My name's Chris, but I go by Gamma 097 note online. I'm a shy, introverted American college student who has willingly allowed TV Tropes to ruin my life. I acquired a fascination toward the whole anime thing when I happened upon the trope-saturated anime The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya.
I'm also on DeviantArt, MyAnimeList, Reddit, Tumblr, and YouTube.

Tropes that apply to me
- Afraid of Needles: Not a full-blown phobia, though. If it’s medically necessary that I get an injection, then I’ll reluctantly take it. I don't want to die, after all.
- Apologizes a Lot: I don't like to inconvenience people, so this happens when I invariably do.
- Big Eater
- Book Dumb: If only procrastination wasn't so damn fun.
- Cloudcuckoolander: I space out here and consistently end up embarrassing myself as a result. At my worst, I miss things literally right in front of me.
- Contemplate Our Navels: More often than I probably should.
- Cross Player
- Geek: I’m quite fond of science fiction, video games, music, and writing.
- Gateway Series: Puella Magi Madoka Magica was my first Magical Girl show and I was instantly hooked on the genre. From there, I got into Sailor Moon, Lyrical Nanoha, Pretty Cure, and oh so many others.
- Girl-Show Ghetto: A decent amount of the anime/manga I enjoy falls here.
- Nervous Wreck: Downplayed. I don’t have any kind of disorder, but I’m a teenager. My hormones and fight-or-flight instinct both run rampant just about constantly.
- Myers Briggs: I'm an ISTJ.
- Must Have Caffeine
- Neutral Good
- no punctuation is funnier
- Not a Morning Person
- Sophisticated as Hell
- The Quiet One: See Shrinking Violet.
- The Red Stapler: I started drinking more Dr. Pepper after finishing Steins;Gate.
- Self-Deprecation
- Shrinking Violet: I’m shy and socially awkward. Not really a severe case like, say, Hanako Ikezawa, though. Around my immediate family (and to a lesser extent, my friends), I tend to invert the trope, oddly enough.
- Sliding Scale of Idealism Versus Cynicism: I bounce back and forth across the line like Newton's Cradle.
- The Stoic: The sight of me smiling is apparently rare to some people. I’m surprised, given how often I giggle to myself like an idiot about something that comes to mind.
- TV Tropes as a Gateway Drug: All too often, I find a thing (usually an anime) somewhere, am intrigued, and put it on my constantly-expanding Plan to Watch list to be forgotten for an indeterminate period of time.
Pages I created
Images I added/created
- Big Little Man
- Genesis of Aquarion (Characters)
- Neon Genesis Evangelion (Characters): The picture for Maya was broken somehow, so I replaced it.
- Rebuild of Evangelion (Characters): I added pictures to most characters without one and changed pictures from the original series.
- Star Trek Reboot (Characters): Amanda Grayson, Harewood, Keenser, Sarek, and Scotty, since everyone else already had a picture.
