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 || July 1st, 2013, 6:00PM
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.

[Andie comes out of nowhere and snags her arm.] Faye! I need advice.

[reallywicked]

[Only Andie can get away with yanking on Faye like that, and even then, she lets out a huff of annoyance.]

Okay. Never wear that color again.

[Why are you friends with her???]

[asap]

[Andie just gives a weak smile because clearly Faye's just kidding around (wis 2).]

It's about Thoster.

[She shoots a look across the room to where he is, so fast as to almost be imperceptible because she doesn't want him to see her looking.]

[reallywicked]

[Faye just arches an eyebrow]

That creepy old guy you hang out with? Please tell me you've kicked him to the curb.

[Because if you're going to go for older guys, at least let Faye pick them for you]

[asap]

[Oh my god she needs a new bff pronto. She wrinkles her nose at Faye's description because Thoster is hot ok and not that old.]

....kind of. It's complicated.

[reallywicked]

[This... sounds like it might actually be interesting.]

Alright, spill. What happened?

[asap]

[She glances over in Thoster's direction again and sighs.]

He's just... look, he lies to my face. Like, all the time, apparently. I didn't know until he came up with some stupid excuse about freelance knights not having a public ceremony and like, how can I trust him?

[reallywicked]

So... What? You caught him in one lie and he told you that he's been lying to you constantly? [faye is kind of an expert on deceit and that doesn't sound right to her.]
