    Summary

    The land of Gemeinplatz is a land filled with fantastical creatures, adventurers looking to slay them, and heroes looking to distinguish themselves from the adventurers. The most common of these heroes are those who come from Earth, who enjoy a most leisurely time with their cheat skills. It’s a perfect world, the utopia of those who wish to become overpowered and get their own power fantasy, where even the most everyman of the everyman can pull themselves by their bootstraps and become a hero.

    To satisfy the needs of heroes who can’t find function like a normal human being (which most of them can’t), the lucrative Gemeinplatz slave trade crushes the dreams and ruins the lives of hundreds every day. These slaves endlessly labor, in the harems of so-called heroes, at the mansions of the landowning “heroes”, and as rare materials for various dubious magical spells.

    In a world that looks down at them as demi-human, where the ruling class has no incentive to end this profitable trade, in which their oppressors are overpowered as all hell, what hope is there for the slaves?

    What hope is there, is named John Brown. This time, he’ll finish what he started.

    Summary

    Apcolyspe averted, Sam finds himself on an almost empty ship.

    He's not estranged from the people he loves. Just doesn't know what to say to them.

    He's not aimless. There's just not much to do.

    Higgs is starring in his dreams more often than not and bringing all Sam's past trauma with him. That's kinda a problem.

    But mostly, he's doing just fine.

    Summary

    As the daughter of a powerful cult leader who works for the Operator, you are accustomed to living in a cage of ancient decay and the dark shadow of the forest. You are used to the cloying scent of rot, the silent judgment of cultists, and the heavy weight of the covenant. What you aren't used to is being babysat–least of all by a wannabe bodyguard who secretly hates you.

    Toby is a Proxy–a twitching, volatile, and arrogant killer who views your family’s ministry as a boring administrative chore and you as a spoiled brat. In the public eye, he is the perfectly polite, bowing guardian. Behind closed doors, he is an arrogant, disrespectful parasite; a nightmare who delights in pushing your buttons and challenging your authority.

    But when, one night, the two of you get into a violent argument–and your hands take pleasure in hurting him–he seems to enjoy it himself more than he should. It is therefore hardly surprising that he attempts to provoke such a situation again–solely to coax you out of your shell.

    Yet, you hate him. That’s why, for the life of you, you cannot fathom why–despite your contempt–you let him do things to you that feel better than they have any right to…
