after-party ♔ june



Jeux d'eau - Ravel

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 || June 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.

[ NOT ALL MEN.

no rly. your charm does not work on him, girl, but luckily, he knows francesca is a beautiful creature so it doesn't really matter anyway. because he's not blind. he just has no desire to tap that. he comes over with a cup of coffee and a shrug. ]
I was the only one when I was squired. [ and he's been too lazy/busy/ambivalent to give much if any a fuck since then. ]

[ the text only specifies men or women, with no regard to sexual preference, ok. but, funnily enough, arden and i have had the conversation of its absurdity before...

but back on topic - she takes the coffee, glancing at him sidelong for a moment. are you trying to tell her she's had too much to drink or something, gus?? ]
I remember it well, actually. [ b/c why not? and she got a wisdom check of 18, so to her it was just yesterday~ ]

I don't. [ liar. he's not trying to lie, he's just being... gus. ] My mom paid someone to take pictures during the ceremony and the party like it was a bar mitzvah. She has the photo album next to her bed.

[ she chuckles a bit at that ] She's proud of you. Can't see how I can fault her there.

That's because you're not the one who has to play goh with her every Saturday over Skype and listen to her asking when you're going to give her little Korean grandbabies. [ his mom doesn't care that he is gay, she just wants grandbabies. ]

Maybe it's just because I've never been in the situation, but I can think of a lot worse things than an overbearing mother. [ but she laughs, b/c she really doesn't know. MAYBE IT IS THE WORST. but at least he has someone who loves him unconditionally, ok. ]
druidisms: (amused by ur stupidity)

She would happily adopt you, Francesca. She would be over the moon. She tries to mother Helen, for god's sake. If you let her, you'd find yourself trapped in a Korean family with no hope of escape.

I'm not certain I'm cut out for the family life, Gus. [ even if she wants it MORE THAN ANYTHING IN THE WORLD ] I'll leave your mother to you.
druidisms: (wee smile)

Must you? [ please take her. please. ]

[personal profile] socialgraces 2014-07-09 04:28 am (UTC)(link)
Now, when those little Korean babies come along, I will take my turn tending to them. [ and yes, she's just being a smart-ass now ]

You'll have to take that up with Helen.

I take it she's called babysitting rights? Or will she be the other half of this baby-making exercise? [ you never know... ]

Well Malina's already vetoed Janine's suggestion of letting me turkey bast her. [ malina is gus' bff. they were squired together and she is, in fact, whom the bear is named after, though she's been off doing ~things for a couple years. the conversation between the two twenty year old college kids and gus' mom over a decade ago had been hilarious. malina fell off the chair she was laughing so hard. malina harvey will not be gus' baby momma. it's all up to helen. ]

[ luckily francesca got a high enough wisdom check to remember who his bff malina is, so she doesn't get weirded out believing the bear was an option for surrogate. ] Lucky for you, it's not as if Helen's running out of time to make a decision anytime soon.
