Maybe it's a little surprising. Or. Okay. Maybe. It's a lot surprising. Given Savitar-or-Sam taking her hand and squeezing it is the first time since she's arrived he's even touched her (touched anyone that she's seen), and her heart is already doing that 'the Grinches heart grew three sizes that day' from already being not small. All delight and moved emotion and surprise and promise to herself she'll keep this promise, help him, and it's only starting to bubble toward words -- so Kara is nothing like prepared for suddenly having arms thrown around her.
There's a surprised "Oh!" even as Kara raises her free arm to find his shoulder and hug him back, and maybe that first reaction doubles or triples even further within the slim frame of her chest. There's a light, kind of awkward laugh, and somewhere in between them her can got dropped for this, but this is more important anyway. Beginnings always are.
