along the middle path they tread

How cuddly are each of the characters?

Rules: for each of your OCs, rate how cuddlable they are on a scale of 1-10. Descriptions/elaborations are totally rad, but you do you, fam. Tag some people you like after! 

Aidan: 7/10 She likes giving her friends & family hugs, even if it’s just the arm-around-shoulder-squeeze variety, and cuddling up against people she’s close to/has consent to do so with. She does like having her space, too; however, if she’s less cuddly than usual, it means something’s up of the depressive variety and/or something’s really bothering her. 

Augy: 1/10 NO TOUCHY UNLESS YOU WANNA GET HIT/SCRATCHED/BIT. That said, this boy is touch-starved af and if he has reason to like & trust you, he’ll reach out to you physically on his own. And if he does, be sure to have a clear signal that you’re done being hugged otherwise he will not let go. 

Clifford: 6/10 He has so much love and cuddles to give yet he is cautious. Best bet is to wait for him to initiate physical contact, or just ask for a hug first. If you’re one of his trusted family/friends, all the hugs and comfort touches for you. 

Ivan: 3/10 Not much for hugs and cuddles but recognizes they’re a necessity in certain circumstances.

Joshua: 10/10 He is a big beefy teddy bear full of sunshine and puppies down to cuddle whenever, wherever. 

Mal: 7/10 If you’re friends, expect a lot of side-hugs, shoulder bumps, hair-ruffling, that sort of thing. If you’re looking for romantic cuddles, however, you’re better off spooning a cactus. Unless, of course, you’re up front with him about it; he can’t read your mind, after all. 

Oli: 6/10 Much like Clifford, ze’s cautious, yet most of zir caution is directed toward male-presenting people. Wait for zir to initiate until ze’s made it clear you’re in zir good books. 

Sayora: 2/10 Do Not Cuddle, Touch, or Look At unless you are established as Pack(-worthy).
