[Normally, Clementine would take great and tremendous issue to that swear word there. But ohgod volume. She shrinks back until she nearly falls off her stool.

Please don't be mad. Ohgod is he going to pull out a gun?]

[No gun, but his expression sort of makes it seem like he's going to start spitting fire any second.]

You can tell him that I'm not so desperate that I'm going to sleep with a cow!!

[She huddles at the edge of the stool, prepared to drop down and break into a run if necessary.]

That's not what I said..! It's not sleeping.. Just a good and proper fucking. You know. Like from Jack's world?

[.....]

Did he even explain to you what that word means?

Yes.

It's like a hug. But better.

[Oh for god's sake.]

It's nothing like a hug. It means having sex.

[Something he is absolutely not doing with a goddamn cow.]

[ . . . ]

Oh.

[Yeah she's been a fairly sheltered kid. She doesn't have a frame of reference for the whole 'sex' thing.]

[...Does she not understand that, either? Ugh, seriously? Well, it's not his responsibility to give some random kid sex education.]

Geez, just ask an adult. Someone who isn't that blond idiot.

Anyway, the answer is no.

Oh. Okay.

[She lifts up the ox by his front hooves anyway though.]

But. Maybe you should give Ben a hug anyway? It might make you feel better.

[Ugh, just when he thought he'd be rid of her.]

I seriously doubt that.

How can you know if you don't try it?

I'll know, alright? And I have no desire to smell like someone else's weirdly-coloured livestock.

[Hey. HEY.]

Ben just had a bath today! He doesn't smell!

[Fine then he smells like bathed cow 8( Though there is mercifully not the scent of farm stinking up the bar right now, he'll give her that.]

...Whatever. I'm still not hugging him.

Just try it! Are you scared he'll hurt you?

I'm not scared!!

Then you can prove it by giving Ben a hug.

Like hell. I don't have to prove anything to anyone. Now hurry up and go home! Little kids shouldn't be in a bar.

Jack and Buffy say I can come here whenever I want. [And they're the bosses. right? that's sure how they make the chain of command sound.]

[Wow, rude, he has way more seniority than Jack 8(]

How responsible of them. Why am I not surprised?

[Uuuuugh sometimes he really hates his co-workers.]

[Well then maybe someone should tell that to the little girl.]

Is it true, then? That you only want hugs from grownup ladies? I thought Jack was just saying things again.

[Because Jack's almost never says things that turn out to be all the way true. Clementine wishes to document the event.]

[Okay, Jack is getting an earful the next time they meet. He is getting like three earfuls, bare minimum.]

I don't want hugs from adult women, either. I don't want hugs from anyone. Sometimes people just don't like being touched, alright?

... I understand that.

I have an aunt who pinches my face really hard when she sees me. I wish she wouldn't touch me either.

[TOTALLY THE SAME THING right?]

[His response is a vague sort of "hnn" noise, glancing away. It's... well, close enough, from a kid's point of view. A discomfort around strangers or otherwise.]

Something like that, sure.

I'm sorry Jack wants people to touch you when you don't like it. That's not nice of him.
