You wonder how don’t starve characters feel to hug?
Here’s a headcanon list about it that i made a long while ago
Wilson
At first it's awkward and hesitant, though the more you do it the more tender and nice his hugs feel, not too tight yet not loose, just the right amount of hug.
Willow
Her hugs feel slightly tight, but still very cosy. You might get some ashes and soot stains on yourself, and you might get the scent of charcoal on you, but it's a very nice hug.
Wolfgang
His hugs are Tight and Mighty, of course not spine crushing, but they can range from "i'm trying to hug you tight while also not snapping you in half" to "i'm excited and nearly forgot that my hugs are strong and you're having trouble breathing-"
Wendy
Her hugs aren't very tight and pretty slow, but you can tell that she likes hugs.
WX-78
They don't engage in hugging that much, if you manage to get them into a hug then it'd just be them stiffly holding you not sure what to do. May smell of old pennies
Wickerbottom
Grandma Hugs, Grandma Hugs, Grandma Hugs, especially if you're asking for one or are giving her one, her hugs can be very caring and tender. You might get that "grandma clothes" smell after but it's more comforting than inconvenient in any way.
Woodie
His hugs are strong, and super cuddly, but also slightly itchy coming from his beard and probably pine needle covered clothes. Might smell of pine too.
Wes
Listen this skinny clown has very nice hugs, they're like wilson except he's much, much more open to give people hugs if needed and they're so filled with care, and expressive if that makes sense. Smells slightly of rubber.
Maxwell
Stiff, awkward, but lowkey quickly gives in and embraces the hugs while he can, you might smell either smoke or roses-
Wigfrid
Her hugs are passionate, tight, though can be pretty tender if the situation calls for it, though she’s usually a "sling my arm on your shoulder" kinda gal.
Webber
Little dude gives the best and happiest hugs, decently tight and filled with care.
Warly
Another really good contender in the "best hugs" category, they can be slow and caring to tight and passionate, dude is such a nice hugger, you might get a slight scent of either grandma clothes or something he cooked that day.
Wormwood
Would probably feel odd considering how bumpy he is, and the gem on his chest, and the fact he has plant textures, but his hugs are very nicely done, and you can just feel that he really enjoys them from how nicely tight they are, you might even smell of flowers after.
Winona
Pretty tight and caring, though like wigfrid she's more of a shoulder pat or a hair ruffle woman, and kinda only gives hugs to those she's real familiar with.
Wortox
He probably wont be able to fully hold/touch you back, but he's very nice to hug as he's fluffy and you can tell he likes being embraced, though you may have some red fur shedded onto you.
Wurt
Slimy, kinda wet, though she likes hugs and will do so very tightly, you'd probably smell of fish for a while.
Walter
Very nice, decently tight hugs, though they probably don't last long because he's on the go a lot, you might get some dog fur on you.
Wanda
Very rarely does she have the time for a long hug, often it’s just an arm sling or a half hug, but when she does give a decently long hug it’s almost as good as Wickerbottom’s.
