That feeling when you have a whole complex universe of ocs in your head but you can’t draw or find the motivation to write so they just stay in your maladaptive daydreams 😔

What is Thomas Hewitt's disease?
_____________________________
Here's a question that has been bothering me for way too long. Does anybody actually know what Thomas's disease is? It has been referred to as an unusual/rare disease by multiple people and websites, but there hasn't been a direct answer.
I do know that Thomas has necrosis, that's an obvious answer, but what specific disease is it? It's not exactly skin necrosis (gangrene), it's not an impossible likelihood since it is possible, but it is a rare and highly morbid neonatal condition with significant mortality.
Malacia, perhaps? It has been mentioned that Thomas was diagnosed with neurodegeneration at the age of twelve, but that dosen’t sound right either since it only affects the brain.
I thought of subcutaneous fat necrosis (SCFN) since it may take months to years for fat necrosis to complete its cycle and break down in a body. Newborns can get it as a rare case because they are being delivered under traumatic conditions. However, keep in mind that it is said to be harmless and usually goes away on its own. And if it bothers someone too much, then it could get removed by doing biopsy.
There's so many possibilities, and I'm not a professional, if anybody has any slightest idea. Please tell me in the comments, cause this is a difficult one.

I think I figured out Thomas Hewitt's disease

I just realised something, Thomas might have lupus (SLE). This isn't confirmed, nor do I believe that Thomas's disease is actually real. However, it's good to think of the idea that it was actually inspired by something or at least make sense.
The majority of lupus patients experience skin issues, including blisters or rashes. Sometimes, lupus simply affects the skin, while other times, it affects other bodily parts as well. Cutaneous lupus refers to skin issues that are unique to lupus patients. Three primary categories exist:
Chronic cutaneous lupus (also called discoid lupus) causes round, disc-shaped sores, usually on the face and scalp. The sores can cause scars or changes in skin color.
Subacute cutaneous lupus causes a red scaly rash or red ring-shaped sores. It usually happens on skin that gets sunlight, like the neck and arms.
Acute cutaneous lupus causes a butterfly-shaped rash on the cheeks and nose that looks like a sunburn (called malar rash). Sometimes it affects other body parts, like the arms and legs.
Other skin-related issues that people with lupus may experience include: Loss of hair Calcinosis: calcium accumulation resulting in hard, white lumps beneath the skin Mucosal ulcers (mouth, nose, or vaginal sores) Blood or visible blood vessels on the skin can also be problematic for those with lupus. Here are several examples: Raynaud's illness, which causes numbness and white or blue fingers and toes in response to stress or cold Livedo reticularis is a purple or blue pattern that appears through the skin and resembles fishnet stockings or lace. Palmar erythema (redness in the palms of the hands) Petechiae are little red patches on the skin that are brought on by thrombocytopenia, or reduced platelets in the blood.
A good thing to mention is that lupus skin problems are not contagious. You can’t catch them or give them to someone else. It only occurs when you'r body's immune system attacks its/your own tissue and organs. The thing about lupus is that it creates a slouth of unexpected symptoms. It can take a while for it to be diagnosed, and once you have done that, it can be incredibly stressful. Lupus is like a disease that can really flare up, physically and even psychological causes can cause lupus to flare up.
So here comes the question that people are first thinking about: Is it cureable? Unfortunately, lupus has no cure, but medicines and lifestyle changes can help treat and manage it.
See a physician on a regular basis. Seeing a doctor on a frequent basis rather than only when your symptoms get worse may help your doctor avoid flare-ups and address common health issues like stress, nutrition, and exercise that can help prevent complications from lupus. Be astute. Wear protective clothes, such as a hat, long-sleeved shirt, and long pants, and apply sunscreen with an SPF of at least 55 whenever you go outside because UV light might provoke a flare. Engage in frequent physical activity. Exercise helps lower a person's chance of heart attack, maintains strong bones, and improves your general health.
Avoid smoking. Smoking can exacerbate the effects of lupus on your heart and blood vessels and raise your risk of cardiovascular illness. Consume a nutritious diet. Whole grains, fruits, and vegetables are the main components of a nutritious diet. One may occasionally be subject to dietary limitations, particularly if you suffer from kidney impairment, high blood pressure, or gastrointestinal issues. Find out from a doctor if you require calcium and vitamin D supplements. Supplementing with vitamin D may help persons with lupus, according to some studies. To maintain healthy bones, you can take a calcium supplement to help you reach the 1,000–1,200 mg daily dietary intake, depending on your age.
Now, I'm not a professional. All I have done is going through multiple sites for research purposes in order to figure this mystery out. If you don't agree with me, that's totally fine. I want to know your opinions and own theories/takes on it cause I don't think there's ever going to be a clear answer. Not unless the original directors or any actor from the remakes states it to us.
he can literally do no wrong
Still not over the fuckin. headtilt he does near the end of part 2.
LIKE ARGH. STOP STARING AT ME WITH EM BIG OL EYE!!!! Looking all innocent like he didnt just kill like. 9 people 😭😭
Thomas didn’t just kill his boss for firing him. That job was all he thought his life was worth. He was rejected from the army in the beginning of the movie if i’m remembering correctly, and he started working at 12. That job was his entire life, and the only time anyone had ever told him he was useful.
We can also see this in the way he composes himself. In The Beginning, he’s a lot more physically put together. His clothes are still filthy but it’s nothing compared to 2003, where his clothes are literally black with grime and ripped all over. He’s also much quieter in the Beginning, but in the 2003 movie, it’s like he’s lost all sense of normalcy and just embraced absolute insanity because that’s all he can do.
Now, he sees killing people as his only purpose, just like he saw the butcher job as his only purpose before. Because that’s all he is treated as, a weapon or a tool. He is never treated like a person, not even by his own family. And so he doesn’t see himself as a person. He stops trying to even act like a person.
He literally became the monster everyone told him he was.
I’m giggling and kicking my feet at this alternate universe dude I’m not okay
Halfway through episode 7… I revoke my statement
Omfg Jayce when I catch you
I’ve never posted before but I saw this post and just had to say it-
I believe the very prominent difference between Thomas in the 2006 movie compared to the 2003 movie was written SO well.
He is physically and mentally rotting. His nose has completely rotted off of his face, and idk if anyone else noticed this but he’s wearing the exact same clothes as the 2006 movie, and they don’t appear to have been washed (which means that’s almost 4 years of blood and gore buildup 🤢).
As for his mental state, in the prequel he is completely silent, very shy and reserved. And 4 years later, he’s very vocal, he has a lot of personality, he’s so much crueler and more dedicated to his work. I believe this could either be due to his mental condition (mental deterioration) or the sheer amount of trauma he has, from both his childhood, the bullying and isolation, and in adulthood, the constant murder and violence. That has to change a person drastically. Or both. And the fact that that’s reflected on his appearance is a great plot point in my opinion.
Ik no one will see this but had to say my piece lol
Is it just me or does maskless Tommy in tcm 2003 just. Not look like Tommy.
Here, walk with me.
Here we have Thomas. Beautiful Thomas. Long wavy hair, thick arms, wide chest, comfy, pillow-perfect tummy, intense, soul shaking eyes, drop dead gorgeous--
I digress. He's the man we all know and love.
This. Does not look like Thomas. Not really. Not compared to some of the art interpretations I've seen. It just doesn't fit. Something doesn't add up.
Even if you cover the lower part of his face it just doesn't look like him. The eyes just don't really add up.
And I thought I had other picture with a different angle, but apparently I didn't save it. But if you rewatch this scene they committed a crime on this man's hairline. God awful lies.
Idk the artists handles so I won't add some of the art I have saved of him maskless, but if you just look it up you'll see what I mean.
This just doesn't look like Tommy!!!!
