I have a few IC consequences that would make Ellie accept being forced to live apart from Joel, if it comes to that.
1) If somehow being from the same world attracted Malicant to people, Ellie would live separate from Joel, or would accept only being near-ish to him.
2) Martial law would have her disobeying sometimes to crash on his floor, but if there were a legitimate defensive reason for not allowing more than the prescribed number of occupants per room, she'd accept it.
These two coming from Evandau, whom Ellie trusts and likes, would be enough for her to accept the rooming changes.
