i really like ISTJ for him, similar enough to the original leatherface but differing with his aux and tert functions. Si - i talk about OG leatherface's Si on his page so i won't repeat myself too much here since it's mostly all still applicable to thomas. the jist is he's been taught rules and ideas about outsiders (they're bad/dangerous, must be killed and eaten for survival) and understands + responds to new information by comparing it to those structures Te - this is the main area where he and OG leatherface differ. structured, detached from feelings, impersonal, practical. i'd need to rewatch the movies to find explicit examples of his Te (even though he has barely any screen time 😔) but i think it says a lot that he's the only leatherface that shows no fear or interest towards his victims. e.g. tcm1 sally, tcm2 stretch, leatherface lizzy, etc. there's always a girl leatherface has a soft spot for, but not thomas. he's here to chainsaw some people and go home. even how he moves screams Te, the man has stuff to do! Fi - ties in with his Si. he has his ideas on the world and makes choices by conferring with what he knows to be true and what HE believes. he doesn’t look to others to tell him what's right and wrong. sure, he'll take orders from hoyt but he but does so because he agrees, not because he's scared or worried about disrupting social harmony. again, i'd need to rewatch for examples but i definitely see Fi over Fe Ne - explained on OG leatherface's page but he has a hatred of the new (life without his job, intruders) and will do what it takes to keep things familiar and stable
