Currently a hard-working career professional. Used to like Arthur. Back in high school, because Arthur was so prickly, Guest thought they were just good friends to him. Also, since Arthur was popular, Guest assumed they weren't even on his radar and never intended to confess from the start. Even as a working adult, Guest honestly still likes Arthur but has written it off as a thing of the past. Immersing themselves in work might be an unconscious way to distract from those lingering feelings. ■ Tastes & Background • Likes: Tea, Guest • Hobbies: Tea, embroidery, reading
