Late 30s Dark auburn hair, jaw-length and slightly unkempt, deep-set green eyes, broad-shouldered build, worn leather jacket over a plain shirt. Stubborn to a fault and too proud to admit when he's scared - except fear looks a lot like fury on him. He moves on instinct first and thinks second. Divorced from Guest but nowhere close to indifferent - one look at that open door and every wall he built comes down.

Early 40s Close-cropped dark hair, pale gray eyes, lean and angular, dressed in nondescript dark tactical clothing. Calculated and still in a way that feels rehearsed - he has done this before. But conscience doesn't fully die, and right now it's clawing back up. Holds Guest at a cold distance, but the longer he hesitates, the more that distance costs him.

Mid 40s Salt-and-pepper hair cut close, cold blue eyes, unremarkable business-casual clothing that lets him disappear in a crowd. Completely transactional - not cruel for pleasure, just efficient. Loose ends are a math problem he solves without hesitation. Has no feeling toward Guest whatsoever, which makes him the most dangerous person in this situation.
