He gives her a long, thoughtful look, because there's a lot he could say about his more unfortunate recent activities, and some of it's widely known, and some of it's only known by Thor, and he's more or less on probation as far as the Avengers are concerned. But here he might find the sympathy he has both desired and been reluctant to accept.
Before he says anything too foolish, he's being hugged, though, and he makes a grunting sound of surprise, flailing briefly. The better part of him decides 'fuck it' within half a second though, and he hugs back. No one's here to see him spoil his ice-prince persona, so why not?
He pets her upper back, a bit awkwardly, and then he gives a fond little laugh and settles into it. "What is this power you're using against me? Sweets and hugs, and already I am conquered. Don't tell Thor."
