That's a first for Oichi, and she says the word as if she doesn't quite understand what it means. No one, not ever, has suggested that she could be happy. Or that she had any right to be. Lord Happy perhaps came the closest when he said she didn't have to fight anymore, but that isn't the same thing. Happy...
She wouldn't even know where to begin looking. She looks away, unable to deal with such genuine concern. Because she knows. The shadows whisper it to her. Soon she will fail. Soon she will be cast aside. It is only ever a matter of time.
"I am.... undeserving of such kindness, Lady Matsu."
Tachikoma's words may have been ignored completely. Except for the mention of 'ice-cream.'
"I have never heard of.... iced cream...."
But perhaps there's a more important point in those words.
"Can I truly leave this castle? Undefended? Brother will be cross with me...."
Again. He's always cross with her. And with everyone else too, honestly.
