SHE ALREADY WAS IN THE NOVEL HAHAHAHAHA not that it was shown on screen but it kept bringing up techniques she'd learnt in therapy on how to manage her anxiety
I obviously didn't expect great attention to continuity between them but they kept insisting both are in continuity and then shot themselves in the foot
if I try hard enough I can fanwank it as Lara not wanting to admit to Uncle Douchebag that she has been getting help, but I'd expect that to have more "I have been, you bastard" internal monologue
okay I'm mostly done gloating over the continuity snarl, so now onto other good things in this issue: Lara having a job?! and parkour training afterhours haha. I am Mister Sauce. CUPCAKE FIGHTING.
I'm actually willing to accept the did you see his body? no handwave because at least this is someone I know and care about! (ie. Kaz now appears to be an Alex replacement.)
