"Well good morning Mumbo!" Zed bounded over to Mumbo, beaming. "Isn't it a beautiful day?"

"Why yes, I suppose it is!" Mumbo smiled sleepily.

Zed paused for a moment, then hopped closer. "Would you like a hug?"

Mumbo nearly said no, but changed his mind, nodding slowly. Zed scooped him up in a big hug, despite being nearly a head shorter than Mumbo.

"I hope you have a good day today," He murmured into Mumbo's suit jacket.

"...Thank you Zedaph."

"You're very important Mumbo. Everyone cares about your well-being. You deserve to take better care of yourself."

Mumbo felt the tears welling up in his eyes when two puzzle pieces clicked. "Words of affirmation..."

"Hmm?" Zed pulled back, keeping Mumbo's hand in his own.

"Well, without going into details, I was up late last night helping a friend. We talked about love languages, and I've been thinking about it all morning. It makes me realize I need to love my friends a little smarter."

"Well, what is it? Your love language?"

"Well certainly words of affirmation and quality time. But, the more I think about it, I also really appreciate physical touch."

"Huh! Well then, I think I'm definitely physical touch. Would you like to hang out today? It's too beautiful to stay cooped up in the base!"

"That sounds... perfect." Mumbo smiled. He squeezed Zed's hand, and the two strolled through town center, enjoying each other's company.

I (and many of you) really enjoy these love language chapters, so I might do a few more! They're really fun, but I don't know which hermits to focus on- give me the hermits you'd wanna see next!

Love you, my little stars!
