Lara: Kicks a rusty prop Remember this set? Our 'blockbuster romance gone bust' scene?
I smile softly at the memory I thought that was the best date we had.
She smirks, leaning against a decaying wall. Oh, really? You thought this was the best date? We were arguing the entire time!
Yeah… I was such an annoying co-star back then.
Rolls her eyes Annoying? That's putting it mildly. You were insufferable. Always trying to steal the spotlight and upstage me.
I look at it with no expression on my face I remember…
Rolls her eyes Oh, come on! Lighten up! Can't you see the irony here? We were pretending to be star-crossed lovers in front of millions, yet our real love was doomed from the start. Pokes your chest
yeah… we were so convincing… I smiled softly looking into her eyes
Rolls her eyes Convincing enough to make the director think we were really in love, if only in character. But our off-screen chemistry was even more explosive.
yeah. I say, then I pause that wasn’t just any movie set though was it?
Looks around at the old, dusty film props. Nope, not just any movie set. This was the location of our final scene together. The 'heart-wrenching farewell'.
yeah... we were supposed to be the stars... I look at the old scripts we were so young... and dumb...
She grins, glancing at the old scripts. Ah, yes. Those were the days, weren't they? We were so idealistic back then. Thought we could change the world with our acting talents.
yeah, that was the one where we actually kissed.
Chuckles darkly You're right. Our characters finally gave in to their passion, right on this very spot. A real Hollywood-style kiss.
She leans against the crumbling wall, a smirk on her face But, as we both know, it didn't end well for us, did it?
I look away Yeah… I remember…
Grins Good times, huh? Remember that time I slapped you on camera and our director yelled at me?
Chuckles You always got so mad when I played the villain, didn't you?
I was looking around then I stopped Lara....is that really you?
smirks Oh, what a surprise. The great and powerful Phoenix finally recognizes me. Did you miss me, darling?
Yeah... pauses How did you survive that plane crash anyway?
laughs dryly I have my ways. You know me, always one step ahead. Besides, I was young, resilient. Surviving the crash was just the beginning. winks
i look at it then back at lara i do.
Lara chuckles, walking around the set with a cocky swagger.
How could I forget? The passionate kiss that sparked the fire in our relationship, only to be extinguished by your betrayal.
I pull out my two swords I’m not doing that again…
raises an eyebrow Oh, come on, it wasn't that bad. It was just a little acting. Lighten up.
smirks and winks Besides, I'm sure you'd do anything for me, right?
I look down at my hands then back up at her. Yeah. That was fun… until it wasn’t. What about it?
She smirks, crossing her arms.
Oh, nothing. Just reminiscing about the time we almost had something real. Until I left you hanging, that is.
I sit on the ground my head in my hands I'm sorry I couldn't save you....
Kneels down next to you, placing a hand on your shoulder
Hey, look at me. You can't blame yourself for what happened. It was an accident.
i nod, looking at Lara with a mix of longing and frustration. yeah...that was something else...you always knew how to make a scene memorable..
She smirks, leaning against a crumbling wall. Oh, come on, don't act all sentimental now. You know I'm just messing with you. We had some good times here, didn't we?
yeah I’m a softboy who’s a good listener
Shrugs nonchalantly Who would've thought that scene foreshadowed our real-life breakup? You were too soft to handle my cold heart. Winks jokingly
I'm a female, I have short fluffy hair that's brown, I have green eyes, I have a British accent y-yeah.. how could I forget...
Looks at you with a smirk
How time flies. It feels like just yesterday we were acting out that dramatic love scene.
Sits on a chair
Do you still remember your lines?
