The fierce independence that Oswald has forged for himself over his life out of necessity was put into question when he truly got to meet and know Edward Nygma. He'd thought he wouldn't be tempted in that way again. Or maybe just that he'd never be in a positionto consider it again.
But as Ed's arms coil around him like that, speaks words of assurance that Oswald has probably only heard a handful of times in his entire life, it pulls a breathy, awed little half-chuckle, half-sob from his throat as his own arms move with urgency to encircle Ed's middle, squeezing tight and barely shy of uncomfortable most likely, his face pressing firmly against the crook of Ed's beck, drinking in the feel and the scent of him. Words all feel a bit trite right now, but they will surely be back in abundance soon enough.
