    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

    An anthology series about politics and war in an industrial fantasy world. This isn't based on any existing work, and chapters can be read in any order.

    Inspired by Worth the Candle. The name is inspired by "Erisology", from everythingstudies, but otherwise unrelated. Updates every week, hopefully.

    Truly thought-provoking world building.

    Summary

    Zed Sadler and Raymond Sunshine prepare an operation in the Cybercity. But is their code as secure as they think?

    Incredibly nerdy. The punchline probably won't make any sense to you unless you understand how compiler internals work.

    This work doesn't have ordinary deep cuts into the worlds of computers and programming, oh no. It has *advanced* deep cuts. As someone who got the joke, I love it to bits.

    Summary

    We are, each of us, tied together by bonds that defy explanation or reason; that flare with emotion beyond our control and draw us to the people who make us better versions of ourselves. In the two years following the Emperor's defeat, Luz Noceda's bonds to those people she loves have been tested by the distance of her forced return to the mundane world. But when the opportunity at last arises to return to the other side of the looking glass, to renew her bonds and rekindle them, there's not a force in this world or the next that could hold her back.

    And so Luz Noceda has returned to the Boiling Isles. To complete her education, to become the witch she was always meant to be, and maybe, just maybe, to get to have her happy ending after all.

    The time skip and aging up of the cast is used effectively. Papa Noceda shows up and he's deployed perfectly.

    Summary

    'Getting off the plane to a whole other continent she had only been in for a short period of her life was absolutely terrifying, the looks people gave her, the commotion, the amount of people here in general. Did people visit Connecticut this much? She had even forgotten this state existed until she was boarding the damn plane.

    Lucia took a deep breath to settle her rising nerves. Everything was going to be fine, for the most part.'

    Or:

    Tragedy strikes and Lucia is forced to move with her mom and Luz after thirteen years of not seeing them. Things are complicated, letting yourself be vulnerable is hard and scary. But maybe it'll work out in the end.

    Lucia is a cynical little ol' softie in this, and I love it.
