Idk if anyone coined this already but I’m claiming it
I call the phenomenon of people defining autistic characters to their interests “the Papyrus effect.”
The reason it’s called that is because when undertale came out, papyrus was defined by his love for spaghetti (comfort food?). There’s most definitely characters that predate papyrus who were defined by their interests but papyrus is the main example of this that I remember because I WAS THERE FOR IT..
If anyone else coined this, please tell me because I don’t wanna steal someone else’s idea
