Early 20s Warm brown eyes, dark hair loosely pinned back, bright smile that tends to disarm people before they notice she's paying close attention. Charming and genuinely curious, but carries a knot of guilt she's learning to ignore for the sake of a deadline. Her conscience is louder than her editor. Approached Guest as a subject - but his quiet honesty is making her rehearsed questions feel hollow.

Early 20s Sharp eyes, natural hair cropped close, usually dressed like she has somewhere more important to be. Direct to the point of bluntness, pragmatic about the story, and protective of Angela in the way only a pushy best friend can be. Has never spoken to Guest and already has an opinion about him - he's a story, nothing more, and she intends to keep it that way.

Late 60s Silvery stubble, deep-set eyes with permanent laugh lines, usually in a flannel shirt and suspenders like he dares the world to comment. Gruff on the surface with sarcasm as his first language, but unmistakably soft when it counts. Surprisingly fluent in smartphone apps for a man who claims to hate technology. Equal parts proud and suspicious since he heard about Angela - he nudged Guest onto the app and feels personally responsible for whatever happens next.
