[has his hands tucked into his pockets now] Well, to be fair, "everyone" is a bit of an exaggeration. Some haven't been touched by this sudden language loss syndrome, but for those of us who have--especially those few who are particularly gifted in that area--it's very, very bad. Not to mention annoying, but well, I'm sure you understand.

[his tone becomes a little more serious now] But Oliver does bring up a fair point: why the loss right now? What triggered it? And what's your name, since you already know ours? I'd dare to ask what you are as well, but I have a feeling your physical form might have something to do with memories in some fashion. Correct?
