Mr. Łukasiewicz has been acting very strangely. Um... does anyone here know him well? I think he may have been brainwashed, but I can't think why....

[battle_maid]

I know him a bit. What's he doing?

[properwhitemage]

Well, he's acting, uh--

["Normal" would be so rude. Anyway it's not normal.]

He's wearing a business suit and talking about baseball.

[battle_maid]

[Tries to picture this... failing...]

Uh, yeah. He's certainly brainwashed. I could never see him talking about a sport or ever wearing a suit.

[properwhitemage]

I don't think he did anything to provoke the police... I don't know why they did it.

[bustydefense]

The mysteries of this place...

[properwhitemage]

It's... pretty unsettling, miss. I hope it's not permanent.

[bustydefense]

If it's been like this for some time, I'm afraid it may be.

[stateofworry]

E-eh? Brainwashed? What's he doing?

[properwhitemage]

Um... he was wearing a business suit this morning, and he interrupted me while I was meditating, called me a "little scamp," and told me to play outside.

[stateofworry]

...

Poland... what have you done now?

... Thanks for telling me.

[prodigious_mage]

Yeah. It just happens sometimes for no reason.

[properwhitemage]

I hope we can find a way to cure it. I wouldn't want to see it happen to--

[Ahem.]

I wonder how they do it.

[prodigious_mage]

I don't think there's anything we can do. And don't worry, sis. They'll never get me alive.

[hisironcross]

It's an accomplishment that he's made it this far without being brainwashed. What's he doing, acting like a man?

[properwhitemage]

Uh... actually, yes sir.

[hisironcross]

I was right, after all! For how long now?

[properwhitemage]

For a few days now. I thought it was one of the temporary spells, but it's been too long now.

I don't think you should be so amused about it, sir.
