First Experiment

[puzzledwife]

[Action!]
[Upon waking, Claire burst out of her bedroom, and fled down the steps. Something was wrong, she coudl feel it in her bones. She could see fine without her glasses... and the explosion, why was she safe? It didn't make sense

Ah, h-hello Miss Claire. I'm Flora. Um...w-welcome to Mayfield.

[puzzledwife]

[A light, friendly laugh] Flora, what a nice name. Have you lived here long?

[bbsatbyrobots]

Th-thank you.

I've been here for a few months. L-luckily someone from home got here the same time I did..

[puzzledwife]

That's good. Helps to have friends around when strange things are happening.

[bbsatbyrobots]

It is! I-Is anyone you know here, Miss Claire?

[puzzledwife]

Ah, yes, I'm living with a very close friend of mine; Hershel Layton, if you know him.

[bbsatbyrobots]

Ah! Y-You know the professor?

[puzzledwife]

Well yes, we went to college together, I take it your a friend of his? [Professor? He was still a student back home...

It must have been a long time, then, if that's true.]

[bbsatbyrobots]

[puzzledwife]

How do you mean?

[bbsatbyrobots]

[bbsatbyrobots]

Ah...yes. I-I was all by myself, and he took me in.

[puzzledwife]

That sounds like something he'd do. You're very lucky to have somebody like him protecting you.

[bbsatbyrobots]

Y-yea, I guess I am.

[puzzledwife]

[There's a short, happy sigh]

So, how long has he been taking care of you?
