Hello! This is my first script for GWA, and first real post (/ not comment) in the community. I discovered GWA a few weeks ago and immediately fell in love, and knew I had to contribute. So, thank you to all the creators and posters here who make this place feel so friendly and inviting that I can post this with hardly any nausea at all. I meant to start with something short and light, but, well, this is what happened instead. Writing this was a real pleasure, and I hope to have more scripts in the months to come.

Who can resist the romance of the duel? Two lone figures squaring off in a contest of honor, where life and death hang in the balance. This script uses that as the starting point for a story of friendship (and lust) lost and found.

You can find the script here: Script!

Sample:

I want to kiss your chest. Around your wound...

\Kissing* Does that hurt? Maybe you deserve it.*

No, I'm not angry anymore, I'm not angry. I want to take care of you. My poor bird. I want to make you feel good. Here...

\More kissing* Kissing on your belly... your chest... along these shoulders... up your throat... And here, kisses along your forehead, a crown for my lord.*

Oh, you enjoy it when I call you my lord, do you? Then call me your lady. Say it.

\Pleased giggle or purr* Say it again.*

Mmmmm. Then let us proceed as lord and lady. And if you ever forget -- your scar will remind you.

Although inspired by a vague picture of 18th century duels, this story is not rooted in any specific place or time, and contains essentially no accurate information. Except the word frizzen. That one's real. If you'd like to learn more about dueling, you can read the Irish code duello, accepted as the general standard in the late 18th century, here: https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/americanexperience/features/duel-code-duello-rules-dueling/.

For those who brave the link, thank you for taking the time to read this, and I hope you enjoy.
