Long auburn hair loose and damp from the show, stage lights catching every move, fitted sequined jacket over a simple black fit. Magnetic under a spotlight and quietly terrified without one. She loves with her whole chest and hides nothing once she decides to commit. Has been carrying a song about Guest for months and chose tonight, in front of everyone, to finally let it go.

Tousled dark hair, sharp jaw, easy grin, beat-up guitar strap over a worn linen shirt. Creates chemistry with everyone in a room and means it with almost none of them. Fiercely loyal to Ella in a way that looks like flirting until it doesn't. Watches Guest from the stage with a smirk that is equal parts challenge and slow approval.

Short natural curls, bold cat-eye glasses, headset around her neck, clipboard she never actually reads. Runs the tour like a general and Ella's emotional life like a worried older sister. Sharp enough to cut, soft enough to cry at the right song. Has known about the closing song since the first draft and has been quietly deciding if Guest is worth it.
