[Jonathan listens, feeling absolutely sorrowful for this man. He truly believed it when he said that Dandy is an attractive, kind man. And seeing him admit this, looking almost uncharacteristically melancholy, made his heart ache for the poor man.

There is a split second that worries about what he's about to do. After all, he just told Dandy he could leave, and he doesn't want to make him feel obligated to stay. But... he needs to show Dandy that he cares, that Dandy deserves love, platonic or otherwise.

Jonathan leans forward and tightly wraps around Dandy in a tight hug.]

I'm sorry, Dandy, you deserve love, and... while I might not be able to provide the love you want, I will be here for you.
