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.

[Elena orders a double whiskey and coke, and while she's not as a big a fan of the fire, it does the job it's meant for.]

You caught me. I'm just kinda in the mood to get silly.

[felidity]

Like confetti and silly string? [ it has silly in the name, so... ]

[doubletake]

Like drunk.

[As she snags two more shots.]

[felidity]

I've never been drunk before. [ THSI IS EXCITING!!!!!!!! ]

[doubletake]

Then you are about to have a very good night.

[Best influence. She hands her the second shot.]

Bottom's up.

[felidity]

[ kali watches elena do hers and then tosses her own shot back the same way, grinning as she sets it down.

...she feels nothing (fort save 28), but makes a face at the burn even though she likes it. ]

I'm not sure I can get drunk, I've never tried.

[doubletake]

[Since it's only the first one, she'd doing alright (fort 11) but she's not going to keep up with Kali if this keeps up.]

Anyone can get drunk if they try hard enough. We'll see if you need stronger stuff after a handful of these.

[As she orders two more.]

[felidity]

Okay!

[ trying hard is something kali can definitely do. when the shots arrive she wastes no time tossing it back, already mastering the art of shots. she's a very quick learner. ]

[doubletake]

[Elena looks suitably impressed, knocking back her second.]

Whoo.

[It burns so good.]

Now we wait a bit, and come back for more if we need it. Too many too fast and you'll end up sick and that's literally the worst.

[felidity]

Got it. [ she nods a bit, making a mental note. she would literally write it down if she could tbh. ]

Yeah, I don't want to be sick.

[doubletake]

Make sure you drink some water too. Staying hydrated is the best way to try and ward off a hangover tomorrow.

[Best influence? Best influence.]

[felidity]

Water, stay hydrated, no hangover. [ she gives elena a soft smile. ] Thanks.

[doubletake]

[She didn't really think much of it, but the reaction makes her smile back. It's a normal smile, which is frankly pretty rare these days outside of the company of a select few.]

You're welcome. Up for more dancing?

[felidity]

Yes please! [ and off they go to do more dancing and possibly more drinking?? awesome night all around, tbh. ~c'est fini. ]
