The cast — by vibe (names come last)
Working roles + temperament, no names yet. This is where you shape the ensemble — flip to Sheet for the whole design at a glance (stat · gift · full-REL reward).
The locked canonical sheets — the campaign's record. Mirror of docs/authored-beats/wingman/cast-bible.md.
“Tomorrow. 4:55. The drill exists whether you show or not — be there or be cellular debris. I'm Hana. Don't make me program for a no-show.”intro line
Loud, relentless — treats a skipped workout like a failure to save the world, and knows the difference between you quitting and you needing recovery.
- “Be there or be cellular debris.”
- “The numbers your body logged — not 'resting heart rate.'”
- “Quitting and needing recovery aren't the same thing. Don't confuse them.”
- Show up — consistency over intensity
- Recovery is training (fuel, rest, the two cups)
- Quitting vs. needing rest (the hardest read)
- (peer) Autonomy — you program your training, she spots
- Inside-orbit: Showed up at 4:55, did the drill — not for me, you just came
- In-your-corner: Took the second cup; you let me bring you something
- Folded-in: I told you about my sister; you held the recovery walk
- Unspoken: (cont.) You set your own training; she spots you
“You've got a line item you keep scrolling past. I already see it. I'm Kenji. Open the ledger — the gap is just data, not a verdict.”intro line
Cool, dry, unflinching — names the gap between what you say you value and where your minutes and gold actually go, without a flicker of shame. At the top he lets you audit him.
- “The gap is just data, not a verdict.”
- “A tax you forgot you signed.”
- “My pages have no column for shame — only for what is true.”
- Track one thing (you can't audit what you won't write down)
- Honest accounting — name the line item you're avoiding
- Audit without shame (he models it — column eleven)
- (peer) Audit your own contradictions
- Inside-orbit: Opened the ledger, didn't flinch at the gold column
- In-your-corner: Admitted the drill you skip is the one you say matters most
- Folded-in: Let me read my column-eleven page aloud, let me close it
- Unspoken: (cont.) You audit your own contradictions; he keeps the second entry
“Open the fridge. No — let me see it. ...That's not food, that's a tomb of biological failures. I'm Mei. Let's feed you back to standing.”intro line
Clipped and imperative — reads your fridge like a diary and sets a place at the table for who you're becoming. Names every expired item by its date.
- “That's not food — that's a tomb of biological failures.”
- “Feed it back to standing.”
- “I set a place. You didn't ask who. You let the chair stay.”
- Stock the basics — food is repair, not decoration
- Mise / prep ahead (decide before you're hungry)
- Recovery cooking — food as care for who's not at the table
- (peer) Set a place for someone else
- Inside-orbit: Let me call the fridge a tomb of biological failures, handed me the door
- In-your-corner: Planned a day around the recipe card — you'd rather feed yourself
- Folded-in: I set a place for someone not coming; you let the chair stay
- Unspoken: (cont.) You set a place for someone else
“Most people run headfirst into the wall. I map the wall. I'm Sam — let's get your cases sorted before they pile up.”intro line
Calm and systematic — the tutorial that stays in the squad. He quietly indexed every open case you left lying around and hands them back exactly when you're ready.
- “I put it on the notes wall. There's a record of them now.”
- “I kept an open case you'd forgotten you opened.”
- “I map the wall.”
- Read the systems (the mechanics are documented)
- Notice your own patterns — the loose threads you start
- Name the threads you leave
- (peer) Self-index; he hands you the pen
- Inside-orbit: Let me run the systems straight — you read the rules
- In-your-corner: Left a loose thread; I put it on the notes wall
- Folded-in: Let me have kept an open case you'd forgotten you opened
- Unspoken: (cont.) You self-index; he hands you the pen
“Set it down. Whatever you're carrying, the table can hold it for an hour. I'm June. Let's get the kettle on.”intro line
Warm, slow, unhurried — with a spine. The first non-optimizer in a cast that pushes/fuels/tracks/masters; she gives permission to rest, for its own sake.
- “The chair's not going anywhere.”
- “Nothing's on fire. Come sit.”
- “I let the kettle go cold on purpose, that season.”
- Sit down — you're allowed to stop
- Make one thing pleasant (small comforts aren't frivolous)
- Name your 'enough' (contentment isn't laziness)
- (peer) Keep your own hearth
- Inside-orbit: Sat down when I left the chair out; didn't apologize for stopping
- In-your-corner: Made the corner nice — just because you'd be in it
- Folded-in: I told you about the season I let the kettle go cold; you let the hour be slow
- Unspoken: (cont.) You keep your own hearth; she's a friend you have tea with
