*Sam and Lara talking about straight people*

Sam: The only straight I am is a straight-up b*tch.

Lara: … what? *amused*

(Moderate NSFW)

Lara: *Joining Sam in the library* Sam! Guess who shaved.

Sam: … *processing*

Sam: NOOOO!! LARAAAAA!!!! WHAT DID YOU DO??

Lara: 😶

Sam: HOW COULD YOU DO THIS?? WHERE??

Lara: Just my legs, Sam. It started being annoying.

Sam: … so… my happy place is still as it was?

Lara: … yes.

Lara has never been happier than when Sam is in her life:

She’s had happy moments. She’s smiled and chuckled when with Jonah, or Zip, or Cam.

She's enjoyed time with friends and her found family.

But truly happy?

Only with Sam.

She really noticed it the moment she was in an event to which she didn't particularly want to go but had promised Cam or Jonah she would. Lara finds herself actually enjoying it, exchanging messages from time to time with Sam, feeling safe and grounded through her.

She realised she didn't have that in the years apart. She'd endure the events she didn't want to be in. But knowing Sam was back in her life she finally allowed herself to fully be in the moment.

Lara is either sleep-deprived, or actually takes care of getting enough rest. There is no in between.

The older she got the more stubborn she became about not taking naps.

But Sam won't have any of that.

If she sees Lara is drained out, or staying up too late because she's working or researching, she'll find a way to get her to stop.

Sam likes naps and sleeping, so she'll ask Lara to lie down with her while she (Sam) naps for some minutes, during which Lara will eventually fall asleep too.

Canonically she does or did take naps in between missions or on the way from one place to another; both panels are set during the day:

Lara has her clothes all over the place (somewhat canon).

Most of them are for expeditions anyway and things like that, practical clothes that she doesn’t care if they get slightly dirty.

Meanwhile Sam actually cares about her clothes and is surprisingly tidy, folding them and having them organised between clean, half-clean, and dirty.

Sam changes more than once a day; Lara can wear the same thing two/three days in a row changing only once to sleep or exercise.

me:i lo-

Lara is clingy (when she’s not in “mission mode”), and loves to pepper Sam’s face with kisses and overall hold her.

If anyone calls her out she’ll deny it.

Sam’s guilty pleasure on films (or at least what Lara considers should be considered a “guilty pleasure” even if Sam is unapologetic about it) are the Fast and Furious series.

Lara never even having considered touching those films with a five foot pole but ending up watching them because Sam wanted to.

I know Lara is secretly very needy, especially in bed👀

SOMEONE GIVE HER A KISS RIGHT NOW !!!!!

Bear with me.

Lara wasn't/isn't one to use emojis when texting but after Sam she started using them.

But

She uses them only with her.

(And occasionally with Jonah and Zip; eventually with Cam too)
