SUMMARY:
no one really knows where lucky has come from but they all seem to think he ended up where he belongs. every person knows a different tale and nobody seems to care to learn the truth. this suits him fine, for he likes to live a hundred lives.
what people do know is his story starts with a group of fishermen who brings him to the pits of row's end. a group of no-good, unruly men who'd decided to keep the runt of the litter. they gave him his name and reminded him what it meant. they taught him the laws of the jungle, the art of knowing someone that knows someone, and where to go to catch really good fish.
it's no surprise he turned out the way he did. the kids of row's end know, you either join the violence or live looking over your shoulder. it was an easy decision for lucky when everyone around him followed the same path. his restless nature and lack of respect towards authority meant he was more trouble than he was worth, but when his guardians were cut from the same cloth, you could understand why he remained under their care.
he didn't go to school and learned everything about life on the boat and out in the sea. he learned how to protect and he learned how to take. he learned how to fight to make ends meet. he was not raised on resentment but rather passion, even as the people around him dropped like flies. this was their island. they should be celebrated.
when the du bois called, he saw it was a new beginning. with this came the promise of a better life, for change. and what a perfect fit was lucky, who'd been nothing but a stray looking for a new home. as a son of rebellion, he believes in the revolution. at this point, and he doesn't even know it yet, he is willing to do anything to impress the du bois family and climb the ranks.
TDLR: not a great guy but really loves fish. he is that weirdo at the back of the class who is hard to ignore and disturbs everyone, but you sort of miss him when he isnât there. emotional highs and lows, you can never trust what he says. motivated by the idea of a better life and reaching the top of the food chain. pretty cowardly, in the grand scheme of things. he fears death, he fears losing people, so acts selfishly. brain is simultaneously 5x speed of crazy frog and hotel elevator music. expect a slew of verbal abuse as a sign of love. a needy, rabid dog.
