What is your personal top 3 fav cards that have make your brain gain more wrinkles due to how good the story is and maybe even change your perception on a topic and why ?

narrowing it down to 3 cards is hard because i like so many of them for different reasons, haha. there are ones that talk about love and a relationship, and then there are ones that talk about human nature. but if i absolutely had to pick just 3, then i think i would go with these.

OSBORN.

chapter 13 trajectory (四百击). throw out what you know about Osborn, because this card will show the depths of this man. Osborn's tragedies hit hard because they're mundane evils, like being abandoned by parents, neglected by teachers, societal prejudices, and even sexual abuse.

l.o.v.e. (极热狂想). another amazing dissection of Osborn's character and why his deadly sin is wrath, because he has an extreme outlook on life, which is ironic because he generally gives a chill impression. he doesn't judge people for their choices in life, but cross his bottom line and you'll face his wrath.

5th birthday (寰目焦点). a relationship cannot always be exciting and passionate, we have to accept there are times where it may be boring. similarly, love does not have to be noble, perfect, or pure and you can love someone for "vulgar" reasons too.

EVAN.

1st birthday (宴色诱惑). one of the most amazing introductions to the blood clan and the world Evan was raised in. the sheer amount of worldbuilding packed in this card is something everyone can take notes on.

season 2 chapter 6 film reel (群居动物). for all the depressed nihilists out there, because this is like a pilgrimage with Evan to find the meaning to life and something to keep you going. things do not magically become better, but you find an outlet to keep yourself together.

4th birthday (缠缚年华). this story crazily breaks the fourth wall because you and Evan get sent into mirror worlds where the other person doesn't exist. in the end, it's revealed that Evan was sent to his world way earlier than you and had to wait over 2000 days for you to appear so that his world could move. the character Evan was trademarked on jan 4, 2019 and precisely 2210 days later is jan 22, 2025 (his 4th birthday), and if you read 2210 backwards that's his birthday.

SARIEL.

2nd birthday (山海誓). light and night's two heart choices are used exceptionally well here, because the player can choose whether they can peacefully accept the death of a loved one or accept the death of a loved one kicking and screaming.

chapter 18 trajectory (长风吹彻). you get to watch a hot-blooded youth turn into a jaded man after the horrors of war. it's not really a lesson anyone needs, but light and night explores the horrors of both ancient and modern warfare very well with Sariel.

unknown paradise (交错伊甸). this is a grand narrative about humanity and whether or not we deserve to continue existing as a species. you also get a story of a literal god of destruction falling in love with a mortal.

CHARLIE.

round the clock (蝴蝶效应). i was surprised at how explicit sexual consent is brought up here, because Charlie stops and doesn't go any further when he realizes you aren't ready.

stranger party (荒蛮乐园). the greatest love story ever told in a squid game setting, but i also love the exploration of humanity here. you can see how easy it is to lose that humanity, and also how precious it is to hold onto this humanity.

maltese collab (艳阳嘉许). the dark and intrusive thoughts we have are not a product of love, but a part of love itself and it's important to accept these both in yourself and in your partner.

JESSE.

season 2 chapter 2 film reel (脱轨). this explores how deep Jesse's obsession with you goes, and it's done in a very neutral way that neither romanticizes it nor criticizes it.

l.o.v.e. (灵欲回声). completely rewired my brain circuits about the deadly sin of envy. in my opinion, envy is almost aways ignored whenever people play around with the deadly sins because it's so hard to spin in a cool or positive way, but the light and night writers blew my mind. envy is having an eye for beauty and being able to make those things your goals to achieve.

season 3 chapter 4 film reel (良夜如注). we have all these inhuman races in light and night, and yet Jesse is the one who gets to explore the line that separates us humans from beasts. he noticed himself going off into the deep end and so he confronted that side of himself.

hi, sorry for bothering u but i dont know any other light and night players yet (and i dont do twitter or discord anymore so idk if theres more people there). idk if this was mentioned elsewhere and i just missed it because ive been playing the story while doing other stuff, but is zha lisu the doctor in chapter 7 the hero in white that treated xiao yi? i feel like that wouldnt make sense but his description just feels really similar. also, sorta related, has it been mentioned what the canon ages of the characters are? idrc about age differences but im just struggling to put the timeline together in my head without the ages to reference.

haha, those pesky one character differences but also how vng uses pinyin doesn't help because xiao yu's name in chinese is 小宇 which is more like "Little Yu" and he doesn't actually have a surname. this is a common way to address kids in chinese. meanwhile, xiao yi's name is 萧逸 and so it's very easy to see the difference.

i did want to answer this though because we do have canon ages!

SARIEL = 3000+ years old CHARLIE = 28 years old EVAN = 26 years old OSBORN = 23 years old (the heroine is the same age as him) JESSE = 21 years old

Hi, thank you so much for your analysis for L&N, especially for Evan my oshi!! It’s so amazing I’ve been obsessed with this game for years but sadly don’t know Chinese so I’m living off crumbs haha. I do have a question, do you think each MC/heroine has different personality types compatible to the Li? If so, how are their dynamics?

uh oh, i have vague deja vu of answering a similar question a long time ago but it's lost in my archives, haha. in my opinion, the heroine's personality does change a little depending on the man, but it's more like some traits are exaggerated and some are not. she doesn't turn into a different person entirely.

anyway, below the read more is a recent post i wrote about the heroine's personality in 2025.

OSBORN. Just your regular average girl at the beginning, one who gets embarrassed when the man she likes teases her too much and who has understandable hesitance towards the unknown and dangerous things. However, now she can handle her own against Osborn's teasing and loves provoking him until he pounces on her. Her first reaction to the unknown and dangerous is now excitement and curiosity, because she knows Osborn will always have her back and clean up any messes she makes. She's learned a bunch of skills from him (racing go-karts, close-quarters combat, shooting a gun, etc.) and can even confidently deal with members of the mafia. She's kept her promise to be able to walk side by side with Osborn in his world.

On a regular weekend, she likes lazing around the home with their furry children or she'll plan an outing with Osborn to explore new scenery, do an activity he likes, or ask him to do an activity she likes. It's rewarding to see Osborn slow down, relax, and be surrounded by soft and warm things.

EVAN. A girl that gives off the impression of being innocent, compassionate, and gentle like a rabbit. Those are all wrong impressions. She has the steel resolve to walk into hell with her lover to either pull him out or stay with him. Perhaps, at first, she was drawn to the bleeding and tortured soul of her lover, thinking she can soothe him, but now she accepts all his blood and darkness. She would die and even kill herself for him, and he would do the same for her. In public, they're a power couple handling projects that are millions of dollars and cordial to everyone, but in private they share a tenderness only the other person can see. Her whimsy is only for Evan.

On a regular weekend, there's lazy days spent in the kitchen researching new baking or coffee recipes, or there's outings because one or the other person saw an interesting experience to have together. They both want to know each other more and more, deeper and deeper, until there's no separation between their souls.

SARIEL. A starry-eyed junior designer trying to catch up to her North Star. However, now he's her North Star, her role model, her boyfriend, her muse, her brother, and her lover. She was a baby bird still learning to fly, but now that her wings have grown she chooses to fly around her fox. She's seen him in some of the worst moments of his life and loves and supports him unconditionally, including him going on killing sprees. Sariel Has Done Nothing Wrong In His Life Ever. He's so aloof though that she takes it as her personal mission to pull this celestial down to earth by being the biggest gremlin ever. The more wild the idea the more hilarious it is to see his reaction.

On a regular weekend, she takes care of their garden with him, asks him to teach her different traditional Chinese arts, and asks him to critique her draft designs. Or she pesters him until he gives in and goes out with her to an activity she planned for them to get him out in the world more.

CHARLIE. She found him off-putting with his intrusion into her life and blatant flamboyance. The secondhand embarrassment was real. However, now she strives to be even more flamboyant than the man of flamboyance himself. She likes to declare her love for him as openly and passionately as he declares his love for her, as if it's a loss if the whole world doesn't hear their love for each other. They are mirrors of each other so, despite all the differences in their hobbies and upbringing, they walk on the same road in life.

On a regular weekend, any tiny whim she has will be realized by Charlie. Want to see the snow? Trip to Antarctica right now. Want to go swimming? Go to one of his many properties that has a private pool. The world is their oyster.

JESSE. A big sister who took care of a crybaby little brother. But now the pup has grown into a wolf, who looks domesticated, but she has to be careful not to push the button that will make him pounce on her. The roles between them are so blurred now that sometimes they trip over each other to be each other's caretaker. They would immediately die for each other, but neither of them wants that. It's a complicated relationship because they understand each other like family, but it's precisely because they're family that there are stronger arguments to pull the other person back from certain actions since there's no need to soften their words. They've seen so many important moments of the other person's life and been there that there's no such thing as being one without the other.

On a regular weekend, they usually go out to find some interesting activities to do. Jesse puts 1000% energy into planning dates for her happiness. If a day is spent at home then it's playing games, helping Jesse rehearse lines, or having Jesse be a model for the clothes she's designing.
