@lori Croft invited me to post my fanfiction here, so here are the links with some brief descriptions about them. I'll work from the newest to the oldest but I am continuing to update all three. When I am writing I like to drop little references to the games from time to time, I hope this increases the enjoyment of the stories as it reminds the reader of when they played the games and found such relic/encountered such situation. I am also a bit of a bio blender, for example the in The Plain of Jars, the chapter I am writing at the moment has Lara with a scar from Yamatai even though it is set after AoD.
The Handmaiden's Tale
"Set after the events of Yamatai, Lara is thrown into a world where it seems everyone knows her name. Trying to escape the past Lara finds that not all she believes in is true and that her life is not always what she chooses, but what is thrust upon her."
This is the story I am writing at the moment, I wanted to continue the personal development of Lara that we see in the game when placed back into normal civilization.

Rebirth of a Saga
"A short one shot that is set before Lara crashes in the Endurance during the new Tomb Raider 2013/Reborn. It introduces subtle elements that are found in the two official trailers and hopefully sets the scene nicely for March 5th!"
I wrote three quite short stories when I couldn't wait for the new game to come out! For the first two I took hints from the trailers and expanded on them. The third one is a story I am pretty proud of; on the Eidos forum there was a thread that speculated how the new game would end. Quite a few people really liked my suggestion so I expanded it into full prose. I wasn't too far off, just poor Roth survived a little longer

The Plain of Jars
"Set a few months after the events of Angel of Darkness, Lara cannot help becoming intrigued with ancient artifacts again no matter how hard she fights it. Traveling to South East Asia she tries to uncover the secret of the harimau ring and the Plain of Jars in Laos. An adventure that takes her from bustling cities to infamous tombs."
My first, and so far, longest story. It's a good old Core Lara who travels to Singapore and Laos to investigate the location of a mystical ring. I love the use of urban areas in AoD so I placed a large chunk of the story in Singapore to explore that. Plus I love Singapore and it was nice for me to revisit the country through writing. Yes Kurtis is in there, but no it is not one of those stories. I don't think I would be very good at writing those! I really enjoy writing this one with the 1st, 5th and 6th chapters being my favorite.

The rest you are not having because they are handwritten and were from when I was 11, no-one needs to see them! 
I'm also hoping to do an AC TR crossover story one day to link with a cosplay design that I have

How long have you been working on them?
