No. 002 - Lost and Found
[Action?]
[Somewhere, a puzzle sits. Abandoned.
Why? How? Nobody knows. But it looks innocent enough. Little blocks in playful colors, purposefully arranged inside a handcrafted house of wood. The blocks slide easily with a nudge, almost as if they were born to do so. It looks like the big red block would fit perfectly into the space on the right. In fact, it looks like it would be a pretty easy task. Might as well give it a try, right?
But this cheerful little puzzle has a dark secret. To the savvy, it's worth 99 picarats and requires a series of 81 moves at minimum to complete. To the not-as-savvy, that means it's a lot harder than it looks. This is not a puzzle for the weak.]
[Voice, evening]
Good evening, Luceti. I’ll only be a moment. I seem to have lost a puzzle of mine -- a sliding block puzzle, to be precise. Has anyone seen it? I would appreciate any word.
(( OOC: I don’t count on him actually getting the puzzle back, but it can be spotted anywhere and everywhere. And if you'd like to play out puzzle frustrations with someone other than Layton, go right ahead! Puzzle destruction is also a thing that is acceptable. Just sayin'.
P.S.: a video of the puzzle if you want to see it in action. ))

So then, what do all horrible people have in common? How would you define evil?

[The fact that his first criterion also applies to most gangsters is lost on Firo. The way he sees it, all his Family's rackets are different because they're for the Family, not individuals.]

[Layton's question surprises him, but he doesn't hesitate in answering.]
Sure he can. Some people just plain don't have any good at all. Not everybody, but there are people who're pure evil out there.
no subject
Maybe so...
[He looks somewhere off-camera and startles slightly.] Goodness, look at the time. It's been a pleasure meeting you, Firo, but I should track that puzzle down while the day is still light.

[He recalls, guiltily, what Layton's original message was for.]
Nice meetin' you too, hope I wasn't distractin' you too much. Good luck findin' it.
