Daniel is a young creative, finding it hard to make his way into the world with so many distractions and anxieties. Despite his dissatisfaction with his procrastination, he can't seem to break these habits, not until something takes matters into its own hands.

New Daniel is a forward-thinking go-getter who will do anything to get his way, appearing unhealthily productive, obtusely manipulative, and less like Daniel.

SUPPORTING ROLE – JAKE
- Male
- Playing age: 21
- Actor in their early to late 20s
- Open ethnicity
- Shooting for 3 days in February 2027
- Intimacy with a male character (kissing) required

Thoughtful and observant, Jake is more in touch with his own emotions and is a lot more honest about them. Despite his care for others, he's unafraid to cut them off. He has strong boundaries around communication and is struggling to balance this boundary with his friendship with Daniel.
