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

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
Based on a writing prompt I saw:
https://x.com/KaylaAncrum/status/1748613400010121444
"Man who falls in love with a sphynx and solves her riddles daily, in spite of the threat to his life.
The boon he requests every night is to sleep by her side in the warm sand and wake up safe. As he grows old, then forgetful, she reconfigures her riddles to accept any answer."I took this in my own direction.

Summary
Tante Mattie once told Remy that he wouldn’t recognize destiny if it fell out of the sky and crashed right on top of him…
…which is why when—after a loud crack and startled yelp—someone fell down from the tree directly above his head, the normally well-attuned thief didn’t even see it coming.

Summary
Inej had never thought herself to be the jealous type.
Saints, the very idea of it was antithetical to the way she was raised in her caravan, the way she’d lived her whole life — always taught to share things, to think of others and not herself.
For a good long while, she’d believed it, too. Generosity was a virtue, and one she figured she ought to cling to amidst the others she’d be forced to give up during her life in the Barrel.
But now, looking across the room to where the evening’s mark blushes and giggles and places her hand oh-so-delicately on Kaz’s sleeve, Inej immediately knows —
She doesn’t want to share him with anyone else. Not even a little bit.
OR: Inej watches Kaz flirt with a mark for a job and decides she's having none of it. Roaring Twenties AU.

Summary
Inej Ghafa is a principal dancer of the Kerch National Ballet, haunted by a past she'd rather forget. Kaz Brekker is a mob boss who holds the city in the palm of his hand.
Perhaps if all were right with the world, two such people would never meet. Or perhaps fate will always give those who need each other a push in the right direction.
It begins, as so many things in Ketterdam do, with a murder.

Summary
ROLLINS STONE MAGAZINE
In this issue
Six of Crows: From break-ins to breakout stars, the band talks overnight success, music and madness, and everything in between.
Eddie Spaghetti once said, "Rock and roll keeps you in a constant state of juvenile delinquency."That would explain a lot, as the dynamic within the band can only be described as a decidedly more aggressive version of The Breakfast Club. Namely: a lot of banter—most of which involves a lot of stinging and acerbic one-liners that are just waiting to be immortalized by the internet, enough hijinks to send any authority figure running, and a whole lot of waffles.
(or, the band au no one asked for but which I wrote anyway)

Summary
Albus Dumbledore rose to his feet, smiling at them in that way of his, like he knew something you didn't and he was proud of you for it. "Friends," he began.
The door thudded open and the Marauders burst in, late and pink-cheeked with cold. The headmaster smiled at them, too, and Sirius gave a cheery little salute back.
Severus sunk lower in his chair, staring witheringly over his butterbeer. "You told Potter about it, too?"
"He might as well put all that energy to good use," said Lily. "And, to be accurate, I told Remus."
"But Potter, really?" said Severus.
"He and Black cooked up a jinx that gives you a boil every time you say a slur to a Muggleborn," said Lily. "It was either invite them to Alice's war club or bake them cookies, and I know where my skills lie."
Severus sniffed. "Don't come crying to me if he tugs your pigtails."
"Come crying to me if he pulls yours, and I'll deck him," said Lily.
(Slight AU in which Severus apologizes, tries harder, and stays friends with Lily)

“There’s not going to be a you and me,” Leia says. “I’m going to have this baby with C-3PO.”
