Paco had been giving a lot of hugs lately. In the past, they hadn't been too shy about the hugs at the times hugs were very appropriate, but over the last year or so - years, really - that Jaime had been superheroing, they pretty much had tossed any reservations they had about regular hugging to the wind.
Jaime had needed it.
He'd needed it right now without realizing it. Paco had already figured out what was about to happen before he did, and sure enough, his eyes started prickling. He sucked in deep breath after breath. It didn't stop the stress crying from starting but it at least meant he wasn't sobbing or anything.
While growing up, Jaime had never had any issues where he devolved to stress crying but it had become a thing in the year since he'd returned. Now that he was piling even more onto himself it had only gotten more frequent as time had gone on. It didn't help that so much of what he saw was extra ugly - like that human trafficking thing he and Spidey had broken up.
