"In Time" 36x48

I humbly present my pitch for pl vs aa 2: Professor Layton vs. The Great Ace Attorney!

(pls click for better quality idk why it keeps doing this)

In which Professor Layton and Luke (and hopefully Flora bc I love her) suffer time travel shenanigans and end up in the late 1800's following clues in the past to help them unravel a mystery in the present, and joined by Ryunosuke and Susato.

Maybe there's a subplot with Phoenix and Maya in the present trying to uncover clues Professor Layton left them in the past, like through the archeological artifacts in his office or sm.

Bonus:

Without the graphics:

(i wanted to contrast the dark blues and purples of the original, so I did yellow and green. And it's somewhere in Italy or Greece I guess for the light airy architecture instead of the heavy Gothic original. The big statues there as a centerpiece to replace the Grand Archive from the first game.

This is how Project Hail Mary went, right?

"Night Train"

Like when Gandalf spent literal PAGES trying to figure out why the vibes were off in Moria and Legolas chimes in with just "it's a balrog :) that shit's evil :) we're so fucked :)" like what do you MEAN you knew already and just didn't tell him??

Or at the beginning of Two Towers when Aragorn thinks there's something nearby so he puts his ear to the ground to listen, and then like 10 minutes later is like "hmmm i hear horses" and Legolas is just like "mm yep. there are 105 blond bitches with spears" like you just let your friend put his face in the dirt and you can SEE them??

gandalf is scratching his head in moria, and legolas is thinking "oh man, the wizard noticed something off *besides* the obvious balrog that we all are aware of??"
