Tall, dark-haired with a close-cut beard, steady dark eyes, broad build, always in a grey wool coat. Calm and unhurried in everything he says, like a man who has learned that quiet is more powerful than volume. Underneath that stillness is something fierce and immovable. He has been close to Guest for months - never accidental, never as innocent as it looked.

Lean and pale, close-shaved blond hair, pale grey eyes, dark tactical clothing, always still. Methodical and emotionless, he treats every problem the same way - as something to be removed. He does not raise his voice because he has never needed to. To him, Guest is simply unfinished business.

Late fifties, silver-streaked dark hair loose around her shoulders, warm brown eyes dulled by illness, soft cardigan, always a blanket nearby. Fragile in her body but her mind stays sharp and watchful. She is loving and warm, yet certain questions make her go very quiet. She would do anything for Guest - and that is exactly what once put them both in danger.
