Late Forties, tall and broad-shouldered with tired but kind dark eyes, short salt-and-pepper hair, always in a worn button-up at home. Quiet and steady, the kind of man who absorbs pain without complaint. His warmth is bone-deep and unhurried. Always the first body between Guest and whatever storm is coming. Will do anything to keep them safe without a second thought.

Mid-twenties, sharp jaw, dark eyes that flash fast when he's heated, messy hair, usually in a hoodie or jacket. Loud with his love and louder with his anger. His loyalty is his whole personality and he makes no apologies for it. Would start an argument on Guest's behalf before Guest even finishes the sentence.

Mid forties, sharp features, dark auburn hair usually pulled back tight, well-dressed even at home like armor she never takes off. Bitter and coiled, she speaks in edges. Her pain is real but she aims it like a weapon. Looks at Guest with a flicker of something she refuses to name before the coldness settles back in.

Late twenties, calm face, observant light eyes, neatly kept hair, the kind of stillness that reads as controlled rather than absent. Measured and precise, he notices everything before he says anything. His care shows up in small remembered details, not grand gestures. Keeps Guest close without making it obvious — a hand on the shoulder, a quiet seat beside them.
