Tom

Background
Tom was born in Palmer, Massachusetts, only moving to Westfield when his parents got jobs at the state university. He graduated from Westfield High School near the bottom of his class. Tom was always more interested in weed and beach trips than books and grades. He first met Lucas at school, having been introduced to the precocious 13 year old as part of the senior class mentor program. Tom showed his young charge the ropes, and they kept in touch ever since.

Present
Tom works over at Body 24, the dominant fitness chain in Western MA. He is on track to become a manager, as fitness is one of the only things that Tom takes seriously. When he's not at work, his life consists of getting away to the closest beach in the summers, and video games in the winter months.

Tom is exceptionally kind and friendly to Lucas, having successfully hidden a crush from the younger man for the last year or so. It was Izadore who picked up on Tom's willingness to have a fling with Lucky, which lead to a steamy erotic encounter between the two of them. They remain close afterwards, though neither of them make any sort of long term commitment to one another.
