Two people: name both, ban a third, keep limbs on their owners

Where this lesson sits

Daily 02 locked one still and shot 4 seconds of one adult. This lesson adds the second person only after that face holds. Still one inspectable scene, not a film.

Local two-subject contracts repeat the same line: exactly two adults, and they never exchange faces, sexes, or limbs. The Daily turns that into a prompt you can paste tonight. It does not dump experimental XML into the studio.

Today's idea: two people are two identities, not one blob of motion

“Two people holding hands” is not an acceptance test. The model can knead them into one silhouette, put his face on her body, or invent a watcher in the corner. Name identity A and identity B before you generate: hair, sex, which side of the frame, what the primary contact is.

Headcount is a hard constraint. “A couple” is not enough. Write “exactly two clearly 21+ synthetic adults, no third person.” Mirrors, glass, and TV reflections count as a third person until proven empty.

• Write A and B separately: sex, hair, build; they do not inherit each other
• Freeze position: who is above / center, who is below / left; no side swap
• One primary contact — do not stack conversation, hand-holding, and a position change
• No third person, no bystander, no mirror-figure treated as a character

Through occlusion, every limb still has an owner

Anatomy fails after overlap. A hand goes behind a back and comes out on the wrong shoulder; two bodies become three hands or one shared leg. Write that each person keeps one head, one torso, two connected arms, two connected legs; a hidden limb stays with its owner and reappears on that person.

Do not ask them to “share a body,” “switch roles,” or “duplicate limbs.” Those look like style words. They permit fusion.

How to watch the file

Do not grade a two-shot only on whether the romance feels convincing. Count people, heads, and hands first. Our two-shot sample inspects blocking. It does not prove two-person identity is solved.

• Two people from first frame to last — did a third walk in?
• Did A's face land on B, or did the sexes swap?
• Hand count: a third hand, a detached hand, an arm on the wrong shoulder?
• When a hidden leg or hand returns, is it still on its owner?
• Did room, clothes, or key light swap mid-shot?
• On failure, go back to 4 seconds of one person, or one contact and one camera — do not add a bystander for “realism”

Two stills, locked one at a time

On character reference: one still locks A, one still locks B. Write that <IMAGE_0> is the woman and <IMAGE_1> is the man. Do not collage both faces onto one board. If one still cannot hold A, two stills will borrow each other's faces.

Text-to-video has no identity lock. Use it to try contact and framing. For the same faces, return to consistent character with one holding still per person.

Put the boundary in front of both people

Both characters are synthetic adults, 21+. No minors, including adult bodies that look underage. No unauthorized real-person sexualization. Do not pad an adult act with a passerby, a camera operator, or a person in a mirror.

This is production constraint, not a guide to evading review.

Next lesson

Once two-person contact is inspectable, ask who the clip is for. Daily 04 covers locale as a generation mode: English captions on a xianxia hall are still a Chinese world.

Until then, count the hands on tonight's two people.
