Now that was an original take on the Card!verse or should I call it Spades!verse, because these stories usually focus on Arthur and Alfred. Gilbert is always the Joker too, heh. Anyway, having Peter be the next Joker is certainly a novel concept, as is having the Joker card be a useful/neutral asset to all four kingdoms. This is shaping up to be a pretty interesting universe. Mind you, I get that this is a one-shot, however you outlined Peter's future pretty well and even had him interact with Gilbert at the end to bring things to a nice conclusion. Alfred and Arthur actually raising Peter for once as well as having them each have a different relationship with him was not only something I've never read before, but it was extremely well done and believable. They make such good father's don't they? ;) So yeah, I really liked the part where Alfred got Peter to apologize to Arthur, it was one of my favorite moments in the entire fic. As was the conversation between Alfred and Peter about fears. Definately relatable. The fact that Arthur has people move the paintings daily just to mess with Alfred is hilarious, as is the fact that the entire castle is in on it for the lulz. This is a really awesome fic. Nice job, it's a great addition to the USxUK Sweethearts week bit. Good luck with that btw.

Thanks so much for the long review. :3 I'm glad you enjoyed Alfred and Arthur's different approach to parenting, I tried to get enough moments in there that illustrated how different and similar they were. This was actually done for Secret Santa, but I got the pinch hit late so it didn't get posted until Sweethearts Week, haha. OTL Thanks again!
