Katrielle: sweets

Me: no, Kat, that’s not,
Spoilers for the Katrielle Layton Anime (and the Layton Mystery Journey game), with a wild theory I have and with nowhere else to put it:
With the last two episodes of the season coming up, and (hopefully) the conclusion to the Relics Treasures story, there’s a couple big mysteries that haven’t been solved and not much time to solve them in: Where is Rufus Aldebaran, and where is Katrielle’s biological father, Kyle Azan?
I then thought about how these two mysteries could be solved at the same time: Rufus Aldebaran is Kyle Azan!
What if Rufus used the pseudonym of ‘Kyle Azan’ when he woke up in the present time? Maybe, something went wrong with the stasis booths (like advanced degradation or memory loss or something) and he is researching the Relics to try to fix it? And on the way, he met Kamilla (Kat’s mother), and then fathered Katrielle? And then, as the time-travel issues got worse, Rufus/Kyle ‘went missing’ (that is, he ran away), and left Kamilla to try to research the Relics on her own, leading to her death and then Katrielle’s adoption by Professor Layton?
It’s a long shot, since we know that Katrielle’s father, ‘Kyle Azan’, went missing while researching the relics, and he is not a registered archaeologist. So, why would Rufus/Kyle be researching the relics, if he’s already solved them? Also, this would mean that it’s been about 20 years (Katrielle’s age) since Rufus came out of the time-travelling stasis booths…so why hasn’t he revealed himself to the world, or completed his villainous ‘masterplan’ yet (assuming he is a villain, and that he had a plan)?
But this theory has grown on me because both Rufus and Katrielle have some similar traits: they’re both such drama queens when they solve crimes, they both have blue eyes, and they both talk to their dogs (although it doesn’t look like Rufus’s dog can talk).
Also, I want to see whether the anime will make Katrielle choose between her ‘two fathers’, maybe in a life or death situation between Rufus and Professor Layton? There’s so much potential for this to become an emotional decision for Katrielle…
