>>70288 Well. I dunno. Rose's power, despite sometimes giving her small glimpses of the future, is firmly based in the concrete future and the alpha timeline, and is based on her being able to understand and interpret information and see how all things come together. We can compare her with Terezi, whose sight seems to have a lot to do with doomed timelines. As for Aranea, well, she has the power to... heal people by discussing possibilities? While the purpose of her power seemingly is to help people heal and grow by sorting out their decisions and regrets by showing them all the different factors that lead up their decisions, basically helping them live in the here and now, it's still a bit of a stretch.
Vriska's power is even stranger, and quite a bit different since it is an offensive one. To actually know what the role of her power is, we have to know the exact nature of luck in a universe where almost everything is predetermined. It cannot be used to attack or intervene directly since it has no real flashy power (which seems to be a recurring theme of Light), it acts seemingly on its own and it is, at times, completely irrelevant. I believe that Vriska's luck simply was the ability to change her surroundings and opportunities in such a way that she would not stray from the alpha timeline. I checked the Mini-Strife Halloween ghost party, and I can't seem to find any other Vriska's among the hordes of dead trolls. So if I'm right, Vriska's power was basically to not die... until she HAD to die to ensure the continuation of the alpha timeline, thus making her luck completely irrelevant.
And if these are all correct, well, yes, then Light definitely deals with things that are objective, the alpha timeline, the now and the known.
