I do like the idea of them having known each other years ago. Adam's almost ten years younger than him, but if Thomas ever took the time to notice a very small, very angry, very quiet, very over-protective of his mama kid, then Adam probably acted like he was some sort of rock star.
Adam's probably not the right sort of crowd for an exclusive gentleman's club, but random meet ups are good as are drinks and bitching. He makes a great sassy (mostly) gay friend.
