Line 32:
* Commander Gendo Ikari from ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]''.
** And Rei for that matter. Especially on the moments that she suddenly decides to speak to Asuka.
* Sousuke Sagara from ''[[Full Metal Panic!]]''. Especially noticeable in the ''Burning One Man Force'' novel, with his interactions with Nami and her group. After every victory in the arena, the group always has festive celebrations with beer and drunk chatter. And every time, he'll always be sitting away, quietly sipping his water. Nami, [[Chick Magnet|having a crush on him]], tends to watch him yearningly. Numerous times, she tries to go over and talk to him, but every answer from him tends to kill conversation. It's worth noting that none of that is because he particularly hates anyone or is that mean - he just [[Fish Out of Water|has zero social skills]].
* Seijuro Shin from ''[[Eyeshield 21]]''.
** Dakichi Komusubi can also be considered one since he rarely says anything beyond grunts or one word sentences.
Line 99:
* [[George Harrison]] in the [[Beatles]] [[Real Person Fic]] ''[[With Strings Attached]]''; he had that rep in [[Real Life]], and in the book he's somewhat quieter than the others for two reasons: 1) he spends much of the First Movement meditating and trying to figure out God's plan for sending them to this strange planet (he ultimately concludes that God didn't do it), and 2) he becomes a [[Voluntary Shapeshifting|shapeshifter]] and is often not capable of speaking.
** Actually, [[Ringo Starr]] is something of a Quiet One as well, since when he's deep in [[My Significance Sense Is Tingling|mindsight]] he rarely speaks. Though he makes up for it because he often has to give long soliloquies to explain what he did offscreen.
* {{spoiler|Harpo}} from the ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]'' fic ''[[The Vinyl Scratch Tapes (Fanfic)|The Vinyl Scratch Tapes]]''.
* Andy from ''[[Calvin and Hobbes: The Series|Calvin and Hobbes The Series]]''. [[Lampshade Hanging|Lampshaded]] by Socrates:
{{quote|(trying to find Andy) "Well, [he] was never the talkative one. Admittedly, [[Character Development|he's gotten better]] [[Medium Awareness|this season,]] but...}}
Line 292:
* Applejack's brother Big Macintosh in ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]''.
** To elaborate, starting with Season 2, he normally only says "Eeyup" or "Nope"... Apart from two times, one in which he switched speaking roles with Applejack, and one where he was under the influence of the a Love Potion.
* Brainy on [[Hey Arnold!]] has only said eight words in all the series: “something”, “I dunno”, “Hi Helga”. “I’ll go with you”. However, it’s because his [[Vader Breath]].
