So for the RA/Princess Bride crossover, here's what I'm thinking so far.

(Full disclosure: I haven't read much of TRR because I lost patience with it entirely, so those characters will not be showing up.)

Horace will be Westley, with the Sunrise Warrior moniker instead of Dread Pirate Roberts.

Cassandra will be Buttercup.

Gilan will be Inigo Montoya. Do I remember who canonically slew David? No. But it fits.

Deparnieux will be Count Tyrone Rugen; he's pretty much already making elaborate torture machines in his castle basement anyway.

Miracle Max will of course be Malcolm.

Svengal can be Fezzik, possibly. For Vizzini I don't know, but I'm thinking Tennyson. And Salt Peter can be the bishop.

I can't decide if Prince Humperdinck should be Morgarath or Arisaka; I'm leaning toward the former.

Alternatively, you can just have Will and Alyss as Westley and Buttercup and have Keren as Humperdinck and Jory Ruhl as Rugen or something. OR you can switch up the story and have Inigo (Will) avenging his wife (Alyss) instead of his father, and then he can kill Jory, and Horace can still be Westley and Cass can be Buttercup.

idk why everyone agrees that what will treaty did to john buttle was so amazing and petty of him (giving him to the skandians, making sure he’s doing the yard/ice break thingy)??? like??? did we read the same books? it is SO out of character for will to have done that. yeah buttle was a horrible, awful person who deserves horrible, awful things but i just can’t see will giving him into the slavery that nearly killed him??? the skandia/slavery arc was dehumanizing and again, nearly killed will— it definitely traumatized him 100% (even though flanagan is a shitty author who obviously did not address will’s trauma at all) !!! it took will MONTHS to stop begging evanlyn for warmweed, MONTHS for him to even recognize evanlyn and snap out of the mindless zombie haze, MONTHS for him to build up his strength again, etc etc. and that’s not even including how long it took him to fully recover from that experience (again, flanagan did not write about this, but we know). he definitely still has nightmares and triggers from slavery. AND! he was alone for a while before horace or alyss showed up to help him w the mission. all this to say that the will treaty we know— fair, just, kind, awkward, humorous— would NOT have sent someone to slavery willingly, even if that person is john buttle who’s a terrible terrible terrible person. THERE i said it i’ve spoken my mind!

Alyss: Wow. So you’re like a serial killer.

John Buttle: I’m not a serial killer.

Alyss: But you’ve got a pattern. You go after specific victims. You collect mementos.

John Buttle: Okay, technically, I’m a serial killer. Now that we’ve established that, give me one good reason why I shouldn’t tear open your head right here.
