Someone either here or tiktok brought up that Tom has piercings in when he's space cowboy and thought they were fake, but he also has them in the cologne ad. I'm gonna head canon that he does have actual piercings and he just doesnt always wear them.

Give it that little edgy guy vibe to go with soft boy nerd Ryland.

I did not expect to like your Crackship AU as much as I did, but here I am haha. I'm currently about to read part 9, and the series has got me so hooked. It's so fun with Tom and Ryland's shenanigans about going out and trying not to be found out by the public, and with Colt being so protective of Ryland. It's so interesting seeing a new side of Tom, one that's gentle and actually cares, that's soft and is careful not to pressure or upset Ryland. But yet he's still enough of a douchbag for Colt's "accident" to still happen (although one could argue the reason behind it wasn't as selfish as it is in the movie, but still, wtf man). It's gonna be interesting to see how much worse things will go before they actually get better.✨

My goal was I wanted him to feel like a person. Not just an archetype. I didn't really plan for it to go how it did. I just kind of let it happen naturally. The first piece i wrote as his POV i literally went in with almost no plan at all for how i was gonna characterize him or express his inner monologue. I like where I landed though. Hes actually kind of sad and relatable. Its kind of hard to explain him honestly but im going to attempt anyway.

I think his changes are for the most part specific to Ryland.

He's still capable of being an asshole. He doesn't really care about anyone else. He often doesn't give a shit about the opinions of others. He can be rather dismissive. Due to that he does crappy stuff.

He has a whole fling with Savannah and can't even remember her name. Definitely douchebag behavior.

Before Ryland he was fine with being an asshole. He only is truly considerate towards Ryland. He stops shamelessly flirting and fooling around with multiple partners and stops picking on Colt as much. He takes Ryland’s thoughts, concerns and opinions seriously.

He's not infallible though and does fall back in to some bad habits as well. The bender in part 9 being a big one.

I also think of his confident exterior as a kind of shield. He has a lot of buried insecurities. Literally calls himself damage. He thinks he's poisonous. I think thats always been there. He just had no reason to analyze it before.

Essentially though Ryland makes Tom want to be better. Most of that is specifically for Ryland, but it does end up impacting others too. He also has a protective streak for Ryland which often gets used against him.

Idk i have a hard time explaining some parts. There's a lot of nuance with him. Idk if this all makes sense.

i’m so starstruck pilled that while i was watching bullet train, all i could think of was “oh if this was a tom ryder movie, ryland grace would be all over him behind the scenes”

like he’s seeing him with dark hair and a moustache for the first time AND tom has to do a british accent??

yeah, bro is a gonner

Anyone have any thoughts about which Ryan goes with Jim-Markiplier?

I'm thinking a SNL character.

Maybe Angelo Skaggs
