How long had it been since anyone hugged her? Five years, at least. The last hug was probably from her mother a few days before the murder, which she is quite sure she rejected with crossed arms and an eye roll. This hug, on the other hand, she accepts with enthusiasm. She leans into the embrace, arm around his waist as she squeezes in close before pulling away, her smile big and beaming.
"You found Norton, too? He's reliable," she says, "Probably the first one I set my sights on recruiting here."
Whatever John and Norton have going on isn't a conflict of interest with her gang business, she decides, mostly because as far as she's concerned John is already part of her crew. If anything, it just means that he shares her good taste in finding people to trust.
