Infinite Matryoshka Dolls

Question: What does it feel like to end up as one of the players in the horror survival novel you wrote yourself?

Answer: Is this some kind of story within a story?

*

Cheng Shiyu is transported into the horror survival novel she wrote and becomes one of the people fighting to survive.

Her only guide is a foul-mouthed plush cat brimming with malice. She can escape only by finding the novel and figuring out its central theme.

Plush cat: "Who wrote this thing? The plot makes no damn sense. What kind of theme could it have?"

Cheng Shiyu: "..."

Back when she was too lazy to outline her chapters, the water she let into her brain turned into the tears she's shedding now.

Theme: Finding love while trapped in a desperate situation.
