Rude....

a month or so after the accident, hen tries to talk to tommy (or just asks him if he's alright) and he shoves her away harder than he ever has before. and she's stunned, not really physically hurt because she's still taller than him at this point and can 100% shove him back harder, but she doesn't. she's just confused and emotionally hurt. so she tells him something about how auntie luda wouldn't like it if she knew tommy was going around hitting girls, but thomas just goes into his room and ignores her.

they don't really ever speak about it afterwards. thomas doesn't really speak at all, afterwards.

thomas and henrietta familial headcanons

as i said in another post, i think thomas and henrietta are about four years apart in age (henrietta being the older one, born sometime in 1935). i don't have a real reason for thinking this besides 1.) hen's view of thomas as this poor little boy who can do no wrong gives very much "Big Sibling treating their Baby Sibling like a Baby" vibes to me, and 2.) it makes my family tree make more sense el oh el

chapter 7 of darkest hour is gonna focus on the two of them and their relationship pretty closely, so naturally i've been thinking about it more. i think the two of them were real close in childhood, especially before thomas hurt himself. henrietta, in my lore, is kathy's (the tea lady's) daughter, and her father is dead (murdered by her grandfather el oh el!!!) and she has no siblings because of that. she was never really supposed to be born. kathy wanted her more than anything, but she was conceived out of wedlock and her grandfather saw her as kathy's "mistake". i imagine that'd make her really lonely in the first couple years of her life

so then auntie luda adopts this baby when hen's about four years old. i think hen would see tommy almost as a little brother, a friend that she's been wanting since forever. an end to the loneliness

henrietta would've been tommy's only real friend too, i think. she's still family, but she's the closest to him in age (charlie was about 12-13 when he was adopted) and therefore the most "equal" to him if that makes sense. they were close as kids, always getting into shit, playing in the woods and coming home covered in dirt. i think thomas really had fun with her

and then the accident happened when tommy was about 8, and he stopped talking after that. really withdrew into himself, even more so than he was already doing before. hen would've been around 12 at the time, and she would've noticed this change in thomas the most (besides luda mae). tommy would start working at the slaughterhouse a little while after he healed (fuck child labor laws i guess!!!) and just become so distant. unreadable. still so sensitive, terribly so, but he never spoke a real word to hen again.

from then on, i see their relationship as one where henrietta worries for thomas and just wants him to be happy, and thomas grows up and goes deeper and deeper into his self-loathing. they're not as close as they were as kids but i think thomas would genuinely trust her most out of everyone in the family. luda mae would be a closeee second but that's still his mom, so he's not gonna view her the way he views his "big sister" y'know?

anyways!!! i'm rambling. these r just my thoughts

it’s so interesting to me that no one really writes about what happens to the hewitts after the 1973 massacre. like there’s some content in the comics, but those are largely inconsistent and also i just don’t like them. if you look past them, there’s like this huge fucking treasure trove of possibilities. think about it: what does a family of six (thomas, luda mae, henrietta, kathy, monty, jed) who’ve all been declared legally dead even do? they’re free in a sense—they’ve been given a second chance with little to no consequences and have been forced to leave their home in texas. could they redeem themselves and just live a quiet life somewhere else? would they want to?

i could be remembering wrong, but in the novelization, the hewitt house is bulldozed over and the basement is filled with cement. it’s a complete government cover-up. where would the remaining family go??? would they go to another state? or even pass the southern border into mexico?

of course i already have my own ideas but that’s all involving eddie. it would be so cool to see other people tackle that aspect of the story imo

the notes on this post are going insane. should i draw young thomas and henrietta? in my lore they're only four years apart so they were real close as kids methinks

i feel bad for not updating in a year so here's a snippet of what i'm working on just for you guys mwah

Susanne let out a long, childish whine. “I don’t know how much more stretchin’ I can take!” The small smile tugging at her rosy lips told Eddie she hadn’t really been all that upset, despite the beads of sweat running down her forehead. In the hour it had taken the three to get this far, Eddie had the time to look, really look, at Susanne. She had this soft look to her, almost fragile, with doe-eyes and all. Eddie had met half a million women just like her; each of them had that gentleness, that niceness, with no sharp, stray edges. Those girls—this girl—probably would’ve been someone his mother wanted him to marry, someone “nice”. Not good, not bad. Just nice. Picture-perfect. For a time, Eddie believed wholeheartedly that he could live like that. Cookie-cutter house in the suburbs, white picket fence, a handful of kids. His neighborhood growing up had hardly been a suburb, but weren’t they all told to dream of one? Told that that was the right way to live? The only way to? For a time, Eddie yearned for a woman like Susanne. Someone who could mend him, all his wear and tear. Someone who could show him the right way to live. Right and wrong didn’t matter all that much anymore. Eddie learned what living was.
