what is light's deal regarding luck? vriska seems to deal heavily in luck, but do rose or aranea really all that much?
Luck and Fortune are related to Light, it’s just a thing that’s tied to it. You could say relevant outcomes could be considered fortunate, or how sometimes what needs to happen seems to do so by chance. But Luck doesn’t exactly matter does it? Terezi tossed her Coin, and there was only going to be a single outcome- The one that favored Vriska. A stroke of luck, a fated roll, no variable could ever change the immutable fact that Vriska was too lucky to lose a Toin Coss. And yet? It didn’t serve a purpose, because the true deciding factor of the Timeline, was what Terezi would do. “You make your own Luck.” While a thing of substance in the Setting of Homestuck, when dealing with inevitability, is there a thing such as Luck? You could play perfectly, and still lose. Because that’s just how Paradox Space is.
Aranea does seem to have a Lucky 8r8k at one point, but Rose is less concerned with Light as Luck. Mindfang WAS a Gamblignant though, she did use Light as Luck a lot.
