Professor Layton

I loved the Professor Layton games when I was younger (and still now, let’s be honest) and when I started high school, the spin off game Mystery Room was how I made one of my best friends! When I found out there was fanfiction... well. Here we are.

The Tower of Hanoi by a_mere_trifle on AO3. (13,923 words).

My Rating: 5 stars.

Description: He's been working on this puzzle for nine long years, and the endgame begins today. He shall not lose. Not this time.

Notes: This was absolutely gorgeous. The moment I figured out the second person perspective... I lost my shit. It was phenomenal.

Note to Self by bananabog on AO3. (3,169 words). 

Tags: Fluff, DID shenanigans.

My Rating: 5 stars.

Description: Alfendi's memories aren't all there all of the time. It's causing problems.

Notes: This was so cute and the idea of passing post-it notes back and forth was so good! It weirdly gave me Sherlock (honorary) vibes too.

An Inward Breath by cloudychelc on AO3. (7,822 words).

Tags: Memory Loss, Angst with a Happy Ending, Amnesia.

My Rating: 4 stars.

Description: In which the past five years of Lucy's memories of Alfendi Layton are eradicated after a case gone wrong. Lucy Layton, much to his horror, was no more in her mind. In her mind, she was still the incorrigible Lucy Baker. And by God, does that realization hurt.

Notes: This was so sweet - especially the rings! - and so in character.

The Six People Hershel Layton Saw In Flora and The One He Didn’t by safefontwork on AO3. (2,969 words).

Tags: Self Harm, Parental Abuse, Angst.

My Rating: 4 stars.

Description: “It feels like I escaped one tower just to live in another!" Layton is forced to confront some emotional hangups concerning his daughter.

Notes: This is so gorgeous and I nearly cried - Flora should have been in more of the games but this gives such an excellent (if not terribly depressing) reason why.

Calling the Cavalry by Laurea on AO3. (890 words).

Tags: Spoilers, Potty Prof, Romance Failure, Humor.

My Rating: 4 stars.

Description: Faced with his toughest case yet, Alfendi Layton calls an old friend for a new perspective.

Notes: The suggestion that Al and Luke are this close had me reeling... the implications!! But I loved it.

faithful friends who are dear to us by Samsonet on AO3. (1,473 words).

My Rating: 3 stars.

Description: Alfendi's family knows that Lucy is important to him -- why invite her to Christmas Eve dinner otherwise? But he's pretty sure they don't know how she's brought out the other side of him.

Notes: This was adorable and it was so nice to see Flora again! I wish she was mentioned more in the games.

The Pain of Grief by SiaCatGirl on AO3. (2,890 words).

Tags: Angst, Drama, One Shot.

My Rating: 3 stars.

Description: During a dangerous case, Lucy is seriously wounded and put in hospital. Alfendi goes to pay her a visit.

Notes: This was so angsty for such a short fic, but it was so good!

I hope you enjoyed them! I certainly did. And here’s to there hopefully being more Layton games in the future.
