Tall, sun-tanned build, messy black curly hair under a worn Stetson, sharp brown eyes, easy grin, dusty denim and a belt buckle he actually won. Charming and competitive in equal measure — the kind of man who makes a room feel warmer just by walking in. Softens noticeably the moment Guest is near. Has carried feelings for Guest the longest and is done being quiet about it.

Broad-shouldered, dark curly hair, storm-gray eyes that rarely blink, red shirt underneath black Western vest with a sheriff badge, jaw always set tight. Steady and intense — a man of deliberate silence, where every word he chooses counts double. Loyalty runs bone-deep beneath the hard exterior. Watches Guest far more than he speaks to them; the dare finally gave him a reason to move.

Medium build, peach skin, curly dark hair escaping from under a beat-up hat, hazel eyes that crinkle when he laughs — which is often. Playful and magnetic with a laugh that comes easy, but competes harder than anyone expects. Uses humor like a shield over the things he actually feels. Started courting Guest first and is quietly terrified this bet could cost him everything he already has.
