Summary
Will didn’t know how this was happening.
He didn’t know why.
But it was.
Even if he couldn’t trust his eyes, not always anyway, he trusted what he felt, tactile sensation, and everything he felt said that this was happening. His body didn’t have the aches and pains and scars he knew. There was no knot of scar tissue causing issues with his shoulder from being stabbed. No smile across his stomach from a linoleum knife or bullet wound in his non-stabbed shoulder.
He was his relatively untouched teenager self, brain too much for most to handle and awkward social abilities that had landed him a full-ride to Tulane off of his high IQ and ability to pass a test – so long as it wasn’t a psych exam, though now that he knew what he knew he’d be willing to bet that was changed.
In fact…as plans and plots started to come together, he was counting on it.
It would be a long game.
Almost twenty years.
A different Will would be sorry for all those who would die between then and now, let alone those that would come after, but as he sat down and began the first of many lists that would shape his future for the next decade or more, he didn’t feel any guilt at all.

Summary
Lady Alyssa of House Marbrand knew she was destined for greatness. Naturally, she's well-equipped in all main character requirements--conventionally attractive? Check. Gentle, sick mother? Check. POS father? Check. Morally grey, cool but poorly researched hobbies, feminine rage, a touch of Mary Sue? Check, check, check, and check.
The board was set, the pieces in place, and Lady Alyssa was ready to join the game, through an arranged marriage with the realm's richest, most powerful man, Tywin Lannister... oh wait, no, to his son, Tyrion Lannister.
Well, Tywin isn't off limits either.
