Summary
Summary: Kore wakes up. She’s a cat now. A big, fluffy cat with no idea how it happened or why. She thought things were crazy with just that, but then she meets a familiar face under a different name and things get even crazier.
OR!
In which a modern-girl falls into the Marvel Universe and is shifted into a cat. Bumps into Tony Stark and decided to follow him home because he's a magnet for trouble and she had a bleeding heart and a low-key-hero-worship-hard-on for Iron Man.
Some mythological/magical bullshit happens later, but Marvel was already full of that before she got there, totally not her fault.

Summary
Jujutsu society is stunned when it’s discovered that there are books written that tell the tale of sorcerers; they contain details so minuscule and specific that it cannot be counted as a coincidence. It causes enough unrest within the ranks that every available force is put into who is behind ‘Prometheus’ and why they know details that no one else does.
Meanwhile, you are a university student, young, sleep-deprived, and most importantly, a person who keeps to herself. In the wake of the release of your newest bestselling novel, you’re no stranger to the increased attempts to find out your true identity.
Although this time, it feels different. By the time the semester starts, you’re noticing increasingly strange encounters that could be dismissed as pure coincidences - if it weren’t for the rising fear that you’re being watched.

Summary
This world has no need for her, offers no destined paths and fated battles, for it is not hers to save. [
Was never meant to be saved.] But Harry — Harry, whose father was brave enough to face Voldemort head on, whose mother was brilliant enough to outsmart him, Harry, who has Lannister blood running through her veins and magic purring under her skin — Harry will reshape it all the same.Elyanna Baratheon is born with the breathtaking, terrifying might that is a life free of a prophecy’s shackles. Luckily, she's got twisted family drama, an ill-timed reawakening of the Magic of Old and the powder keg that calls itself the political climate of Westeros to keep her occupied.
