"Yeah. They got me too." Jane fell into that hug in greedy desperation, choking on a strangled laugh as she clawed at the collar of Bones' shirt, grasping and tugging it down as her body shuddered and quaked through each repressed sob until she was only trembling with silent tears tracing her cheeks and soaking into Bones skin.

She always was a tactile person, touching and teasing. Good for a pat on the back or a good solid short-lived hug. But since being here, she's grown more needy. Clinging to her people and her tightly held sanity as people she cared for kept coming and leaving and coming back a little more broken and she just-

She needed Bones. She had needed that cynicism and sarcasm and metaphorical grasp of reality to keep Jane grounded and in the present and not breaking into a thousand pieces that never quite fit back together the same way after.

She had needed her best friend.

And now she couldn't even articulate how much it meant to her that this universe finally stopped dicking around with her and gave her the grounding force she had been needing.
