Pelipper Unmail: CK and his pokemon please let this work
(@anotherscreed)
[A video is attached. The first few seconds are glitching to the point of being incomprehensible, before the picture stabilizes.
The camera angle is clearly from a Pokémon's level, likely Anima's. The surroundings certainly aren't Hisui. There's a paved road, a glimpse of tall and much less organic buildings—and, of course, a blond man who must be CK bleeding on the ground as a Pelipper flies off.
Looks like this did work to get him out of Hisui! Unfortunately, he doesn't look like he's in great shape from that Alpha Ursaring.
"The fuck happened?" he groans, a hand pressed to his chest. It does little to stop the bleeding from the several large gashes spanning the length of his torso.
A man in a white hoodie, an Absol trailing behind him—that's got to be Des—approaches and visibly winces at the state CK's in.
"Hey man," Des says eloquently, pulling his other arm up to sling it over his shoulders. "Hospital. Explain more later."
CK makes an incredibly pained noise as he's moved, and when he speaks, his voice comes out ragged. "Or you could... explain while we walk," he says.
"Yeah, sure, alright!" Des says, starting to move. The camera follows them from behind, not giving viewers a good look at either of their faces. "We're most of the way there already, I didn't—I wasn't sure if it would even work but I'm really glad it did—Pelipper Mail. Opened it on my blog, tried to unmail you and your Pokémon, thank fuck it worked."
"So that's... how that... works," CK says slowly. The sidewalk is uneven, and he staggers going over it, leaning heavily into Des's side.
There is also, when the camera pans down briefly, a visible trail of blood drops on the cement.
"Hey. Hey! Stay with me, okay? Didn't get you out of the 1800s just so you could die on me now!" There's an edge of panic to his voice. "We're almost there, promise. Just hang on."
There is a sign for the hospital visible in the frame, at least.
CK shakes his head, still leaning heavily on Des. "Fuck off," he says, the words slurring slightly. "Not gonna... die 'cause of a stupid... Pokémon."
"Good! Don't."
The video follows them into a white and sterile building which certainly looks like a hospital. Des doesn't hesitate in barreling over the threshold, as fast as he can while supporting most of CK's weight, and shouting, "Hey! My cousin needs help!"
Multiple hospital employees spring into action, though none of them are in range when CK's knees buckle under him, to the point where Des is the only thing keeping him upright.
"Shit, hey—no, no, you can't—" If Des sounded like he was starting to panic earlier, he really is now. "You are not gonna die because of some stupid Pokémon, you said it yourself—"
What comes out of his mouth next sounds pretty similar to CK. It starts with the same sound, ends with the same sound, but it's one syllable instead of two. It almost sounds like a word, maybe even a name: Clay?
Whatever it is, it makes CK lift his head a little. Which is the last thing the camera picks up before medical professionals move in, blocking the view of Des and CK.
The video ends.]
