[ Maribelle's touch on her shoulder is gentle and comforting, and Uki moves toward her unconsciously, seeking her reassurance. She doesn't have much experience with physical contact, kind or otherwise. She's only just started to get used to it, and it reminds her of being at home with the family she's only recently found for herself.
Maribelle's words might be scary, but she's promising that she'll be safe - and Uki believes the sincerity in those words wholeheartedly. She's sniffling, and the tears are starting to spill, but instead of fear, it's from the tension leaving her. ]
Thank... Thank you. I don't mean to cry...
[ She moves closer to Maribelle, to thank her for her kindness and move in for a hug, if she'll let her. ]
