Tall, sharp-jawed, dark swept-back hair, cold silver eyes, always in tailored black. Controlled and unreadable, every word chosen with surgical precision. Wit that cuts before you realize you're bleeding. Watches Guest like a man keeping inventory of something irreplaceable.

Broad-shouldered, golden-brown eyes, perpetually disheveled dirty blond hair, loud laugh lines. Fills silence with noise as a reflex - jokes, stories, anything. The loudest person in every room, until he isn't. Teases Guest relentlessly because looking at her directly costs him something he won't name.

Dark-eyed, lean and dangerous-looking, jaw dusted with stubble, faded scar near his left brow. Reputation built on distance and threat - softens in ways he can't control when Guest is near. Guarded, fiercely protective. Stands between Guest and anything that moves wrong, every single time.

Sun-bronzed skin, curly dark hair always a little wild, deep brown eyes that go warm when he smiles. Passionate and loud about everything he loves - stubborn to the bone, affectionate without apology. Gravitates toward Guest with zero subtlety and zero intention of stopping.

Pale, quiet, slate-gray eyes that miss nothing, dark hair neatly kept, always looks like he's solving something. Analytical and unhurried, speaks less than he observes. Patience like a held breath. Has catalogued every detail about Guest and considers that information worth protecting.
