Ludwig, what were your feelings for Kiku in the beginning? Was it love at first sight, or was it something else?

Mm... well, when I first saw him, my body went.. numb. I only saw him in passing while I was on tour in the Spadian Kingdom, and even in the one passing I couldn't stop thinking about him. When I met him proper, I felt sick, others thought I was struck with fever with how heated I was and how clammy I was. I don't know what came over me, and after the tour I went to bed to try to heal this sudden sickness.

It was King Alfred who came by to check on me, asking what happened. Did I eat something bad? Was I sick from my travels? I described my ailments and... he said it was love. I was flabbergasted a little, I barely knew this person and yet I had felt this horrible? Alfred said he would prove it, and arranged a meeting of him and I to talk privately in the gardens that night.

... He was right. I would give anything to see his smile, as the day I met him to now.

If those are the qualifications for a good significant other... why the hell are you married to Arthur then?

It was our birthright. You asked what made a good significant other, not a good bride. Also, that's kinda rude, Artie's nice and his ass is pretty good. Solid 7/10

Francis, what is it like to have your son back?

I'm over the moon, truly! So much has happened since he has been gone, and now with peace restored we can focus on being a family again!

... Well, we would if other people stopped trying to take him away constantly.

How do Tino, Lukas, Berwald, and Kristian view each other? Did they grow up together or..?

We did! There is a village high up in the mountains on the border of Hearts and Clubs, called Eisdorf, we all grew up there. In fact, we all left for the capital around the same time to be able to join the Royal Court, and it's a miracle that we were all chosen! They truly saw potential in all of us, not only in magic and strength, but they thought our bond made us work very well together in high stress situations.

Puts a green clover with a note on Alfred's desk and runs away, the note reads ' with all my love'

Oh boy a wood sorrel!

*munch*

Now for a sillygoofy question, and anyone who wants to answer it can answer it! If you could swap the official color of your kingdom to ANY other color, what color would you pick?

Red or Orange, because, well, it seems warm. But both of those are taken, for good reason so.... mm.

alfred you deeply unsettle me sometimes

What did I do?????

[diamantalia]

alright, now I want to know. King Alfred, what do you think of the other Kings and their kingdoms?

Alternatively, what do you think of your own court?

We talk about the others too much, I wanna talk about mine! My court's GREAT!

I mean... we're a bit lacking in some of our roles right now due to the population decline, but you know what, I'm optimistic! I'm still looking for an Ace of Spades! Our last one... well, he passed away some years ago and the spot has been open since. I've asked Mattie, but he doesn't think he has what it takes. I mean, I don't blame him it's a tough job. I respect his decision, so I'm still looking out for candidates! Pickings are a bit slim though, admittedly. When we open the doors up again, I hope we can get new citizens immigrating in can give us some possibilities!
