NATE
Not everyone is comfortable with medicine, something Nate is more than aware of, so he doesn't push Aurelia to hurry into the room, onto the table. Doesn't bring any attention to it at all, instead busying himself around the room, so she could make her way inside without judgement, if she were worried about such a thing. It took only a moment for her to follow after him though, sitting up on the table.
"Helping is what I'm here to do." The words roll off Nate's tongue automatically, though he bites it when Aurelia continues, his head tipping to the side. Sunjata hadn't told him everything, and this was new knowledge, the information filed away behind an unchanging face. He nods though, indicating his understanding before his brows pull together. "Is that a thing that happened often? Portals into other places?" He doesn't mean to interrupt, but he can't stop himself from interjecting.
The rest of her encounter is explained, Nate's confidence slipping away by the second. Magic is not his strong suit, curses even less so, but he had to try, at least. "Other than feeling wrong and different, is anything changed? Any... aches, or marks anywhere?" Already, Nate felt a touch useless. Without anything physical, it was almost impossible to tell if anything had truly changed. He did have his ace, but that was something he wanted to avoid for as long as possible, something he wanted to save for last. Instead, he goes through the motions, taking note of Aurelia's heartbeat, her breathing, searching for anything that seems out of sorts.
Nate is as quick and unobtrusive as he can be, not wanting to make this experience any more uncomfortable than it needs to be. Especially as that need begins to grow the further along he goes without finding anything wrong. After a thorough examination, Nate steps back, the grin on his face a touch awkward. "As far as I can tell, you're perfectly healthy. I do have one more test I can try, but... it's a bit intrusive."

I am the problem
And you just sit there watching
And you just sit there watching
