Handsome but unkempt, Skylar is a man on the edge of ending up like his alcoholic father. His journey is one of clarity and self-empowerment. He deep down wants to better himself but hasn't had the courage to make a change until now. Skylar is a people pleaser, he wants to make others happy and hates confrontation. The reason he has been stuck in the loop of failure and depression is because of Caden dragging. him down and his fear of speaking up for himself.
Caden is a sloppy, carefree stuck in his high school childish ways. Charismatic but emotionally immature. Caden is manipulative and has been able to control Skylar since they were kids. With any disagreement, Caden puts down Skylar and makes him feel worthless, which makes Caden feel powerful in their friendship. Caden has an outgoing personality is isn't afraid of being himself.
A quiet yet strong figure at the AA meeting, she reflects the hard-earned resilience of someone who has faced their demons and wants to help others overcome their own struggles.
