The story written for me is delightfully for my Dungeons & Dragons (cartoon, 1983) request: "A Challenge for the Acrobat" (G, gen, ~1K words).
It stars Diana (clearly!) and creates a scenario specifically to comment on a key difference between her and the others, that her totemic weapon of power facilitates an astounding skill that she already had -- had already earned -- back home, while the others are directly and newly dependent on their weapons to interact with the dangers of the Realm. That is, the others' weapons are metaphorically related to their characters; Diana's is literally manifesting her skill as a gymnast. In addition to thoughtfully giving Diana the spotlight, which I love, the story also gestures to my fondness for interludes between adventures -- those moments of downtime trailing connections to what comes before and after.
