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 || May 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.

[ lmfao gar failed her spot check and decided that this was vi when she glanced over and was like WHY IS SHE AT THE BAR DRINKING ALCOHOL WHILE PREGNANT?!!!! and decided to come intervene and save the baby or something idek, but she quickly realizes her mistake as soon as her friend's name drops off her lips ] Oh dear! I'm very sorry. You look a bit like a friend of mine. I didn't mean to-- [ she hesitates, meeting the girl's eyes and reading her expression ] Are you um, quite alright?

[withasouvenir]

[ she offers a brief smile, shrugging to brush it off. ] It's okay. Violet, right? I've gotten that a lot. [ which doesn't answer the question, now does it? no. she doesn't know the answer, so she doesn't try. ]

[rationalizes]

Vi, yes. Have you had the chance to become acquainted with her?

[withasouvenir]

Yeah, actually. I ran into her in the Light wing and then in the firing range a few times. She's hard to miss, considering.

[ thea has a feeling she might be a little pregnancy crazy, tbh, because she was a little weird, but it takes all kinds... still only slightly more weird than someone looking like a long lost lance sister and definitely less weird than sara being miraculously alive. ]

I think we both had enough warning that it wasn't as weird as it could have been. [ and there are a lot of differences up close, nevermind the whole pregnant thing. ]
