Matt was already beginning to look back at the purple fog, but he was drawn away by the sheer demand in Alexei's voice to stop looking that way. He blinked, looking up at him.

"Unown?"

He had no idea what he was talking about.

"What about them?"

Oh, he’d done it again—

Unless the Pokémon in question were part-Rock type the other wouldn’t know anything about them!

“N-nothing,” he continued quietly as he looked around warily. It was like they were in another fucking dimension altogether, but at the same time they were still on the same plane of existence.

Shit, why did the thoughts of a multiverse even bother him in the first—oh, that’s right, the miasma.

“Just…stay near me, I’ll… I’ll get us the fuck out of here, somehow…” he went on as he used his left foot to reach for the cane and attempted to kick it up. While he did struggle with getting it, he finally managed to do so—

With one hand on the cane, the other on his phone, he continued to fiddle around with the ominous app that was installed on his device (the one he couldn’t delete, the one that contained the report) and watched as some of the letter-shaped Pokémon began flying around like it was nothing.

There was something that caught his attention, and hopefully Mattie was sane enough to stay near him as he slowly, very slowly began to make his way out.

Looking at the list of named Pokémon within the report, his brows furrowed together—what the hell was Thundurus doing listed there? Dialga and Palkia too—while those names didn’t ring any bells in his head (being a Unovan native) he stared at the screen for a few more moments.

“C’mon, Mattie… let’s… get out of here.”



purple tainted with black; strange figures fly out of the cracks. What the fuck is an understatement at this point.

How will they get out?

The unown still confused Mattis. He hadn't heard of them before. Would he ask Alexei later?

Now he felt like a disappointment, like he was the heavy weight. His friend was too busy with an injury to take care of his friend... he sighed, trying to muster up his own courage to get over his nightmares that he just lived.

"I'm coming. Don't let go."

So he followed, not looking at the colored smoke as they walked.

Of course it didn’t take too long for him to eventually concede—

That they may have been walking around in circles—was that even possible? Well, it was his fault they were stuck in this miasmic mess.

Come to think of it, he hadn’t noticed if there was a full moon in the skies before this entire shitshow with the Litleonids started. All he was certain of was the fact that this mist was messing with their heads, and getting out of there took all priority now.

And then his legs refused to work again.

He hadn’t kept track of how far they’d gone, but fact of the matter was, he couldn’t keep hobbling forever; the adrenaline rush was sure to crash out again—

“Mattie,” he began quietly, leaning against him once more.

“I… I can’t walk. Like. For real. My legs don’t wanna move anymore… I might need your help getting out of here after all…” he admitted.

Holy shit.

Now he was fucking terrified of losing his wings, permanently, if he kept up being a stubborn jackass like this.

Shit.

“Help,” he continued quietly, so softly only the other could hear. He didn’t want to look around the miasma, oh no—there was enough of that for several lifetimes to haunt him in his nightmares forever.

(3 / 3; time for them to get outta here but oh no his legs ain’t working, he’s terrified now)

Matt followed Alexei like a loyal dog. The full moon was gone now, away from sight as they walked around for what could have felt like forever.

If not for Alex protesting about his legs hurting.

"That's what you get for leaping out of your wheelchair, you dummy," he said, though it wasn't unkind. His voice was rather soft as he leaned down to scoop his legs up, holding the other's back with the other hand.

"Hold onto me. You're relatively light for your height, but I don't want to drop you."

So, he traveled further. "Do you know where to go?"

“Please don’t drop me,” he muttered as he felt his legs being swept out from underneath him—well, while not in the initially cheesy romantic situation he imagined this happening, was he—

Did Mattie pick him up, bridal-style?!

“I know, I know… I’m sorry, it’s just that… well, you know, how I met one of the deities from my homeland last year, and they mentioned the ‘Interdream Zone’ during that encounter,” he continued quietly. Hoo boy, he was really close to the bluenette’s face now.

Why the hell were his cheeks burning up?! What was happening?!

Snaking his left arm behind Mattie’s head and settling it around the other’s shoulder, he looked at the phone he now held in his left hand and scrolled through the menu.

“Just keep going straight—” he gestured, pointing ahead with his right arm.

And then he remembered something he’d very nearly forgotten to ask the other about.

“You—I saw that. I saw… was that… you know, the-the rings…?”

Did he dare to hope?

The proximity of Alexei's face to his made his skin turn rosy. Matt hoped that it wasn't too noticeable. He walked further along, going along the path he was told to go on.

Following the Unown.

And then he brought up the desires. The ones that Matt had before. If he didn't have a good grip on him, he did now.

"What do you mean?" he said, trying to deflect away from the conversation.

There was a noticeable break in the miasma—

“Take a left over there, but whatever you do, don’t look at the gas, he continued quietly, scrolling through the phone in his hand once more, looking over the words that had been recorded in the application so far.

And he hadn’t been able to get a single one recorded so far. What the hell was with these Unown being elusive?!

Once he was certain they were on the right path out of this mess, he leaned his head on the bluenette’s shoulder as the other tried to—wait, was he trying to deflect? He wasn’t so sure at this point anymore.

“I saw. I saw that. You know,” he said, feeling his ears burn up with blush once again.

“Us two? M…” he quieted down, trying to bring himself to say the next words.

“M-m-married? If—if not married, engaged?”

Matt took the left as he was told, though he avoided as much eye contact with the smoke as he could. It was difficult since it seemed like it wanted to consume them. He wondered if the Unown leading them out had something to do with preventing it from converging on them entirely.

But he almost got distracted when Alexei brought up whatever vision he had seen again. He clenched his teeth, wondering if he could break a tooth from grinding them so hard.

"I don't know what you're talking about. The mist, it's just some weird shit. You know that. It doesn't mean anything," he said dismissively.

It absolutely didn't mean anything.

He didn't want to think back on that supposed nostalgia when his parents had invaded his nightmares.

He dared to hope too much.

The way Mattie had replied, the way the words were said, he—he couldn’t help but wonder if the bluenette was avoiding the topic altogether or something.

A dark shadow darted around the two, it was one of the weird letter Unown Pokémon that he’d spotted floating around, chirping weird noises and then flying off in another direction. Several more, broken loose from whatever was in the miasma, followed not too long afterward.

Why did it hurt to breathe all of a sudden after the other had closed the door roughly on the discussion? He only wanted to know more—

The finality with how Mattie didn’t want to talk about what happened in the earlier part before things went to shit—

Another Unown circled around them, eyeing them suspiciously, before hovering close to them and then making strange chirping noises.

Well, it sounded like chirping to him anyway.

Instead of following the other Unown, this one was accompanying them, through the thinning miasma, until—

He looked up; the stars were starting to appear again through the thinning miasmic mist.

“We… we’re close, he said quietly.

Never mind that his throat had gone dry all of a sudden, like there was some kind of dread settling into his very being.



purple tainted with black; strange figures fly out of the cracks. Doubt settling in.

How will they get out?

The silence that he was met with seemed deafening. However, Matt continued on, since that was what they needed to do to get out.

The Unown flicked here and there, guiding them to where they needed to be.

Only when the sky was becoming clearer did Alexei speak. Matt glanced up, seeing how some of the stars aligned in the sky to form constellations that guided people.

Including the Litleo constellation that had been the main sight of the soiree.

"Thank goodness. I'm... exhausted."

“We both are,” he agreed.

Although in his case it was more on the mental kind of exhaustion; being confronted with the physical and then the mental kind of exhaustion was starting to do a number on him.

He couldn’t help but wonder why the other refused to talk about what he’d noticed in the mist before everything went to shit. It was like—it felt like the bluenette didn’t want to approach it head-on.

Eventually, the Unown that had been leading them disappeared—and they were back. Back out in the starry (albeit debris-scattered) courtyard, the miasma swirling and receding back whence it came.

The rest of the Unown had also vanished.

“We’re…safe now.”



safety at last.

How will they get out?

(Alex is crushed.)
