after-party ♔ february
♬ Kodo (Inside the Sun remix) - Yoshida Brothers
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 || February 1st, 2014, 6:00PM [backdated]
HOW || Prose OR Actionspam
The "afterparty" is the real main event of the night at every squiring, but tonight's party is a little different than usual - Faith has successfully lobbied (as in roped people into helping her decorate for) a Chinese New Year's party, or Lunar New Year, theme. With Knights from all over the world, it was easy to get input from those who traditionally celebrate the holiday, and Wynn is all about the spirit of cultural unity. Not to mention, the second of the 15 days of the spring festival is all about spending time with one's family and friends.
The lavish, opulent ballroom has been transformed, filled with red lanterns, peach blossoms, kumquat plants, and chrysanthemums. People are encouraged to dress in red to ward off evil spirits and bad luck, and avail themselves of the New Year's Cake, golden champagne cocktail, rice pudding, candied fruits, and the Tray of Togetherness.
As always, 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).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.
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.

Evening, lass. Mind passing me that morsel? [He's also here for the food. And the everything else, but the food will do for now.]

[Ugh. He needs a drink or 10. And some dance partners to remind himself that he's not completely terrible and worthless.]

Was just thinking that myself. [Once at the bar, he orders a double of whiskey.]

Okay. Let me sum this up: you lied to her, because you had to and she can't forgive you because, I dunno, she's a dumbass. That pretty much it?

[ there is your rude pep talk! ENJOY! ]

You're right. I know you're right.
[That doesn't make it any easier.]

The first thing you do? Is leave her alone. No more love letters, no more romantic Romeo and Juliet balcony interludes. [ hope you fucking remember that, thoster, in a couple weeks when you do... just that. ] Just stop. Don't talk to her, don't seek her out. If you're going to be a lovestruck teenager when you're around her then you can't be around her.

I appreciate you trying to help, lass. [Because he can't promise to follow her advice to the letter, but he will do what he can. And he does really care about following it all.]
