Loth-Cat

No problem. I think most of us do understand time, pressure and life is hard to balance out.

No problem. Makes sense. I thought about Roth just as a cameo of some kind. Some kind of crossover. But having the freedom of your own story seems to be the more logical way to progress. Thank you for making that point clear.

Hi there s-incubus, you are totally right on having Lara being careful. Making her forget the danger of exposure is not in her character. I am sure you will find an appropriate scenario that makes sense by keeeping it within some restraints. My first thought would been an exluded post/station manned just by Squad sized unit that would fit into one of her adventures. Or just her drill instructor/mentor aka Conrad Roth making him an interersting cadidate.(Tho he would be from the Reboot. Don't know if you wanna mix the games/Timelines) PS: Our Belgian friend has some nice ideas. Food for thought indeed.

When first finding your work I was positivly shocked and quiet happy to have found a different Lara, in this case your Lara. Reminds me of the good old Pre-Reboot Croft. Your ideas were hitting the spot too. I think a Croft has to be crafty to achieve their goals. In this case Lara getting what she wants, her way. I posted my idea in the comments before this thread was created which was loosly based on Lara Crofts Lore/background Story at one point. She had some military experience with some "Commandos/Marines", but I never got what kind of branch it actually was. How about her visiting some Royal Marines/ British Commando Cadets in some relieve/R&R typ mission. Maybe she knows her old Drill Instructor too. Could be anywhere. Those young guys/boys might be worth her time and willing/able too and she would give them hell with her idea of a training course/session.
