Day 291 of making low effort Des doodles until New World Of Steam releases

I'm off to sleep for a couple of days. Can you guys watch him for me?

#reblog #sticks him in my lizard's terrarium

[saroko-still-draws]

Oh, one PL fan who gave me the excuse to info dump, let me share my vision for a Descole-Janet spinoff game/story.

(Spoilers for Azran Legacy below)

The story would take place roughly after Unwound Future. Maybe even during NWOS. Descole has sort of remade himself into a Robin Hood-esque anti-hero targeting people illegally selling or collecting ancient artifacts, some of whom are even dangerous. One day, he hears about the stories' McGuffin is going to go on display as part of a massive event being hosted by some rich bastard. This guy isn't too important to the story past this, but for now let's just call him 'Strater V. Illian.'

Cue Janet. After the events of Diva she's continued her career as a famous singer and was invited by Mr. Illian at the event in question. But in the middle of the performance, the McGuffin is stolen.

But not by Descole.

It turns out, a third party had their eye on the McGuffin and swooped in before Desole had the chance. I sadly don't have a brilliant name or design for them, but they're basically the most over exagerated phantom thief you could imagine. He doesn't even know what the McGuffin's significance is; just that stealing it will give them fame and fortune.

Both Descole and Janice chase after them, but only manage to each get a part of the artifact while the thief makes off with the third. And here in lies how Des and Janice are forced to work together. See, the McGuffin is actually part of a three piece set: two act as a pair of magical (or sufficiently advanced scientific) handcuffs and the last is the key. And guess which part the thief got away with~~~

Yeah, I went the whole 'handcuffed together' plot, but there was no other way I could think of that would get Janice to work with Descole. She would have the cops on his ass if she so much as caught him working in the local Tesco. So, handcuff plot.

It is, thankfully, more forgiving than most. They work out that the 'cuffs' have a pretty long 'chain' of about two miles, so they don't need to be glued to the hip all the time. Because I'm a very nice, forgiving person.

Hah. No, I'm a bastard. The two miles gives them both some false hope, but it quickly turns out to be much tougher to navigate through than if they were actually handcuffed. Yes, they can work apart, but they still need to coordinate where they're going and what they're looking for to avoid accidents which requires much more foresight in my opinion. If they get too far, they start yanking each other around, and for a pair of globe trotters who treat the planet itself like their own backyard that leads to a lot of problems.

They also work out that they can't go the cops even if Des didn't have a criminal record. If they did, their pieces would likely be locked away never to see the light again, and there was no chance of the key being used to free them. Plus, I'm tempted to add a fourth group who are also after the McGuffin. (I'm a little tempted to make it a Targent holdover group led by Bloom, but I don't know what his final fate was beyond getting arrested.)

So, they work together, desperately trying to catch up to the Phantom Thief, mostly trying to work out his targets and elaborate plans in order to head him off and get the key back. Sometimes even keeping him alive when the Targent wannabes get a little trigger happy.

But the real adventure is watching the two not kill themselves. Janice has every right in the world to be mad at Des, and Descole is very Regretscole but makes no effort to ask for forgiveness. So for the first few chapters Janice would investigate by herself while Descole did the same in disguies. Leading to some rather hilarious bits.

But, Janice does eventually learn about Descole, his motivations, his past, his relation to her old professor. And both of his sacrifices back at the Azran Temple. She still doesn't forgive him for ED but it's a very sobering moment to realize that the person you once considered 'soulless' has more soul than most decent people you know.

(And when she learns more about Targent and what happened to Des' family. Suddenly realizing that the man who put you and others through a Squid Game and went on a temper tantrum with a giant mecha was actually the lesser evil you could've dealt with must be terrifying.)

Descole, for his part, gets a pretty fair share of grief from Janice, but having her along actually helps him put his actions into perspective. He's just running from himself and his past at this point. He was already under a mental strain prior to story, but Janice is a physical representation of his actions come back to haunt him. It's slow and under slight duress at first (her confronting him over small things that triggered him and make him act off), but he does trusting her as his assistant. When they start working together for real, he even decides to go out under his true identity.

It doesn't start so well, but it's something.

I will cap off by admitting that I don't think this story would end with the two becoming friends, and Layton would not be making an appearance aside from passing comments. I just think there's too much bad blood between Janice and Descole for the two to develop a good friendship at this point, but mutual respect is attainable. As for Layton, he'd steal the spotlight too easily, and as much as I want to see the Bronev bros reconcile, Des needs to get his shit together first.

That's pretty much all I've got for this idea. Anyone is free to make suggestions.

I drew these doodles a few months ago after seeing other peoples' edits of Descole and Janice together but didn't feel confident in cleaning up and posting them 'til today.

It was just supposed to be a joke, but I kinda like the idea of a spin off game/story where these two meet again and are forced into a mystery because reasons. Janice technically didn't get to be a proper character in her own debut movie, and Descole deserves to face at least some consequences of his actions.

+Bonus: Janice helping Raymond on a shopping trip.

Broke: Scavengers/Humans screaming in fear before they're eaten by dragons.

Woke: Folks cussing dragons out or casting judgement on how they're eaten. If you're about to die you may as well say what's on your mind, right?

Plus a scene for a future fic this put me in the mood to draw.

Professor Layton and the Illusory Forest

ＰＡＲＴ　０１

〚ＦＩＲＳＴ〛〚ＰＲＥＶ〛〚ＮＥＸＴ〛

Disclaimer: This is a fan-translation for the Japan-exclusive novel Professor Layton and the Illusory Forest. The original novel was written by Kei Yanagihara under the supervision of Akihiro Hino, and belongs to Level-5.

This translation only aims to be a pleasant read for non-Japanese fans, nothing more: I made a few deliberate changes while translating in order to get the writing style closer to what is usually found in English fanfictions, as the Japanese storytelling can sometimes be different than what we are used to.

Somewhere in this world lies the Book of Fate.

This book knows the destiny of all humans.

Whoever has it in hand will rule the world… Past, and future.

Surpassing time and space, one could control everything.

And yet, if someone acquires it… The world will slowly fall to ruin.

The heavens will judge those who would attempt to lay their hands on it despite these warnings.

Chapter 1: A Wedding Under Attack

“The ‘Book of Fate’… Hmm.”

The glowing light of a fireplace illuminates the profile of a man engulfed in darkness.

This man is wearing a mask. The cloak on his shoulders is rather gaudy, and whenever the flames flicker, they make him look like some sort of clown. Despite this, his attire looks strangely fitting, when placed within the setting of an old English study.

His old butler humbly clears his throat, urging him to continue with an encouraging look.

The masked man speaks quietly. “At the west end of England lies Neverlace, a land inhabited by curious forest people.”

“Neverlace, you say?” the butler repeats in a whisper.

The man nods. “Legend has it that there is a forest haunted by strange phenomena within Neverlace, and that those who step foot in it will never come back. As if they were possessed by it.”

The butler bows his head lightly. “The people of England have all been familiar with forests from an early age, and have known to both admire and fear them. This is the kind of story that everyone loves to hear.”

From behind his mask, the man gives a mischievous wink.

“Oh, but there is more to it. Hidden in that forest is the Book of Fate… A book which knows the fate of all of humanity.”

The butler shakes his head sadly.

“I do believe that this haunted forest really exists. But a book that knows the future, now…? You should not be surprised that I find this tale quite dubious.”

The masked man says: “It may be hard to believe, indeed. But if it were true, what would you do? If such a book really existed, anyone could control the fate of humanity as a whole.”

The butler straightens his back and retorts with dignity:

“With all due respect, I believe that such a thing should only be used in the name of the divine, master.”

The masked man, named Descole, replies with a chuckle:

“This is precisely why I must have this book. No matter what it takes.”

Finally the next chapter of Nova Flare is out! And it took like, what, four months? I guess it could be worse. Here we continue on with where we left off with Nova. What will she do with the scavenger I wonder?

Got a chance to finally mass dump what I did for Descember. Sadly, I started getting some burn out around Day 6 so I'm afraid that's where it stops. I also decided not to post days 2 and 5. 5 I just wasn't happy with either, so they've been banished to Hard Drive Hell.

Day 3: Mall Santa

Santa Des? Wrong! Everyone in the PL fandom knows that Raymond is the real saint!

Day 4: Snow Angel

Do you ever wish you could go back?

Day 6: Candles

Keep a candle lit long enough; sooner or later it goes out.

Descember Day 1: Holly

I have been on a Professor Layton hyperfixation recently. In between news of one of my favorite game series coming back, replaying the games I already have, and searching for the Prologue-series (that I was stupid enough to pass over back when they were in circulation), one character alias Descole has gotten me back into this series by the throat.

So, of course, I had to participate in Descember. That makes perfect sense.

I may not be able to post everyday due to internet issues but I will try to make something for each day and post it eventually.

How Descember works

Descember works as a December advent calendar, except it focuses solely (or mostly) on Desmond Sycamore and Jean Descole. Hence, Descember. It started off as a bit of a shitpost idea, but it grew into its own thing.

There’s 25 days, like your traditional advent calendar, and each one is assigned a prompt. How you interpret any given prompt is entirely up to you, but keep in mind the colour that comes with each prompt—if the prompt’s day is green (odd numbers), then the prompt comes in a fluffy, or any generally light-hearted context. But, if the prompt’s day is red (even numbers), then the prompt comes in the context of angst. So, keep that in mind when you do any prompt!

As for what medium you use, it doesn’t matter—you can draw art, make a comic, write a story, whatever you’d like. As long as it’s a creation related to Descember and the prompt for the given day, it counts. There is also no requirement to do every single day, so do it at your own pace. You’re also free to use the prompts after Descember for whatever purposes you’d like.

Please, no NSFW; this is for anyone and everyone.

You can use #descember 2023 as a tag, as well as just #descember, to categorise anything made in relation to Descember. This blog will reblog posts tagged as either of those. Tagging the specific prompt/day is optional.

Remember, this is just a for-fun event!
