So, this is my Inspirational Challenge #32. I won't give much more than this pic, so work with it.
What comes into your mind when you look at this pic and read the text? What do you think?
How did they meet?
What kind of job Buffy has?
What about Scoobies? Will they find her some day?
TIP: This is a BTVS / Lara Croft crossover [/color][/center]

Hmmm... Lots of posibilities to figure this out. So, she went and got involved in a place of supernatural in England, where they would probably not think to look for her. Then she can travel all over the world.
How have they met: -Maybe they met during the summer between S2 and S3. -Maybe they met before she became the slayer, and didn't find out about the job until after her calling, well, Called. And then she figured it out. Lara could have been an old friend or something. -Maybe They met soon after she was Called, and one owes the other a favor, like Lara maybe giving Buffy a job and shares the house or something. -Maybe they met supernaturally; say, Buffy's angelic presence in heaven was needed when Lara was involved with the 'triangle' business. -Maybe.....
Okay, those are just some ideas. Hmmm..... Lots of goodies and more.

I could imagine this being right after season 7 with Buffy taking off and not forgiving the scooby gang for betraying her. ¿Laura could be Buffy's cousin through her dad's side? She goes to visit her wild cousin and fits right in with her and her friends Bryce and ¿Bryan? you could go many different ways with this one... ;D

Cousin Buffy to cousin Lara sounds cool. Maybe Lara was with Buffy and Celia, and she has believed in the supernatural since Buffy and Lara saw the Der Kindestood on top of Celia? Or maybe Lara was Celia's sister instead of cousin.
Lot's of maybes. Lot's of potential. Bring ont eh fic someone, please.

Season 7? Fits right.
Buffy and Lara cousins? Sounds cool. But few questions: Why haven't they seen for long time? Why Buffy goes to her now? If they have been good friends when they were kids, what happened that make them drift apart? The Celia thing? Or something else?
But this could be of course something else too. Maybe Buffy saves Lara from some ugly, nasty demon. Maybe Lara has bought or found some old piece of antique that every demon in the area wants. Lara has no idea why they try to kill her, and Buffy rescues her. Then they become friends.

Sounds cool. Maybe Buffy and Lara did keep in contact; they just let the letters stop flowing for a while when the big stuff came up. Or maybe Joyce banned them from seeing one another for some reason. It could have been the Celia thing that pushed them apart, like they were blaming htemselves already for not pushing 'whatever it was' off of her, and they didn't want the other to get hurt.
Or maybe Lara's mom (the possible relation) moved back to England with her father then, and that was why they didn't keep in closeclose touch.

In relativity... I have never seen Lara Croft, so, I may be speculating here, but what if Celia was a sibling to Lara and Lara blamed Buffy for Celia's death (considering she WAS in the room with her, after all). It could explain why Buffy and Lara never spoke afterwards.
In non-relative senses, however, I think a demonic relic would work fantastic. I think that Lara should be targeted by a demon-version of a bounty hunter and Buffy just happens to kill it before Lara knows what really happens, and it sends them spiralling off into...

Yet again there are so many possibilities, but I kinda like that 'Buffy saves Lara' idea. That way we can get in the business right away, without explaining why their friendship died and why they didn't contact each other if they are relatives.

Sibling thing will work fine, but the Buffy-saves-Lara will do just as well, and we dont have the emoitonal backdrop to work with for that.
What would she spiral off into though? What if it was during r right before the whole first movie, and Buffy got involved with that? If you put her in the 2nd movie, then she could be working from inside the badguy's stuff, getting them info and then getting the hell out, or somethign.
I think it would be cooler if the author who takes this up creates a small plot for thier own mystery though, and what if it had to do with erh very own mystical background-Buffy's, not the slayer's? She would be part angelic right?
