* ObliviousToLove: He seemingly has ''no clue'' that Jack might be flirting with him.
* SupremeChef: His pies are dangerously good. He even managed to bribe his way into a seniors-only seminar his sophomore year with one.
* TeamChef: He regularly cooks for the rest of the team. Him referring to the Haus kitchen as "mine" and later begrudgingly correcting it to "*our... but let's be real, mine" is a RunningGag on his Twitter account.

* CampGay: He's a short, skinny, fairly effeminate kid who likes well-built young men, baking, and Beyoncé.
!Jack Zimmermann
* TheAce: Handsome, famous hockey prodigy and the son of a hockey legend.
* AmbiguouslyBi: Bitty's convinced he's straight and several other characters espouse similar beliefs, but once they get over their initial animosity, much of his behavior around Bitty seems an awful lot like flirting. His interaction with Parse also comes across more like a conversation between exes than former best friends.

* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Zimmerman''n'', not Zimmerman.
