Talisman & Trouble

She was just trying to finish the last episode. She didn't expect to end up in it. Leakhana Doung has her life perfectly under control — a stable dental hygienist job, her mom's leftover noodles, and exactly one episode left of the gloriously terrible jiangshi drama she's been hate-watching for three months. Then the screen goes white, and she wakes up somewhere that smells like wood smoke and horse. With roosters. And absolutely no WiFi. Somehow, Leakhana has landed inside the world of Eternal Night of the Hopping Dead — a show she knows inside and out, right down to who lives, who dies, and exactly how badly things can go. Survival means playing her cards carefully. It also means staying far, far away from Lin Zhiwei, the brooding Taoist demon hunter with the tragic past and the unfairly devastating jawline. She's a fan. She knows his type. Getting attached would be the stupidest thing she could possibly do. She's probably going to do it anyway.
