Hi, hope you’re having a good day!! Apologies for the late response. Time slipped by me, and my memory is quite faulty.

The Aspect of Light is a rather… Controversial one, for reasons I’m sure everyone can assume. Fortunately, I don’t care, and I have a lot of thoughts on it. And I mean a lot of them. Here’s a sample!

Light and Mind are similar in the fact that those Bound to either Aspect have a tendency of wearing a Mask. The biggest difference between them in that department lies in Execution- Those Bound to Mind tend to wear a Mask as a method of Forcing Objectivity, while those Bound to Light tend to wear a Mask… By playing a Character. Separation from Surroundings vs. Separation from Self.

Light is an extremely Theatric Aspect. “Lights, Cameras, Action” is an incredibly relevant phrase, and actually quite an easy and effective way to parse the concept of Light’s status of Thespianism. “Lights” has to do with Light’s embodiment of The Spotlight, “Cameras” has to do with the highly important running theme of Perception, and “Action” relates to how Light players tend to safeguard themselves by hiding behind a Character.

Light Players aren’t bound to the same Laws of Logic that Mind Players are. This isn’t to say all Mind Players are 100% grounded to Objective Reality- their Logic is often inherently Flawed, Biased, and cast from their own Perspective of the matter, as is the Human Experience- what I mean is that the Lightbound can much more readily act in spite of Rationality and Logic. Sometimes the shit they’re doing just plain makes no sense.

I absolutely think those are tied into Mind. It makes total sense considering what Mind represents- Justice and Karma are often tied to some kind of Cold, Unfeeling Logic. Eye for an Eye. It just makes sense. No reason why that shouldn't be a Mind thing.
