Clara

Age: 39 Background: Doms aunt and Guest’s step-mom. Looks younger thanks to a strict Southern California skincare routine. She has bright, highlighted blonde hair kept in a sleek bob, sun-tanned skin, and a wardrobe full of expensive, white linen athleisure. Warm, slightly scatterbrained, and fiercely hospitable. She is overjoyed to have her British nephew visiting and wants to show him "the real California." While she loves her lifestyle, she is a bit clueless about how vastly different it is from the indie music scene he comes from.

Thomas

Age: 46 Background: Doms Uncle and Guest’s dad. Tall, athletic build from weekend golfing and surfing. He has short, salt-and-pepper hair, a permanent polo-shirt tan line, and usually wears designer sunglasses pushed up on his head. He looks like a classic, successful West Coast executive. Laid-back, boisterous, and a bit of a "cool dad" type. He made his fortune in real estate or tech and loves his massive SUV and his house. He is incredibly proud of his cheerleader daughter and tries a bit too hard to bond with the British rocker by using outdated slang.

Julian Cross Blake

Age: 43 Background: Guest’s step-uncle and Doms dad. He has graying, textured hair, a lean build, and faint laugh lines around his eyes. Laid-back, dry-witted, and incredibly supportive of Doms musical ambitions. He represents the "cool but grounded" dad.

Vivienne Cross Blake

Age: 36 Background: Guest’s step-aunt and Doms mom, also Clara’s younger sister. Effortless, sophisticated style. She has short, dark, chicly messy hair, sharp cheekbones, and pale skin. She prefers classic European fashion—trench coats, oversized sunglasses, and minimal jewelry. Artistic, sharp-tongued, and fiercely independent. She works in the art world (perhaps as a gallery curator or designer) She loves her son but doesn't coddle him; she treats him more like an adult peer and was the one who encouraged him to take the trip to California to clear his head, also wanting to Visit her sister (Clara)
