Her smile fades a bit at the word 'warn', mostly since she really doesn't know what to expect as a warning considering the kind of topic they're talking about.. But Madoka seems to be listening attentively to him even as he gets up. Maybe the whole adopting deal would have been super shocking if that had been the first thing he said, but considering what he already told her so far.. it doesn't feel weird. It's still a little surprising, making Madoka stare at him with big eyes, but at least she doesn't look freaked out or anything.

Mostly because.. well, after letting out a slight breath she didn't realise she was holding, the girl shakes her head and replies.

"I.. I'm not concerned though.. I don't think I'd mind."

She pauses, which is when Madoka seems to realise the way that might have sounded, and she blushes a little and shakes her head again.

"I-I mean, of course I love mama and papa..! It's not that I wouldn't mind it because I don't like them! But.. um.." She glances away from him for a moment. "I'm sorry that I didn't tell you all of this before, but.." There just never had been a right time for it. And it didn't feel necessary. And as long as it wasn't necessary, Madoka was fine just keeping this information to herself, since it's not really something she likes talking about. But with Ignis being so honest to her, the least she can do is try to give him the same in return.

"Even when I go home.. I probably won't return to my parents. I actually already kind of said goodbye to them before I ended up here.."

She speaks more slowly about this, like it really isn't easy for her to talk about. Mostly since she doesn't want to get overwhelmed and cry at a moment like this of all times, when Ignis has tried so hard to bear part of his feelings to her.

"Back home there's-- there's something I have to do. And I'm the only one who can do it, I think.. But when I do it, I'm probably not going to be able to go back to the normal life I was having with mama and papa and my brother ever again anyway.."
