Elizabeth would've normally flinched or grimaced at the gesture of her hair being pet by Tabbi, but instead only found comfort from it, and let herself lean against the woman before her practically completely as she cried almost silently, letting out what she'd held in since a young child. After at least ten minutes she finally was able to stop, though a light tremble still shook through her small frame, and she didn't move away from Tabbi, finding comfort that she'd never had before being there, where she was. Enough so, that she didn't want to leave that comfort. At least not right now.<br/><br/>Sniffling quietly, she rubbed at her eyes to wipe away the leftover tears. "Thank you.." She whispered in a just barely audible tone, leaving her face hidden somewhat with her head turned to the side, resting against Tabbi's shoulder as she was rubbing at her eyes, much in the fashion of a young child.
