t h e C a r d M a s t e r You know Mel wants to dress up as a sexy laday~
^This. So badly. -shot-
It's wrong of me, but I want to see this so badly. xD I get the feeling that it'd be absolutely hysterical.
And as for the Tweedle matter, thank you for enlightening me, Card. xD I was always under the impression that they were arguing, thanks for clearing that up. I guess you really do learn something new every day!
Hm, King of Hearts? Much quieter and timid than Queen, possible (more like probably) scared of her? Check. Subtly works against her by pardoning those she orders to kill behind her back (Effectively, the /real/ 'power behind the throne perhaps?)? Check. Quite childish and juvenile when it comes down to it? (Or at least appears to be, like in the trial) Check. Pretty much allows wife to rule country for him? Check.
Okay, I guess that works. xD Promoted from Duchess to King, it appears.
Strangely enough though, the King of Hearts card depicts the king stabbing himself through the head...;; That looks painful.
And just a piece of history, the last Emperor of the Kingdom of Shu in the Three Kingdoms Period, Lui Shan, son of Lui Bei, is hated by pretty much all of China because he messed up his father's kingdom, and then surrendered prematurely to the attacking Jin kingdom which finally united the land. He's pretty much seen as a failure and a wimp.
However, some sources suggest that he may have been more clever than he's given credit for. These sources suggest that from just a small skirmish with Jin, he saw from the state of his own kingdom and the force of the enemy's attack, that he would not be able to win this war, and therefore gave up to the enemy kingdom, which was known to be merciful to those who surrendered. Afterwards, when Lui Shan was taken as a royal prisoner and lived with the Emperor of Jin, he was recorded saying that he was having such a good time that he didn't miss home at all. It is possible that he was deliberately displaying a lack of ambition so that the Jin emperor wouldn't see him as a threat.
After all, no-one ever sees the fool as a threat, right?
