Describe {{Entan}} here.

Who is this contributor?

Hmm. Interesting question. He's interested in semiotics and theology, is a total history geek, is an obsessive and somewhat pathetic ''DoctorWho'', ''{{Simoun}}'', and BeeTrain Girls-with-Guns fan, has an LJ but prefers to keep his Intarwebz identity fragmented (and thus will never bring this up again), and occasionally breaks down and admits to being just an easily confused young man with a memory that manages to be selective and eidetic ''at the same time.''

The following tropes apply to him.

* TheWhitePrince: sort of. He has the same inability to understand how normal people operate, but it's academic rather than class-based.
* ImpoverishedPatrician.
* TheStoic: played mostly straight; occasional subversions.
** {{Kuudere}}: ''Holy shit'' is he emotional under it all...
* TVTropesWillRuinYourLife.
* YuriFan: he also gets along very well with real-life lesbians. They talk about what girls they'd date.
* TheChessmaster: rare ChaoticGood example, as he's willing to manipulate people into doing things that they'd rather not, but not if it would actually harm them. Unfortunately he's not actually GOOD at it.
* IronWoobie.
* MoralityPet: his {{Nakama}}.
* {{Nakama}}: Played completely straight.
* TheMasochismTango: ''every girl he knows.''
* MistakenForGay: quite frequently.
* CakeEater: "[real name] likes older women" has reached MemeticMutation status among his friends.
* NonActionGuy: although he's fairly handy with [that type of saw that cuts on both the push and pull strokes].
* GadgeteerGenius: sometimes.
* TheSmartGuy.
* EmoTeen: subverted. He angsts a lot but remains a fairly idealistic person.
* YouSuck: he feels this way about himself quite a lot.
* BornInTheWrongCentury: ever since seeing ''SpiceAndWolf'', he's wished he was Lawrence. That's just ''one'' example.
* PerverseSexualLust: yyeaaahh
* StoicSpectacles.
* BlindWithoutEm: subverted, although he still has to squint at a distance.
* SubbingVersusDubbing: subbing.
* ThemeNaming: every male in his family except for him and a few distant cousins is named Paul or something containing Paul. His mother and her two sisters are all named after Broadway stars (and, incidentally, CampGay icons).
* GeekyTurnOn: all the way.
* SlidingScaleOfIdealismVersusCynicism: he tends to bounce around a lot.
* HollywoodAtheist: averted. He has no idea why people tend to just assume he's not religious, but it bugs him. But then, how many liberal Nishidan Anglicans do you see walking around?
* {{Tsundere}}: Male Type A. But when he goes dere, ''[[RealMenWearPink he]]'' ''[[ClingyJealousGirl goes]]'' '''''[[{{Yandere}} dere]]'''''.
** {{Yandere}} to an extent.
* {{Bishonen}}: Non-conventionally. He gets 'pretty' FAR more often than 'handsome'.
* RealMenWearPink: His hopeless schmoopy romanticism.
* {{Determinator}}: From slapping a friend who was worried about his depression and concerned that he might be DrivenToSuicide (asking if she took him for a dunce) to [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome walking a mile and a half on a shattered knee]] and...when he got home...
-->Mother: Is there anything you need?
-->Me: [[OuranHighSchoolHostClub I could go for three bowls of rice.]] Oh, and an Ace bandage.
* SquishyWizard: He walks with a pronounced limp, thus also:
** GeniusCripple.
* GentleGiant
* GeniusDitz: His specialty is the Humanities.
* HahvahdYahdInMyCah: He's from the non-existent Western Massachusetts/Southern Vermont area but has the non-rhotic accent characteristic of Cape Cod and the Maine coast, for Cape Cod is where he spends his summers.
* BrokenBird.
** StarCrossedLovers: He had one.
* ADarkerMe: Averted. He doesn't know what his fat older cousin Darrell does when he lets him use his account for TVTropes ''and he doesn't want to know''.[[hottip:*:Don't worry, Darrell doesn't mind that I describe him like that.]]
* [[SettledForGay Settled For Lesbian]]: He has this kind of (non-sexual) relationship with his lesbian best friend. For now, anyway.

Formerly {{Namta}}, he forgot his password and subsequently deleted all his cookies. Yes, he's an idiot.
