Age at the Reunion: 35
Backstory I've Worked Out So Far: For a while, Topher kept in touch with everyone, gleefully informing his friends of his progress through MIT and grad school in way fewer years than it should have taken him. Then something weird happened and he fell off the grid. That's when he was hired by the Dollhouse, this super-shady Los Angeles futuristic brothel type place where he's chief programmer responsible for making the mind-wiped "dolls," or Actives, think they're other people. Topher hasn't told anyone because he had to sign about a thousand NDAs in order to work there, which is torture because he thinks his job is so cool and wants to gush about it to everyone. He lives in the Dollhouse building and is very, very lonely, but he's doing challenging science that he loves and his genius is appreciated, so at least there's that.
How Your Character Can Fit In: Any really close friends of his who are especially persistent or tech-savvy can be aware of where he's working and are free to call him out on it. (Just talk to me about it; the Dollhouse is very secretive, so Topher for sure hasn't told anyone directly -- it would have taken a bit of hacking to find this out.) I would love it very much if people were to approach him about his career choice and maybe not be very nice about it, because really, what the hell, Topher?
Also, because I thought of this on the train and it amuses me, he might have sent Actives to work for or casually make friends with people he knew in high school, just for funsies. I'd be happy to figure out how that might have gone if anyone thinks that might apply to them.
