Spritely and eager to give advice (even if it's a bit harsh at times), Thomas is the one to go to if you're ever unsure. He talks faster than he thinks, so sugarcoating isn't quite something that he considers a whole ton--he's your best critic, but worst ego boost. Otherwise, he's a people-pleaser and a great conversationalist, finding it easy to make friends, even if he's not really looking for any more. He's always ready to share his thoughts, and will try in the nicest way possible, he swears!

Main relationships:
- Bruno : Thomas' new boyfriend, so they try to keep their relationship on the down-low. Well, as much as they can with Bruno visiting the shop almost every other day.. and with Thomas always helping Bruno pick up trash.. and with them being strikingly obvious with PDA.. they really do try, anyway.
- Diego : Thomas' stuck-up brother, who thinks he's so much better than Tom just because he gets to wear a suit to his workplace in the big city. Whup-te-doo.
- Ivan : Someone who took quickly to Thomas as soon as they moved here. He was taken off-guard, for sure, but isn't one to say no to someone just trying to find their way. Marcus was a bit of a hurdle, though.
- Alyssa: Thomas' other good friend, who he hasn't known for too long, but they quickly learnt that they have an awful lot in common. They go to watch trials a lot together with snacks.
- Marcus : Ivan's older brother, who Thomas is honestly pretty damn scared of. That's a whole lotta person, and they know it! Thomas still keeps friendly with Ivan, hanging out with him every so often, but he's always sure to be wary of the kid's brother ever lurking about.
- Teresa : A bad influence! He knows he shouldn't sneak off work to chat and have a vape, but.. with the stress of customers, a break's gotta be in order at least a few times a shift, right? Plus, she's Bruno's best friend, so it'd be rude to say no..
Extra info:
- He has ADHD and is dyslexic.
- He's the manager of Chow's Modo Home branch: the interior decorating shop. He honestly loves his job, and is very good at what he does.
- He micro-manages a ton. If he decides your vibe doesn't fit what you've brought to the counter, he will offer you some sound advice through bright smiles and over-gesticulation.
- He owns a few hampers; Bruno compares Tom to them a lot. Tom doesn't quite know why or how, but accepts his fate.
- As mentioned, he likes to help Bruno whenever he picks up trash along the beach, and is almost always bought an iced tea or hot chocolate afterwards.
- His love language is old board and card games, and 70's/80's music. At first, Bruno couldn't stand it, but all three are now his guilty pleasures.
- Thomas is a self-admitted complete pushover when he's in any mood that's not a cocky one. Those close to him can confirm this.
