[Scott can tell that Yu's tense underneath his hug.
It's hard, because he knows that Yu is usually the type to return hugs rather quickly. He's really been going through it, huh? But maybe it's not surprising at all that Yu is like this, even if he didn't lose both of the people closest to him, because Scott knows what he was like in their shared dream. A sort of distant and kind of awkward teen, like he didn't want to get close to anyone. A dream is only a dream, of course, but maybe there was some truth to all that.
Like before he made a bunch of friends, he was a loner. Scott can honestly understand that. He kept to himself for most of his life until he arrived at Xavier's Institute and finally found a place that he could fit in.
As long as Yu doesn't struggle, he keeps his arms wrapped around the other in a tight embrace. He really isn't a big hugger, but well, maybe the both of them needs this and he's willing to take the first step this time. It's not the first time that he reached out to others that looked like they needed it and then make a big deal that he's just doing this for himself.
But then Yu hugs him back, chin against his shoulder, and any doubt's gone.]
...Crappy day, isn't it? [He mumbles quietly, but still holding onto Yu.]
