Hi, thanks for the speedy response! No popups appear unless they are in fact not in the party or one of them is cursed, in which case, adding them to the party or uncursing them removes the popup. However, the game still doesn't allow for the quest to launch even once the pop-ups are cleared.
Recently, these two quests alone also have not been registering the protagonist as a part of the party. Removing him and readding him to the party does not solve this, so a popup will appear for that.
