Vanellope has never received a hug from anyone, out of fear that she may hurt them accidentally or on purpose. Everyone was afraid of her; other kids, candy citizens, even adults! So how does she react when she gives her first hug? And receives one back in return!
Two different POV's. Each from Ralph and Vanellope, when they received their first hugs from each other.
Vanellope tells Ralph about her past a bit more after she feels the need to ask Ralph a rather personal question... Does falling from the building into the mud ever hurt him? (WARNING: This story is rated K for Thematic Elements, and contains discussions of physical bullying. Nothing too serious, but If you are triggered by such subjects please avoid this fic.)
Vanellope needs something from Ralph, something that always brings her comfort when she is reminded of her upsetting past... a hug from the biggest and most comforting hands in the whole arcade. ((Wreck-It Ralph belongs to Disney Animation. I OWN NOTHING!))
