Tue is next to enter the room, moving gracefully across the floor in another frilly, flowing dress. A servant Yue thought was a statue pulls out Tue's seat for her and then gingerly slides it back in against the table. Shortly thereafter, Nue and then Shinobi are seen at the lunch table. Then the group is joined by a woman that Yue recognizes. Judging by her expression, she recognizes Yue too.
"Y-Yue? Is that really you?"

Yue feels her heart pounding. Who...Who is this woman...? Why did she seem so familiar? "Well...I am Yue but...w-who are you? It feels like I should know you..." Yue absentmindedly approaches the woman.

The woman suddenly embraces Yue tightly. "My baby girl is home at last!" She cries as she hugs Yue.

Yue finds herself returning the hug. "M-Mom...?" She says, tears rolling down her face.

"Yes, sweetie, it's me. I'm your mom." Her mother is crying openly now as she hugs Yue tighter, proclaiming that she thought she'd never get to see her again.

"Mom...Mom..." Yue cries into her mother's embrace. She hadn't realized how much she missed having her mother around, but now it hit her all at once, causing her to breakdown.

Her mom just sinks down to the floor with her, hugging and crying. It's quite the display, but the servants pretend not to notice the embarrassing scene. Tue looks away awkwardly, while Nue stares off into space. Shinobi ends up coming over to join them in the hug.

Yue fully enjoys the hug with her mother and father, but looks at Tue and Nue with pleading eyes to try and get them to join in. Charm check: UqEj46o54d6 4d6

Nue doesn't even notice, staring off blankly into space like she is. Tue looks at Yue, mutters 'baka' and turns her nose up. No sooner has she done that then she somehow gets roped into it anyway, much to her dismay. She doesn't try very hard to get out, but does mutter 'baka' several more times, causing both parents to chuckle.

Yue stares at Nue, trying to get her to notice. "Jiiiiiiiiii..."

There is a pouf sound as Nue is replaced by a random log. She used ninja tricks to escape Yue's gaze!

Yue's eyes widen for a moment, just before her stomach growls loud enough to be heard by the entire room.

Everyone laughs a little (yes, even little miss baka) and after drying some tears and washing up, lunch is served. Nue reappears at some point, though Yue is too fixated on food to notice exactly when and how.

Yue tilts her head and looks at Nue. "Wow...You're good." She says, her voice muffled by a mouthful of food.

Nue only locks eyes with her briefly in acknowledgement as she delicately picks at her food in much the same way that Tue is. Perhaps it's an etiquette thing? Well, Yue will probably be taught all these things later. She's only just rejoined her family, after all. It's been an exciting first half of the day. When lunch is finished, Yue's mother is eager to take her to the tailor to get her fitted for a whole new wardrobe full of clothing. She'll get lovely dresses, gowns, etc for special events (or even for all the time if she wishes, like Tue), and then they can spend the rest of the day catching up. Clearly Yue has been freed from that awful uncle of hers, especially since he was arrested and publicly marched through the streets by the Royal Guard, so naturally she wants to know all about her third daughter's life since then.

Yue smiles as she follows her mother around like a puppy. "So what do you want to hear about first, Mom?"

As her mom is leading her to the carriage to ride to the best tailor in the region, she inquires about how long Yue has been 'free' from her uncle's clutches and what she's been up to since.

"Ummm...I think it's been about...5 days? That sounds about right. It's been about 5 days since I punched Uncle Augustus in the groin when he tried to take Bubbles away from me while we were headed to Saffron together. Oh! I haven't introduced you to Bubbles and the others yet!" Yue says, releasing the 6 Pokemon she had brought with her when she left the Guild that morning. "Let me introduce you! These are Bubbles, Cuddles, Hearth, Cinnamon, Puddles, and Buzz! I have 3 more, but they're back at the Guild in Saffron."

Himari seems to think Yue's Pokemon are just adorable, not unlike her. The fact that Augustus got hit in the groin makes the story of Yue's escape all the better. After the brief summary of her escape, Yue is asked to recall her Pokemon while they enter the tailor's shop. Inside, the pair are approached by an older man wearing a smart-fitting suit and looking very professional.
"Ah, my lady Ravenbrandt! It is wonderful to see you again!" He proclaims, embracing Himari before noticing Yue. "Oh? And who is this charming young woman you have brought with you?"
"Yes, Romero, it has been quite some time, hasn't it? This is my other daughter, Yue. She's finally home again, and now I wish to get her the best wardrobe we can possibly give her." She replies with a smile.
"But of course, my dear lady! Nothing but the best for you and yours! If you'll just come with me, Lady Yue, I'll have my assistant get your measurements." He bows deeply to Yue, offering his hand for her to take.

Yue takes Romero's hand, allowing herself to be lead into the shop. In the meantime, she looks all around her, taking in the new environment she's in. She'd never been in a tailor's shop before and thus was very curious about it.
