Mystery-Man Layton..

Saw this post about how he's basically built his personality from bits and pieces of all the other people in his life and felt like drawing something...

🎩New Game 🧩

this reminds me of a puzzle...

[princema-k]

erm now draw clive covered in blood....

chat can we fucking kill this guy already

Ok, but imagine a scenario in which the prequels are accounted for and Claire learns about the crazy stuff her bf did over the course of the series.

(The “You could be killed!” line hits me right in the feels, btw)

She’s so concerned, here.

Hershel is used to do this kind of thing by now, but it’s her first time witnessing him do something like this. I imagine she’d be wondering when her boyfriend became so willing to put his own life at risk, like that. It’s a stark contrast with how he was in the flashbacks of UF, after all.

Also, just imagine her learning what happened in Azran Legacy.

I heard Luke is afraid of shots.

Distraction puzzle to the rescue!

+wanted to make a more end credits-esque version

I’m sure many others have pointed this out before, and this is certainly not the first time I ramble about it, BUT:

Notice how Clive’s parents look like Hershel and Claire.

Notice how they disappear to the right of the screen, which is symbolically associated with the future, while Layclaire exits stage left, remaining in the past.

Clive represents the child they could have had. Hence why he’s so smart he can rival our protagonist in a battle of wits. Hence why he’s saved by both Hershel and Claire at different points in his story. Hence why the mobile fortress is defeated by a simple pocket watch, the ultimate symbol of their love. Hence why he’s close to the Professor on the box, where Luke would typically be:

It’s him! Clive is their Lost Future.

Don Paolo was in love with Layton, not Claire, which is why he became his nemesis.

Observe:

Don Paolo is watching Layton and Claire talk and is obviously pining. The game wants you to believe he's watching Claire, but I think he's watching Layton. After all, stalking Layton from the shadows is what he's known for.

When Claire unexpectedly kisses Layton, Don Paolo reacts with complete shock.

But when Layton smiles and returns the affection, Don Paolo completely deflates.

He is completely focused on Layton, smiling and in love. He barely glances at Claire.

And that's when he starts crying.

He doesn't acknowledge Claire at all. Instead he cries out "LAAAAAYTON!!!"

He's not mad at Layton for stealing his girl, he's mad at Layton for breaking his heart.

So he declares Layton his enemy and vows to get his revenge for making him look like a fool.

Everyone knows the very concept of a nemesis is pretty gay. As the famous saying goes:

"If a rivalry lasts longer than 7 years then you are no longer rivals. You are Gay."

Also, was anyone gonna tell me young Don Paolo wore a purple version of Luke's outfit or was I supposed to notice that by myself?
