« I'm sad that Hanar can't wear sweaters. »
But they can :D I found this commission illustration that I drew in 2021! I didn’t show it before, but I think this painting has a great concept, so enjoy! (above is a quote from Grunt, the Citadel dlc).

I got a stuffed hanar for myself for Christmas (his name is blorbo), and these are the things I have wondered since I got him
Text reads: if a hanar sat down, would it be this? Or this?

Confession: I wish we could have a hanar LI in the next ME. Not even for sexy tentacle stuff, I just find them really cute for some reason.

I always wonder while playing ME. Do Hanar hug you with two tentacles or all tentacles like some facehugger
I've put too much time into researching this and this is what I found so far.
Firstly, I assumed that mass effect wouldn't have addressed the hanar hugging habits at all so I straight up jumped to their real life counterpart, the jellyfish.
And let me tell you how surprised I was to find that no one has raised the question of "can you hug a jellyfish?"
Like we have had heated discussions about how a horse would wear pants, are you telling me that the 21st century humans never imagined hugging the one immortal animal without a brain or bones? Shame on all of us.
But, however, I was delighted to find that people did in fact raise the question of "can you kiss a jellyfish?"
Tumblr media
And you can! You might die but I say the price is worth it.
Jellyfish don't seem that friendly to humans either so I question the hanar willingness to hug us.
Tumblr media
After finding out that the first page results of two different search engines were completely off topic, I went to the other source of information where people were chronically online enough to ask these questions seriously, tiktok.
I did end up with fruitful results. I found this video and this other one of jellyfish kinda of hugging each other underwater? And as you can see they do use all of their tentacles. I also found a bunch of cute other videos about jellyfish and got distracted for an hour, 10/10 experience.
Now the scales were leaning in the favour of hanar using all of their tentacles to hug you. Finding the barrel jellyfish to be the closest to hanar, here is an image with a human for scale to how the hug might be.
Tumblr media
But that raised the question of whether they would fall or float? Which lead to the need to figure out how they even moved because their tentacles looked too fragile to act as legs.
I knew tiktok was too unreliable and search engines too professional so I migrated to the one place where source material is treated like a holy grail, reddit.
Scouring the deserted mass effect subreddit while half lucid on pain killers, I did find some information on how the hanar conducted their day to day surface odyssies.
Based on this one hanar "blasto" from the citidal dlc, hanar do in fact walk on their tentacles as legs. But it's less of walking and more of scuttering around like a tiny crab in a tiny shell. The wiki adds more explanation, they use a mass field effect on their tentacles to carry them since they are in fact fragile and unable to lift up their big bodies.
Tumblr media
After reading the wiki that I realised I should've gone to from the start, I found out the hanar have a skull, which means they have a brain to protect inside the said skull. So they are in fact not as squishy as earth jellyfish :(
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Then I finished the wiki and still found no information on their hugging habit. At which point I was close to giving up.
Going back to reddit since I had nothing else to do, I suddenly found an oasis amidst the dry desert of hanar informations.
This picture of a hanar hugging an asari! From the "Mass Effect: Blasto: Eternity is Forever"
Tumblr media
I was flabbergasted! The exact thing I was looking for, just straight up offered to me on a silver platter! The fates smiled my way.
So the definitive answer is that they seem to hug you with 4 of their 6 tentacles, leaving the remaining 2 in the far back to carry their weight and balance on.
There is however an argument I found that mentiond how blasto is actually considered a bad representation of hanar in the mass effect universe. Blasto seems to deliberately exaggerate and preform un-hanar like behaviour to appeal to the bipedal viewers. One example is carrying guns that hanars are know to be unable to actually effectively use for the lack of fingers.
Which raises doubts about the authenticity of the Blasto hug. Is it how hanar really hug or is this one attempting to appeal to the human-like viewers? Do hanars hug with all of their tentacles underwater and only do a 4 tentacle hug on dry lands? Can you kiss a hanar? Where can I get a copy of that asari hanar tentacle porn game?
I'm afraid to admit that I know that I know nothing.
Here is another cute video of jellyfish.

asari: athame‘s fields, silver stream.
quarians: tides of light, path of light.
turians: silver road, seam of spirits.
salarians: way of souls, wheel of silver.
krogan: road of warriors, firestream.
elcor: silver meadow.
drell: tides of silver., silver ocean.
batarians: silver flames, river of light.
hanar: reflected path, way of the enkindlers.
