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 || April 1st, 2014, 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.

[ zero almost trips on the damn thing, carrying a plate that looks to be composed of a pile of cheese whiz, which was definitely not on the buffet table. ] ... Always with the damn cats.

[ Venus hissed, and moved quickly back to Mars' feet. Mars turned his head and could do little but arch his eyebrow and look at the tray. Instead of responding in some kind harsh word about watching out all he could reply was.]

...Do you have the muchies?

[spellfile]

[ sarcastically: ] No, I was planning to use this to glue my model planes together.

[charismapotion]

Would... that work? [ He looked a bit unsure despite the clearly sarcastic tone. (Wis;...5)]

[spellfile]

... They're sure bringing 'em in sharper and sharper these days.

[charismapotion]

People do amazing things everyday with the simplest of items. Besides, it could be like a gingerbread house for all I know.

[ He finally caught up!]

[spellfile]

Please tell me they don't let you play with fire yet, kid.

[charismapotion]

[ He had to fight not to roll his eyes, that wouldn't be very nice.]

I can, I just don't favor fire, so, but I choose not to use it.

[spellfile]

So what d'you favor then?

[charismapotion]

Lightning, It is a bit more shocking.

[ He flashed a grin, he thinks he is punny.]

[spellfile]

[ groan ] You write these things down in your free time or what?

[charismapotion]

[ he couldn't help a light laugh.]

Nope, like any great actor I'm strictly improv.

[spellfile]

[ s-so dryly: ] Straight outta Second City.

[charismapotion]

What's wrong with that?

[spellfile]

Not a damn thing.

[charismapotion]

Good good. [ he smiled some.] Should I let you get back to what you were doing?

[spellfile]

It's cute how you act like I'm waitin' on your permission.

[charismapotion]

..Err, that's not what I meant.

[ He looked a little embarrassed there.]

[spellfile]

Then maybe learn to say what you do mean, boy.

[charismapotion]

I really should, but you know people just don't wanna hear that. They would rather hear what they want to hear.

[spellfile]

They'll do anyway. Don't need your help getting there.

[charismapotion]

[ He picked up Venus then and gave a bit of an unsure look.]

Maybe, either way I'm going to be going. It was nice to meet you. [ Even if he was pretty sure he didn't catch the guys name.]
