#Ok so this one is ordained to be a Chaos Magnet but when that is combined with this Average Guy and then you add The Catalyst

Ok but also- Not the Angst Goblin in me wanting to add something fucked up to the joke idea like "Would Danny's Portal Accident/ witnessing the death and undeath of a close personal friend/one of his closest personal friends basically being REQUIRED to die to prevent Worse Stuff from happening count as something that'd fall under "trouble magnet stuff" Even if technically it actually didn't go Too Bad for Danny considering (and also sidenote, by comic book trope logic would that therefore make Danny's half-death him getting fridge'd in the plot of Tucker's life except with the bonus twist of “actually screw you the fridged best friend is the one who gets the cool powers on top of it” )
Honestly, I find the idea of Tucker being cursed with bad luck so fucking funny. Like, imagine that the majority of mishaps and unfortunate accidents were due to the Tucker’s bad luck, but the idea of him being a trouble magnet just. Didn’t cross their minds. If anything, everyone from Danny’s circle of friends, acquaintances and (fre)enemies believes that it is Danny who’s cursed with shitty luck because of all the bullshit he and his (relatively) happy band of clowns get involved with.
And then Tucker leaves for vacation with his parents for a week, and it’s the quietest Amity Park has ever been. No ghosts, no natural disasters, no creepy circuses with their sicko ringmasters; the sun is shining and birds are chirping, the school is less horrible than usual, Vlad is on some sort of business trip and left the town, Sam’s mother decided to leave her alone for a change and Danny even gets enough sleep at night! They’re thriving, man!
Tucker, meanwhile, is locked in a twisted survival horror with only his beret for a company and is having a horrible week. Afterwards it was assumed that it’s because some kind of creature akin to Youngblood followed him to make his life a living hell, therefore Sam, Danny and Tucker decided to stick together as much as possible to prevent it from happening again. And the cycle continues.
