this.] This is exactly what I mean, man. You don't even know.

[this young man is quite the..................... puzzle]

If you explain it to me in more detail, I may be able to help you.

[at least make a proper puzzle out of it, jeez]

[doggtier]

[Wow, lame.]

Dude, I just gave you a fucking monologue of detail. Practically a Shakespearean soliloquy of beautiful Strider poetry for all that you were listening. What more do you want, six seasons and a movie?

[reminded]

[wow watch your language, buttstain!!]

... You're referring to your talk of Jesus and a "dream bubble"? I fail to see how it is related to "AJ".

[doggtier]

[Some puzzle solver you are, fuckass.]

They're all so related, they might as well incestuously get married. Though that would make no difference because that's how related they are.

[Okay, he has officially lost track of the boy that is Dave. But maybe this AJ business is a puzzle in itself... If OJ is orange juice, maybe AJ is apple juice? But how is apple juice related to anything.........

Oh.]

That reminds me of a puzzle.

[doggtier]

What. Incestuous marriage reminds you of a puzzle?

[Wow, okay.]

[reminded]

[................... It does, now that he thinks about it, but that's beside the point.]

No, no. Here, allow me to demonstrate.

[He lifts his trunk to his lap and opens it, revealing it to be filled with one book and a heap of puzzles, which might just look like a trunk full of crap to the general populace. Out of this pile of crap, he expertly reaches in and pulls out a slider puzzle, which he holds out for Dave to take.]

This is what I meant.
