Thomas is a beeps and boops kind of guy. Couldn't tell you what his favourite band is. Whatever's on the radio. Has a love-hate relationship with musicals, since they're his daytime job, but the music is more his husband's thing. #baristaverse
#baristaverse Thomas comes from a long line of assholes. They were involved in witch trials, killed one of their own because he was a witch. There's also the family demon who playfully yearns for Thomas' soul. His sister, her family and his cousin are cool, though.
I think Thomas would panic more getting a grey hair than, let's say, getting stabbed in the gut. While the latter sucks and hurts, he's immortal and will only have a bad time. But a grey hair? Does he age, just really slowly? Was it there before? Unconsolable for a while. #baristaverse

Thomas went from the couch, the sleeping quarters of the café, his boyfriend's bed, back to the couch to the Upper Eastside and now in a fictional London Terrace Towers' penthouse his husband got from one of his pacts.
Thomas LOVES being called a "good catholic boy" while James fucks his brains out. Because only a Good Catholic Boy takes a archdemon dick so well :)
#baristaverse
Thomas and James are not strictly 24/7, but both enjoy some lighter powerplay outside their home. People used to call James the redflag boyfriend because it wasn't communicated well to Thomas' friends (which is entirely Thomas' fault).
#baristaverse
Thomas: Explain to the vampire that he shouldn't bite people without their consent, especially not at parties when people are drunk and that his job as an exorcist is to shield the ~innocent~ from ~evil~ monsters like the vampire.
#baristaverse
Thomas: wants to be casual about it, ends up only being very casual about it with his husband.
James is only casual about it when the other guy is an asshole whose soul he can collect. When it is with his husband, it's a whole stage play planned to the minute. #baristaverse
Thomas LOVES being bitten. He has a lot of vampire friends with benefits - no sex, but it's his job "to soothe the 'evil' monsters" and it's not his fault they always get out their monstrous side around him. He's just saving humans. The Vatican doesn't need to know the rest.
#baristaverse
I just wondered why Thomas never did that, James usually loves making Thomas uncomfortable especially in presence of Thomas' ex-husband ... but I just decided to put it on Thomas' hard limit list because he has unexpected emergency missions as an exorcist, and it would be in the way. #baristaverse
He's a demon and a man, Thomas' parents would cut him off all over again if he didn't go no contact as soon as he got out.
His sister is very supportive and his niece LOVES her evil demon lord uncle
He didn't really have time to catch up with his brother, I don't think he'd accept it. #baristaverse
Thomas speaks German, English and Italian. Additionally, he knows Latin ('knows' carries a lot of weight, according to his classically trained friends), and a little bit of Greek and Hebrew from his Exorcist training. #baristaverse
Nils and Thomas at an anime con. Nils would be in full Cosplay to hide from the sun, Franziska would gleefully try to get Thomas into a maid dress this time. Nils is a panel guy, while Thomas is shopping. His husband carries the bags, even tho he's not really into this stuff.
#baristaverse
Thomas (yes, Thomas, Catholic, Exorcist but not yet when it happened), cheated on his then-partner with his now-husband. In his defence, both were pretty much done but didn't really talk about it, but their friendship really suffered for a long time. #baristaverse
James. Thomas had his sword deep in his chest and he started dissolving, and he was just smitten that a human could even hurt an archdemon. According to his assistant, he was like a teenage girl before Thomas even admitted anything. Allegedly, notebooks full of hearts were involved. #baristaverse
Think those are the most important from the #baristaverse. And I kind of forgot the last names of some characters, they are written down in a notebook somewhere but they didn't appear in a long time as main characters. Also, Felix died with 35, but haven't decided how dead he is)
As any good catholic boy, Thomas' prefers his husband's demon form to his human form. Little does he know that Kobus didn't go FULL arch demon on him yet. #baristaverse
Thomas Krüger *reading Conclave*: I don't like the creative freedom it takes with canon law.
Also Thomas Krüger: But this is the closest I ever get to experience Vatican drama since both Cardinal Hermenier and Giovanni (Cardinal Clemente/Hermenier's successor) never tell me ANYTHING #baristaverse
Thomas *was just brutally killed by a demon at his wedding celebration waking up in a strange bed* "Did my husband by a new house without telling me? Again?"
(Thomas is dead again, it must be Saturday night)
#baristaverse
Pietà TIme! But it's you (a white Jesus From NRW) and your demon lord husband (a silver fox with a tight-fitting suit) #baristaverse
If he had a nickel every time his marriage was ruined by his brutal death, Thomas would have two nickels, which isn't much but it's weird that it happened twice. #baristaverse
I just noticed I never really did anything with Faust - I mentioned him as one of Mephistopheles' Champions (humans he found remarkable and 'kept') but apart from a very early draft, he never appeared. Maybe in Part 3? Who knows, not me. #baristaverse
So when he remarks to himself "Augenblick, verweile doch! Du bist so schön" he completely forgot what happens next. #baristaverse
I haven't done a Faust callback in a LONG while in my writing - they did discuss the "Moment flying", but never discussed it further. Thomas was Mephistopheles' champion once, but 7th grade is long ago and Thomas had other things in his head. #baristaverse
"This is the first wedding I attended that used a pagan ritual to marry a satanic arch-demon to a catholic exorcist."
"We had to improvise..." Thomas said. "He doesn't do well with Christian blessings." #baristaverse
While Thomas is slathering a lot of sunscreen on his tattoos and wearing the worst Hawaiian shirt to hide his battle scars and his (consensual) bruises, his husband is wearing the tiniest speedo he could possibly get away with just to make Thomas the right amount of horny for later. #baristaverse
James 'My last mobile phone was literally a car phone' Hayes (arch demon): "What else would you use a smartphone other than sending dick pics to your husband?"
(Thomas learned the hard way to discreetly check his smart watch before checking his phone) #baristaverse
„Ich bin ein böser Dämon!“ sagte James eingeschnappt.
#baristaverse
"So eine Art Verbraucherschutz gegen Dämonenpakte."
#baristaverse
Finally got to the point where Demon Lord Husband who was evoked by a secret society meets his exorcist husband who infiltrated it just to get him out again. Now he's here for the entertainment. Demon Lord Husband is a Theatre Kid and there will be a SHOW for the secret society. #baristaverse
