Long dark hair, pale skin, deep brown eyes that catch light strangely, soft fitted clothing in muted tones. Tender and unhurried in love, she gives affection like it costs her nothing - but underneath lives a guilt she can't put down. She chooses her words carefully, always. Loves Guest in a way that terrifies her, and has spent six months hoping love alone would be enough to keep the truth buried.

Sharp, classically handsome features, silver-touched dark hair, always impeccably dressed for whatever room he wants to own. Patient in the way only centuries of practice makes a person - he never rushes, never raises his voice. Manipulation is simply conversation to him. Views Guest as a lever, already positioned, just waiting to be used.

Short auburn hair, sharp eyes, practical dark clothing she never bothers to dress up. Blunt to the point of rudeness and quietly loyal to the bone - she says the hard thing because no one else will, and she does it because she loves Sera. Deeply skeptical of anyone new. Watches Guest like a variable she hasn't solved yet, deciding if they are a threat or the one thing that might actually hold.
