[ he says softly, and then he lets her. he thinks it might be awkward, but it isn't. her hug is warm and enveloping, and Jason truly can't remember the last time anyone hugged him. he pulls his hands from his pockets and wraps his arms around her as well, hugging her back lightly. he doesn't want to overdo it. but it also feels so nice that he doesn't really want to let go. ]
[Dawn is great at hugs, even Donna who usually doesn't like them would have to admit it, and when Jason wraps his arms around her and gives a little bit back she smiles and gives him a gentle squeeze.]
[ she's really great at hugs, and Jason realizes that he really likes it. it makes him feel liked and wanted. not in any kind of romantic way, but in a way that feels like someone actually wants him around. wants him to be here.
it makes him blush a little when she gives him a gentle squeeze. ]
[ Rachel. of course. she probably said something snarky and shitty about him and their pretend flirting, so here Hank is, ready to see what that little snitch was talking about.
Jason does let his arms drop of out of the hug, though. this is why he can't have nice things. ]
Damn bro, you sound real insecure right now. Can't even imagine how you're gonna feel knowing I ate the last of Dawn's delicious cookies too.
[Dawn removes her arms from around Jason but she doesn't move away from him, instead she turns and looks at Hank with a steady unimpressed gaze. Hank's jaw clenches a little but his eyes move from Jason to Dawn and for once he decides to not push things.]
Yeah, yeah. That true Dawn? There's none left?
[He asks instead of threatening Jason and she rewards him with a smile, motioning to the plate.]
Six? Damn. Well, we all know whose sugar he got then.
[he might be a little shit, but when Dawn nudges him with his hip, he has the decency not to nudge her back right in front of Hank. Hank came in hot but he's being chill now, and Jasons's not here to make this seem like anything it's not.]
They were real good, Dawn. Thanks. I'm gonna get back to training now.

Ah-ha! Now whose making who blush!
[She teases but doesn't let go, instead she pulls him back in for a tighter hug.]

[he's about to wriggle away out of embarrassment, but then she pulls him in for another, tighter hug and he sure isn't gonna pull away.]
I fucking told you, I'm just not used to hugs, alright?
no subject
[She says, swaying a little which makes him do the same since she's still got him in her arms.]
And don't worry, I'll change that.
no subject
[he wishes she wouldn't make such a big deal out of it, but it's not enough to get him to stop, and he sways with her, shaking his head.]
You're gonna give Rachel even more ideas.
no subject
Maybe. Worth it though if it helps get you used to hugging.

[A voice says behind them and Dawn heaves a sigh and turns to see Hank scowling at them.]
Did you come in here just to be rude and eavesdrop, Hank?
[She asks and his frown grows.]
Rachel said there were cookies but it looks like someone else is getting some sugar.

You got four and Gar took six.

You're welcome, glad you enjoyed them.

[Gar will be less than thrilled. maybe even pout about it. and then okay, maybe cause he really is a little shit he adds:]
Thanks for the other thing too. I really needed it.
[he winks, and then he laughs and quickly heads for the elevators.]
