Y38 Duelling Match #21

[Professor Matt Alcott-Ward]

Matt had surprised himself by agreeing to help out during the duelling tournament. He wasn't a very big duelist himself, but he had often enjoyed watching the duels. Once the two competitors seemed to be ready for the duel to begin, Matt pointed them to their places before speaking to them. "Welcome to your first round of duelling. The victor of this duel will be able to go on to the next round." Matt said. "If you break the rules, you'll be disqualified. Once you're unable to duel, you've lost." He explained. "When you're ready, bow to your opponent and get started." Matt said, stepping back to let the duel begin.

---

The duel begins now. You have 24 hours from this to post your first reply, or face disqualification. Once both duelists have posted, you will have 24 hours from your opponents post to reply, or be disqualified. Ensure that you use the spell list for guidance on age-appropriate spells, and read over the dueling rules and points system. Duels will run until there is a winner or until 6 IRL days have passed, in which case the winner will be chosen by RNG. If you are knocked out or otherwise disarmed/incapacitated, or if you run out of points, you will lose and the duel will end. Have fun!

As an added note: Spectators are allowed to post in this topic once per competitors post, but are forbidden from directly interfering with the duels.

Juniper was still in shock and still sore from her previous duel. How she had pulled through, she had no idea, but she didn't want to question the dueling gods. Taking to the platform, she gave her former dance date a brief bow before raising her wand. "Incendio," she sent, starting off strong.

Ajaccio would've much rather facing Juniper or Lysander before they face each other, he always thought it was harder and he would feel less bad about losing when he did eventually. He gave a little smile to Juniper, this would be fun he was sure, but he definitely knew he was going to lose this. He blocked her first spell and then cast, "Diffindo,"

[Lysander Summers]

Lysander was still spooning treacle into his mouth by the time Ajaccio and Juniper's duel had come around. The effects of the slug-vomiting charm were long since gone, but the taste of slime still lingered in his mouth no matter how much he ate. He glared daggers at his former opponent the entire time, annoyed that he'd lost to her again. It seemed impossible, and part of him was hoping he'd wake up and realise it was all a dream, but it felt too real for that. He stood up when Ajax fired back at Juniper, waving his treacle-coated spoon in the air. "You've got this Ajax!" He shouted in encouragment. Juniper hadn't won yet, and there was still a chance neither of them ended up being this year's champion.​

Juniper quickly blocked Ajax's spell and then heard an annoying voice cheering him on. She rolled her eyes, not even giving Lysander the time of day, and sent back a jelly fingers jinx.

Ajaccio laughed lightly hearing Lysander in the crowd, "I don't believe I've got this!" he yelled back as he blocked the spell. He hesitated a little but with a flourish sent a slug vomiting curse right at her.

Juniper snickered at Ajax's comment before forcefully blocking his spell, feeling her braids move from its force. No way was she vomiting more things up. "You're welcome to just give up," she teased her classmate. "Stupefy!" she sent back.

Ajaccio shook his head at Juniper, "Never! You'll have to prise it out of my cold dead hands," he shouted in an over dramatic tone with a big exaggerated flourish as he side stepped her spell and sent back a "Furnunculus,"

Juniper hadn’t realized how exhausted she still was from her duel with Lysander. After sending a spell to Ajax, she felt her arms start to ache, proving too slow for her classmate’s retaliation. Feeling another jolt her chest, she was struck by the familiar, itchy and gross feeling of boils on her torso. “Petrificus Totalus,” she grumbled, trying to shake the gross feeling of boils.

[Simon Thorne]

Simon has missed seeing Juniper's first round of duels since he was so busy with his own. But he had finished rather quickly and hurried to get a good spot to see his girlfriend in action. He winced as she got hit with a boil hex. It looked painful and he felt a sense of pride as she stood her ground and fired back. "Keep it up!" he yelled and hoped she would hear him. She looked tired but he knew she was strong. "You almost had him!" he added encouragingly.
