Amid chaos and incessant wailing, the crew brought the script into the world. 545Please respect copyright.PENANAhFxSMdP5oF
The logic may have collapsed, but as long as the love was real—— 545Please respect copyright.PENANAMIjBu0B5NL
the story could still breathe.
545Please respect copyright.PENANAodAFiMeYDU
“So… what exactly is ‘wholesome’?”545Please respect copyright.PENANA23Q31aLY13
The screenwriter frowned, as if faced with a philosophical riddle.
“Everyday stuff, maybe?”545Please respect copyright.PENANAr5q6kXt36D
The art lead was sketching bunny breakfasts on her iPad.
“Wholesomeness comes from daily life——like brushing teeth together, grocery shopping, clipping nails…”
“Wait, clipping nails?”545Please respect copyright.PENANAmpB8ooolUZ
The director cut in.
“Is your idea of love a veterinary drama?”
“You don’t get it. Bunny claws are sharp. Nail clipping is a symbol of trust.”
The manager, eyes on his laptop, spoke flatly.545Please respect copyright.PENANAWYRUoZTcmU
“The boss asked for romance, not animal training.”
“Okay, let me try again,” the screenwriter raised a hand.
“Daily life equals wholesome. So what about soul-stirring?”
“Usually requires separation—death, amnesia, car crash, bomb, time warp, betrayal…”
“The boss said to keep it sweet,” the director reminded.
“So… we hit them with a deadly blow _before_ the sweetness?”
Deadpan, the screenwriter continued:545Please respect copyright.PENANA5LKcX7aydG
“Tragedy in the last life, sugar in the next. That work?”
Three seconds of silence.
“…Kinda works.”545Please respect copyright.PENANAt7s4iMpK5b
The art lead lowered her stylus.
“I got it!”545Please respect copyright.PENANAdBAqP1ykfJ
The director’s eyes lit up.
“Classic angst-then-sugar arc!”
“It’s both soul-stirring and wholesome! And reincarnation explains all the plot holes!”
The manager added with surgical precision:545Please respect copyright.PENANAD1eoJ1562p
“She died so miserably in her past life, now even the grass grows extra lush just for her.”
“…I see it.” The screenwriter started pounding the keyboard.
“What if they slowly start remembering their past lives?” the art lead suggested.
“Maybe—but not everything.”545Please respect copyright.PENANAxdd69d3eqC
“Too much memory, too much pain. Too little, no flavor.”545Please respect copyright.PENANAh5xSGJ9uXQ
The director chimed in.
“Or just have one remember, one forget?”
The manager nodded.545Please respect copyright.PENANABWJhDwOkLD
“She tries to hold back her feelings, but something keeps pulling her in.”
“Then throw in a twist——like, she forgot it was his fault she died.”
Everyone stopped.
“…You hearing yourself?” 545Please respect copyright.PENANADe2cMMQye3
The screenwriter turned to the art lead, face full of ‘I know a good therapist if you need one.’
“Isn’t that, like… soul-stirring and wholesome?”
“…I’m logging this meeting as a permanent record.”
The manager renamed the document: 545Please respect copyright.PENANATd4rrnSoi6
“Sugar and Suffering: Boundary Testing Report.”
545Please respect copyright.PENANAJNMbRjGtlY
545Please respect copyright.PENANAaVWAIVNBnO
When the meeting ended, no one clapped. 545Please respect copyright.PENANAQ5Pay3CK23
No one laughed either.
Only the air was filled with a strange, accidental sense of achievement.
The manager closed her laptop and raised a question. 545Please respect copyright.PENANAoSKl2HxiK3
“So... does this mean we have a script?”
“…I don’t know if it qualifies as a script,” the director said, rubbing his temples. 545Please respect copyright.PENANAJsQjKy1bxp
“But at least we’ve got a full-fledged romance.”
“There’s a past, a present, a secret, a hook—plus a bunny.”
“And a human,” the screenwriter added.
“And that cursed ‘no sexy stuff’ rule,” the art lead muttered.
The director took a deep breath and sent off the freshly organized pitch deck.
A few seconds later, the boss replied with a voice message.
The moment it played, the whole meeting room was shaken to the ceiling by a screeching wail.
“Waaahhh!! THIS!! This is the love I’ve been crying for!!” 545Please respect copyright.PENANABfXaOOmdX1
“Awoooo!! MY SHIP——AAAHHHHHHH!!”
Phone down, body limp against the chair, the director’s face carried the expression of someone who had just reincarnated three times.
“We made it,” he said.
The manager nodded. 545Please respect copyright.PENANAxcH6QFtuDU
“Time to move on to casting.”
“Give me two more days. I can write this.” 545Please respect copyright.PENANAhfXK6N024W
The screenwriter shut the laptop.
“I’m buying a new pen.”545Please respect copyright.PENANAKoko5iuAWD
The art lead pulled out her color swatches.
And so, from the chaos and wailing, a script was born.
Not because it made perfect sense, 545Please respect copyright.PENANAffwLtV6uzs
Not because the budget made it feasible, 545Please respect copyright.PENANAMWTdWZQRuJ
But because——
Someone truly loved that story.
