Making riceballs certainly is easier than Alluka expected. She's glad it's so easy, even if she's not sure whether Geto cooked the fish they wrapped the rice around or not. That would be another step that makes it take longer. Alluka's just glad to be welcome here and welcomed by Geto. It makes the rest of it all right. It'll be all right.

She lets him go and shakes fish flakes onto seaweed wrapped onigiri. It's like a conversation for your mouth. And stomach. She sticks one into her mouth and has to chew for a while before she can talk. She uses that time to finish more riceballs.

"Oh," Alluka says once she can talk. "I'm sorry you were having a hard time back home. It'll be better here, I promise. Folkmore is a really good place to be. And I can give you a hug any time you need one."
