I think the main reason clangen can never grab me for very long is just my cats always refuse to do interesting things, like i make two cats utterly despise each other, trying to set up some intrigue, then one becomes leader and im like "ooooo" and then they pick the other cat as deputy and im like "oooo?" and then i send them on patrols by themselves for MOONS and its just "wow copseflame really appreciated beetlestar's company" like CMON i need to be able to micromanage these cats more, i need to be able to select a cat and go "you're training in the dark forest and you are willing to do anything to become leader" or something, set up some antagonists because it never happens naturally

going to be a little cringe rn but I saw a post of someone HCing that snape created levicorpus because sometimes he would have meltdowns and being upside down calmed him (it was a post about autistic snape) and like. I've always associated snape with the song Quiet from the Matilda the Musical, specially because of his occlumency and stuff but in the song there's a lyric that goes : " like the sound when you lie upside down in your bed/ just the sound of your heart in your head" so I read the post and was like omg is this a matilda the musical reference??

I had this idea ages ago for a Professor Layton sequel/spin-off centred around Luke called
Doctor Triton
Set about ten years after Lost Future.
Luke is back from America, studying zoology at Gressenheller and is completing his PhD.
Layton is semi-retired. He still lectures but has decided to leave most of the mystery-solving behind so he can (finally) focus on his students.
Luke now solves mysteries with Flora in his spare time.
Flora is always calling Luke Dr Triton, to impress their clients, and tease Luke, and Luke always tries to correct her that he’s not a doctor yet but he just gets flustered and embarrassed.
Katrielle exists in this universe, but she’s not related to anyone. She’s a massive Professor Layton fan and believes she is a better ‘heir’ to the Layton legacy than Luke.
As a result, Katrielle forms a one-sided rivalry with Luke.
She’s always popping up when they least expect her, like Chloe in Touch Detective.
Emiliana replaces Chelmey as the Scotland Yard representative. Hastings is her Barton, though he outranks her since she is a newer member of the force.
Emmy reappears, perhaps with a mystery for Luke to solve.
Clive is out on parole (I realise due to his crimes he probably wouldn't be but let's pretend ok), but he’s unable to find work after the whole trying to destroy London thing. So, he turns to Luke and Flora to ask if they’ll give him a job at their mystery-solving office thing or whatever. Luke accepts since a true gentleman always forgives others.
Clive will have his colour scheme be mainly green since blue (Luke), orange/red (Layton, pink/red (Flora) and yellow (Emmy) are already taken and purple won’t suit him (though maybe it could…).
Flora has learnt fencing from Layton.
Flora is feisty and tough, but still has her cuteness and sweetness.
Luke is more mature and he tries to act like Layton would, but is still a bit of an idiot. He tries to avoid going to Layton for help if only because he wants to prove himself
Clive is the one who balances the group and is usually the one who stops arguments between the two.
Alternative idea:
Layton has taught Flora his mystery solving skills and decided to retire from mystery solving.
Flora, unfortunately, ends up with a case she is stuck on.
Luckily, Luke is back to complete his doctorate in zoology at Gressenheller and Flora forces him to help. It turns out that Luke’s ability to talk to animals comes in handy and they make a breakthrough.
Luke ends up becoming an ‘animal detective’: his clients are animals who lead him to mysteries that need solving.
