[Ditching work in favor of a personal day had been a fabulous idea in Poland's opinion. There was always work that needed to be done when one was a nation. Even if he had managed to finish everything expected of him today a new stack of paperwork would just be waiting in it's place for him tomorrow. Booooring.

Getting a manicure, exfoliating his pores and giving his pet pony a blueberry facial seemed like a way better use of his time. Besides, if he was going to have to do twice the amount of work tomorrow, he definitely deserved today off to relax! It was only fair, his boss would totally understand. Probably.

But... somewhere between putting cucumber slices over his eyes and taking them off something weird happened. The vision of birds and the odd woman rambling on about magic was definitely not normal. Also he was suddenly no longer in his house and there were strangers everywhere was totally worrisome. That and he was out in public in his pink fluffy bathrobe with matching slippers and green gunk all over his face.

Shying away from anyone who might be getting too close for comfort, Poland fumbles through the pockets of his robe looking for the tube his mud mask had come out of.]

Oh my god, like, what the heck is the active ingredient in this stuff, kompot?

[vytis]

[Well, there's a voice Lithuania recognizes. He's had some time to explore the area and grow even more confused about his entire situation, but he did eventually drift back to where he'd come from originally, hoping the area could give him a few more answers.

Poland isn't exactly an answer, but he's something familiar at least, even if this is Poland inexplicably in his bathrobe. Lithuania approaches--shouting would draw attention to Poland and Poland probably wants that even less than usual when he's looking like that.]

Lenkija, you're here too?

[notyetlost]

[Hearing his name in Lithuanian, Poland's head snaps back up so quickly he almost loses the towel wrapped around his head.]

Liet! What's here? What's going on, I'm totally freaking out!

I swear I was totally at my house like a minute ago. I mean I woke up today and was not in the mood to push paper around my desk all day and I mean I could have gone in and just pretended to work like I always do on Fridays, but I mean that required putting on pants and I was totally not prepared to make that kind of commitment so I ditched and I was in the middle of rinsing off the blueberry facial I gave Mr. Pony and then suddenly fwoosh everything went dark! Well. I guess darker I'd had cucumber slices on my eyes, I mean they don't actually do anything but they sort of complete the whole therapeutic look I had going on so things were already dark. But then I saw this bird, right? Then there were like a bunch of birds, totally out of nowhere and then some lady I didn't know was all like 'magic this' and 'magician that' so then I was like 'um... you're kinda crazy,' but speaking of strangers--

[Poland abruptly rushes to hide behind Lithuania, clinging to the back of his shirt tightly.]

[vytis]

[Typical Poland. It's kind of a relief--something normal in this ocean of ridiculousness that was a magic academy in who-knows-where.]

Well, I don't really know much more than you, but I guess this is an academy for magicians? [He gestures to the academy, making a wider sweeping motion than he would otherwise do because Poland is busy hiding behind him.]

[notyetlost]

But we're not magicians! Or at least I'm not. I guess you were when you were all pagan-y...

Liet, did you relapse and get us totally cursed?

[vytis]

What--no! [Lithuania sounds a bit indignant, really.] And it's not as if I'm Romania or something anyway.

[notyetlost]

I was just asking, jeez! [Poland does the sign of the cross at the back of Lithuania's head just in case.]

Who do we talk to to go home?

[outspoken]

( Serra just happens to overhear Poland mumbling to himself. Well, it makes sense she's always listening for the latest piece of gossip to use on someone but this isn't useful gossip!! )

What? You there! What did you say? ( Poland, I know you're shy but Serra isn't here to make things easy. ) The main ingredient in what?

( Gasp! )

Have we been poisoned? Aiee!!! You mean they intend to kill us?!

[notyetlost]

[Poland freezes abruptly, staring at Serra like a deer caught in the headlights of oncoming traffic.]

E-eh?!

[outspoken]

What's that supposed to mean? I heard you say it! You said we were poisoned! ( Not catching on or deciding to ignore it? You decide. ) Ooh, this is so annoying. . .

( Beginning to rummage through her bag. )

[notyetlost]

N-no um that's not...

I didn't... [Oh the things he would do for something to hide behind right now. While Serra pulls through her bag, Poland backs up a few steps to prepare for running away.]

[outspoken]

( Serra will ultimately find a small bag and reach in to take out a pill for him. )

Here. It's an antitoxin. I don't have my Recover so this will have to do.

[notyetlost]

[Poland knows better than to take stuff from strangers. Unless it was something that looked cool or he just really wanted it. Neither really applied in this situation.

What she calls the pill reminds him of something familiar though.]

Wait.

Antitoxins and Recover? You mean like, the stuff people use to heal with in videogames?
