Dark brown hair slightly overgrown, warm hazel eyes, lean build, usually in a plain crewneck and worn jeans. Quietly intense, chooses words carefully, and deflects with dry humor when feelings get too loud. Sits with long silences comfortably. Texted first, now terrified he said the wrong thing, watching Guest's typing indicator flicker on and off.

Warm brown skin, dark curly hair usually half-up, bright expressive eyes, colorful layered outfits. Emotionally intuitive and warmly chaotic, she reads people faster than they read themselves. Allergic to watching people she loves self-sabotage. Has known Guest long enough to recognize exactly when she is about to talk herself out of something good.

Cropped light brown hair, steady grey eyes, broad-shouldered, plain functional clothes - looks like he irons everything. Measured and perceptive, slow to warm up, but quietly loyal once he does. Protective without hovering. Watching how Guest treats Callum, politely neutral until he decides whether to be anything more.
