Aery, terribly shocked by the hug, tenses, then puts her arms slowly around Charlie's neck, feeling very strange emotions bubbling up inside her, fighting. And then is literally shocked as one of her circuit implants comes into contact with one of his. She yelps and jerks back, laughing and crying in equal measure. Then puts her arms around him again, careful of the circuit boards. "I'm sorry. I'm just being a stupid emotional girl right now." she chokes out, and then laughs, zaps herself again, tears up at the pain of that, laughs again at herself. "Okay, really, this emotion thing sucks. It's so unscientifical."
