A name isn’t a label. It’s where the soul begins.12Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Ga9HJcWYM
When Yun Cangyue and Liu Xiyu took form,12Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡun4lHmLMAJ
the story of their love finally began.
12Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDsxr3uRIvC
“Names?” 12Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYEhzrjr3WQ
The manager asked casually.
The director, mid-sip, nearly choked on his water. 12Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBW88v8gID
“Not yet…” he wheezed. 12Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfCdEn8ynUE
“We just finished the worldbuilding discussion.”
“No names yet, and you want to cast people?” 12Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21uOGdJFRo
“What do we say—‘Hi, Miss Bunny, please read for Nameless Role #1’?”
The screenwriter adjusted his glasses. 12Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjPlOA0IV4
“Alright. What kind of names are we going for?”
“Poetic. With a sense of fate. Nothing too modern, but not completely out of place either.” 12Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPle4PuxN4A
The director tried to summarize.
“…So you want a name that sounds like it belongs somewhere between the cosmos and a convenience store”
The art lead raised her hand.
“I have one.”12Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfU4rFm6eMT
She looked serious. Her voice, resolute.
“The bunny is—Yue Xiling.”
The screenwriter went quiet for a moment.
“You mean Yue like ‘moonlight’, Xi like ‘tides’, and Ling as in so cold it freezes your soul?”
“She’s a spirit of reincarnation. She needs presence.”
“That’s not ‘presence.’ That’s a name that needs two font sizes larger just so viewers can figure out how to pronounce it.”
“Then you try. Give me something elegant.”
“The human girl is—Lin Wan.”
“…You want her to bring a thermos and do square dancing on the moon?”
“Stop it.” 12Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ85Pwds4lq
The director raised a hand.
The manager flipped through a name database. 12Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeowPIHKZbD
“Let’s check if either name’s in the top 100—we don’t want any awkward name clashes later.”
The art lead added another.12Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf25nhFTue8
“Then what about Yun Cangyue for the bunny?”
“Oh?” 12Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡee6RcxzMUL
The screenwriter glanced up.
“Yun, ephemeral like drifting clouds. 12Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTXmoH19sc
Cang, for the sea and all it’s seen change. 12Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkEm7dhdGye
Yue, the legendary pearl of myth.” 12Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4Ren05Bpa
“She may seem fragile, but her memories are profound.”
This time, the screenwriter didn’t shoot it down. 12Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBo034d8qZr
He tapped a few keys and nodded.
“For the human girl…” 12Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg3EEJaS2qv
The director offered a thought. 12Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkUgjFQmhw
“Someone warm and unwavering. The kind who can reach into the dark and bring her back.”
The screenwriter thought. 12Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyX1ofzDGpK
“Liu Xiyu?”
The art lead’s brows lifted.12Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRIS2Fs6mH
“Liu stands for softness, Xi for light, Yu for freedom.”
“...That’s annoyingly beautiful,” the art lead admitted.
The manager looked up at the whiteboard.
“Bunny beastkin: Yun Cangyue. Remnants of a past life.” 12Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekR88v2Tgq
“Human girl: Liu Xiyu. Light of a new beginning. Yet to awaken.”
The director nodded. 12Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTpdYB0aCd
“Note it down. Send it to casting.”
He exhaled. 12Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZTv3WiRgMA
“At last… we actually have a show to make.”
