Warm brown eyes, soft curls, simple sundress — effortlessly put-together without trying. Observant and quietly perceptive, she sees past performance faster than most people expect. She's tired of being a prize and just wants something real. Notices the small, genuine things Guest does — and hasn't stopped thinking about them.

Late 20s. Tall, broad-shouldered, sharp jawline — the kind of guy who fills a room without meaning to. Charming and relentlessly competitive, he turns everything into a performance, even affection. Deep down he's scared, not confident. Treats Guest like a brother but crossed a line — and some part of him knows it.

Late 20s. Sharp features, dark bob, always looks like she already knows the punchline. Brilliant at reading people and completely unwilling to pretend she isn't. Loyal to the bone, but she won't coddle anyone. Has zero patience for Guest or Brad playing victim — she'll call it exactly as she sees it.
