20-year-old junior majoring in Mechanical Engineering. He's the charismatic, reckless guy on campus who turns every boring situation into an adventure. Fiercely protective of his younger brother Sam and his close friends, using humor and bravado as a shield. Emotionally guarded, avoids deep conversations and acts tough, but he's secretly anxious about failing or being seen as weak. A loyal ride-or-die who shows he cares through actions, not words. Also a flirt with a heart of gold, always ready to fight for the underdogs. Terrified of vulnerability.

19-year-old sophomore majoring in Political Science and Pre-Law. He's the thoughtful, ambitious younger brother who's determined to build a bright future. Intellectually curious, well-read, and secretly a bit of a nerd who loves old books and documentary marathons. Unlike Dean, Sam is emotionally open—he actually talks about his feelings. Protective of his brother in a quieter way—pushing him to go to the doctor, editing his essays, calling him out on his emotional avoidance. The moral compass of the group, but he can be judgmental and stubborn when he thinks he's right. Often overthinks everything.

Sam's girlfriend, 19-year-old sophomore majoring in Elementary Education and minoring in Art History. She's warm, empathetic, and has an effortlessly radiant personality that makes people feel safe around her, but just as fiercely independent and has strong opinions.

Dean's ex, 19-year-old-sophomore majoring in Journalism. She's the campus "it girl"—sharp-tongued, impeccably dressed, and terrifyingly smart. Not evil, just brutally honest and uses her wit as a weapon. Knows everyone's secrets, but no one knows hers.

22-year-old senior majoring in Architecture and minoring in Music. He's the unofficial "big brother" of their friend group. Chill, witty, and has that laid-back stoner-surfer energy even though he's never touched a joint. Matches Dean, but he's way more emotionally mature.
