[Terra doesn't respond over the journal. She doesn't know what to say. But at least she can still be with him, and so she heads out of the house to the next door down. After a moment of indecision, she knocks.]

[...Might want to knock again, Terra. He probably didn't hear it this time.]

[She knocks again.]

...Adell?

[The louder knock catches his ear from his room. At first he debates answering it, but he decides it's for the best if he did. If it's who he thinks it is... he'd be fine with seeing her. So he gets up and answers the door.]

Hey.

[...He looks about what you might expect. Down, confused, hurt. His eyes look a bit swollen and his voice is tired. It doesn't look as though he's been crying, but rather, forcing it back for now.]

What I know is limited, but... I'll do what I can.

And... I'm sorry to hear about your friend.

[He gives an acknowledging noise about Luka for now. He appreciates the sentiment, but right now he's gotta get this done.]

What can you tell me about Mu, Litchi? And Murakumo units in general?

Originally, they were created in order to explore the Boundary. Humans... well, to put it simply, humans can't survive prolonged exposure to it. [Nevermind that Arakune sort of survived it. She knows firsthand that it doesn't last.]

...Unfortunately, though, after a while, they began to be used as living weapons. I only know of thirteen that were created, and have only ever seen three of them. Mu... certainly seems to be the most powerful.

[Here, she sighs, trying to force down an internal struggle. Admit to what happened before, or not? She may as well, since what she sensed back then may have meant something.] ...I think I may know why, as well.

The Boundary? What's that?

...And what do you think it is that made her so powerful, Litchi?

[Normally, he wouldn't feel so bad for telling Adell a few things. Especially given how Adell did so much for Noel when she turned into Kusanagi, and even last year when Terumi took her. But there's just one part of his statement that is really bothering him. It's bothering him enough that he is reluctant to speak about it all.]

You want to tell everyone in Luceti?

...I don't want to say anything I don't have to. And if I can avoid revealing who Mu is, you can damn well bet I won't. Problem is, people are going to come looking and investigating if I don't give them something. And I can't lie about these kinds of things. It's not my style.

I'm not gonna say everything that happened. Last thing I want to do is put Noel in danger. But the reason I want to know is because I need to understand what exactly Mu was.

[...He pauses.]

...I know this is a lot to ask of you. ...And if you don't want to say anything, I won't force you to. I know all of this can be sensitive.

[Sensitive is an understatement, but Ragna won't admit to that. No, this is more like an attempted breach of privacy on Noel that he refuses to commit. It's something that if Adell should find out about, it's from her. Or at least, not Ragna.]

Then you don't have to lie, because you can go and tell them that you don't know a damn thing. If you want answers, wait for Noel to come to you with them.

Alright. The only thing I worry about is people taking matters into their own hands. I'm sure you can handle anything that comes your way, I just really hope it doesn't come to that.

[Adell was kind enough to support Robert when Vivi was sent home. Robert feels that he should at least try to do the same.]

... I... I am sorry. It is... a-always difficult when a friend is s-sent home.

[He knows on some level it's selfish - that he wants these people to stay in captivity with him - but... but he doesn't want to forget. Doesn't want them to forget.]

Yeah, it is. ...I'll be fine, though. Just... needed a little time.

[He's just so tired of this crap.]

[Robert can't blame him, honestly. From what he saw of Luka, she was an intelligent and polite individual, and he'd really wanted to help her.]

... Is Luka Megurine's home at least... a good one?

[So many people would be going back to some violent place. It didn't seem like she deserved that.]

...Depends if you define most people seeing her as little more than a machine "good" or not.

I get the impression it's not a world filled with a lot of trouble, though.

[Hearing this announcement only days after Usopp's departure...]

Yeah, I'll wish her luck. [He's sorry, Adell]

Thanks, Sanji. I'm sure she'd thank you too.
