If you had teleported directly to Eli's, Breen would still have been able to swoop down on BME at will, once you did reveal yourself (or rather, once G-man revealed you. The coincidence of the portal taking you to Breen's office of all places is smaller than we have decimals for).

Lamarr doesn't get debeaked until Kliener adopts her, so it would possible to control people in her before life.

Can headcrabs detach at will though? Or do they only detach when the main body sustains enough damage.

They do detach, when you kill a zombie the right way, they leave the body and come after you.

It might be how she survived all this time. I think it would be interesting to play as Lamarr, experience what see has and see exactly how Dr. Kliener decided to keep her instead of killing her.

Yeah, but can they do it at will? So far, it looks like they stay on the body, steadily mutating it and/or draining its resources.

When already have the HL1: Headcrab Mod... but I think one using the HL2 version with snips from C17 and ect would be nice, as well as a "You are playing as Lamar" thing rather than some random headcrab.

The last update was from 2005...
But nonetheless, the idea still has potential
