Fics like a leftover light

Espella sits down and tells him everything: the loss of consciousness, the memories, the panic, the haziness, the missing periods of time. She tells him about her concerns, that perhaps there’s another Bell of Ruin situation happening, or that maybe somebody is trying to replicate the magic Labyrinthia once held, but all she can read from Layton's expression is a grimace. "I thought to myself that it couldn’t be true, but there’s no other option," she says. "It has to be real magic this time! What was it that Mr Wright said to everyone? Once you’ve eliminated the impossible…” “Whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth,” Layton finishes for her. “...But magic is impossible. We are all aware of that fact now.” “But that’s the only thing that’s left, right? So it must be possible!" “Espella.” Layton places his hands folded in his lap, but it’s less like a polite gesture and more like he’s bracing himself for something. “I fear that this… magic you are experiencing may not be magic at all, but rather, a trauma response.” or: post plvspw, espella struggles to cope.
