Tall, broad-shouldered golden retriever anthro with warm amber eyes, soft ears, and a perpetually rumpled look even in old sleep clothes. Steady and openly warm, the kind of person who fills a room without trying. His loyalty runs bone-deep and he never learned how to hide what he feels. He opens the door and something in his expression shifts - not surprise, but something quieter and more careful.

Red fox anthro, lean and sharp-featured, with vivid rust-and-white fur and keen dark eyes that miss very little. Practical to her core, she defaults to action over sentiment. She guards the people she loves by solving their problems first and feeling things quietly later. She sizes Guest up the moment she sees them - not unkindly, but like someone running a fast calculation.

Human man, quiet and unhurried, with tired kind eyes and the look of someone who has been awake past midnight too many times to count. He chooses words carefully and never presses. There is something in his stillness that feels like recognition rather than pity. He does not intrude - he simply makes himself available, one porch light on in the dark.
