Is there any specific way the brothers hug / cuddle IK at all? Does IK have a favorite character when it comes to getting hugs?
hmmmm i think each brothers has their own range of hugs that do or don't get used depending on the situation...
on a sliding scale of most-to-least frequent casual huggers, they go: asmo ≈ mammon > satan ≈ beel > belphie ≈ lucifer > levi
asmo's philosophy is "a hug to say hello and a hug to say goodbye", and he's more active in his hug frequency than mammon - as in, asmo generally has the thought "time for a hug :)" in his mind, whereas mammon often does it without thinking
asmo always commits to full scoop-up-in-arms hugs (occasionally with a twirl, often with a kiss on the head) while mammon more frequently does one armed, pull-into-his-side hugs (frequently followed by a hair tousle, or an affectionate chuck under the chin)
satan does similar side-hugs to mammon, though he often does an asmo-like full hug to say goodbye. there's always something deliberate about it - very steady. beel is more pick-up-and-hold than actively-hug, mostly because he's a little afraid of squeezing too hard, but it's very secure and comfortingly solid
belphie's hugs are often less hugs and more "i'm gonna lean my whole (not really) weight on you to be annoying lol". he does a version of a side hug where he leans over and puts his head on top of ik's for a moment, usually used as a greeting when she's sitting down next to him
lucifer always commits to a full hug, and he specifically always holds out his arms and waits for ik to complete it (the others tend to pull her in); one hand goes on her back and one on her head, and he usually holds her there for at least a few seconds. he hugs less frequently, but he tends to make them count
levi's hugs tend to either be offered when he thinks she needs one, or done out of excitement - the former kind are a little awkward at first, like he doesn't know quite what to do with his arms, but he ends up sorta folding around her. the latter kind is a little like getting swept up into a tornado (usually, where the others might hug, he tends to just bump ik gently in the arm or something instead)
now.... in terms of favourites....... i think ik would be very diplomatic if asked and say she doesn't have one. and that is true, at least of the hugs described above. however, i do think she has a separate favourite hug and that is specifically the one mammon does when he's really giddy
this one is a swept-off-the-floor, spun-around-at-least-twice hug, just shy of being too tight, and he's usually laughing during it (because he just does that when he's especially gleeful) such that she feels the vibration comes through his chest. the sort of hug that could probably cheer her up from anything :)
