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 t
onight'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).
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.

[You know it's an exciting story when you can get Andie to sit all the way through it. Her eyes are wide and she's not even all that bothered by the whole talking at the speed of normal people thing.

Also she digs the hair. Redheads ftw.]


That is so cool. You are so cool, you know?

[It's a wee bit possible she's had a few drinks. She won't stay drunk for long thanks to her metabolism, but boy does it hit her fast when it hits her.]
moonheart: (don't wanna do without)

[ faith laughs at that, super amused ] Guilty as charged. I'm so glad you came! Some of the people here don't know how to party.
asap: (uhhh no)

[personal profile] asap 2014-02-18 12:21 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. I know some of these dudes are like, centuries old but they don't have to act like it.
moonheart: (and the lesson i must learn)

[personal profile] moonheart 2014-02-18 01:27 am (UTC)(link)
Let's just promise each other we won't be like that if we live to a thousand.
asap: (now I'm pissed)

[personal profile] asap 2014-02-18 11:32 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't think I'm physically capable. I mean it involves so much being still like I would actually explode.

Do you think you'll slow down when you get older...? Or just keep speeding up until you're literally like vibrating all the time?
asap: (this is just hair porn)

[personal profile] asap 2014-02-23 01:55 am (UTC)(link)
No clue. Dad's slowed down but he's really worked at his whole meditation thing and that's just not me. I hate it. But maybe when I'm old it'll be as easy for me as he makes it look.

[But she doesn't want to slow down. Even if it would make dealing with other people easier.]
moonheart: (looks like i gotta be hot and cold)

[personal profile] moonheart 2014-02-23 05:08 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't think there's anything wrong with being faster than everybody else. Seems pretty awesome to me.
asap: (thinking)

[personal profile] asap 2014-02-24 03:14 pm (UTC)(link)
It's pretty cool mostly. But not when I have to... interact with people.
moonheart: (Default)

[personal profile] moonheart 2014-02-25 04:24 am (UTC)(link)
Does it help if we talk super fast?
asap: (music in the tub)

[personal profile] asap 2014-02-26 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
Actually... yes! [Not that anyone can talk fast enough for it to make a big difference. But every little bit helps.] I usually watch movies on fast forward.

I'll start hitting up the caffeine before we hang out. It'll be fun to try and keep up!
asap: (kodak moment)

[personal profile] asap 2014-03-04 01:31 am (UTC)(link)
Awww! That's so sweet! [Andie beams, bouncing a little.] ...sugar's good too.
moonheart: (don't wanna fall behind)

[personal profile] moonheart 2014-03-06 02:02 am (UTC)(link)
Oooooo what if I poured one of those five hour energies into a Monster?
asap: (rotfl)

[personal profile] asap 2014-03-08 04:48 am (UTC)(link)
...that sounds like it might explode. [A beat.] Which means it could actually work!
moonheart: (i don't wanna be second best)

[personal profile] moonheart 2014-03-08 10:59 pm (UTC)(link)
We'll add a bunch of Fun Dip. Just in case.
