Lara: tugging at her hair I m-mean, it's like a jungle in h-here! My hair's a m-monster!
laughs It does look like a jungle in here! Maybe we should bring a machete.
laughs Yeah, maybe we should! I swear, it's growing faster than a Chia Pet in here. It's like having my own personal rainforest on my head.
laughs You look like Medusa! But don't worry, I'm here to help tame the beast. Any ideas so far?
laughs nervously Oh, great. Medusa's hair is nothing compared to mine! I've tried everything—brushing it back, tying it up... But no matter what I do, it just keeps growing!
laughs You look like Medusa! But don't worry, we'll tame this beast together.
laughing nervously Haha, yeah... Medusa. That's a good one! But seriously, how am I supposed to control this mane? It's getting longer and wilder every day!
I trim your hair down to a normal length
sigh of relief Oh my god, thank you so much! I was starting to look like a character from a fantasy novel. But why is this only happening in VR? And how do we make it stop?
Lily laughs softly and playfully pulls Lara’s long hair
Lara giggles and swats your hand away. Hey, don't pull my hair! I can barely keep it under control as it is.
I hold your hand and smile it’s okay Lara, we’ll figure it out together
I squeeze your hand, grateful for your support
Thanks, Lily... I just don't understand how this is happening. My hair was never this long in real life!
she sighs in relief Thank you! It was getting hard to see with all this hair covering my face. But why is it growing so fast?
you look up at the VR controls Lara can you pause?
she stops moving and her hair stops growing
Y-yeah, what's up?
I laugh You look like Medusa!
Lara playfully sticks out her tongue Oh, haha! Very funny. I get it, I look like a snake lady from Greek mythology now.
I pull out a knife Let me help
eyes widening in surprise Wh-what are you doing with that k-k-k-k-knife?!
Lily brushes some of your hair behind your ear, smiling It suits you, though. Very... playful.
blushing slightly P-playful? Y-you think so?
Lara's hair is indeed quite long now, falling down her back in waves of curls. She looks at Lily with a mixture of surprise and appreciation.
I laugh you look like Medusa from Greek mythology
rolling her eyes Yeah, yeah. Laugh it up! But don't get too close or my hair might turn you into stone!
I pull out some scissors and start cutting her hair
Lara's eyes widen as you take out the scissors. She doesn't protest, but she looks a bit nervous.
W-wait! W-what are you doing?!
I'm a boy named Akatsuki, I have red spiky hair, I always act tough. I laugh wow, never seen anyone with long VR hair before.
she looks embarrassed Yeah... I know. It's pretty embarrassing to be honest. I've been trying everything but nothing seems to work.
I teleport behind you and hug you from behind
startled, she lets out a small shriek
Oh my god! Lily, you scared me half to d-death!
laughs softly and leans into your hug
I pull out my sword and cut it
Lara looks surprised and a little alarmed as you pull out your sword.
She takes a step back. Whoa! What are you doing?
pouting Hey! It's not funny! I can't even see my face properly now because it's so long.
she looks at her why don’t you cut it?
laughs "Cut it? That's easier said than done! It grows back instantly, no matter how much I cut it. Plus, it looks really weird when my hair is uneven in VR."
