My mom swears that I'm gay because I went to San Francisco.  And when I was there, she called me and asked me how I was enjoying "the land of fruit and nuts."

Good thing she was in Florida, else she might've freaked out and beat the crap out of me because she dreamt that I turned gay.  Urgh, whatever.

She wonders why I never bother to call her anymore.

I was usually the target of Mom's abuse.  Never knew why.

Anywho, naptime.

My mom is bipolar and refuses to take her meds.  She abused us when we were kids due to her medication refusal and her bipolar causing psychotic symptoms.  We've locked her out of the house one time becuas she was drinking and got extremely pissed off at me over a DREAM that she had.  She smacked me around, knocked a bookcase down on top of me, and screamed at me because of a dream that she had. 

I'm glad she's in Florida.

I'm going to lay down for a nap and then take my steroids.

I'll pretend that they're Rare Candy. *Pops Prednisone and ABS*

I detached from my mom like that. 

And I just washed with the pine tar soap.  Now I smell like a wood pile.

It might, but I don't have any.  In the meantime, time to down a bunch of pills and then wash.

I also got new socks and underwear.

My half-brother (her husband) had scabies when he was a kid.  It was a nightmare. 

I got a cream to kill them and steroids to help with both the itching and my cough.  I also got soaps for itchy skin.  Got a pine tar soap that kills chiggers, so it should be useful for scabies.

Pretty bad, but at least it's not bronchitis again.

Yeah.  Though, my orders say to keep an eye on the cough and if it worsens, to just go to the ER.

As for the scabies... first time getting those.  I know exactly where i got them, too.  Already told my sis-in-law about it.  She should vacuum EVERYTHING.

*hugs*
WELCOME BACK

May want to be careful.  Scabies are contagious.

I HAVE PARASITES.

*Hypno stared at it.  He didn't design it for him; he designed it for the Kirlia.  The device was to aid both arms.  However, he wasn't in much of a position to refuse, and his braces were missing.  He could use it on his left arm, but that left the problem of dealing with his leg.*

*With his right hand, he took the device and fussed with it for a few minutes to remove just the left-arm brace.  Now the hard part was putting it on, as his spastic muscles and joints curled his arm into an unnatural position.  After a week without correction, the limb was especially tight and painful.*

"I may... ne-ed some help..."

I am not surprised.  I never had any hopes for it to begin with.  They gave Knuckles fingers.  FINGERS.

And the shower I took didn't help loosen up the phlegm.  And I can't take anything for it because I'm fasting.  Argleblargle

(Beware the monochrome twig... D: )

"You are in one of my previous backing's lab. He was such a genius... As for contingencies... Remember your designs for an improved harness-braces system?"

Mr. P walked up to behind Prof. Hypno, helping him to turn to face the back. There was something under a white sheet, to which Mr. P pulled away... Revealing said system... Exactly as Prof. Hypno had designed it.

*Hypno stared at it in disbelief.  It was all there; his design brought to life.  The arms of the mannequin were held in the perfect equilibrium that Hypno had pictured, yet they weren't restrained, as evidenced by the slight bouncing produced when the sheet was ripped away.  The tension in the elastic bands were perfect to simulate weightlessness!  There were so many who could benefit from it!*

"You... built it..."

*He designed it so that it could be made cheaply, and he wanted so much to be able to build it.  He had to build it, as he had made a promise for someone.  At the therapy center, there was a Kirlia who suffered from a type of muscular weakness that prevented the use of her arms.  Her Trainer was told that she may never be able to even lift her arms high enough to touch her own head.  Therapy for her was intense, but her Trainer couldn't provide the right type of therapy at home, and the center itself was ill-equipped to help her improve.  The Kirlia simply could not wear human orthoses.*

*So, Hypno set to work on designing an orthopedic device that would fit the Kirlia, and that she could wear away from the therapy center.  Providing her weakened arms with an exterior set of muscles would greatly help her to develop her own.  Hypno designed it to be lightweight and unobtrusive—the Kirlia could still go about her daily activities without it getting in the way.  The materials to make it would be low-cost and easy-to-find, with the actual braces themselves made with a 3D printer.*

*His own work had prevented him from building the appliance.  But, there in front of him was his invention.  His creation.  He could make that Kirlia's life better.*

"I can... save her now..."

"Cal-cu-la-tions...?"

*Hypno raised an eyebrow in confusion.  He had lost an entire week?  No wonder he couldn't find any strength to move; his only good muscles had started to atrophy!*

"Where... am I?  Wha-at... con-tingen-cies?"

*He once again tried to sit up, but was once again unsuccessful.*

Blargh.  I wanted to work on a GLaDOS/The Mangle crossover pic, but i lack the energy to do so.  Also, coughing constantly is not helping matters.

*Hypno stared at him, puzzled.  He could recall leaving the lab to go to physical therapy, and he could recall the proposal.  He could recall stopping to get dinner, but after that, everything was a blur.*

"How long... was I out?"

*Thinking, he could remember only vague impressions.  At some point, he had that proposal under consideration, but he couldn't quite remember exactly when.*

*Testing his limbs, he attempted to sit up, but couldn't find the strength, falling back down.  His left limbs ached, and he idly wondered just how long they had been left contracted without any sort of intervention.  Putting his braces on was going to be extremely uncomfortable.  Going without made walking nearly impossible.*

"Wha-at hap-pened?  Where... am I...?"

*Hypno looked around to try to pinpoint the voice, but was unsuccessful.  Using his right arm, he shifted himself until he was raised up on his elbows.  He couldn't make out any details beyond the bed he was in, but with how the voice echoed, he assumed that the room was somewhat large and sparse.*

"Who's... there?"

*A few days had passed since the incident at the restaurant.  When Hypno failed to return to the lab that night, Birch was informed by Mr. P that the Pokémon had suffered a seizure and was recovering at the closest Pokémon Center.*

*However, Petalburg's Pokémon Center had no records of a Hypno being admitted that day.*


*His head was stuffed full of cotton and his eyes were coated in crust that held his eyelids together.  Hypno forced them open and winced as bright overhead lights assaulted his vision.  With a groan, he waited for his eyes to adjust and he looked around.  The walls were unfamiliar, and it felt as if a cloud hung over everything.*

*He couldn't remember what happened.  He knew that at some point, he was at a restaurant, where he had stopped for dinner.  Between that and him opening his eyes, it was a thick fog.*

"Hel-lo...?"

*His voice cracked and his throat was dry.  His head had taken on a dull ache and he couldn't focus his vision.*

"Where am I?  I... I can't..."

*He tried to raise himself, but his limbs refused to cooperate.  It took him a while to dully register that he wasn't wearing his orthopedic braces, and thus his left arm and leg had resumed their contracted and twisted positions.*

"Any-one there...?"

Still hanging in there.  I had to meet with housing today and it wore me out.  I have absolutely no energy and no appetite.  My chest is tight and my coughs are not productive in the least.

*As Mr. P looked over the designs, Hypno took his time with eating his meal.  He mulled over Mr. P's earlier request and had to admit that it enticed him.  He could benefit so many disabled Pokémon with his research.  He could better so many lives.  Custom-fit orthoses, advanced prostheses, mobility equipment with proportions to better fit Pokémon...  Helping others like himself was one of the main reasons why he spent any free time designing and building gadgets.  If only his fellow scientists were more interested in helping Pokémon than helping humanity through Pokémon.  That was one of the things that bothered him; any research wasn't to benefit the Pokémon.  The Pokérus research was to benefit Trainers.  The Poké Ball research was to benefit Trainers.  His robot was taken so that it could benefit the other humans and Trainers.*

*Prof. Hypno chewed on a mouthful, but didn't swallow it.  His train of thought stopped and a chill raced up his spine.  His head felt disconnected, and his mane puffed out.  He went to swallow his food, but couldn't seem to do so.  Reaching for a glass of water, he noticed the tremor—in his right hand.*

*His stomach bubbled and his vision blurred briefly as a wave of dizziness moved through his head and the world turned on its side.  He tried to drink, but his throat wouldn't work.  Coughing and sputtering, water went up his nose and he spit up the mouthful he had been working on.  The tremor in his right arm got worse, and the cup spilled.*

*His chest tightened, and his joints locked.  He barely got a word out before his vision was gone, and the dizziness exploded into a sensation that he had hoped to never experience again.  Any connection he had to the world was gone.  His muscles contracted violently, and he lost his balance, sliding off of the bench and hitting the floor in a grand mal seizure.*

(It's moving pretty slow, anyway.  I'll invite the Plot Contrivance Fairy to help.  Need to get Prof. Hypno where Mr. P wants him, and the whole Zigzagoon thing can be wrapped up.  I'll also ditch the colored text because it's annoying to format.)

QuickEdit: (I figured out something that'll allow us to skip ahead a few days.  It'll get Prof. Hypno where he needs to be, and the Zigzagoon thing can be wrapped up.  Mulberry and Hemlock won't be needed after this, though Birch may stick around, as he's going to be reporting his findings to the public.)

(Basically, the Shiny Zigzagoon is Patient Zero and there's a connection between its variation of Pokérus and the Monochrome Pokémon.  As for getting Prof. Hypno where he needs to go; his type of CP puts him at a high risk for seizures.  Thus, the Plot Contrivance Fairy is going to have a little fun...)
