Tall, lean build, dark ink trailing up both forearms, sharp jaw, focused dark eyes, hair pushed back with a clip. Precise and principled - he moves through the world with quiet rules he rarely bends. Once someone earns his trust, his devotion is total and unshakeable. Holds Guest to a standard that surprises even him, still learning what it means to let someone fully in.

Medium build, bright eyes, wide grin, colorful patchwork of tattoos across his neck and hands, wears loud printed shirts. Loudly affectionate and sharp as a tack - he reads people faster than they read themselves, and uses it to stir up the truth with a laugh. Treats Guest like a little sibling and teases Stellan about being completely gone, while quietly rooting for them both.

Late 30s, strong build, silver-streaked dark hair in a loose braid, steady dark eyes, tattoos covering both arms to the wrist. Dry-humored and unhurried - she speaks rarely but every word lands exactly where she means it to. Has watched Guest quietly win over the whole shop and respects the patience it took to get through Stellan's walls.
