Character
Tom Rid, also called Tom Riddle, owns a goff clothing store in Hogsmeade. He helps Enoby, Willow and B'loody Mary by showing them the real goff clothes he keeps hidden from the posers and prepz. He gives Ebony some free clothes because she looks so hot in them. When he asks her if she's going to the concert that night, she says yes, introduces herself, and he does the same - and says that he might see her there. However, Ebony points out that she's going with Draco, and calls him a 'sick perv'. The narrative implies he would have begged her to go with him, but Hargrid shows up to demand Ebony returns to the school. It's mentioned that Tom would help the goths out with makeup and stuff if HE wanted because he's into fashion, due to his bisexuality.
The last time the story mentions Tom Rid is when Ebony inexplicably discovers him in Professor Sinister's office. He gives Ebony some "new cloves," including some "stilton" boots, blood red "fishnetz" and a blak corset.
In My Immortal, Tom Riddle is not related whatsoever to Tom Satan Bombodil (Voldemort), despite sharing Voldemort's real name from the original series.
