Thompson is the protector of the gang. He is willing to do almost anything to keep them together. He recognizes the importance of their relationship. Analyst teams often overlook and under-appreciate their Thompson. The Gravity Falls teens do as well. But Thompson may be the most important member of the gang.

Robbie Valentino

He is part emo, part ladies man, and a somewhat incompetent alpha male. On Gravity Falls, Robbie is laden with plenty of teen angst and emo stereotypes, but he is still a solid profile of the team “rock star”.

He is the guy with the ego, with the style, and often with the drama. He is never really fit to be the leader, but the team derives a lot of their personality from him. Keeping him happy becomes a burden in itself. Fortunately Mabel steps in to be the gang people person.

Tambry

Welcome to the new millennium! Every diversified analytic team is going to have a Tambry. Introverted (by appearance), often distracted, infatuated with their phone, and sometimes you wonder why she is there. Does she really like any of us?

Not to get into some sort of ill-advised gender rant, but Tambry is symbolic of the “other” female analysts. She is not a Tomboy-esque leader type like Wendy. She wouldn’t even be comfortable playing that role (right now). She herself is a little unsure how she fits in, but a good team will help her figure that out (enter Mabel).

Nate & Lee

To be honest, I don’t know which is which… and I am keeping it that way. Every team has a core similar to these two guys. There is no questioning their friendship and camaraderie. They are the heart of the gang.
