Laura Garcia

Wendy Garcia

## Personality

Constantly observant of her surroundings, Laura always seems to know what's happening, sometimes before it's happened. She keeps worst case scenario front and center. Laura is quick to jump into the defense of her friend's and can often de-escalate situations before they become physical. While charismatic at most times, Laura can tend to drive people away with her overall straightforward attitude, but that happens to be what her friends like about her.

## Relationships

### Wendy Garcia

Laura's little sister. She adds more energy to Laura's repetitive life.

### Shawn Richardson

Laura's boyfriend. The two haven't been together long, but they're relatively close. Laura enjoys his "big brother" attitude towards Wendy.

### Allison Chaim

Laura's best friend. Having met before Allison came out, Laura loves how much more expressive Allison has become over the years.

### Felix Powell

Laura's friend. The two didn't meet too long ago, but she has allot of fun with him around.

## Style

Laura never fully got the chance to develop her own style. Wearing clothes shes collected over the years, whether it be her dads old clothes, or hand me downs from her friends, she keeps all of it. Occasionally if she has the money, she'll buy something new, which is where her core outfit comes from. She prefers to wear darker colors, straying away from her sisters style. Laura's open to wearing shorts and dresses, but just finds a simple pair of pants and shorts more convenient for her hectic life.
