    Summary

    “The Emperor’s New Groove.”

    The barista, the young man who had asked about my favorite movie, blinked at my answer. So, I repeated it.

    “My favorite film is the Emperor’s New Groove. So can I get a latte now?”

    “Ah, sure!” He fumbled a bit while grabbing a medium sized cup. “Never heard of it. What’s it about?”

    “An emperor that gets turned into a llama.” I shrugged, nonchalant despite how odd I knew I sounded. “Though I’m a sucker for any movie that does the ‘how I got here’ trope. Full freeze frame record scratch shit like in Sunset Boulevard.”

    “What’s that one about…?”

    “Guy dies, narrates how he got dead. World within a world stuff happens.”

    The barista was fully weirded out now, and I had to resist laughing. Not that I could blame him. There were several things about this situation that were bizarre. First, the two movies that I had listed didn’t exist in this world. Second, I hadn’t existed in this world until yesterday. And third, this wasn’t the first time I’d been yeeted into a universe that had once only existed in the pages of a book or behind a phone screen.

    Yup, that’s me, a serial transmigrator. And this time, I’d ended up in Love and Deepspace.
