PICARATS 014 [VIDEO/ACTION IN VIOLET CITY] - backdated to 04.27.2011

[profpuzzle]

[ Now, this is a very familiar view to those that have known the Professor for some time; the Pokegear placed down on a small coffee table angled in such a way to film its owner, a open notebook with a fountain pen nearby, a hot cup of Belle Classic tea, and the great Professor himself. From the surroundings, it seems that he's in a Pokemon Centre

Turtwig, huh? It's awfully cute.

[Says the guy with his nosy Skarmory poking around over his shoulder.]

[video]

[profpuzzle]

Haha, yes, it is. It is rather quite heavy though.

Is that Pokemon over your shoulder what you have received, Hal?

[video]

[philanthrotaku]

Huh? O-oh, I don't think I got an egg this time, actually. Might be a good thing, I don't really trust Kotai around eggs...and besides, I'm running out of space.

This is Jupiter, he's--was my father's.

[video]

[profpuzzle]

[ "Was"? Oh right, Hal's father has indeed gone home. Urk, well, maybe they should steer away from there. ]

Jupiter looks like quite the strong Pokemon. What is his species called? I don't believe I have learned it just yet.

[Eleven didn't say anything at first--just called out his Onix with a huge smirk on his face.]

I'm on my way right now.

[profpuzzle]

[ The Professor stares for a second, but chuckling. ]

Always moving so quickly, aren't you, Doctor?

[video]

[usedreturn]

Some things never change, Professor. And a lot of those things are me. ...Except when I do change. Which happens more often than you'd think.

So really that whole statement was a lie. Things change all the time.

But staying in one place is boring, and old ruins are quite the opposite of 'boring'.

[video]

[profpuzzle]

Haha, that is indeed true. It is very good to see that someone else does think the same about ruins. I'm afraid not many do.

[tsunpresident]

If you wouldn't mind, I would like to come along. I could also provide some food and other help if necessary.

[ video ]

[profpuzzle]

Ah, that will be lovely. I do greatly appreciate this, miss...? [ Your name, please. ]

[ video ]

[tsunpresident]

Ah. I apologize; I'm Hinagiku Katsura.

[ video ]

[profpuzzle]

It is quite the pleasure to meet you, Miss Katsura. [ He tips his hat. ] I am Professor Hershel Layton. I am glad to have you upon this trip.

[thetrickstar]

[oh man, do you see this excite. HE IS SO EXCITE.]

Count me in! I've been itching for a chance to get back there.

[video]

[profpuzzle]

[ A smile. ]

Have you gone into the ruins before?

[video]

[thetrickstar]

Yeah, but I didn't get to look around much.

[video]

[profpuzzle]

Well, it will be wonderful to have someone with some previous experience there to join us.

May I learn your name? Mine is Professor Hershel Layton.

[video]

[miniworth]

I'm glad to see it hatched fine, Professor.

[ He was so worried you might be D8< WHY DID YOU SUDDENLY SEND ME AN EGG aaaahhh ;;; ]

[video]

[profpuzzle]

Yes, just yesterday actually. [ The Teddiursa tries to look at the person on the Pokegear. Ohhh, that person has different hair than the Professor. She is so interested now. Milessss, she wants to meet you. ]

Have you enjoyed the festival, my boy?

[video]

[miniworth]

[ Miles want to meet you toooooo. ]

I did. And you, professor?

[video]

[profpuzzle]

I have indeed, thank you for asking. The fireworks have been a wonderful touch.

Have you gotten an egg for yourself in Goldenrod?
