after-party ♔ march

WHO || Wynn, any and all Knights not currently on missions (if you are uncertain if your character would be at the castle for this, ask!)
WHAT || Squiring Ceremony Afterparty
WHERE || Knights Headquarters, the Ballroom
WHEN || March 1st, 2015, 6:00PM [backdated]
HOW || Prose OR Actionspam

The "afterparty" is rumored to be the real main event of the night. A black-tie affair in the lavish, opulent ballroom, it is every new Knight's chance to mingle and meet some of their new brothers in arms. Of course, a couple hours are provided following the ceremony for everyone to change, do hair and makeup, and choose from the vast array of formal attire in the closets of the balcony "dressing rooms" located at the top of spiraled staircases on either side of the ballroom. A separate dressing room exists for men and women, and they include full bathrooms (with, thankfully, very modern plumbing).

The squires are usually among the last to arrive, and the ballroom is full to the brim with a fancy array of people, of all shapes, sizes and species.

Hope you aren't shy. They're all here to meet you.

Feel free to make your own open threads for people to come congratulate your newly pledged knight.

ooc; also if your Knight wants to get all gussied up, you can make a Disguise (Cha) check for how good they were at hair/makeup/stylin', etc! This goes for... any time.

[Stiles can't attend a party that Vi is at without at least saying hi.]

Hi.

[See?]

[graveflowers]

[ lmao i laughed so hard. vi however, doesn't get the amusement from brackets and just offers stiles a small smile. ]

Hey kiddo.

[killingtodeath]

How's mama goby and baby goby been doing?

[graveflowers]

Just keepin' swimming. What about you? [ she gently shifts to bump him with her hip. ]

[killingtodeath]

[He bumps right back.]

Eh, can't complain. Still kicking. Got myself a squire, so that's keeping things interesting.

[graveflowers]

Oh, do tell? All the juicy details.

[killingtodeath]

Found him on Andres, actually. He was- [Stiles snorts.] Actually he was having sex with this elf chick? We were going door to door to find people to help or get to safety and this chick lets us in. Her sister- Nyna, another new squire actually was in there with Matt. That's my squire. So we go back to sound the alarm for them and just...

Let's just say there was a full moon that night.

Anyway- the guy's actually pretty cool. Kind of a smart ass, but he seems like he's actually interested in learning about this place, so I'm just... trying not to screw it up.

[graveflowers]

That is... wow that is way more details than I was expecting. [ like... wtf happened on andres???? ]

[killingtodeath]

It was way more detail than I needed to see of my squire before I even knew his name. I needed to scar someone else for life too.

[graveflowers]

You're a cruel and capricious, god, Sir Stilinski.

[killingtodeath]

And that's part of why you love me. [He grins at her.] So when are you due, by the way? You might have told me. I probably forgot.

[graveflowers]

Nah, I don't think it came up during my temper tantrum. First week of June or thereabouts. Forever away.

[killingtodeath]

It'll be here before you know it. Do you need anything, by the way? Diapers? Rattles? Those weird things you hang from cribs?

[graveflowers]

Uh, mobiles? Those aren't exactly safe, actually. The babies grab them and choke to death and it's all very sad and deathy. I think I'm fine.

[ lmao she's not, but she waves it off. elena had mentioned a baby shower but ever since the clusterfuck of the grammy's vi doesn't actually want one -- not for herself at least. let everyone focus on myri, she needs them more than vi does. ]

Mothercare delivers.

[killingtodeath]

Mother what? [He has no idea what you're talking about]

[graveflowers]

It's like a Babies 'R' Us thing over here. I dunno, I just click things and the boxes show up in my room a few weeks later. It's basically magic.

[killingtodeath]

Uhm I'm learning how to use magic. That's not magic. That's just online shopping. Dangerous online shopping.

[graveflowers]

Technology is it's own form of magic, okay. I'm the pro here, I know.

[killingtodeath]

I'll look into it and see what I can find. I just wanted to make sure you were doing okay.

[graveflowers]

Yeah, I'm fine. [ one day she'll say that and it won't be a lie. ] Stop worrying, loser, you're like an old lady. [ collects stiles and cora to be her worried old lady friends. ]

[killingtodeath]

Yeah, yeah. Well, I should get back to my knitting, probably... You know- old lady stuff.

[graveflowers]

I'll be expecting a baby blanket. Now shoo. [ literally shoos him off the same way she shooed cora off. go be friends with people your own age that aren't sad and pathetic! she doesn't want them to get stuck with her, that'd be awful for them. ]

[killingtodeath]

[He leans down to kiss her cheek quickly before he complies with her shooing. Cuties.]
