[ do you want to build a SNOWMAN??? well, daisuke and naegi doesn't have a choice because they're partaking in the charity drive and they were tasked into building one so here they are! naegi is in the process of packing up a snowball so they can start rolling it when he suddenly remembers something ]
... you know, I just recently remembered l that I got accepted in Hope's Peak because my talent was "good luck".
[ remember that school he told daisuke about? the school of elites? ]
[ Daisuke is also working on making big snowballs. Building a snowman is easy, but Daisuke doesn't think this is such a simple task (there could be something hidden?? who knows), so they gotta go the extra mile.
[ he sighs as he just keeps packing his snowball. while daisuke is making 193729 snowballs, he's making all of his super strong and durable so they will take a good kick and still stay strong ]
Kyouko remembered being the Super High School Level Detective and Kaguya was the Super High School Level Swordswoman. Compared to those two, good luck doesn't even sound like a talent...
[ there's shsl heir but even that sounds better than good luck... ]
I can imagine it... if they were something like a duo it would be like: "the extremely intelligent detective partners up with a very skilled swordswoman, and together, nothing can stop them"! ... Probably.
[ Daisuke laughs a little before sneezing again. That laugh definitely bothered his nose. Why does the body have to be like this. ]
Maybe you did... unconsciously? I can't really imagine having something as an expertise that you can't control. I'm not sure if that can even be counted as a talent...
[ being daisuke is apparently suffering... will he ever get over this cold?? ]
Yeah, Kyouko, Kaguya, and Byakuya couldn’t really figure it out either... they said that maybe my luck could be tested if I keep guessing the right side a coin falls on or if I keep winning at rock-paper-scissors, but I don’t know.
[ naegi just gently places his rock solid snowball on the ground before patting his gloves to get all the excess snow off. he then fumbles to reach into his pockets before he pulls out... a penny. yeah, he'll just hand it to daisuke to let him handle the flip ]
[ Daisuke looks at the penny. It's a normal one. After a second, he flips the coin high into the air before catching it (he almost missed) and looks at the coin.
It's heads. He flips it again, but doesn't check its status. ]
[ naegi... is lost for words. he's just staring at the coin, mouth slightly open and the only thing he can say after staring at it for like ten seconds is... ]
... wait, so "good luck" is an actual real talent?
[ holy shit... 0.7%... hearing an actual percentage makes it all that more hard to believe. at first, naegi thought this good luck thing was just a slap in the face at all the misfortunes he's been facing throughout his life but if it's actually real and if he got it back as a talent... ]
So... does this mean I should go play the lotto or something?!
The chances of winning the lottery is 1 in 14 million.
[ ... He was desperate for money at some point so he looked it up, okay. But the sheer number was enough to get Daisuke to back down from actually trying to persuade Naegi to buy a lotto ticket a long time ago. He taps in some more numbers into his phone and shows him this number: "7.14285714 e-8"
You know you fucked up when you see the e in the calculator. ]
[ okay nvm. so much for abusing his talent so they can finally get some $$$ and stop being poor but he supposes that's not very fair at all... he'll still try though, probably get a ticket later today ]
But what do I do now with this talent? I don't think winning coin flips will really help me that much in life.

[ naegi takes back the penny, looking down at it for a really long time before he puts it back in his pocket. he guesses he should get back to work, picking up his snowball and now finally rolling it. he can make the heads while daisuke makes the body ]
Yeah... and who knows if my luck applies to things like that. Maybe it's super specific on what it wants to affect.
[ he might have to try and test it but they can focus on that on another day ]
Well, maybe my luck can help us with this event. Maybe Team Lucksacks can win a prize for the draw.

Like.
Really extra.
Daisuke looks up when Naegi mentions the good luck thing, before sneezing, because what. What. ]
Um... how does that work?
no subject
[ he sighs as he just keeps packing his snowball. while daisuke is making 193729 snowballs, he's making all of his super strong and durable so they will take a good kick and still stay strong ]

[ there's shsl heir but even that sounds better than good luck... ]
no subject
[ Because that would be really cool! Daisuke makes the tinier snowballs a bit bigger too before moving onto its face decorations. ]
Are you sure there wasn't any magic at all? Kyouko and Kaguya's sound pretty awesome too...
no subject
[ ANOTHER SIGH he wishes he had reality warping magic because that would be really useful but nah, he gets none of that... ]
And right? Kyouko and Kaguya's talents are really cool! I can definitely see Kyouko being a detective, solving cases and stopping bad guys.

[ ... then a pause ]
... want to play rock-paper-scissors?
no subject
Naegi mentioned Byakuya. Oh. It's weird having his boss know Naegi for some reason. Anyway. ]
Do you want me to try and keep you from winning to test your luck?
no subject
Yeah, or just maybe we can just flip a coin as well and see how many times I get it right. Anything luck based.
no subject
[ ... ]
Let's go with a coin flip.
[ He finishes making his second snowman head. ]
no subject
Here. I'll guess... heads.
[ because why not ]
no subject
It's heads. He flips it again, but doesn't check its status. ]
Heads or tails?
no subject
... Heads?
no subject
He sneezes, and the penny drops to the ground.
It's heads. ]
no subject
... does that count?
no subject
[ Daisuke picks it up and flips it again. It's heads. Flips again Heads again. Flip. Heads. Flip. Heads.
Daisuke looks down at the coin like what the fuck just happened. ]
... It's not a rigged coin.
no subject
... I'll guess tails this time?
[ maybe that'll really determine if it's based on his luck or if this coin really likes landing on heads ]
no subject
[ Daisuke flips the coin high in the air--the sun is blinding so the coin hits his head and lands on the ground again.
It's tails. ]
no subject
... wait, so "good luck" is an actual real talent?
[ WHAT ]
no subject
If I remember it right from school, the chances of you getting them right in all seven flips is 0.7%...
no subject
So... does this mean I should go play the lotto or something?!

no subject
[ He gives Naegi back the penny and goes back to making snowman bodies. ]
... Something about being in the right place at the right time? I think that's useful. Though I guess "right" sounds subjective...
no subject
Yeah... and who knows if my luck applies to things like that. Maybe it's super specific on what it wants to affect.
