Mr. Madoc Yarwood vs Mr. Julius Scrimgeour - Tybalt Kirke - May 3, 2024
27th April, 1894 — Hogsmeade Memorial Assembly Rooms, Duelling tournament
They were inching ever closer to the final bouts, and the men now seemed well-matched. This should be good.
Tyb ran through the rules – an unfun necessity of the thing – and bade Mr. Yarwood, the dragon man, go first.

Madoc knew Scrimgeour more by reputation (a mixed bag) than anything else, and was almost vaguely apprehensive about facing an auror—albeit one that worked more with his brain than his body. He swiftly cast a full-body bind.

"Protego!" Julius cast as swiftly as his wand arm would allow. He was, of course, confident in the strength of his shild charm; it would be entirely down to speed.

At Yarwood's spell, Mr. Scrimgeour toppled at once like a six foot domino. More obediently than a dragon would have, he was sure.
"The first point to Mr. Yarwood," Tybalt said, freeing Scrimgeour of his bind and waving him on to begin the next round.

Well that was... a bit embarassing, Julius had to admit. At least Yarwood hadn't gone for anything particularly painful or embarassing (the bat bogey hex was firmly on his list of Least Favourite Spells). Plainly, Julius needed to spend more time in the field and less behind a desk.
Shaking off his initial defeat, Julius cast lumos maxima—one could not aim if they could not see.

Well. If that wasn't going to bolster the wizard's confidence, frankly nothing was. This time, Madoc elected a disarming spell.
RE: Mr. Madoc Yarwood vs Mr. Julius Scrimgeour - Tybalt Kirke - May 3, 2024
Scrimgeour's vengeance was swift. And briefly blinding. (Where Yarwood's disarming spell had actually gone, Tybalt didn't know.)
But he awarded the former auror the point and forged onwards. "A tie-breaking round, then. Mr. Yarwood, if you please!"

A tie breaker was, really, a good thing. It spoke to the skill of both participants who, if easily matched, could have a great deal more fun than if they were not. Madoc's smile suggested he was, indeed, having fun as he moved to transfigure his opponent into a skunk.

Now that was more like it. With one less chance to win—he was less focused upon impressing and showmanship than some other duelists in the tournament—Julius moved to disarm his opponant.

Well, they had both pulled out all the stops with their last spells; it looked like a strong showing from Yarwood, but he was (sadly) not quick enough on the draw to give Tybalt the pleasure of seeing anyone become a skunk.
Scrimgeour it was, then.
