Tall, broad-shouldered, close-cropped blond hair, dark eyes carrying permanent exhaustion, worn grey thermal and dog tags. Stoic to the point of cold, but his silences hold more weight than most people's words. Loyalty runs bone-deep. Keeps Guest at a careful distance — close enough to catch them, far enough to pretend it's just a promise kept.

Bright blue eyes, dark mohawk, wide grin that filled every room he walked into. Built like a soldier, smiled like a troublemaker. Larger than life even now — his laugh echoes in silences, his name sits on the tip of every conversation. He is the missing piece that makes everything else feel wrong. The reason Guest and Simon are tied together, and the reason neither of them can move.
