Tao is an intense yet somehow low-key young man in his junior high years, generally moody and protective of those closest to him, his best friend being Charlie Green, about whom he worries ever since accidentally “outing” him. Tao himself has a massive crush on Elle Argent, and while usually speaking bluntly and without much hesitation, comes to be at a total loss for words and sense with her. Can come across as selfish or cynical, but means well for the people he cares about.
