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.]

[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.

What. Incestuous marriage reminds you of a puzzle?

[Wow, okay.]

[................... 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.
