Line 1: {{trope}} {{quote\|'''Yusuke:''' Why don't you quit hugging me, you weirdo?!~~<br />~~ '''Kuwabara:''' You're the one hugging; [[Implausible Deniability\|I was trying to squeeze you to death]]!\|''[[~~Yu Yu Hakusho (Manga)\|~~Yu Yu Hakusho]]''}} A gag where two characters spontaneously hug in a moment of shared joy or ~~affection--and~~affection—and then one or both of them quickly, awkwardly pull away. Maybe they want to maintain their [[The Stoic\|stoic]], [[Men Don't Cry\|manly]], or [[Jerk ~~With~~with a Heart of Gold\|jerkish]] facades. Maybe they've remembered that they're [[Just Friends]], or [[Vitriolic Best Buds\|not even friends]]. In addition to humor, the device can be used for a [[Ship Tease]], or to show that two characters [[Aw, Look -- They Really Do Love Each Other\|really do like each other]]. Can be a [[Not So Stoic]] moment. Line 11: == Anime and Manga == * As seen in the page quote, in episode nine of ''[[~~Yu Yu Hakusho (Manga)\|~~Yu Yu Hakusho]]'', Yusuke and Kuwabara do this after finding out that Yusuke passed Genkai's third test. == Film - Animated == * Happens a couple of times between Kuzco and Pacha in ''[[~~The Emperor's New Groove (Disney)\|~~The Emperor's New Groove]]''. * After Jim saves the ship from being destroyed near the end of [[Treasure Planet]], Amelia and Doppler spontaneously hug. The movie uses it for an [[Aw, Look -- They Really Do Love Each Other]] moment. Line 26: == Live Action TV == * Regularly between Chandler and Joey on ''[[Friends]]'' * In the episode "Sports Medicine", the distressed wife of the [[Patient of the Week]] bursts into tears and latches onto [[House (TV series)\|House]]. Given the circumstances [[Jerk ~~With~~with a Heart of Gold\|he can't really throw her off]], and we are treated to a lovely/hilarious shot of House in the middle of a crowded corridor, being ''clung to'' and looking extremely embarrassed about the whole thing. Eventually he manages to give her a little pat on the back. * In the ''[[Dexter]]'' episode "Dex, Lies & Videotape", Deb impulsively hugs Lundy after he clears up a misunderstanding. He hugs her back. Then a crackling police radio reminds them that not only are they (at that point) platonic co-workers, they're in the middle of a crime scene. == Literature == * In the 5th ''[[~~Artemis Fowl (Literature)\|~~Artemis Fowl]]'' book, Butler, {{spoiler\|after not seeing him for three years due to time travel adventures}}, spontaneously hugs Artemis and just as quickly pulls away, embarrassed at his lack of professionalism. A one-sided example, as Artemis doesn't seem to find it awkward. == Newspaper Comics == * ''[[Zits]]'' Lampshaded in one strip: just as Jeremy and Hector are about to hug, they look at each other and then sit down. Hector mentions hugging between males always looks easier on TV, to which Jeremy responds "[[Let Us Never Speak of This Again]]". In another strip Jeremy and Walt express their mutual affection with an "air-hug" (ie making hugging motions about three feet from one another). That either of them went that far apparently had something to do with it being Walt's birthday. == Western Animation == * ''[[Danny Phantom]]''. In "One of a Kind", Danny and Tucker fall asleep and end up [[Sleep Cute\|snuggled together]]. They wake up that way, scream, and yank their arms back. With Danny and Sam in ''"Fanning the Flames"''. Unlike the first example, this was used for [[Ship Tease]]. * Clay and Coach Stopframe in ''[[~~Moral Orel (Animation)\|~~Moral Orel]]''. * In an episode of ''[[~~Ka Blam~~KaBlam!]]'' Henry and June both hug each other, though then Henry found it awkward and pulled away, mentioning, "Let's not get gross here." (meaning kissing). June on the other hand, LOVED the hugging. * [[Regular Show\|Mordecai and Rigby]] barely avoid this at the beginning of "Temp Check" ("Ah, sick!") Later {{spoiler\|becomes a [[Chekhov's Gun]] to [[Bluff the Imposter\|separate Doug from Rigby]]}}.
