By the end of December, "Lara Remix" had been picked up by a small gaming montage channel. Then a motivational video. Then a TikTok edit with a million views. People weren't just listening—they were seeing Lara. A fan-made animation appeared: a hooded girl with glowing green eyes, running through a digital forest, holding a broken antenna.
