Summary
In hindsight, Apollo doesn't know why he agreed to this. Such is his life now, he supposes. He's being led by Darcy Graves into a graveyard, and he's pointedly not scared. Not even one bit. He's used to visiting cemeteries— or at least, one specific cemetery in particular. The main difference being the one he frequented back home was private, gated, and full of lavish mausoleums fit to house Ixian royalty. Plus, he always visited in the daytime. This one is full of random people, and Darcy says that the dead here can talk. Not only that, but it's the later hours of the night and they're shrouded in darkness. Apollo doesn't think the dead will talk to him, not really, but Darcy looked so excited at the prospect of him seeing a place she loves so much that he bit his tongue and agreed to come. He'd never seen her excited before, so curiosity truly killed the cat.
Or: Apollo agrees to visit a graveyard with his lab partner in an attempt to commune with the dead. He ends up in over his head with one of his best kept secrets exposed, but maybe it's not so bad if Darcy keeps holding his hand.

Summary
It begins with a drawing — quick, unguarded, nothing Apollo expects to matter. Darcy keeps it anyway, folds it into her pocket, and suddenly they're tangled in something neither of them meant to start.
They keep ending up in the same places: a cemetery, a courtyard, a classroom where they're paired against their will. Each collision feels like coincidence until coincidence becomes a pattern and the pattern becomes harder to walk away from.
Darcy wants to disappear. Apollo wants to control everything. The drawing sits between them like a secret.Bookmarked by SimonSaysCreate

His Soul is Marching On to Another World; or, the John Brown Isekai by CabbagePreacher

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.
