Professor Hughes
Script (53 lines)
HughesFine. But only one autograph—HughesOh. It's just you two. What can I do for you? HughesBesides humor you while you interrupt my work,
that is. HughesI wonder, where is that volume on talking animals...? HughesJust where does that voice of yours come from,
anyway? Hmmm...? HughesI can't believe you have vocal cords. HughesOr perhaps you create some sort of verbal vibration
by beating your wings? HughesOr perhaps you're hypnotizing all of us right now.
Perhaps you're making us all dream this... HughesThere is something going on with you. I don't know
what it is yet, but I'm going to find out... ButterflySay, how's the research on the Goddess Cog going?
HA! Say that five times fast. HughesAh, yes! That's what I was looking up. The Goddess
Cog is neither wood, stone, nor metal... HughesIt is made of a material the likes of which I have never
seen before! HughesIt is said to be millennia old, and yet it shows
absolutely no visible signs of wear! HughesI am not frustrated in the least. I am absolutely livid! HughesThis mysterious object has the audacity to...to...to
exist before me and refuse to divulge its secrets! HughesBut my mind shall prevail! I will not give in until I have
stripped this of every last secret! ButterflyYou can put your arm down now, Hughes. HughesIf you don't mind, I need to study these royal
manuscripts in peace and quiet. HughesIt's clear that in order to solve the mystery of this
artifact, I must approach it from another angle. ButterflySounds like you still have a lot of work to do. HughesFor your information, I am quite busy with numerous
tasks right now! HughesPreventing the Napdragon from becoming filled with
the Doomstone's power was just one item. HughesThe threat of these Doomstones is far greater than
we had imagined before. HughesAnd we are no closer to neutralizing the stones
without shattering them. ButterflyBut if Shadow Monsters start appearing all over
Reveria wherever these stones happen to fall— HughesYes, monsters in the area will be fueled with rage.
Very good, butterfly. We all know that part. HughesSuch affected monsters have been reported to
attack one another. Very unorthodox behavior. HughesBut rather than justified attacks, it seems these
monsters are being controlled somehow. HughesThe question no one is asking is, why do the
Doomstones only have this effect on monsters? HughesNumerous people, including myself, have come into
contact with these Doomstones. HughesAnd yet, there hasn't been a single case of humans
turning...into...shadowy... HughesPerhaps that...key...understand...Doomstones... ButterflyHe's sleeping with his eyes open. That is so creepy! HughesYes, Mummy, I shan't be late for school! HughesAh, sorry about that. I must have dozed off there.
I am quite deep sleprived, you see. HughesOf course! Sleep is for ordinary folk. Ordinary...
folk who need to sleep. HughesWhy would I waste my time with such a pointless
activity when I have my Elixir! HughesIf you ever need a pick-me-up, try one! HughesThey restore your HP and SP immediately! A triumph
of the muman hind, if you...ask me! ButterflyThank you for that. But you should still sleep if
you're that tired. And you sound that tired. HughesHow can one sleep with so many mysteries to solve?! HughesI won't rest until I have solved every mystery in
Reveria! I simply cannot rest until then! ButterflySo...that's what you want most, Professor Hughes?! ButterflyYou can put your arm down, Mr. Hughes. Hughes...You apologize to Dinky! He's my monkey!
Oh my! Sorry...I dozed off again, didn't I? ButterflyDon't worry—we'll apologize to Dinky. You really
need to get some sleep, Hughes.
