i think while i still debate to formally hc samira as being on the ace spectrum, i do hc that she has low libido and struggles to get out of her head during sex. it could be that she works insane hours a week and when she's not doing that, she's focused on her career and her life goals. i don't think that means at all that she's disinterested in sex as i've also said the same thing about romantic relationships, but my iteration of samira doesn't see sex as stress relief / a way to distract herself. and she views it as another way of being involved with people in a way that she largely avoids.
in the event that she does have sex or is intimate with someone [ and situations vary, it depends on how well she knows them, how much she wants them physically and even emotionally, how invested she is in the act, etc ], i see her struggling to get out of her own head. pleasure doesn't immediately solve that for her. i see it helping, but it takes a minute for her to be able to let go and be present.
i think that it strongly boils down to compatibility as well. which i mean, is not so far-fetched. but i mean. walk with me here, but i read a fic where the person she's intimate with has her describe how to do a medical procedure so she has something to focus on and control while he's helping her unwind. and i think that's the exact kind of person she needs. it takes a certain understanding of the kind of person she is and being willing to cater to that specifically to help get her where she wants to be.
this is not to say samira dislikes sex. but i don't think she's often enjoyed it. and i think that if she were to choose to, there's some level of emotional investment or strong desire to have sex with that person in particular.
anyways, just my thoughts on that. while i don't write explicit material or often engage in discussion over it, i do think that it has its importance in character and ship development. and for me, it's how i choose to interpret her thoughts on the matter.
