[The grumpearl projects an image and this time it's of A.B.A, her chimeric form sprawled across one of Oran's many beds. She looks tired, more than usual, and especially for someone who's been out of commission for a couple of months.]

...It would appear that I've fallen ill. I'm...disappointed in myself, I don't fall ill, I'm supposed to be better than that. I survive, I rise, I'm supposed to be filled with potential. ...It's this body, it's weak, even now it's weak. Mightyena was kind enough to allow me back into the guild, and that's where I'll continue to recover. It feels bad... I feel bad...

[A pause.]

...I was aware throughout most of it, at least...I think I was. A lot of it amalgamated with my thoughts, swirling, like a dream. ....I know some of you were there, although it's possible that was also part of the dream. You should tell me if you were actually there or not, s-so I know what the reality really was. Please say you were there...

What else... Oh!

Before I succumbed, a very rude mongoose was able to tell me what my Pokémon species is called. She called it Type: Full. I like that...

...

[At this point, A.B.A isn't sure how to end her message, her stray thoughts just sort of...slipping out.]

I'm not sure what else to say...

I'm hungry. I can't buy snacks stuck in bed...

a.b.a. his bathsma-]

S-salt water is a lot rougher on me than fresh water is...

I- I can take showers and things if I'm careful, but after that first day when we came in I actually had a really bad rash...Dr. Denne kept me inside for a while after that...

[Case in point there's visions of the lil guy all bandaged up as he helps around the clinic. The good doctor was pretty alarmed by his condition!!]

You could probably build up an immunity if you simply continue to expose yourself to these irritants.

[Destroy your body for the beach, little boy. Just do it.]

But I suppose that's a good enough excuse. I do pity you, though.

[seacub]

Iiiiii...

[emporio why are you thinking so hard about soooooo many snakes that's so many snakes bud]

...don't know if that would completely work but I can ask Dr. Denne...?

It...It would be nice I guess, but it's not the worst if I can't go to the beach all the time...

[He does briefly think about a beach. It looks like a rather lovely one, but there's an incredible feeling of...sorrow attached to it. Loss, even.]

[quirkynote]

[It makes sense that he'd feel loss.

Loss of the beach.

If he doesn't get his act together and build his immunity.]

I'm sure the doctor will agree.

Until then...do be careful with the rain. I've heard it's particularly bad. Even for those who don't have allergies...

[seacub]

[Perhaps they could say....Life is a beach....]

I'll do my best!

It's definitely bad though...it's acting like the fog is. I wonder if it's something to do with the water cycle...pulling water from the fog, and then raining it back down...
