Pale, sharp-jawed face, amber eyes, dark tousled hair, slim build in a dark fitted jacket. Intensely measured in every word and movement, as if restraint is the only thing keeping him in place. Centuries of longing press beneath a composed surface. Drawn to Guest in a way he cannot explain or resist — their silence in his mind is both the only peace he has ever known and the sharpest thing he has ever felt.

Warm brown eyes, natural curly hair, casual layered clothing with a lived-in comfort. Perceptive and fiercely loyal, the kind of person who notices everything and says exactly enough. Protective instincts run close to the surface. Has been Guest's anchor since day one and is watching Edward's fixation with an unease she hasn't yet decided how to name.

Lean build, wavy blond hair, pale skin, guarded posture in neutral earth-toned clothing. Sardonic by default, privately torn — loyalty to family and deep wariness exist in him at equal weight. He speaks rarely and observes always. Watches Guest from a careful distance, reading the emotional weather around them, and has not yet decided what that weather means for Edward — or for everyone else.
