Alfred is the king, Arthur is the queen. Despite this, Arthur takes up the more leading role in the kingdom.

Cardverse is an AU where countries are placed into four kingdoms that represents the 4 types of cards: hearts, clubs, diamonds and spades. Even though each country is assigned a role (ie: Kings and Queens), it’s not strictly limited to that "relationship".

The kingdom of Spades is very strict about this, however, and does believe that the roles are limited to the relationship. Arthur is very traditional in this regard.

Arthur is very strict and traditional. He can’t comprehend that maybe Alfred doesn’t like him, doesn’t like being cooped up in a palace, and doesn’t like being separated from his brother. He’s manipulative and fears being rejected.

Alfred is 19, Arthur is idk, older than that though.

The symbol of their card and status shows up on the inside of their wrist.

Before getting his mark, Alfred used to be a peasant who did I hard labor and loves to be outside and see animals with his brother, Matthew. Now that he was trapped in the palace, prevented from leaving or doing anything, he got irritated. Also he’s asexual, and not interested and kinda freaked out by Arthur’s advances.

Alfred used to be a woodworker before he got snatched up and dragged to the castle. It was a good job for him, that he loved, since his hands could never stay still. He always was carving something small back then.

Alfred did meet Ivan often, and they became close. They both loved sharing stories of the very different lives they led with each other. They consider each other good friends... or maybe more.

Arthur instructed a guard to follow Alfred around at all times, to make sure he doesn’t run.

Matthew truly believes Alfred is living a good life now. He doesn’t know about the awful relationship going on.

Ivan and Elizabeta are not in love, they are merely friends. Elizabeta is in a romantic relationship with Roderich.

Arthur absolutely sees Alfred as dumb and simpleminded, due to his peasant upbringing.
