Eric is just returning at this time with one of the healers in tow when a panicked Alex accosts them. The healer tries to get Alex to calm down, assuring him that not only is his friend Leon just fine, but he also covered some of their healing expenses (so long as it is 200 crowns or less). The healer then approaches Yue and asks some of the same questions Eric did, just for posterity.

"Oh dear me, you mean to say that you have nary a clue as to Sir Leon's whereabouts as well, Sir Alex? This is most disconcerting." Yue says, looking worried. She sighs with relief when she hears that Leon has simply woken up first and left. As for the questions the healer asked her, she simply repeated what she had told Eric earlier.

The healer, much like Eric, can see nothing wrong with Yue. Rather than potentially further traumatize her, they instead simply state that Yue should merely continue living her life as normal. Other than some odd 'blips' in Yue's spirit, which could be literally anything and are most likely nothing, she is perfectly healthy aside from some slight abrasions from hitting the ground face-first when Espeon dropped her.

"Thank you kindly." Yue says, bowing to the healer. "You see, Sir Eric? I believe I said that there was nothing to be concerned about, did I not?" She says without a trace of smugness. "Now then..If you all would excuse me, I simply must earn the funds necessary so that I may afford some proper attire. This dreadful outfit simply will not do." Yue says, standing up as if to leave.

"Now hold on a moment there, missy." Brooke grabs hold of Yue's arm. "What's gotten into you? You're acting funny. Not that I don't appreciate the thanks - and the apology - but what brought this on?"

Alex let’s out a heavy sigh and and leans against a nearby bed. He didn’t know how, but he’d saved everybody. They may be cursed, but they were alive. Alex then remembers that it may be a good idea to tell everyone a bit about the curse. The problem was, there were other people present in the room. Alex simply said, “We need to talk about what happened last night. I need air first though. Come find me if you can’t wait till lunch to know.” With that, Alex left the room. He hoped that the curious members may follow him outside where they could discuss it in detail, but if not, at least they shouldn’t talk about the witch openly now.
Alex took his team to the same place he had been training the past two days after a quick stop to the shop. He picked up one basic ball with the money that Leon had given him two days ago. When he got there, he let everyone out and began his morning exercises and training. The bulk of the party already knew what to do. Alex singled out Ceo and started showing him the ways of his accuracy training. The Tropius took the training well and began to narrow his gust and razor lead attacks. With practice, Ceo would be just as accurate at Squirt and the others. Alex began noticing a sweet smell in the air after awhile. The others in the group began to turn their attention to Ceo after a bit as well. Alex thought for a minute and looked around for any other bystanders.
(Alex does morning focused training with Squirt, Stout, Allure, Miry, Mauve, and Ceo. +1 accuracy checks for the day. Also, he purchased one basic ball, and Ceo uses Sweet Scent.)

Yue tilts her head. "What do you mean? All that has happened is that I have started to consider my speech and actions beforehand."

"That's exactly what I mean. You didn't use to do that, why start now? Not that I'm complaining, but..." Brooke trails off, unsure why this is bothering her so. "I don't know. It just don't seem like you, is all."

"Ah. Well, it once was near impossible for me, but when my heart stopped beating earlier today it brought with it a sense of serenity that makes it quite simple indeed for me to think before acting."

Leon was left quite confused as he scratched his head being called an adult again before shrugging 'I guess I am a lot taller than him...though I wonder where he got those smoke bombs' he thought heading back to the guild to get Toadstool and Stunfisk healed.
Leon walked into the infirmary surprised to see Yue and Brooke there. He handed over Toadstool and Stunfisks pokeballs along with the fee over to a healer, before looking to Brooke and Yue bowing his head a bit "I'm very sorry...I didn't get the chance to say that earlier because one of you was gone and the other was still sleeping, but I want to apologize for getting that person so riled up and getting us into such a dangerous situation. If you do not want to work with me in the future I'd understand" he said feeling guilty that he'd had a hand in nearly getting the party killed.

"When your heart... stopped..." Brooke shakes her head. "Hellfire and damnation. This is too crazy for me. I think Alex is right, I need some air."
She brightens as Leon comes into the infirmary. "Leon! Glad t'see you're all right. Wasn't all your fault, just... be more careful next time, okay?"

Leon smiled raising his head glad that at least Brooke seemed to forgive him as he nodded to her request to be more careful in the future “Of course I would never want to do something that put you, Yue or Alex in danger. I promise to be more careful if we’re ever in a similar situation. You’re my friends I don’t want anything bad to happen to you.” He said

"Sir Leon, you have nothing to apologetic for. Rather, the fault lines squarely on my shoulders for so thoughtlessly rushing in even after Sir Alex warned me of the danger present. Please except my heartfelt apology for exposing you to such unnecessary peril." Yue says, stand up and bowing her head in apology to Leon.

Leon looked confused, looking at Yue as though she was a mythic creature. Leon checked a couple times to make sure it was really Yue before craning his neck lightly making sure her eyes were focused "Um Yue, not that I do not appreciate your sudden bout of politeness, but are you alright? You seem to have gained a different pattern of speech. Did you hit your head at all during the battle?" he asked.

"I can assure you, Sir Leon, that besides my heart having ceased, my breathing being non-existent, and my absolutely *horrendous* state of dress, I am as perfectly healthy as I always was. As far as my personality is concerned, the only thing that has changed is that I am much calmer than before and therefore quite capable of thinking my speech and actions through." Yue says, giving Leon a curtsy using the tail of her coat.

"Your heart stopped? That's...odd, but you're perfectly healthy beyond that. Well, I suppose it's good your not injured, and of course, I forgive you if I hadn't riled her up. Your running in likely wouldn't have upset her as much. I suppose I understand your reasoning behind your new careful way of speech, but I must ask. Why are you being so formal? We're friends you don't need to call me sir" he said smiling a bit, taking this as just a new chapter in Yue's strangeness.

"Oh, my apologies, Leon. I intended it to be a sign of respect, but I do suppose it is a bit too formal considering everything we've been through together." Yue says, sighing lightly.

Leon smiled "No need to apologize, I'm not angry that you were formal just letting you know you didn't have to be with me if you didn't want to. Speaking of Alex has anyone seen him?" Leon asked looking at Brooke and Yue.

"You just missed him. Said he was going out for some air. I don't blame him, it's been a helluva day. He asked us to meet him for lunch, though, wanted to talk about... yesterday?" Brooke ponders. "Huh. Guess it was yesterday, at that. Anyhow, I reckon I'm going to head out too. Try and get my head sorted out and my feet on the ground. What're your plans?"

"I suppose I shall try and find a few...donors in order to increase my funds." Yue says, with a giggle. "Well then, I shall take my leave for the time being. Shall I see you when we convene for our midday meal?"
