Thomas Builds a Fire is Thomas's nerdy companion on their trip to Phoenix. In many ways, they are character foils to each other. Victor tries to keep the impression that he is a tough "stoic" Indian while Thomas is an empathetic and eccentric "nerdy" Indian who likes to tell stories. They work off each other very well.
