I think that the anime assassination classroom might also fit the bill?

Concept: tabletop RPG set in one of those allegorical brainfuck high school settings where the educational system is a metaphor for patriarchy or fascism or whatever the fuck, except the players take on the roles of regular background students who are just there to learn math. The protagonist of the notional cartoon series they inhabit is a rarely glimpsed background character whose journey of personal revelation is inscrutable and often absurd to the player characters, whose own goal is simply to survive to the end of the semester. Each scenario is obliquely based on the premise of the current "episode", which is not explained, like everybody wakes up as bears one day, then next week they're back to normal and never find out why.

It could be for whatever reason but do you think it still happened at least once

Wait guys hear me out

Autistic Horace

Rigid rules and a strong sense of personal justice are like the character traits he was given in book 3 and 4! They're also really common traits of autism!

He also takes things fairly literally and is often seen not understanding jokes

And honestly? His behavior in the ward very closely matches how my autistic brother behaves when overwhelmed. And that scene where he tried to attack Tug out of anger from being left out also reminds me of when my brother "explodes" in similar situations. Because issues controlling anger can also be an autistic trait (according to my brother's last therapist, at least).

Halt is very autistic coded, yes, but why have I not seen autistic Horace headcanons? Basically every single character trait he has aligns with autism symptoms!!

continuing to read the tournament of gorlan and this is the funniest shit i ever read. generational fumble on halt's part. poor dude he's only like nineteen at this point and it shows. he should be at the club

Rodney: Will and Horace got into a fight.  Halt: That’s bad.  Halt:  Halt: Did Will win?

Excuse me but how do rangers train their apprentices to sleep lightly? To wake up to the slightest suspicious noise? And to immediately go into fight mode too.

Was Halt Will’s living sleep paralysis demon during his apprenticeship is what I’m asking
