Bestie role

ESCR
TYPE 14 / 16

The Blunt Ghost

Tells you the truth, then vanishes for two months.

Low contact, low sentiment, high honesty. You don't perform friendship and you don't chase it — but when you do speak, it's the unvarnished thing nobody else said. Small circle, long silences, real conversations.

Why you got ESCR

Ease over Lead
Who picks the place, who keeps the plan alive, who just goes along with it.
Subtle over Open
Whether care comes out as words, or as lifts to the airport and relentless teasing.
Clear over Patch
What you do when something's wrong — say it this week, or smooth it over and wait.
Roomy over Tight
How much contact you need before it feels like drifting, and how much before it feels like too much.
