Please, can you do a part two of what @Thewolffairytaler asked for about Thomas's eyes? Like the victim just starts to plead with Thomas about not hurting her, she's not desperately pleading, but she's at a point where she is on her knees as she is gently holding his left hand and is just pleading. Maybe even kissing his knuckles as her eyes tears up a bit. She's not scared of Thomas exactly, but she is scared of the idea that he will hurt her. Please? PLEASE? đ„ș
Yes of course! | Pt.1

"There you go...attaboy, Tommy. Finish the job like you always do."Â
Hoyt knew his way around manipulation, around temptation. He knew the familyâs hunger would worsen with even the smallest decrease in food. Theyâd been hungry before, - starving, famished; They would never go hungry again.Â
Tommy..his name was Tommy - No, Thomas. You could use that, right? Say a few sweet words, kiss and grab at him. Just gotta get the chainsaw out of his hands first.
âWell, what the hell are you waiting for? Crank it up! Show that bitch what happens when you fuck around and stay long enough to find out.â
Hoyt was getting impatient. What the hell was he (Thomas) thinking? Putting the family in such danger all for a piece of tail - Selfish. At Least when he (Hoyt) did it, they were tied down..nothing could get in the way of the family.Â
Thomas was conflicted - On one hand, he had this gorgeous girl cooing in his ears about his eyes. It felt so good to be wanted. But did she really want him? Did she mean it? She couldn't've..
He revved the chainsaw a final time, the loud buzzing of the blade crowding the room.Â
âHell yeah, Tommy. Show âer how itâs done.â Hoyt chuckled as he turned his heel to walk back up the stairs - He had..âbusinessâ to attend to; Which in your case, heightened your chances of survival.Â
âWait wait wait wait wait - No, no, no, no, no, please..we could work this out, couldnât we? Please?âÂ
Thomas shook his head - Sheâs not worth it, Thomas - He thought to himself. Finish the job..
With drying tears painting your cheeks, you shakily held your hands out and shook your head lightly. âTommy, please.â
That rewired something in him. The way you said it - God had sent a succubus, hadn't he? A final challenge to prove his strength. Mama had always told him sex before marriage was a sin. Women who opened their legs for any man on the street, even if it was to save their lives, had failed their family, their future husbands, God, and most importantly, themselves. âThey canât be saved,â sheâd tell him. She never used the word âwhoreâ but his uncles did. He knew thatâs what mama meant. She would've called you one if she saw what was going on down here..One less whore - he thought.Â
âTommy, Iâm so sorry..â You whined as you knelt down. âWe can work this out - You and me. I wonât hurt you, I ainât gonna run away.â You didnât even convince yourself that it was working. What were you doing? Helplessly pleading with a backwoods serial killer? It wasnât gonna workâŠ
Surprisingly, it did. Luckily for you, you ended up in the basement of a family with a very..protective yet starved and desperate guard dog. The chainsaw had stopped, though hesitantly. Thomas was looking at you with glazed-over eyes. He was in another word - most likely his own head, trying to rationalize his decision to spare you. You took the opportunity to carefully coax his hand into yours as you peppered kisses on his bruised and bloodied knuckles. That mustâve snapped him out of it - He jerked a bit as he looked down. He didnât mind this angle: You looking up at him with teary eyes and shaky breath - He could get used to this.Â
Get your head in the game, Thomas! - He could hear Hoytâs figurative voice screaming at him from the back of his mind. It didnât matter - Heâd keep you. Safely. Whether in the backroom of the basement or in the shed, anywhere that his uncles couldnât get to you. Heâd sneak you food, bring you water in dirtied glass, bring in some of his old clothes for you to wear, and a pillow hidden somewhere in the guest room. Heâd keep you safe - Just as long as you kept spoiling him with sweet words and soft kisses.

As always, if you have more requests, questions, or I misinterpreted an ask, please let me know!
am I geeking twin
Hi Tae, I was wondering if you could tell us how Thomas would react if a victim (reader) who's cornored or meets him for the first time stare into his eyes for a moment, taking all the details in, to then tell him that he has beautiful eyes. It dosenât matter if he looks at then angrily or with a dark gaze. They still thinks they are beautiful. Like a gem or the sky on a sunny day.
I figured you could answer this easily since you know the Hewitt family so well and it's pretty much an easy question.
oooo I love this!!
I think he'd be very confused and taken back which would cause him to pause for a bit - He's in his own head a lot. This gives the victim more time to escape but as soon as you move he's right back in the game. (Or..with a little "family motivation")
__
"You're beautiful." You don't know why you said it - Why you felt it. All you knew was that it's true: He was beautiful, at least to you.
The cannibal paused. Beautiful? Such words were never used to describe him, not even once. The most praise he'd gotten was on his work ethic, never on his appearance.
His expression tightened, what was left of his nose wrinkled, his eyes squinted as his eyebrows closed in. It doesn't make sense - You're lying. You were just trying to catch him off guard, break down his walls; Escape.
Don't be tempted, son. These women are something else.
That's what Charlie had told him one time - Back in what were supposed to be his high school years. There were always pretty girls with infectious smiles and loud laughs that made him turn his head. He liked the way their hair was done, how creative they could be in accessorizing. He liked their lips and the way they framed their smiles. The fantasy would break as soon as they saw him. He'd be staring at them, distracted from his work at the slaughterhouse or at the community center his momma worked at. The girls would stiffen - They were disgusted with him. Afraid.
Why're you staring? - Can I help you?
He didn't have the tools to answer those questions. His answer wouldn't make anything better; In fact, it'd make it worse. They weren't asking out of genuine curiosity, they wanted to deter him. His freakish nature and abnormal behavior. Momma taught him not to stare, but, why could they stare? No one told them not to, he was a macabre one, that's for sure.
In a matter of seconds, his head replayed the compliment you gave to him. Beautiful. He was beautiful.
It felt good. Odd, peculiar, abnormal, but so damn good.
Say it again. Just one more time; Please?
Of course, he couldn't say that. He didn't say that. And he didn't want to.
Thomas restarted the chainsaw, revving it loud enough to drown out his irrational thinking. You didn't mean it. You couldn't have.
You jolted back, frightened, but yet, still determined.
"Beautiful, beautiful eyes." You whispered shakily.
He threw the chainsaw to the ground, frustrated and confused. If you didn't mean it, stop fucking saying it!
"What's taking so damn long down there!" A voice called out from upstairs. "Tommy, stop stallin' and cut her up already!"
Hoyt stomped down the stairs, his eyes meeting the corner you were trapped in. "Oh, Christ, Thomas. Get a grip on yourself."
"What? Did she butter you up all nice and sweet, huh?" Hoyt called out condescendingly. He didn't view Thomas as "ugly" necessarily, but Hoyt knew a thing or two about survival. Never let your guard down. Ever.
Tommy looked between the two of you, frustrated, confused, overwhelmed. He wasn't teary-eyed but he was damn close. Still, his anger shadowed his confusion as he picked up the chainsaw once more, starting it up as the two of you locked eyes.
"There you go...attaboy, Tommy. Finish the job like you always do."

Sorry this is kinda short. I was in the mood for a mini oneshot lol
As always, if you have more requests, questions, or I misinterpreted an ask, please let me know!
Thomas butchering the shit out of someone who hit on you because he's insecure and extremely afraid of you leaving him :)
You end up with a poorly written note with the shittiest hand writing ever that reads:
"I'm sorry I got upset. I love you."
But it's more like
"sory i was upset i lov you" spelling errors and all đ«
Just know, dinner was less of a steak and more of a...pulled "pork" from how excessive Thomas' chopping was. Luda Mae wasn't too thrilled, but she's not one to waste, is she?
"Tommy took good care of 'em, God bless the next poor soul that takes his chances, hm?" - Hoyt, probably
@lovinqbella I do, in fact, know what you mean xđ«
if I misinterpreted this prompt please let me know! I'll make another post đ
The community center was never too crowded - Only filled with cyclists and the occasional "roadtrip gone wrong" group. In had been a few months since your wedding, a casual southern Christian affair with a nice Hewitt twist; Mama had given you her previous wedding ring, and it fit you quite nicely. A silver, dainty wedding band with an almost non-existent jewel sculpted in the middle. You wore it religiously - A symbol of your commitment and pride in your relationship with Thomas.
You heard the bell attached to the doorframe ring, lifting your head to attend to the visitor - Another cyclist...great.
You quietly sighed and put on your best "costumer-service" act.
"You need anything?"
The man turned, his features dirtied from sweat, dust, and grime.
"Nothing you can help me with, hun."
He grabbed a beer off one of the shelves, placing it on the counter and leaned on his elbows. "W'you mind grabbing me one of those Marlboro Reds, sweetheart?" - "Thank you, honey."
"Ma'am."
You both turned, Luda Mae had been smoking in the corner.
"You refer to her as 'Ma'am', understood?"
"Yes..yes ma'am." He said sheepishly. He turned back to you, scoffing slightly as he payed for his things.
Leaning closer, he said "Y'know, if you ever need a ride somewhere, or..something extra that I'm sure you can't find out here, give me a call; Huh, hun?" He quickly jotted down his number on his receipt and slid it back to you.
You watched him leave as you turned to Mama, she had the same look on her face as she did the last time someone came in here. It's safe to say, you'd see him again, but not in the way he'd hoped.
Charlie pulled his ass over y'all and Thomas had fun chopping his ass up, yurd
Reversed possession. Forgot about Thomas being possessive or have some yandere tendencies. What if a fem presenting Y/n was in love with Thomas. And would despise any non family women being close to him or try to manipulate him, hence why they're tend to get rid of the issue without permission. And if Hoyt or mama tried to tell him that Y/n is dangerous and not good for him, she'd convince him otherwise.
oooo this is fun!!đ«
I'm so sorry this took a while to finish up!!
Thomas would have the biggest trust issues EVER - Who does he trust: The person he's in love with, or his family? His family...right?
"I'm telling ya, she's good for nothin', Tommy."
"That woman'll eat you alive - and not in the good way."
"I don't like her. Not one bit, Thomas."
"I've been with a lot of chics in my life, Tommy-boy (lie). I'm telling ya, she ain't no good."
Hoyt is genuinely concerned for Thomas. He's seen how you look at the family, how you coo and 'seduce' Thomas into trusting you. He's seen just how manipulative people can be, he's a manipulative guy himself - And he knows just how desperate Thomas can get in terms of love.
Luda Mae/Mama is SO worried - And especially annoyed. She doesn't like you - "not one bit." She tries to convince Thomas that you're good for nothing, you're a "snake", artificial, whatever she can to get Thomas away from you. She's even pretended to have "run out of food" to convince Thomas "she may be the only 'food' we've got for a while.."
Of course, Thomas refused with a sharp shake of his head..though he was hesitant on both sides
__
Or..does he choose you?
"Tommy, they're lying. Lying about everything."
"I need you, don't you need me?"
"No one's gonna love you like I can, baby. I can promise you that."
*Referring to a previous "conversation" with Charlie* "Don't you know how manipulative that sounds? They're trying to manipulate you, Tommy - Keep us apart. You don't want that, do you?"
One simple "I love you" paired with pleading eyes..He's done for. Thomas can't really resist that..at least not anymore.
As soon as Thomas puts his foot down with you, the act begins to falter.
I just keep imagining that one scene in Pearl when the projectionist tries to leave and Pearl goes batshit crazy:
"Did I do something wrong?" - "Why'd you just go cold on me?" - "What did I do wrong?"
"I don't understand, I thought you liked me.." - "Why did you change?" - "You're not leaving me here."
__
Tommy is...well, he's Tommy. In the end, he's extremely family-oriented. And unfortunately for you..Charlie Hoyt's got him wrapped around his trigger finger.
Thomas loves you, he stays with you, but Hoyt makes sure to keep you in line. AKA, he never tolerates disrespect to the family. You're always being starred-down at dinner {by most of the family}. He gives you more chores, takes less precaution when dealing with "guests" around you {he'll happily get violent and gory around you, this is the life you signed up for, is it not?}, and still continues to talk with Thomas about your..behavior.
Mama still doesn't like you - That'll likely never change if you continue with such behaviors. But, you're family..as reluctant as she is to admit it.
Honestly - You fit right in with the family: Possessive, violent?, manipulative; You're the whole Hewitt package! It'll just give them time to realize that :)
hello, I was wondering if you could do a Thomas Hewitt x reader that has two kids. Both being under 10. Like how feels about it and the whole family. You can do wild and do whatever you want for this. I love your writing so much! I hope you have a good day and make sure to take care of yourself. Thank you if you do this.
Hi!!! I'm so sorry this took a while to get to - I've been busy with life things đ Enjoy Tommy + the family with his two precious angels
Also ty ty!!!!
I feel like Hoyt call Tommy's kids his "little buddies"...no idea why lmao
_____
The day he saw his children was the day Thomas was 'reborn.' He had a purpose outside of killing, outside of his uncle. He had you. He had your children. His own little *or not so little* family - Two mini-me's, what could go wrong?
A lot.
Thomas can get a bit overwhelmed when his uncles are yelling at him, or you, to "shut those kids up" - It reminds him of his childhood...not fun times.
Thomas worries quite a bit. About what, you ask? EverythingâŠ
What if theyâre ostracized? What if theyâll suffer just as he does? What if he isnât a good father? A good husband? Are they going to be okay? Safe? Are you going to be okay?
If he could, he'd be praising his babies to hell and back - He loves them so so much. If they happen to have the same skin condition as he does, or the same cleft-lip, you'll find him crying just thinking about their future. He really doesn't want them to hurt like he did. Like he does. He'll pray to the Lord above to keep them safe.
Tommy has chubby babies - Doesn't matter what size his partner is, the babies are FAT !! Tall kids, too. Chunky mini-me's with curly dark hair and freckles - Maybe a cleft lip??
He loves his babies very much - a very VERY protective and slightly overbearing dad {he just wants whatâs best}Â
Heâd probably wrestle with them if he was in the mood. He'll go easy on them, don't worry :)
Would NEVER let them in the basement. Ever. Do you know how dangerous it is down there? Not to mention how traumatizing it could beâŠ
Always always ALWAYS willing to help. He knows you're tired, and he's willing to do anything to help relieve some stress for both you and the family. He's surprisingly good with bedtimes, too. Although he can't read to his kids, he gives really good hugs before bed.
Totally would sew clothing and toys for his babies - They're a bit patchy and disheveled, but that's the aesthetic of this family, let's be real.
â
Luda Mae loves her grandkids, donât get me wrong, but lord, does that woman need a break. Two kids under the age of 10 PLUS Jedidiah? Uh-uh. Nada. No.Â
"Go outside and play with the dogs, you're messing up the kitchen!" Type shit
trust me when I say she will happily discipline them if you or Thomas donât feel like it lmao
Definitely the type to baby-talk them even when they get older, yet at the same time increase their responsibilities lol
She's always there to support them - Showering her grand babies with compliments {except Jedidiah...poor guy}
â
Jedidiah will âbabysitâ sometimes. AKA, play dates! hoorayâŠ
Heâll ask to hold them {heâs kinda hesitant though}, draw with them, draw portraits of them {though poorlyâŠheâs trying}, teach them about baseball {because I think heâs into that canonically? I donât remember}
He loves hisâŠcousins? Siblings? Depends on who you ask, I guess....?
â
Monty does not care. At all.Â
âWill someone shut that baby up?â *he mutters under his breathÂ
âWill you cut out that racket?!âÂ
Would probably keep his dog away from the kids..for good reason {That thing bites}
Pouty faces and eye rolls all the time lol. Donât be surprised if the kids end up with his attitude at timesÂ
âUgly little thingsâŠâ
He has love for themâŠ.somewhere. Deep downâŠ..very deep down.
â
Hoyt, as we saw in TCM 2003, doesnât mind kids - let alone babies. At least not when heâs âworking.â
He'll coo at them - "You look just like your daddy, don'tcha? Huh?" - He's the type of uncle who's always asking/assuring that "he's the favorite"....okay buddy
Would make minor jokes about Thomas "finally getting laid" and "getting a family of his own." In all actuality Hoyt Charlie is proud of him. Jealous to bits, but proud - and happy.
_____
Yay okay! We've reached the end. Sorry if it's a bit short, my brain is still trying to get back into Tumblr-writing lol
what do you think reader x Thomas's wedding would actually be like if it would be a small Christian wedding with the family or smth like that and also if you could do a small oneshot or smth if maybe reader being hit on working in the gas station and if luda mae is there ifyk what I mean ty x
<3
omg I love thisssssss !! I'm gonna write + post the oneshot on another post, don't worry! I'll tag you in it <3

I think the wedding planning would really be in Luda Mae's hands - She's always been one to take charge. Her idea of the 'ideal wedding' is much different than Thomas' idea of the 'ideal wedding'. Luda wants a traditional, in-church wedding with classic, elegant attire {that can be found in a small town}. Thomas, on the other hand, prefers to draw as little attention as possible to both himself and the family. He wouldn't care if it was just the two of you exchanging rings and calling it a day - As long as you two were together {and blessed by The Lord - cue Thomas' religious upbringing and generational trauma}.
If the town was still alive at the time of your matrimony, it would most likely be held in a church {as required requested by Luda Mae}, with all the family {and potentially friends of the family}. I do, however, think it would be difficult to obtain considering the majority of the town find the Hewitts to be...a bit odd.
If the town has already died down, the wedding would be held on the {Hewitt} property - With Charlie Hoyt as the 'priest' {because of course he'd be}.
I also have this little headcanon-ish thing that Jedidiah {if you keep him in the fantasy} would be the ring-bearer {and he'd be very pleased to do so!}
Hoyt would definitely crack some jokes in-between lines, with multiple side-eyes and sighs from Luda Mae {Monty would try to hide his chuckling, though, he's not very good at it}.
-
Thomas would pick you a {disheveled} bouquet of wildflowers - Mostly bluebonnets and white yarrows. Overall, he loves you. He doesn't matter if the wedding was simple and secluded {he'd prefer it that way} - As long as the two of you are happy and blessed by the Lord.
{Thomas has very deep religious/generational trauma. He's been taught to believe that an unholy/non-traditional marriage isn't going to last.}
I hope this was coherent enough! If you need any further clarification, or another ask, just comment or message me!đ«
broke this chapter into two parts BECAUSE it has a bit of a tone switch :)
pt.1 is definitely a 'transition' if you will, so it's much shorter
pt.2 is the real stuff
Akrasia
_____
You knew you had to leave this town. There really was nothing left for you - or anyone - here. Most of the sheriffâs department left, just as most of the residents - Leaving infrastructure abandoned and empty. You agreed to stay a little longer, for Thomasâ sake. In return, youâd been invited to dinner - Which laid in front of you. You, amongst the family, sat at the lace-draped table, the only consistent sound being the scraping of utensils against the aged porcelain. Luda Mae, sitting at the left side of the table, broke the minor silence:
âWeâre so glad you could join us tonight, dear. It means a lot that youâre staying, âspecially to Thomas.âÂ
Thomas blushed a bit in response, he never liked being placed in vulnerable positions. You attempted to smile, âItâs the least I could do.â You really tried to sound convincing, but from Charlieâs reaction, you werenât the best at pretending..
âSo, you planning on staying for long?âÂ
âAs long as I can.âÂ
âYouâre not a good liar, honey.âÂ
You pushed the contents of your broth around, not making eye contact with anyone. You could feel Charlieâs complacent grin growing the more he stared at you.Â
âThereâs no reason in lying, hun. You donât want to stay here.âÂ
It was true, you didnât. Everything had dried up - And you, you were parched. Continuing to distract yourself with dinner, you felt yourself get more and more aggravated as the interrogation resumed. Thomas was unusually stiff, staring down at his food just as you were. He really didnât want you to leave - Heâd never admit it, but he loved you; And hearing about you leaving just made that repressed feeling rouse.Â
âCharlie, leave the poor child alone. I will not have you riling each other up at this table.âÂ
Charlie rolled his eyes, mumbling a small âyes mama..â before returning to his food.
Just avoid him - heâs not worth it; You thought to yourself. Charlie really did like riling people up, though, he really was just afraid of being left out. You two never really got along - He was all âtough love.â An intimidating kind of guy who was always judging, even if he didnât mean it. You were sure there was love in his heart, maybe not for you, but most definitely for his family. You saw the way he looked at his mama - Full of respect with hints of defiance.Â
Dinner continued in inconsistent silence - Luda Mae would start up conversations only for them to end just as fast. You tried producing thoughtful responses, putting in more effort than the dispassionate grunts coming from the rest of the table. Monty never really enjoyed âmeaninglessâ conversation, his main focus was to get dinner over with so he could return to the living room - Wasting another day with his legs rotting into the cushion of the reclining chair.Â
---
When dinner concluded, the table cleared, and the family members resigned to their usual evening routines, you thanked the Hewitts and packed the little things you brought with you - Parting ways as you left for the doorway. Just before you reached the final step of the porch, the front screen doors swung open.
âDear,â Luda Mae, of course, stopped you. You turned around, a small âhm?â fell from your lips.Â
âWe really do appreciate your company. Youâre always welcome to stay - Even if itâs just for the night.âÂ
Just for the night.
_____
this was requested, but also something I often thinking about đ«
this took so long for me to post omfgggg
TW: Body Image Issues, Hoyt/Monty {how fun}, Implied Physical-Intimacy {though not explicitly said}, Tommy is a sweetheart <3
Tommy loves his sweetheart very very much {obviously}
_____
First of all: He's a big guy himself, so I doubt he'd mind {if not prefer} a bigger partner. The majority of the women in his life are plus/midsized {his momma, tea lady.} Essentially, the women with the most maternal influence {in his life} are plus/midsize :)
No one in the family would mind - Contrary to popular belief, I don't think Hoyt or Monty would say anything {hateful}; Considering their sister{s} have some more weight to them.
Now, that doesn't mean they won't comment other things..
One benefit{?} about your size {in the way the family views it}, they don't view you as 'frail', physically. That means more work, less physical restrictions. This also means Thomas is willing to get a bit rough with you {in many ways}.
He doesn't care how heavy you are, he's gonna carry you at least once. He'll help you up {if you need it}, carry you places, carry your things, anything that can show off his strength, really.
He doesn't want you to lose weight for image-related purposes. If you want to lose weight for health purposes, he's fully supportive of that {he wants you to bet as healthy as you can}. He finds your body to be empyrean - Something delicate that should be preserved, protected. If you did end up losing weight {or discussing it} for image purposes, he'd start becoming a bit self-conscious; What if you want him to lose weight too? Does he need to lose weight?
{He'd also affirm that you never need to alter your appearance, only your health.}
--
{If you're fem-presenting, or happen to wear dresses} Thomas likes seeing you in sundresses, especially ones that accentuate your figure ;) Luda Mae would love this aspect too - She'll bring out dresses from her younger days and have you try them on {she's just trying to bond with you, it reminds her of her youth}. If you like jewelry, she'll bring some of that out, too.
--
Being with someone of similar stature, Thomas would feel more comfortable with himself compared to being with someone skinnier. He knows that being bigger comes with ridicule and societal pressure, especially with clothing and presentation {which he too, struggles with}. This similarly almost provides a subconscious understanding between the two of you - In turn, decreasing his anxieties over his looks {around you}.
Although, he won't automatically show his face to you - Or anyone, for that matter.
--
He'd do this with his partner regardless, but during moments where he's {surprisingly} sappy, he likes to give you gentle, scattered kisses along your face and body - It's his way of showing that he loves youđ«
Expect plenty of nibbles and cuddling to go with it {he's gonna pass out cold on top of you...}
Thomas also likes holding you whenever you both feel comfortable. Even if it's just holding your waist from behind whilst your doing something - Or becoming your bra {he doesn't give a shit if you have breasts or not, he's doing it anyway}
He's seen plenty of bodies, but none of them captivate him quite like yours. He likes soft bodies, ones where he can trace the stretch marks with his finger - Though, he likes tracing bones on thinner bodies as well. Thomas has a loft of stretch marks, most he got during his adolescence - He doesn't mind them much, and seeing yours makes him mind them less. Even if yours aren't too visible, he likes the textural difference against his hands.
--
Overall, Thomas loves having a mid/plus sized S/O. I wouldn't necessarily say he prefers it, but he does like your figure {I headcanon Thomas as someone who likes harmony amongst features over individual features themselves - But he does really really like eyes}. Thomas focuses on personality most !! He likes not having to worry about you as much, but he's fully willing to worry.
To all my {fellow} plus/mid sized creatures, you're empyrean đ«
Please give him hugs n kisses - He needs 'em
Yeah...Thomas has attachment issues lololol
Thomas' possessiveness is really just a progression of his desperation. For example:
Stay with me, I don't want you to leave
Mutates into
You're my possession - Of that, my love, there really is no question
Okay, yeah, I'm using lyrics to get my point across, so what?
Because of his low self-esteem, Thomas gets jealous without realizing it. He's anxious about his potential future with his S/O, with constant worries surrounding abandonment and comparison.
What if you get hurt? What if you push too far, explore too deeply and find something you hate? What if turn to hate him? He can't have that. No, no, no, no, not here; Not now.
You really are his special someone. He's in love with you, his Momma'll make sure to tell you. Thomas' favorite thing is how sweet you are with him; Buttering him up with compliments {all of which you find to be true statements, though he disagrees}, and variations of physical affection. One thing that never fails:
"You're so handsome, Tommy."
Goddd, does it make him blush. He gets all giddy and shy - a bit aroused, depending on the situation.
What if that stops? What if when he finally reveals himself, you run away? You scream and shriek in terror? Is he really that ugly?
What if I make you feel sick?
That's a question he asks himself a lot. You're all he has {outside of the family}, and he plans to keep it that way {excluding potential future children}.
I explored this a bit in a previous post:
'You can't leave. I won't leave you leave - I have nothing. I'll prove to you how good I am - How good I can be, I swear. You can live with us on this farm, just like momma always dreamed of. You're not leaving me; Not after you've met momma, not after the countless times you've saved me from callous assholes out here. No - I couldn't..' -- He had to keep you. Keep you here; In the basement; In the barn; Maybe in a spare bedroom - His bedroom. It didn't matter. You could would not leave.
_____
At the root of his issues, Thomas is a scared, concerned, insecure man who's been starved of proper connection. Healthy, reciprocated emotions that don't burn out when he does something wrong. Once he's found someone worth opening up to, he'll treasured them. After years of believing they'd never meet, here they are.
Are you an angel? Have I been rewarded?
Or has the Devil sending one of his succubi to ravish me down to the rings of Wrath and Ptolemaea?
Although Thomas' thoughts are not as religiously-driven as those above, he often treads in waters of similar questioning:
Do I deserve this? - Am I being tricked? - They'll leave eventually..
--
Overtime, his anxiety turns to desperation - And soon, that desperation turns into jealousy.
Someone could compliment you, and it'd set him off. Especially if it's a man. He's so scared you'll find someone better than him, and he's envious of how easy it is not only for you to interact with people, but how easy it is for them to interact with you. He wants to interact with you so badly! He wants to tell you how beautiful you are, how grateful he is for you {even if you two aren't in a relationship yet}. He wishes he was approachable - Not that he's comfortable with causal conversation, but he wishes it was plausible in his situation.
--
One afternoon, a {soon to be} victim complimented you; 'Called you 'attractive' in whatever fancy way they put it. You scoffed a bit, albeit amused, followed by a small 'thank you.' - Boy, Thomas couldn't've been more peeved. How dare you? After all he's done to make you comfortable? Really, this is how you repay him?
He had to take a minute to himself, realizing how irrational he sounded. How were you supposed to know the sacrifices he made? It's not like he could tell you..though he wishes he could, just so you would be proud of him.
After his anger calmed down, he was left guilty and worrisome - It wasn't anyone's fault. The stranger couldn't have known his feelings for you, and he doubted you're aware either. That being said, that 'charming' victim made a delicious dinner that night ;)
_____
Thomas thought he had his emotions under control, but he was greatly mistaken. Momma had sent you out to grab things from the {wilting} garden just a few minutes prior; You'd gained enough trust from her to be left unsupervised outside - Though, she kept tabs on you though the windows.
Thomas was just finishing up in the basement when he walked up to the main floor; Oddly enough, he was looking for you. One random evening {a day he couldn't quite remember}, he'd overheard you talking to Henrietta about a locket you had once - A dainty one that complimented your skin ethereally. One of the victims, a nice gal from out of town, had a locket similar to the one you described; And he planned on giving it to you.
As he searched around the home, he found no trace of you. His anxiety quickly picked up; What if you'd left? No, Momma wouldn't lose you that easily, you'd have to be somewhere. He made his way outside, carelessly throwing the front screen doors open, albeit a bit aggressive. After a few minutes of pacing, he finally found you in the garden - Just as you were supposed to be.
The knot in his stomach relaxed, just as his shoulders did. There you were: Safe and content. He clutched the locket within his right hand, the chain dangling from his stressed fingers.
Unbeknownst to you, Thomas stood a few feet away, just..staring. His mind raced with incoherent thoughts: Would you like the gift? What if you were confused, or even worse, disgusted? What if the locket wasn't to your liking? He was quickly pulled from his thoughts when you finally noticed him.
"Hi, Thomas." You acknowledged, he really was just some big, awkward hunk, huh? "Did you need something?"
He quickly shook his head, bringing his hand forward. He twisted his wrist so his palm could face upward, revealing the locket.
You wiped some sweat off your forehead with your dirt-covered gloves and stood up. Your knees had gotten a bit dirty, but your pants provided a solid-enough layer between skin and soil.
"Is this for me?" You naively asked. Of course it was for you, he wouldn't just hand something to you that he intended on keeping.
He nodded, slightly nudging his hand closer as if to say 'take it.' - Which you did.
"Might be a bit difficult to put on, the jump ring's a bit small."
Were you..asking him to help? Was that it? He wasn't too sure, but he took the chance anyway. He gently grasped the split chain, folding it cautiously around your neck. He fumbled a lot with the chains..he didn't know how to handle such a small mechanism despite his sewing hobby; But eventually, he connected the jump rings.
You adjusted the locket to your liking, turning to face him with a thankful smile painted amongst your face.
"Thank you, Tommy."
Oh god..there it was. You knew he liked being called 'Tommy', you must've. He felt teased, just a bit. Mostly shy, though. He swallowed and gave a small nod.
Gosh, you were gorgeous, at least he thought so. He wanted so badly to tell you - Just like that piece of shit victim previously had. Okay..they weren't that bad, but he didn't want to acknowledge that. His jealously started to fester again, soon overriding his yearning.
God fucking damnit, why do I have to be so restricted? He thought to himself, an anger bubbling beneath him.
"Are you alright?" You hesitantly asked, tilting your head just a bit.
Was he alright? No, he was not 'alright.' He felt silenced. Restricted in his own body. How hard could it be to tell you how much he liked that locket on you?
His throat strained, trying to make any sensible noise - Yet all that came out were gurgles and incoherent mumbles. He shook his head, obviously overwhelmed and fed up. Instead of straining too hard, he pointed at the necklace and nodded - He really did think you were the most beautiful creature in the word, the locket only amplified that.
"You like it?"
He nodded once more.
"Aw; Well, thank you, Tommy. That's very kind of you."
He nodded a final time, making a mental decision: You were never going to leave him. He'd do anything and everything to make you happy, including small things like this.
That piece of shit nobody couldn't treat you like I could; They'd only make you happy chopped up, seared, and served right at the dinner table.
He'd make sure that would never happen to you. That no one besides him or the family would make you laugh, cry, smile; Not like he could. You two would be one, one way or another - Even in death. He'd make sure of that.

Boo lame boo đ đ đ
I'm not too proud of the one-shot but my brain isn't giving me anything different.
We will, however, get more possessive Tommy as I finished up pt. 2 of Proprietorial đ
Would Thomas appreciate having an affectionate/loving s/o, or would he eventually get annoyed by it?
yes he loves it!! - But give him his space as well đ«
He wants to protect you. To keep you as {spiritually} close to him as possible. He's a bit new to this whole 'romantic affection' thing..so give him grace, please đ
Let me keep you safe - So you too, can care for me.
Thomas is so exceedingly grateful for you - You're the light he didn't know he needed in his life. He cherishes you; Really, he does. Every time you smile at him, every time you offer to do something for him, bring him beverages or gifts, even when you walk past him, he's entranced.
If you're physically affectionate with him, you'll need to wait some time before he's fully ready. He won't reciprocate affection until he's fully accepted that you two are in a relationship. Once he has, however, his affection is small - It's strictly for you.
Examples of his affection:
Holding your hand/head/shoulders/waist
Resting his forehead against yours
Resting his chin on your head
Small kisses {both with and without the mask}
Gifts
Hugs
Soft hums/grunts of affirmation{?}
Softer expressions {Sometimes he'll even smile}
Rubbing your back/shoulders/arms
Examples of affection he likes:
Hugs {when he initiates}
Gifts {minimally}
Small kisses
Holding his hand
Words of affirmation
Compliments
Anything with praise, really {Tommy bleeds and breathes praise}
Even though he adores you, he needs time to himself sometimes. It's important to provide Thomas with a relationship that allows personal time - For example; When he's in the basement, he's either working or trying to relax. In situations like these, knocking, calling out, or walking down to ask if he's alright/if he needs time alone would be the most beneficial.

Do you think if say you self insert yourself into tcm 2006 maybye reader actually looking after Tommy he woud not loose his nose etc like if reader was there to look after Tommy tcm 2003 would go diffrent and her readers role would most likely be in most films, as she got captured before Chrissies group idk if this is too similar to what y wrote b4
Hi !! I hope I understood this right - If I didn't, please let me knowđ«
TW: Self-harm, mental breakdowns, cannibalism, murder, TCM-Canon-Related Topics This isn't spell/grammar checked lol
First of all, I think Thomas would have a different outcome with his nose. Hear me out - If he had someone who not only encouraged, but actively took place in caring for his health, he'd have wayyy less of a chance to develop a deadly infection, or necrosis.
Continuing on that note; He'd take way better care of himself!! With positive feedback, productive routines, and someone to bond with, his mental health would begin to regenerate. He'd actually look forward to coming home from the slaughterhouse instead of dreading it.
..Pack him a lunch, please {and add a note :)}
--
Following the closing of the slaughterhouse, you'll need to be very, very patient with Thomas. He just lost his job, his purpose, and the main source of income for the family. PLUS the family just incorporated cannibalism/murder - which is no easy task.
Give him his space whilst providing opportunities to vent out his frustrations and anxieties. This really is the part where you either make or break your relationship {by 'you' I mean the reader as well as Thomas.} You two will need to care for each other more than ever in this time of need, and continuing this as the years progress.
--
If we follow the events of the 2003 remake's timeline, Thomas gets more manic and less restricted with his movements and overall presentation. Could this have been prevented? I'm not sure. Stalled, maybe, but this definitely seems like the result of multiple stressful events eating away at a man with little support or emotional regulation skills.
It would take a lot for someone to prevent this, but even then, one of you is gonna lose it. Taking care of someone with as much detail that would be needed in this situation would result in you going mad. You lose yourself, which is exactly what happened to Thomas.
That being said, he hasn't lost himself completely. When it's just the family, he's okay - When it's just the two of you, he's even better. Much calmer, relaxed, and open.
I envision Thomas having mental breakdowns every few months, maybe even more. During these breakdowns, it gets bad.
He's destructive, hysterical, and unpredictable. Tons more vocal, by that I mean lots more grunts, yelling, crying out. It's a lot of pent up anger and repressed emotions that not even he knew he had. Once he comes down, he'll be even worse {to himself}. Thomas feels terrible afterward; Guilty and extremely overstimulated which leads to lots of overflowing, hysterical crying and tendencies of self-harm {probably lots of hitting his head with his fist, though not punching}.
Essentially lots of this:
Sorry, I know this section sounds a lot like Bubba {Sawyer}...oops
When he's experiencing breakdowns like this, he needs space whilst also being 'supervised.' By supervised I mean making sure he's not being extremely destructive of other people OR himself {especially}. Don't worry about the items, worry about him. Thomas is never violent to the family {including you} during these episodes, but he most definitely is to the victims.
He just needs something simple, nothing too demanding or overstimulating - Even if it's just you sitting with him and assuring him no one's upset, that's enough for him to start coming down. He might need some rest after this :(
--
Other potential changes {in his outcome}:
He'd wear masks less {around family}
His creativity would flourish earlier-on
Thomas would have an easier time adjusting to the cannibalistic lifestyle {if you were there to suffer through it beside him}
His confidence would grow :)
His emotional regulation skills would strengthen

Im never gonna leave you, baby - Even if you lose what's left of your mind
I've been thinking about this for a while because I haven't actually seen or read any Thomas Hewitt x reader fanfic where the main character is a meek/shy individual with an emotional nature. By that, I mean somebody who is timid, not self-assured, soft-spoken, gentle, pacifistic, and often afraid to speak up for himself/herself. Not to mention that if being mocked or bullied, will start to tear up a bit and become more secluded.
Every time I read about Y/n, they are always this Mary Sue like temple who still ends up with odd or disrespectful issues. Like there's too many of them. Get rid of them! Bring me something new! Because I have no idea what the Hewitt's would do with that sort of person. Especially if it was a female instead of a male. What would Thomas and the family do with such a person? In theory, it seems obvious, but I genuinely don't know.
Hi again! I broke this up into headcanons as well as a little one shot - Hope that's okay!

Thomas is a shy individual himself - Knowing this, I doubt he'd have an issue with any aspect of your nature. He'd actually be more protective of you than of someone who's much more..vocal about their displeasure.
Thomas doesn't mind the timidness, he's fully willing to be the 'strong' one in the relationship..he's kinda been forced into the roll within his family.
Charlie will tease you. A lot. He knows what gets on your nerves, how to pry under your skin - What makes you tick, cry, and breakdown; It's a favorite pastime of his, that is, when you're still a 'guest' captive.
He'll bring up traumatizing moments, taunting you with the possibility of 'ending up like the rest.' Hoyt pulls strings not even you knew were there:
"One word, and you'll end up splattered 'cross this damn wall."
{If you're fem-presenting} "Momma only likes you 'cause you're a girl, Once she see's how much of a harlot you are, she'll throw you right on out."
Once he's gotten used to you {or you've proved your 'worth'}, he'll switch things up a bit:
"Y'know, Tommy's got a real sensitive heart..you break it, s'not gone end well for any of us."
{Talking to a family member} "They're not too bad, huh? Small, quiet, always does as they're told, not too much of a hassle, now, are they?"
--
Thomas won't necessarily stand up for you, but he'll comfort you almost immediately
If you're ever in a particular mood, Thomas is pretty respectful of boundaries. If you need to be left alone, he's just fine with that. He might leave you a note and slide it under your door - Just a quick little "I love you" or something similar.
If you prefer direct comfort, he's fully willing to let you cry it out , or vent to him. He won't be able to respond much, but know he's processing it all. Depending on how comfortable the two of you are, he's willing to hold you/your hand, some pats on the back and such.
Any comfort you show him, he'll show back. For example; If you gently wipe/caress his face down after {or when} he cries, he'll do the same for you. Ask for what you want, and he'll do just that..most of the time đ«
--
Thomas isn't a huge fan of confrontation - Anything confrontational outside of 'work', really. He knows his 'place' in the family, and isn't willing to push it {aka, argue with his family}. He won't argue for you, or get any family members to stop their pestering, but he will kill for you. Anytime a victim gets too close, he's got something sharp in his hands.
If they hurt you {or anyone in the family, really}, whether it be emotionally or physically, prepare for the goriest, most blood-caked basement you've ever encountered. He needs to take his anger out, and believe me, he will - Even with your pacifistic pleas.
--
Outside of his protective nature, your pacifistic and emotional nature tends to rub off on Thomas. He knows what he's doing, and how important it is to the family - But he gets moments of doubt at times, which are amplified around you.
Those people had lives..families just like his.
Meat.
Meat is all they are.
Don't fail the family, Thomas. They're {you} disposable, family isn't.
_____
Everyone was overwhelmed with the new..'livestock' that came in this afternoon. Although a small group, they fought hard. Hoyt had gotten his nose punched in just thirty minutes prior - It was all crooked and overflowed with blood dripping down his cupid's bow. Momma had gotten it taken care of - Thomas had helped 'realign' his nose best he could, whilst momma helped pack the bleeding. Hoyt would sure swell up and bruise within the next few days..if he hasn't already..
Instead of trying to rest, he bombarded you with insults - "What the fuck is wrong with you?! You didn't think to tell us one of them got out?" - "How fucking useless are you?!" He was really mad at you for that one..
Just like last time, you cried. Frantic, raw, disheveled cries. You fucked up...badly. The thought plagued you terribly, it ate away every ounce of assurance you had. I'm sorry..I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry..it rung through your mind, but your body was paralyzed as it knelt on the carpet; You wouldn't be speaking for quite some time..
It wouldn't matter anyway - Hoyt wasn't the type to hear it. You put the family in danger, that's all that mattered. It didn't matter if you were "sorry" or not - You threatened the Family. Who the hell do you think you are? After all we've given you? Food, shelter, safety, a place of purpose?
Ungrateful. That's what you are. A selfish, clumsy, inconsiderate ingrate.
You were shaking - Desperate to apologize, make it up to them. Your hands covered your face, leaving only small opening to peer through. The room was lit only by a small, vintage lamp in the corner, though that light suddenly blurred within darkness -
You felt your hands being pried from your face, though gently. It was Thomas - Wasn't much of a surprise, he was always the one to ground you.
He held eye contact with you as he lightly dusted away your tears with the backside of his index finger. He held your shaking hands tenderly, placing them at your knees. As he let go of your hands, he slowly raised his {hands} back to your face, tilting his head slightly as if to ask for permission -You continued to sniffle and gasp, providing a small, shaky nod in affirmation. Thomas benevolently grasped your cheeks, wiping tears as he did. You and Thomas had developed this wordless affirmation - a way to ground each other in times of need; He placed his forehead to yours. You often joked that you two 'looked like bugs' from the unconventional angle, and he'd chuckled best he could. He loved you. Truly, loved you.
The room was unusually silent - You looked beside you to see Luda Mae and Hoyt gone, only Uncle Monty facing the window as he read the news. Momma must've dragged Hoyt out...thankfully. You finally looked back at him, he really did look like a bug from this angle.., but he was the sweetest man. He left you a note earlier this morning, right after Charlie had yelled at you the night before:
Nothing's gonna hurt you, baby - I love you.
-Thomas
_____
I hope this isn't too bad - Love you guys thank you so much for the request đ«
Serious question, because this might have changed the storyline of the tcm remakes. If Thomas ever had at least one friend, that ONE friend he managed to get from his upbringing. Possibly back from his childhood, too, let's just say that.
Would Thomas be possessive or a meek individual who would be desperate to keep them close. Like I'm talking about an extreme level of possessiveness that it would be considered sick. I think there's a word for that, I just don't know what it's called.
Because I can see Thomas becoming a stalker at one point and possibly following somebody close to him around if he needs to. Like a "threat" is close to his dear friend, and he's afraid that this person might take them away from him.
GN!Reader x Thomas Hewitt đ«
SUMMARY: You and Thomas have known each other since grade school. As the town of Fuller dies, so does your desire to stay. Feeling guilty, you decide to visit the Hewitts one last time..but Thomas gets possessive following your attempted departure..
_____
Thomas is and always has been desperate for connection. Genuine understanding - Not just acknowledgement. It's rare to be accepted when you're different - And it sure as hell doesn't get easier in a small, conservative town like Fuller. Luckily enough, he had found someone. Someone who didn't recoil in disgust - Someone who didn't laugh when he tried to speak. Someone his momma approved of.
That was back in grade school - Back when things in Fuller were "good." Though, were they ever really good?
When his momma told you about the slaughterhouse shutting down, you were nothing but empathetic. You even offered to help the family out with what little time and money you had. Luda Mae, being the prideful woman she was, declined your offer.
"Keep some for yourself, hun. Gotta do what it takes to survive out here...we'll figure out a way."
Everything got worse when you decided you couldn't stay.
--
One day, you stopped visiting Luda at the community center. No longer stopped by at the slaughterhouse to see Thomas. It was like you were never there.
You had to tell them you were leaving - It wouldn't be right to abandon them all on their own..especially not Thomas. So, you packed up a small basket and headed over to the Hewitt residence. That evening, when you'd knocked on the door, Monty answered.
"Whadd'ya want?"
"I'm here for Ms. Mae..Luda Mae; And Thomas - Are they home?"
He squinted his eyes and weakly scoffed before opening the door further, letting you walk through. He then directed you to the kitchen where Luda Mae was; She'd been preparing dinner just as you walked in.
Monty swiftly knocked on the doorframe, grabbing her attention. As she turned, she scoffed "Monty, for the last damn time, I-" She stopped. Her expression neutralized as she saw you.
"Oh, ____, there you are! Gosh, I haven't seen you in so long; Where've you been?" - "Tommy's been worried sick about you.."
There it was. You'd made Thomas worry..which is exactly why you dreaded coming over; You didn't want to be reminded of the guilty feeling festering inside your stomach.
"Is he alright?" You asked, and Luda nodded.
"Oh, he's just fine, dear. Why don't you go say hi? He's in that damn basement again.."
You agreed, but quickly remembered the basket you brought.
"What's that?" Asked Charlie, he had been watching from the opposing doorway..unbeknownst to you.
"Oh..gifts..for you."
"Me?"
"Well, the family, yes."
"That's so kind of you, dear. What for?" Asked Luda Mae, grabbing the basket from you and placing it on the kitchen table.
"Just..felt like bringing some joy to this dying town."
"That's very kind of ya - Now go see what Tommy's up to, he's missed you like crazy" Charlie said, unimpressed. He sniffled before taking a swig of his beer.
--
You'd known the Hewitt house's layout well; It's not like Thomas would invite you over after school some days...The basement was across from the front door, it'd be hard to miss unless the archway was blocked. As you approached the ominous door, you took back your hand from the handle. What if Thomas didn't want to see you? What if he'd grown resentful of you? You sighed, closed your eyes and went to open the door. To your surprise, a loud screeching sound interrupted you as the door opened seemingly by itself -Except, doors don't open by themselves.
Behind the doorway, a tall, familiarly built man stood before you. His half-mask..muzzle of sorts was tightly wrapped around his head, strangling his neck and chin. He must've heard you - or his family, talking.
"Hi Tommy; I'm so sorry, I know I've been absent - It's not you, I've just been so stressed and confused and-"
You were rambling. He never seemed to mind, especially when you called him "Tommy." He never liked when just anyone used that nickname, it was special. You were special - To him, at least.
"I need to talk to you about something." The way you said that caused him to tense a little. Talk about what? Was it his job? Did he disappoint you?
"Listen, Thomas" Oh no, you were being serious, weren't you? "I love you and your family so so much, and I'm so grateful to have known you for this long..but..I can't stay here."
..What?
"I can't afford to stay here any longer, Tommy. I don't know how you folks are staying - I..there's no jobs, no resources out here, no nothing. It's all gone! I can't live a life like that, how do you survive out here? I'd..I'd love to stay but it's not sustainable for me. I'm so sorry, Thomas."
You're leaving me. After all we've been through together, you're leaving. Just as uncle Charlie said you would..
"It's not anything you've done. I swear."
You can't leave. I won't let you leave - I have nothing. I'll prove to you how good I am - How good I can be, I swear. You can live with us on this farm, just like momma always dreamed of. You're not leaving me; Not after you've met momma, not after the countless times you've saved me from callous assholes out here. No - I couldn't..
"Thomas?"
He had been so lost in thought that he forgot to respond. His expression had dropped immensely - He had been so excited to see you again but now all that excitement was gone.
He'd lost Charlie once. Came close to losing everything, everyone. He would never let that happen again. Especially not when it came to losing you.
"Thomas.."
He had to keep you. Keep you here; In the basement; In the barn; Maybe in a spare bedroom - His bedroom. It didn't matter. You could would not leave.
As he stared you down, you felt an emptiness surround you - A dark, restless entity caging you in. Just as you thought he'd lose it, a voice pierced through from the archway:
"Thomas? Thomas, what on God's green Earth are you doing?"
It was Luda Mae. You didn't know if she'd heard your "conversation" but you were glad enough that she'd come through.
"Now, Tommy, I know you're upset, but let's just..leave ____ to breathe a minute. Okay?"
You mumbled a meek "Thank you" before wiping an unknown tear from your cheek. You'd never seen him like that - Most definitely not with you.
As your anxiety curtailed, you made your way to the living room to sit, holding your head in your hands. You hadn't noticed Monty sitting in the armchair beside the couch; Hell, you hadn't noticed the TV playing either. It was playing some..random news station - One of the few you could get out here.
"So you're leaving us, huh?" He spoke in a rough, gravelly voice.
"You heard that?" You sniffled.
"With the way you were talking, the whole damn house heard." Shit..had you been loud? It didn't seem like it in the moment..
"Don't worry about Thomas, he's an emotional crybaby, ain't he?"
You refused to answer. Seeing Thomas so distressed, so..frightened by the idea of you leaving, it fed your already aggravated guilt. So many hours in his room, so many repetitive school days spent together, drawing in the back of the class. The days when you two used to spend hours at the creek, collecting all sorts of treasures. He even picked a wildflower-bouquet for you - Granted, it was all dirty and withered, but it was enough to signify how much he cared about you. How grateful he was to have you here.
You were stripped of your thoughts as you heard Monty groan and yawn, falling asleep in his chair. The TV had become background noise for the both of you. On the table, two glasses filled with murky water and a note; Folded and slightly dirty. You wiped your eyes again and picked up the note, unfolding it.
Don't leave.
Please.

Guys this is ass should I log off
Anyway, if I didn't cover everything you wanted, please let me know and I'll update it!
Your the only person on this app I've really seen actually understand Thomas, and the Hewitt's family the best. Very gay question i have, how would the Hewitt's react to Thomas having feelings for a man and or think about dating a man (probably didn't phrase that correctly but oh well.) Like all the stories people make, i know it'd probably be like some schnazz where Thomas falls for the victim or whatever, but how'd the family react to that victim being a man (if Thomas would even like a men.)
First of all, thank you!! I try. Second, this is a wonderful question! I'll try my best to answer it đ«
TW: Homophobic/Transphobic statements {Tommy's a sweetheart, dw}
Slurs. Slur after slur after slur - From Monty and Hoyt of course. And really invasive/inconsiderate statements:
"Well, at least someone learned to love your ugly mug..even if it's a man."
"So..who's the bottom/top?" - "You ain't taking it in the ass, are ya, Thomas?"
"Well Momma, guess you ain't getting any grandchildren, huh?"
"Tommy..are you sure you're not confused? I know a few gals who could change yer mind."
--
Thomas {and his future/current partner} will have the best luck with Luda Mae. This Southern Christian woman lives by the Bible {with exceptions..} - But she loves her son to the Heavens. She'll be disappointed, but not because Thomas is gay. She just wanted grandchildren. She'd be disappointed to find out her daughter-in-law was infertile, too. She'd be a bit confused, but she loves Thomas {and his partner} nonetheless. Be prepared for a minor spiral though:
"Thomas, hun, you might just be confused; It's alright. There's plenty of women who'll want you, just you wait."
Thomas..are you sure? Women can be just as if not better, y'know."
"I don't understand..is it something I did wrong?" - She'd be scared she raised Thomas wrong, I feel.
It'll take time for her to get used to, but she'll never insult or belittle Thomas nor his partner. And she'll get his uncles to stop, too.
--
Luda would invite Kathryn {The Tea Lady} over to "destress" {aka, spilling both her and Thomas' guts.}
"Oh you wont believe what Thomas told me today- It's..it's not too good."
"Well, what is it? You look a bit tense, it's best to get it off your shoulders."
She sighs. "Thomas told me he's 'gay'..."
"What?"
"A homosexual, Kathryn."
"Well..well that just doesn't make any sense; He just hasn't met the right woman yet!"
"That's what I told him!"
"It'll be alright. He's..he's confused, that's all. Ain't thinking straight."
"I know!" - "I just..I hope it wasn't something I did."
"Oh, nonsense, Luda. He's confused, just as he was when he started putting them animal skins on his face. It'll go away eventually."
But the animal skins never left - They only progressed {do you see the point I'm trying to make? đ}
--
If you happened to be a trans man/trans masc, prepare for even more madness from all family members..
Thomas wouldn't love you any less, it's the family who'd give you issues.
"Oh, so it's a woman then?"
"Right...so a lady playing dress-up as a guy."
"Well, at least you're still getting some pussy; Huh, Tommy?"
"Great..two misguided freaks..how fun"
"Gosh, it's one thing to be gay, but you couldn't even get a real man, Tommy?"
And Luda Mae would bug Thomas and his partner even MORE about grandchildren..good luck.
As time progresses, his family will become quieter better. They'll keep comments to themselves and won't pry too deep :)
--
As Thomas' partner, - and I know this is a lot to ask of someone - you'll have to reassure him constantly. He truly thinks something is wrong with him from the way he looks, to the way he acts, and now to who he's attracted to. He loves his partner very much; He's attracted not only to their body, but to their mind - their soul. He lives a very sheltered life; So it's up to you {assuming you're his partner} to introduce him to certain aspects of life :)
How exciting...
He'll always affirm you in ways he can - He doesn't really view you as his "male" partner. His "trans" partner. His "Cis" partner. He doesn't give a fuck anyway. He just views you as his partner; Who happens to be a man. Who happens to be trans/cis. Even then, he's not really focused on that - He just likes looking at you; Especially your eyes. He feels connected to you, like soul ties.
Be patient with him, and he'll be patient with you - That includes shielding you from his family đ«

Not much was left of that forgotten town. The funding was gone, as were the people. After the meat plant shut down, residents lost their purpose in Fuller. It was a shadow of the life previously flourishing there - something only the wildlife could frolic in; Which is exactly why you were here. Miguel, a childhood best friend of yours, wanted to enlist near Dallas. Heâd brought you and some mutual friends along promising tickets to a music festival, which you had accepted on the means of exploring the state. It had seemed ideal then but the overwhelming heat of the Texas sun proved otherwise. As you leaned your head on the window; August, who had been sitting in the passenger seat, began to mumble - Something about âneeding to fix the air conditioner.â He always was one to complain; Miguel often joked about his âparticularnessâ, saying he was a primma-donna at times. Though, he wasnât too annoying; Not today anyway. A sweet guy with a kind smile, a bit too kind at times. Theia, Miguelâs sister - and mutual friend of yours, had her hair entangled in the wind with her head out the back-passenger window; Flowing in deep curls and coils.Â
Driving through the backroads wasnât too entertaining, requesting a scenic route didnât make it any better either. You fussed with the lace of your shoe - bending and untying, bending, untying, bending, untyi-Â
âHello, did you hear us?âÂ
You quickly turned your head, releasing the worn laces from your hands. You felt a small tap on your bicep - It was Edith. Edith was a classmate-turned-girlfriend of Augustâs, one of Miguelâs friends. She was nice, just a bit impatient, which had been amplified by the unforgivable heat.Â
âWeâre gonna stop at a gas station in about 3 miles, okay?âÂ
âYeah..thatâs fine. I needed a break anyway.â You said; Your legs had been feeling a bit numb from the lack of use. Sure would be nice to get your blood flowing. And Lord, did it do just that.
__
It had been hours since that drive; Since youâd made it to the community center; Since youâd felt safe. August was long gone; last you saw of him was his spotted blood-trail leading to the basement. The harsh screeching of that steel door sliding open, paired with the hiss of Augustâs nails as he dug them deep into the walls, attempting to prolong the inevitable torture. Edith; Dearest Edith. Her throat hoarse as she wailed, bleeding through the walls of the decaying house. Miguel, sweet Miguel. He was tied down the chair beside you, half-conscious. Dried blood painted his right temple, flowing down from the gash which plagued his hairline. His lips looked so mundane, as did his usually deep complexion. His head was tilted towards you, clouded eyes staring weakly. As your head lay defeatedly against the crest rail, the beaded eyes of a deer - long dead, glared. It scowled at the two of you from its head bust, nailed to the middle wall. Below it, two windows and a thin table dressed with picture frames and a cloth suffocated by years of dust and dirt. As you tried to think clearly, a pair of footsteps stuttered behind the walls. Strong and angered footsteps pounded the withered wooden floors, followed by frantic and unsteady ones. The sheriff - pseudo-sheriff - forced Theia into the dining room, her wails of protest filling the already claustrophobic atmosphere. As he threw her into the chair opposite of Miguel, another set of footsteps followed in. The âbarbaric, chainsaw-wielding psycho,â as Edith had called him, approached Theia. His swole hands took the rope from the sheriffâs aged ones, binding Theiaâs wrists and ankles to the chair limbs.Â
âThere you go, that wasnât so hard, now was it?â The sheriff taunted, his perverted eyes traveling down her form. âI tend to prefer blondes but, hell, I know a pretty thing when I see one.âÂ
The sheriff cupped Theiaâs shoulders as he forced his lips upon her head. His lecherous movements didnât go unnoticed by anyone; Especially not Miguel. Even in his weakened state, he spat at the sheriff, his eyes filled with contempt.
âGet the fuck off her, you fucking whore!â He screamed - The sheriff immediately turned to Miguel, his eyes filled with slight shock. That shock was quickly overturned by indignation.Â
âNow who put you the fuck incharge?â He mockingly questioned as he walked over to Miguel, grabbing his hair and shoving his head into the table; âLast time I checked, this badge is the authority around here. I make the demands; I challenge the rules, not candy-ass hippie soy-boys like you.â The sheriff retorted as he let go of Miguelâs head, leaning his arms against the crest rail; âGet a grip on yourself, son; This shit donât fly in out here, you got that?â
Miguel was now barely breathing, his eyes were glossed over and almost completely closed.Â
It hurt so much to see him fade. The light which was once rampant within him had disappeared. He weakly opened his eyes, their lids fluttering under the warm lights. You thought maybe he had gained the strength for something. Just do something. But he couldnât. His eyes inevitably shut again as he steadied his breathing.Â
âGoddamn it..â You defeatedly whined. Your wrists struggled between the rope as it dug into your already stripped skin.Â
The brutish butcher had been standing in the corner of the room; Observing. He didnât seem enthusiastic or encouraging of the matter; Rather - dissociated. His hands grasped onto the strings of his apron, bending and untying, bending, untying; Just as you had earlier. It was an intricate silence between the five of you; The sheriff had already gone back to leeching off Theia, and you couldnât bear to look. Soon enough, the elderly woman from the community center presented a covered pot amongst the few of you; Placing it down on the aged lace that blanketed the old wooden table.Â
âTommy, set the table for us, dear.â She said as she looked over towards Theia and the sheriff. âAnd you, give her some room! Donât want to spoil dinner with your whirlwind of trouble.âÂ
The sheriff lightly scoffed, but left Theia to rest. He stood behind âhisâ chair at the head of the table, opposite to you. He mumbled a soft âNo need for bellyachinâ..â before adjusting his back.Â
As âTommyâ returned with the plates, an elderly man appeared behind him. He approached the empty spot at the table and positioned his wheelchair accordingly; His expression often seemed dull and exhausted - That is until he saw a woman he fancied. His smug and slimy eyes would wander up and down as his body heat heightened. It was revolting. Luckily, he had no interest in Theia - he had voiced that many times.Â
âWhereâd you put that other one? The blonde.â He impatiently asked. The sheriff scoffed in reply, turning his head unamused.Â
âIn my room, thatâs where. Ainât none of your concern, now is it?â
âWhat? But you have that one right over there! You know I donât like âem like that-â Monty protested, only to be cut off.
âWatch your mouths! I will not have any fighting at this table, do you understand me?â Luda Mae declared. She wasnât one for unnecessary confrontation; Especially not over âungodlyâ topics such as these.Â
Both of them rolled their eyes, parting ways as they sat back. Thomas was sitting beside Theia, though he seemed uncomfortable. He kept staring between you and Miguel, only looking away during conversation. You were terrified to say the least; How could you not be? Your friends, your only support system, murdered in front of you. And now youâre forced to eat with the perpetrators? Tears you didnât recognize fell from your eyes - mixing with blood and dirt to create a streaky film over your cheeks and neck. You tried to control your breathing, attempting to draw as little attention to yourself as possible. Nothing couldâve prepared you for this. Nothing. You hopelessly looked around the room, gravitating towards Thomas. He was still staring at you. Though his body language portrayed his enervation; His muted blue eyes looked consistently curious, and crazed. The staring continued for some time until the sheriff - Hoyt, interrupted:
âBow your heads - Let's give thanks for the bounty that's been given us.â
