His Soul is Marching On to Another World; or, the John Brown Isekai by CabbagePreacher
Fandoms: John Brown (abolitionist), John Brown Isekai
21 Dec 2025

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
“If Mould calls you a bloodbag again, I’ll rip her fucking throat out with my teeth.”
Edith blinks. Stares.
Charles ever present smile is gone, replaced by a steady calm, blank except for the tic of her jaw.
“Just so we're clear,” Charles plucks Edith’s bag from her slack fingers.
———
or, Charles is vampire royalty. Edith is meant to die to protect her. Charles has a few things to say about that.

Summary
It’s peaceful in the blind, quiet, still. It smells like mold and forgotten beers and a whiff of cigarettes, but the wind that blows through the cracks in the boards is crisp and fresh. There’s a word for it, Daryl knows, for the smell before rain. His earth science teacher had said it one day. Daryl’d written it down and then the teacher had pretended to keel over with shock. A Dixon, taking notes? Just for that Daryl doesn’t want to remember the word, doesn’t want to like it. But he remembers anyway. Petrichor.
He’s thinking of this, half drowsy on top of Merle’s stained sleeping bag, when they come.
