"Remember To Respect Your Elders, Master Richards." H.E.R.B.I.E looks back towards Michael. "We Share Our Deepest Apologies, Mr. Tapferin."
Franklin recoils with defensive hands and widen eyes. "Wha-? No, I was just point—oh, forget it." He pouts with his fist rubbing against his cheek. Looking to the side with narrowed eyes, he grumbles: "Where's that darn library, I guess?"
"A Goddamn Idiot!"
Caulifla continues to strike the air in a stationary, defensive stance, watching closing at the combative movements displayed on the television. The tomboy seems slightly red on the face. Meanwhile, as Kale looks through some more books around her, she couldn't help occasionally putting them aside to look at a mirror, at Caulifla, and finally the television.
"No way in hell he knows about the Tournament! When Infinite gets back, we're jumpin' him Keeru!"
The teen and his robo-butler stare blankly at Michael's response, almost out of disbelief. Just the rub the point home: Franklin subtlety shuffles in his chair while grasping his chin, and H.E.R.B.I.E blinks awkwardly with one pupil being smaller than the other.
"...Thematically Appropriate."
"I think you mean "too on the nose". Franklin looks back at Michael, noticing Julieta's disappearance. "Yeah, uh, we'll be on the lookout. Anyways, with Julie and Lune gone, I guess we're taking too much of your time..."
Kale perks up from her last view of the small mirror, and looks up...to notice Big on the couch? She's shaken, but subdues her shock to find...who's this new roommate? Clearly, this Kale isn't needed right now.
"Right, Sis. Uh, well, I'm going to...practice! Right, practice. I'll be right back!" She flash steps past the new arrival in a hurry.
"Huh—Keeru? What y'ah practic—?" Caulfila pauses to observe the sleeping Big and the new arrival. Shrugging them off, she returns to her fighting.

(Michael looks behind him at the mention of Julieta disappearing)
...I wouldn't exactly call it that, but I see your point. I'll be back to check on its progress.
(He walks out, briefly considering what to do next, before deciding to check on Oriana, clearly unaware of what's happened.)
(How should I put this?)
...If it helps, you're not that different from us, I think.
