*While the tone of the situation was beginning to set in between the two of them, Jess was struggling to decipher where the ambient tension was taking them- Initially, she couldn't be bothered to give a modicum of a fuck about this vertically challenged spitfire. Now, she was beginning to develop a sliver of respect towards the pugnacious pouncer, something that should be considered worth its weight in gold.*
"Hm...yer oh so adorable when yer blushin like that~" *The crimson crusher tossed yet another, slightly mortifying compliment Alice's way. Her intentions remained esoteric for the time being, deliberately trying to keep her opponent guessing in an effort to weaponize her confusion against her. However, it would appear as though Alice was far too distracted to notice the goliath returning to her massive feet, sauntering towards her with a malicious grin stretching ear to ear.*
"Yah know, seems like yer just a big ol' ball of rage." *The Titanic Texan chuckled aloud, approaching Alice's backside with a cheshire cat smirk upon her countenance, as she attempted to match the grin on her face by stretching her arms out wide.* "And yah know what always cures my blues? A good, ol fashion hug!"
*Without another moment to squander, Jess ensnared Alice inside of a spine-shattering snuggle! However, the tightness of it was more akin to an uncomfortable sweater, two sizes too small to be considered an appropriate fit. Although, given how much Jess wanted to express her newfound attraction towards the diminutive brawler, she decided that smooching the nape of Alice's neck would suffice for now.*
"Muuah! Muuaah! Ya'll are just sweeter'n peach pie!" *She exclaimed, relishing this perfect moment between the two of them.*
