Could you do someone challenging Clorinde or Jean to a duel for her S/O's hand in marriage?
[The streets of Fontaine feel... Extremely heavy. Y/N and Clorinde are hanging out, holding hands even. But it sadly ends with an admirer of Y/N that he doesn't even know, approaching him]
[He turns down the lady gently, but she keeps on insisting. Clorinde just stays silent next to him because she knows he'll dismiss it. But the very thing that makes Clorinde step in is when the lady grabs his hand, lifts it up near her lips, and kisses it]
[As Clorinde confronts the lady, she only makes the lady upset. Clorinde doesn't want to start any trouble, but the lady, even though she knows who Clorinde is, still challenges her to a duel. Y/N thinks it won't be a big deal, since he knows that when it comes to him, Clorinde knows he doesn't want anyone getting hurt and that he want the duel to end quickly. But then, the lady says the duel is for his hand in marriage]
. . . . .
[In a certain area of Fontaine, Y/N is standing at the center of the area, pinching his nose, with Clorinde next to him, resting her hand on her absolution sword]
[Across from them stands her opponent]
"Well? Surely the Champion Duelist won’t refuse something so simple"
M!Reader : Nothing about this is simple...
[She smirks at Clorinde]
"What? The reward doesn't seem to satisfy you"
[She then chuckles]
"The winner claims his hand"
M!Reader : ...I'm pretty sure I'm not something to be claimed
[Clorinde places her hand onto his cheek, caressing it gently]
Clorinde : You are correct, you are not a prize...
[The hand placement irritates the lady even more, not knowing Clorinde actually did that intentionally to back her off]
"Tch–Then let him decide. If he chooses none, I’ll walk away~"
[Clorinde obviously does not believe any of it. She knows she'll keep bothering him. So now, she definitely has to give her a warning]
Clorinde : ...That will not be necessary... I accept your duel...
M!Reader : Clorinde—
Clorinde : I won't hurt her...
M!Reader : ...The fact that you immediately assumed I was gonna say "Don't hurt her" scares me...
[Clorinde steps in, a few feet away from her opponent. Both of them place their hands on their weapons]
Clorinde : You misunderstand this duel, You... will not win...
[The duel then starts. Her opponent moves swiftly at her, while Clorinde just stands there. As she lifts her sword, ready to strike down]
[Clorinde easily sees it coming and without any problem, blocks her with ease. Both of them exchange stares with each other, with Clorinde giving her a glare]
[Both of their blades make a sharp, clean clang. The woman grits her teeth, pushing harder, trying to overpower her]
Clorinde : Is that all?
[The woman pulls back with a sharp breath and swings again, faster this time. A horizontal slash to Clorinde’s side. Clorinde pivots, effortlessly]
She backs up.
Another strike overhead.
Easily block.
[Steel clashes again and again, but every movement from Clorinde is always precise. It's not even fair at this point]
"Y-You—!"
[The woman stumbles back a few steps, frustration breaking through her]
"Stop standing still and fight me properly!”
[Clorinde tilts her head slightly]
Clorinde : I am...
[Before the woman can react, Clorinde moves. A single strike forward, faster than the eye can follow]
[The sound of metal echoes, only once. Suddenly, the woman's sword is no longer in her hand. It spins through the air before it falls onto the ground behind her]
[The tip of Clorinde's sword rests just below the woman's chin, making her freeze in place]
Clorinde : This duel, was never equal... You will not approach him again, this is your warning...
[The woman's hands tremble]
"...F-Fine"
[Without another word, the woman turns and walks off, her pace just a little too quick. Clorinde then walks back to him]
M!Reader : Clorinde, you didn't have to accept that–
Clorinde : I do...
[She answers immediately]
Clorinde : I will not allow anyone to treat your future as something to be decided without your will...
[She gently grabs his hand, slightly bends down, lifts his hand near lips, and gently kisses it]
Clorinde : And the marriage part, if such a decision is to be made, it will be because you choose it...
M!Reader : ....
M!Reader blushing : ....
[Y/N without hesitation, covers his mouth using his other hand]
Clorinde : ...Are you okay, my love—
M!Reader blushing : Sorry my brain just doesn't have the capacity to know how to respond to this...
