2 role s
The elder brother, weary and introspective, carrying the responsibility of survival after years hustling on the street. Grounded, world-wise, and haunted by choices made and paths not taken. Carries authority, but also deep exhaustion.
The younger brother, sharp but insecure, carrying the weight of abandonment and family trauma. Street-smart, brash, and fueled by the need to prove himself. He masks vulnerability with bravado and comic energy, but his intensity can turn on a dime.
