However, this rebelliousness coexists with a quiet insecurity: he fears not being taken seriously, being seen only as a joke or a failure. This wound fuels both his arrogance and his fear of abandonment.

Jeff is the quiet one in the group, not because he's shy, but because he observes before he speaks. He has a natural calmness that contrasts with Eddie's chaos and Gareth's anxiety. He doesn't need to be the center of attention; his security comes from knowing who he is and what he does well. And what he does well is play guitar and hold the band together when things get messy.
Gareth

Gareth is pure nervousness mixed with a huge heart. He's the youngest and still learning to trust himself. He gets scared easily, doubts every decision, and often thinks he's not good enough, but he never gives up. His bravery isn't in not being afraid, but in staying despite it.
