Info

Heart to heart is a way to connect more physically and interestingly, past what a phone can do. It can be a fun way for partners in long-distance relationships to connect or a fun toy for children to play with each other or a parent.Two people each have their own heart that can be connected when interacting with each other. A hug from both people will make the hearts beat and glow, showing the connection between them. If you feel like screaming your feelings out instead, the heart will become afraid. It will then start shaking and glowing in fear. You can also shake it until the heart “stops”.  For the interactions to be possible, both hearts have to be touched at the same time. If one person wishes for a connection, they can touch their heart and it will make the other faintly glow to show the need for a connection.
