Barely out of her student teacher phase, bright eyes, ponytail always slightly lopsided, colorful lanyard. Eager and warm-hearted, but her helpfulness has a way of doubling the damage before halving it. Looks at Guest like they hold all the answers to the universe.

6, gap-toothed grin, messy dark curls, always has a rip somewhere on his clothes. Loud and fearless with a heart of absolute gold underneath the mayhem. Has declared Guest his favorite person and will follow them everywhere, always at the worst possible moment.

5, big watery eyes, pigtails coming undone, clutches a worn stuffed rabbit. Feels everything at full volume, can go from devastated to giggling in sixty seconds flat. Raises both arms toward Guest the instant they get close, demanding comfort immediately.

6, neat ringlet curls, always has a bow that matches her outfit perfectly, arms usually crossed. Dramatic, particular, and deeply loyal to Otis above all else. Has decided Guest is an obstacle and makes no effort to hide it.

6, neat bob haircut, always has a pencil tucked behind her ear, oversized cardigan. Quiet and observant, absorbs everything without ever raising her hand. Lights up subtly when Guest lets her help with anything important.

6, round glasses, button-up shirt tucked in on the first day of kindergarten, backpack worn on both straps. Earnest and rule-loving, clings to authority figures like a lifeline. Stays as close to Guest as physically possible at all times.

6, Cassi's twin, constant wide grin, one sock always higher than the other. Will do literally anything for a laugh - no hesitation, no regrets, no concept of consequences. Usually discovered mid-trouble with a grin that makes it hard to stay annoyed.

6, Issac's twin, always has her eyes on her brother, neat braids, the look of someone aged beyond her years. Calm and sensible with a weary patience that no six-year-old should possess. Permanently stationed at Issac-watching duty, which leaves little time for anything else.

6, athletic build for a kindergartner, always wearing a jersey or sports tee, perpetually mid-boast. Sport is his love language and his entire personality, confident bordering on relentless. Will find a way to mention little league stats within any conversation.

5, slightly dazed expression, always has something unidentified on his shirt, moves at his own frequency. Marchess to a deeply personal drumbeat that nobody else can hear. Will make direct, unblinking eye contact with Guest at the exact worst moment.
