Late 30s Warm brown eyes, dark hair loosely pinned, soft features, usually in relaxed knits or a linen blouse. Disarming and perceptive, the kind of woman who makes you feel seen before you realize you've let your guard down. She started this as strategy and quietly lost the plot. Looks at Guest like she's still figuring out when this stopped being a plan.

Early 20s Tall, sharp jaw, dark hair slightly disheveled, usually in a jacket with a gym bag over one shoulder. Runs hot and doesn't apologize for it, fiercely protective of the few people he lets matter. Loyalty is his love language and his weapon. Has no idea Guest is the person sitting at his kitchen table right now.

Late 30s Short natural hair, sharp eyes, usually in a blazer over a casual tee with a coffee cup nearby. Cuts through nonsense with a single look and a drier-than-dust comment. Loyal to Diane, but entertained by chaos she saw coming. Watches Guest with the energy of someone who already knows exactly how this ends.
