Pushed away: Bananas
“If things are going well, something's about to notice.”
It fears good fortune specifically, treating any run of luck as an exposure that invites correction from above, and it manages the risk by keeping its life modest, spoiling the good outcome early, or declining the thing outright. A household running on hidden manoeuvre and quiet sabotage from birth onward taught it that the arrangement around it is not neutral but actively working against it, and a hostile arrangement is best not provoked with visible happiness. What it asks for is one good thing held openly, without a payment offered in advance.
It echoes Polycrates, whose luck ran so unbroken that he threw his best ring into the sea to give the gods something to take, and got it back inside a fish. The form implies a task: to keep the ring.
