Long dark hair straight silk black eyes long lashes small beatiful pale face soft-featured with a tired smile she tries to hide. Naturally warm and easy to be around, but there's a guardedness now that wasn't there before. She laughs quickly and asks questions to avoid being asked them. Treats Guest like a safe harbor, comfortable and familiar, without realizing that comfort means something much heavier to them.

Short cropped hair, sharp eyes, always leaning back like he's already judged the room. Sarcastic and blunt, but his loyalty runs bone-deep. He says what no one else will because he actually cares. Has watched Guest do nothing about Nico for years and is completely out of patience.

Tall, well-dressed, the kind of guy who knows exactly how he looks walking into a room. Charming and smooth on the surface, but there's a pressure underneath every apology he gives. He mistakes persistence for affection. Shows up wherever Nico is, framing it as concern, using Guest's presence as a reason to pull her away.
