[ A very slight shiver runs through Sypha's body, but there's no retaliation when Alucard touches her tail. It is comforting, knowing with absolute certainty that there is someone in this world still who is family to her, even though everyone she'd grown up with is long gone.
It makes her sniffle. Though she's studiously been avoiding thinking about things that would make her cry, the combined talk of Speakers and the nebulous future and the lack of purpose she feels has her on the verge of tears. Alucard's soft touch is permission as much as anything else, and she leans in against him and begins to weep. Her tail closes in around him, pulling them closer together so he knows she isn't upset at him, but that she takes solace from him. ]
