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 || September 6th, 2014, 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.

Fine. [ and she lowers her biscotti and grabs the first guy in an adjacent area... which is will graham ] Hi! [ she gives him a little wave and a big smile ] Cordelia Chase. Would you mind answering a question for me? On a scale of one to evil, where would you rank this guy?

[mydesigns]

[WILL JUST CAME FOR THE FOOD. why is a teenage girl interrupting his food???? why is he the patron saint of teenagers??? whatever, he'll just go with it.] Um ... [he glances over at spike, and immediately sizes him up with his magical girl empath sense motive. which ends up being 26 vs spike's 11.] He seems all right. [THAT'S NOT A NUMBER, WILL. whatever.]

[bigbad]

[Really? All right's all he gets?]

I'd prefer "extremely bloody heroic," but I guess I'll take it.

[mydesigns]

[he got a knowledge: castle shit 12, so...] You're on the long mission, aren't you? The one everyone talks about? ... You knew Elena.

[bigbad]

[Spike scowls at him.]

I know Elena. She's not dead. She'll be back.

[mydesigns]

If a doppelganger doesn't want to be found, well ... [ur not gonna make him finish that sentence, are you, spike??]

[bigbad]

It's not about that. She's our friend. She'll be back.

[Shut up, Will. He's done with you. He scowls and turns to Cordelia.]

Are you satisfied yet? Or do we need to take a bloody poll? Or better yet, ask Wynn himself?

[allaboutme]

Fine. So you've made one friend. Good for you. That doesn't mean I won't be keeping an eye on you, Mister.

[bigbad]

Fine. [Spike rolls his eyes.] Hope you enjoy the view. And for the record? I've got loads of friends. Certainly more than you, New Girl.

[mydesigns]

[don't butt in, will, don't continue to engage — ]

Are you bullying a teenager?

[too late.]

[allaboutme]

Please. He couldn't bully a paper bag. He likes to act all tough, but I've seen him get his butt beat plenty of times.

[bigbad]

[Spike turns and gives her a disbelieving look.] Name one time.
