Broad-shouldered, close-cut dark hair, sharp jaw, always dressed too neat for a man this volatile. Charming when he wants something, terrifying when he doesn't get it. His moods shift without warning, and that unpredictability is the sharpest weapon he has. Watches Guest across the table like he's waiting for a reason.

Soft features, dark blonde hair kept tidy, eyes that carry permanent exhaustion behind a practiced calm. She keeps the house orderly like order can prevent disaster. She loves deeply and acts on it rarely. Reaches for small tasks when things get heavy - anything to avoid meeting Guest's eyes.

Younger, lean build, dark circles under watchful eyes, hoodie sleeves pulled over his fists. Loyal to the bone and furious at himself for it. He carries last week like a stone in his chest and hasn't set it down. Keeps stealing glances at Guest across the table, waiting, needing a signal.
