It's not a hallucination.
You won't be able to contact your mother or anyone from your world unless they are here as well.

Hi Red, I'm Akihisa Yoshii! Nice to met you!

...Wait, the hospital? What happened?!

[text]

[palletless]

...my world?

i give up, i dont get this stuff
it sounds like a bad movie
i'll sort that out when they release me i guess

tooxt

[palletless]

it's a long story
i'm better now anyway

mostly
i'm sort of scared to check on my pokemon
i asked if there was a pokemon center around and the doctor just got confused

tex-- wow i just realized misspelling for me OOPS

[akihisaful]

Oh... Well at least you're doing better, yeah!

Pokemon? What's that?

shoosh i didnt even notice text --> video

[palletless]

this place really doesn't have pokemon?
that's really hard to imagine

hold on

[After a bit of fiddling with the confusing technology, Red eventually got the video to work. He was, indeed, in the hospital, and wrapped up ridiculously tight in his blanket, despite having an IV going in somewhere. The only things poking out at all were his hands and his neck up...and his pokedex. It was sort of cumbersomely handled, but he eventually got the camera to focus on the entry for bulbasaur.]

Like that. [His voice was almost embarrassingly raspy and faint, for that matter.]

[There's a small pause before the next text comes.]

How much have you been told about the situation here?

[palletless]

well, they started to explain it i think
but i sort of blacked out

i woke up here and the doctor said he was worried about my recovery first

text :')

[akihisaful]

Whoa, so that's a Pokemon? That looks something like I'd see in a video game, actually!

[not_that_sasuke]

What were you doing before you found yourself here?
You mentioned being in the hospital. Are you injured?

back to text

[palletless]

that's bulbasaur
it's not common where i'm from, but it's well-known as one of the best starter pokemon
i have one, but he's evolved in to a venusaur by now
he's sort of too big for me to take out in here anyway
he'd break my bed

and probably my legs

[palletless]

i'm not injured anymore
they said i'm mostly here for observation now

and i was trying to get home
i think i made it half-way?
then it sort of all blurs together

[not_that_sasuke]

Trying to get home from where?

[palletless]

mount silver
a blizzard hit and

well, i don't really want to think about that part right now
i just want to get home
my mom's probably worried sick

[akihisaful]

Bulbasaur... Oh okay, it's a dinosaur and has a bulb on its back, that's why it's called Bulbasaur?

[Breakig...legs....]

And something that would be used as a bio-weapon?

[GOOD THING HIMEJI-SAN AND MINAMI AREN'T AROUND TO HEAR THIS.]

[palletless]

um

#003 Venusaur, the Seed Pokemon. The flower on its back catches the sun's rays. The sunlight is then absorbed and used for energy. 6'07", 220.5lbs.

he's really big, that's all

[not_that_sasuke]

[...Well. That's ominous.]

I'm sorry.
You might have to wait a while before you go home.
If you're feeling better I would recommend asking one of the doctors if you can get the formal introduction to this place before you try to do anything.

[akihisaful]

Oh.

Whew, okay, that sounds a little too heavy for anyone I know to pick up.

[palletless]

i'm not very good at sitting patiently and waiting

but i guess that's how i got stuck in this situation


bah

[This was almost a sensible and mature reaction until that 'bah', Red.]

[palletless]

slate is heavier
i'd really rather have them out
it'd be too disruptive i guess

but it's really quiet here and it's sort of eerie

[not_that_sasuke]

It will help, trust me.
I could try to explain as much as I can right now, but even I don't know the whole story yet.

[palletless]

i'd appreciate that
if anything, it's something to do

not that i'm not happy to be better, but hospitals are sort of boring

[akihisaful]

Well it is the hospital after all, I think you should keep them away for now.

[palletless]

i guess
when i had my tonsils out they let me bring straw
but he sort of zapped some of the machines...

i thought mom was going to strangle him

[akihisaful]

Uh... Straw? Zapped?

[Last time he checked, straws don't electrocute things...]
