[ Her narrative is that this is for his benefit. She's resigned to being bad at intimacy, while he might still be salvageable. He deserves to think he is, at least. If she were being honest with herself, her own casual sex routine has left her slightly starved for touches of significance. She's tactile by nature, and once upon a time, enjoyed many of the soiled gestures she no longer can. Not easily. Hugging isn't quite up there with hand-holding and foreplay, depending on the partner, and Steve's, let's say, defined inflexibility sets him apart from her sister's thin frame and her abuser's reedy body. Not that Trish calls Kilgrave himself to mind, it's just that the majority of her recent attempts at physical comfort revolved around or reacted to his various torments.

A measured sigh streams from her nose. Jess isn't counting up the seconds in an annoyed tally and that's a good enough reason to let go. A hug she likes is one that goes somewhere or comes from something; this is just a favor for a friend. Her hands fall from him, then worm into her jean pockets as she steps back. Welp, that was a bad idea. Now she has to qualify him as a friend. ]
