[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...

[Execution? Police officers can't do that, can they? Should he clear that up? More importantly--]

Are we? But he lives next door, so he's not over to make dinner or play with the children every night.

[With his somehow clueless and innocent tone suggesting the response is genuine, he may be raising more questions than answers.]

I sort of thought it might just happen some day, so I haven't considered anyone seriously enough to ask yet. I'm still fairly young, after all. If I settle down now, what kinds of experiences will I miss out on in the future? Would a ring get in the way during operations? Can I even wear one in this form? And what if I have less time for work? I'd like to keep dedicating myself to my patients, so I probably shouldn't make too many other commitments...
