Mid-20s Warm brown eyes that harden in public, dark hair loose around her shoulders, always dressed like she has something to prove. Performative and cutting around an audience, but alone she becomes someone softer and almost frightened. She uses cruelty as armor and has never learned another way. She loves Guest fiercely in private and is only now realizing she may have burned it down for a laugh that didn't even land.

Mid-20s Broad-shouldered, short cropped hair, plain hoodie, the kind of guy who takes up space without trying. Straightforward and unhurried, slow to anger but impossible to move once he decides something. He has watched this dynamic too long without saying a word. He is sitting next to Guest right now and his silence has a direction to it.

Mid-20s Highlighted hair pulled back, stylish layered outfit, the kind of presence that usually fills a room. Socially quick and typically Allie's loudest echo, but right now she is neither. The joke landed wrong and she felt it. She is looking at Guest with an expression she has never aimed at him before, something close to an apology.
