Kagura took the offered bear and hugged him tightly, still embarrassed by her own outbursts, but even so, she felt a little bit better.

"It's ok," she assured him, "this is... fine. I... I'm sorry." She wasn't sure if the apology was because she couldn't hug him herself, or because of the things before, but she felt like it needed to be said.

"Does this mean we're friends again?" she glanced up hopefully, face half-buried in the bear's fluff.
