Gilbert hunched down into the taller grass and peered up at him. From afar he could tell that he had blonde? Hair and bright green eyes.

Gil assumed his hair was blonde he was so covered in mud and dirt it was hard to tell. He looked about 8 (maybe older and just small) and was quite obviously lost. Gil debated helping him. Slowly he stood up and walked toward him.

Gilbert stood in front of him the boy and him were both were silent as they studied each other. He observed the boy and as he looked at him he switched to using his ability and found as much as he could.

His name was Arthur, he was nine years old, he was a 3 and he would be the...Queen of Spades. If that was right that would mean... As a Joker was this one his responsibility, heck they were practically the same age, he couldn't...

"Hello"

A accented voice broke him from his thoughts. Gil looked him the eyes but didn't answer, Not sure what to say.

"I'm Arthur"

Gil almost responded 'I know' but stopped himself before it was given away. He held out his hand and responded after a moment.

"Gil, nice to meet you"

Arthur gave somewhat of a half smile and shook his hand. He looked around. Finally Gil said "ummm...would you care to talk Arthur". He shrugged and nodded and they sat.

Arthur told him his story and Gil shared his (leaving out the joker part).

"I'm sorry about your brother" Gil said.

"Sorry about your family" Arthur replied

They sat there for almost an hour before Gil remembered what he was doing. "So where ya going".

Arthur seemed to think "I don't know, any suggestions for me." Gil almost jumped for joy this was too easy he just had to get him to he palace then his job was over! EASY!

"Well there is Spades that's near here" Gil said as casually as possible. He looked around and then said "that way, I could take you if you wanted".

Gil held his breath and pleaded that he would say yes. He watched Arthur consider it. After a second he nodded "yeah alright".

Gil smiled took Arthur's hand and took of in the direction of the Spades Palace.

The way a Joker works is my own headcanon sorry if you don't agree. I never liked the idea they were simple pranksters and i do want them to have a defined role and separation from everyone else.
