Does it work to say "someone melts into something in another person's arms"?

Is this okay?

No. You could get by with saying someone melts in another's arms, but you can't melt into something else.

She hugs me and I melt into her arms; I become a lion cub.

In that case, I have no idea why you'd feel like a lion cub. It doesn't mean anything to me.

@alpacinou Try: "She hugs me and I melt into her arms."

I'm pretty sure she didn't want to hug a lion cub. As for why you would want to become one, I have no idea.

Because she loves lion cubs a lot and she wishes I was one. 😅
