“There are a plethora of things," he explained, "but if I shared them you’d know what goes on behind Nate’s eyes, and I’d ruin it for myself."

Jacob also responded to a question about Nate's sexuality, saying that he doesn't necessarily think about it while acting as the character.

“I never really approach it in terms of sexuality. I always approach it in terms of family," he explained.

“I think the sexuality thing is born from his not having a relationship with his father, or not having the relationship he thinks he should have with his father and mother."

"The birth of everyone’s sexuality, in a way, I think, is based off of one’s relationship with their parents," Jacob also claimed (despite not being based in scientific fact).

Jacob also said that, to him, Nate's identity is "deeper than" questions like, "Is Nate gay?"
