The first time Joel, Tommy, and Ellie leave Jackson’s gates together, both Tommy and Ellie immediately try to take Joel’s right side and then just look at each other like the other one’s spouted a second head
I present the follow-up of when they're inside of Jackson, both Ellie and Tommy automatically try to stay on Joel's left side so they can talk to him without problem, and it evolves into them constantly stumbling over each other's feet and bumping into each other.
They both refuse to budge and are like "we can make this work but I want his left and I won't leave first" and Joel simply watches them almost eat shit several times like "you know you can just like space yourselves out right one in front one in the back" and they both simultaneously go NO I was here first.
(Ellie & Tommy like each other a lot so it's not any kind of serious competition/jealousy but by god they have something to prove now)
