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, 2015, 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.

Followed a man. Turns out he's bonkers. Usual story, innit?

[adamantiumed]

Not exactly groundbreaking, no.

[keptbiting]

He's an alien. Breakin' any ground yet?

[adamantiumed]

... Getting warmer.

[keptbiting]

Ran away the night before my wedding. In his time machine.

[adamantiumed]

Let me guess. You were going to visit the Wizard of Oz.

[keptbiting]

Turns out that bloke's fictional, pity. No, I stepped out of the TARDIS and instead of the space ship I'd been promised... I was in Wales. [ she cringes, making a face. ] TARDIS nowhere to be seen, Doctor gone. Rubbish time machine. Never going to be on time for my wedding. Jeff's gonna realize he's gay and run away with Rory.

[adamantiumed]

You lost me somewhere in there.

[keptbiting]

[ she waves her hand dismissively. ] So did I. But I'm here now. Silver lining. [ in a very obvious perusal of his body, amy's eyes trail over him before flickering back up to his face. he is a silver lining. ]

[adamantiumed]

Maybe more silver than you know.

[keptbiting]

Yeah? [ her eyebrows lift in curiosity. ] Tin Man or Man of Steel?

[adamantiumed]

Adamantium, actually. [ he'll hold up a fist and extend those claws with a rapid snikt ]

[keptbiting]

[ DIS FACE. THIS IS THE BEST! THIS IS SO EXCITING! SHE HAS NO IDEA WHAT ADAMANTIUM IS BUT IT LOOKS LIKE ITS AWESOME. ]

No way.

[adamantiumed]

Yep. [ he lets her see them for just a second but retracts them before she can ask about like

touching them

8'| ]

[keptbiting]

[ still this face tbh. ]

That's incredible. That's brilliant, that is.

[adamantiumed]

They get the job done.

[keptbiting]

I'll bet they do. [ idk why that seems vaguely innuendo, just amy's general tone. ] And me with only my looks and my charming personality.

[adamantiumed]

I bet you manage with those just fine.

[keptbiting]

I do, it's true. [ l o l so modest, she grins and gives a little shrug, tossing her long red hair over her shoulder. ] Feel up to a dance?

[adamantiumed]

These aren't really my kind of steps.

[keptbiting]

I'm sure we could make them your kind of steps. Come on, humor me. [ with a charm of 31, she's very tempting. maybe it's his animal magnetism. ]

[adamantiumed]

Alright, fine. But don't say I didn't warn you. [ he can't resist redheads i guess #canon

and with a dance check of 9, he was not kidding. ]

[keptbiting]

[ well, amy's best friend is rory, mr can't walk in a straight line without falling so she's used to this crap and just takes over the role of bloke and leads him. (dance 19) ]

You're adorable.

[adamantiumed]

That's not really one I get a lot.

[keptbiting]

I like to keep things fresh.
