Ignis taking her hand like that makes Madoka's gaze move back to him. Not that she looks startled or anything of the sort, it just pulls her attention away from the anxious thoughts about everything going on back home and back to the present.
There's the briefest moment where she just stares at him. But then the girl slowly nods.
".. I'd like that."
With how things were going back home and with what happened to her friends, it had felt like Madoka had more and more to carry all by herself back there. And while she knows everyone here can't help her with that burden from back home, they do at least make it feel like she isn't alone here. Like there's people who will help her out. People she can talk to when she's worried, even when that's still a little hard.
"I already feel like I miss them a little less when you're there." And when the others are there too, of course, but he's the one she's talking to right now. And if he wants to be like a parent to her in this place, then she'll gladly let him. Madoka could use it more than she'd let on to, really.
