I don't know if I should be filling my own challenge, but I suddenly had inspiration, and I've been meaning to write this for ages, so... If it's not appropriate I'd be fine with not being counted in the voting, though.

Wow, thank you! I'm honored to be a joint winner for this round! And congrats to obabscribbler!

Since obabscribbler was so kind as to let me choose this week's prompt, the next challenge shall be Duelist.

Whether it's from the viewpoint of someone who thinks of it as professional, a hobby, a tool, or doesn't care about it at all, the point is to explore how the different characters feel about dueling. I thought it might be interesting, since while dueling dominates two whole arcs in canon (and more in the anime!), it often ends up left on the wayside in fandom.

Copy/paste of the guidelines, because it's always good to know these things: All entries welcome (but please upload them as separate posts according to the community rules, found in the profile page, not as replies to this one, and remember to put the challenge prompt as a tag to your post).

Challenge #004 ends on Monday, June 14th. I hope that everyone has fun with this prompt!
