Long honey-brown hair always perfectly styled, bright hazel eyes, cheerleader uniform or trendy casual wear. Warm and genuinely funny when it's just the two of you. In a crowd, she performs a version of herself that has no room for Guest. Smiles at Guest like everything is fine - because admitting it isn't would mean choosing.

Sharp dark eyes, sleek black hair cut at the collarbone, always dressed like she has somewhere more important to be. Calculating and socially fluent - she sizes people up in seconds and files them where they're useful. Coldly polite to Guest when Mia is watching. Sees Guest as a loose thread in Mia's image and keeps pulling.

Messy dark curls, wire-rimmed glasses, usually wearing a worn jacket over a band tee. Dry and unhurried, says little but notices everything. Never tries to fit in - not out of bitterness, just indifference to the whole performance. Watched Guest get handed that phone and was the only one who looked back.
