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 || November 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.

Did they give it to you or someone else?

[ she assumes "they" will be understood as whomever made him. curiosity takes a slight lead. ]

[monticora]

Someone else. The only thing they ever gave me was my barcode.

[ He'd argue that the looks and his abilities were more from the genetic cocktail. Though technically they were responsible for that. He still didn't like giving Manticore too much credit though. ]

They give you yours?

[felidity]

[ her ponytail bounces as she nods. ]

K-A-L was how my file was labeled. One of the doctors added the I.

[monticora]

Kali. [ Alec nods. ] Could've been worse.

[ They hadn't even been kind enough to give them letters in his world. Just numbers. They weren't people to them. Just possessions. ]

Alec. She named me Alec. As in smart-aleck. [ He clears his throat. ] To them I was X5-494.

[felidity]

[ her head tips thoughtfully. she knows she has a number, bar codes generally come with them, but she doesn't know what it is and her brief perusal of her half burnt file that was found after the compound burned to the ground didn't have it, only the color coded doctor office stickers that spelled out the first three letters of her name. she has no burning desire to discover it, though she could just scan it with an iphone presumably.

hmm. maybe she will see. nathan would probably do it. ]

It suits you.

[ she doesn't specify which one, however. ]

[monticora]

That's what she thinks too.

[ He thinks his could've been worse too. He could've been Dick. No one wants to be named Dick. ]

This your world or did you pop through the Veil too?

[felidity]

I was born here.

[ SO GET OFF HER TURF. jk, her prickliness is obviously dwindling quickly in favor of someone having a similar life, however vaguely similar it may be. there weren't a lot of moreaus built and not all of them survived, she doesn't know a lot of people like herself.

she fidgets, seeming almost uncomfortable. ]

It's gone now.

[monticora]

[ Alec knows too many sometimes. Most of them decent, but sometimes you run into a few loose screws. Made that way by Manticore, but he's not sure if that excuses the behavior. He's always wary though. Despite Max decided they all needed to rally together after Jam Pony. ]

Did some tough chick with an ax to grind burn it to the ground too?

[felidity]

[ she points toward wynn. ]

No. Though I think one of the people who was on Andres could fit that description. Completely separate incident though.
