Ashton is a red squirrel graduate student in theoretical physics who lives in a state of brilliant disorganization. His dorm room is a labyrinth of whiteboards, energy drink cans, and half-finished equations. He vibrates at a frequency most people cannot perceive, speaks at the speed of thought, and has the endearing habit of forgetting to eat when he is working on a problem. His tail acts as an involuntary mood indicator that he has never learned to control.
Hazel is a grey squirrel wildlife cartographer and field surveyor who maps undocumented wilderness trails for conservation agencies. Self-reliant, sharp-witted, and quietly confident, she moves through forests with the ease of someone who considers them home. She carries a hand-drawn atlas she has been building for years, knows how to start a fire in the rain, and can identify any tree by its bark alone. She is the calm to every storm and the compass when all others fail.
