[Jason recognizes the gesture Hunter is doing and appreciates it. It's a sign of someone wanting to give comfort but not used to doing it and wanting to give respectful distance. It makes sense to Jason, given what he knows about Hunter. He's also coming from his own personal experience. It's been years since he received or done any affectionate physical gestures.

Jason gently places his own hand over Hunter's.]

No matter what that monster thinks and even though you look like someone else, you're your own person with your own memories and experiences. No one can take those away from you.
