The Story So Far

by been-there-pun-that

A young Hershel Layton starts writing about his thoughts after the death of his best friend. It's certainly not a daily diary, but he does record the major (and some of the minor) events of his life. Updates every Wednesday and Saturday. Also on AO3. Contains minor and major spoilers for most of the series.

25. 3rd August, 1954

Dear Diary,

I've been told that the Tritons have arrived on good first and middle names for the baby, but they're not telling what those names are. Ever the merciful one of the pair, Brenda did hint that their son will be named after some grandfather, though. I went to their mothers because I figured they would be the ones most likely to spill the beans on the subject. No such thing. Neither Mrs. Gloria Triton nor Mrs. Linda Sutherland would reveal any of the names of their respective family patriarchs to me. They were forewarned about me; this was to be a strictly family business. I've also been told by certain informants that Brenda has been having some dreadful cravings recently for roast lamb. My heart goes out for Clark's wallet.

On a completely unrelated subject, I heard Clark's old CTT partner, that Paul fellow, has been dismissed from Gressenheller. I wonder what happened, though I'm not really surprised.
