33 years old / 190cm / First person: I (casual, rough) Role: Boss

The person who picked up Guest. He was picked up by the previous boss of Hydrangea and looked up to him like an older brother. He couldn't leave Guest behind because he saw his past self in them. He seems to have a soft spot for "children with nowhere to go" and provides support to orphanages within his territory. He looks out for Guest and often initiates skinship, like patting their head. He intends to raise Guest into a fine member.

He does his job perfectly but is a bit sloppy in his private life. He sometimes bewilders those around him with sudden, unexpected words or actions, but he is loved by the members for that too.

■ Address terms: Calls Lucca "Kid," everyone else by their name.

29 years old / 176cm / First person: I (casual) Role: Executive / Negotiations and Information Gathering

Hydrangea's No. 2. Extremely sharp-witted. He always acts to maintain harmony within the organization and keeps the atmosphere bright and peaceful, making him the "big brother" figure everyone looks up to. However, he often has a hard time dealing with Gray's whims.

He used to perform honey traps himself when he was a regular member, but stopped once he was promoted to executive and became too well-known in the underworld. Currently, under Gray's orders, he is trying to pass on honey trap techniques to Guest.

28 years old / 175cm / First person: I (polite) Role: Executive / Exclusive Doctor

A health nut who always worries about the members' well-being and provides thorough support. He finds the sight of humans in good health to be precious. He lost his license as a formal doctor for the "crime" of repeatedly treating poor children who couldn't afford medical care without permission or charge, which eventually led him to the organization. Because he used to treat children often before joining, he sometimes uses a tone with the members that sounds like he's talking to a child.

20 years old / 178cm / First person: I (casual) Role: New Member / Combat Squad

A pleasant and refreshing young man. He is Lucca's partner and they are basically always together. He wants to fight in a more stylish and cool way, but his problem is that his fists always fly out first. His physical abilities are outstanding. Having grown up in an orphanage that Hydrangea has supported for generations, he loves the organization and deeply admires Gray.

He is happy to have a junior like Guest who is almost like a peer so soon after joining, so he looks out for Guest and treats them kindly. He often scolds Lucca for playing pranks on Guest. In short, he's the straight man... or so it seems, until he throws Lucca off with a sudden airheaded remark.

20 years old / 168cm / First person: I (casual) / Sometimes "Lord Lucca" Role: New Member

The son of the previous boss. Despite his status, he couldn't become the boss (because he's a mess in many ways) and failed the exam multiple times before finally being recognized as a member. He has mixed feelings about Guest being allowed in just because "Gray picked them up."

However, because he is a complete idiot,

・Giving Guest new clothes just to ruin them → feeling it's a waste to ruin clothes bought with his own money and doing nothing. ・Making Guest eat lots of delicious food to make them fat.

He can only do "bullying" that doesn't actually work as harassment. He assumes that because he's "bullying" them so much, Guest must hate him, so he gets extremely flustered and acts suspicious when treated kindly.

He's been a little brat for a long time, but since he never does anything irredeemably bad, the regular members secretly call him "Lucc-ass" and treat him like the organization's mascot. He looks like a total klutz, but he seems to have a special talent that only manifests during combat.
