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 || May 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.

Shadowkind rights, mostly. [her expression goes a bit disgusted] Which is gettin' to be more important than ever. I still think about that bollocks in New York last summer and cringe.

[clarkfuckingkent]

Yeah that was... [He still regrets not doing anything. So many people died during that mess.]

[sakurasmile]

Awful. Disgustin'. But the best anyone can do right now is prevent it from happenin' again, and that's why I'm here. [she smiles a bit.]

[clarkfuckingkent]

Sounds like you've got it all figured out.

[sakurasmile]

Oh, aye. I may be flighty, but I know what I want.

[clarkfuckingkent]

I'm glad somebody does. [Clark has a vague idea. But not much more.]

[sakurasmile]

[she reaches up to pat his face. because she's forward like that.] Confident boy like you doesn't know what he wants? I don't believe it.

[clarkfuckingkent]

[He makes a slight face at the pat, but doesn't seem all that disgruntled by it. He gives a half hearted shrug.]

I think there's a lot about me that might be surprising.

[sakurasmile]

[her eyebrows go waaay up, and she beams in a maddeningly charming way (charm 19).] Don't make me die of curiosity now. That's just impolite.

[clarkfuckingkent]

I'm not exactly used to this- working with people. I've always done better on my own or with just a few close friends.

[sakurasmile]

Well, it's not as if they send the entire army out, yeah? You'll just have to make a lot of new close friends.

[it doesn't work that way, kyomi.]

[clarkfuckingkent]

Yeah, guess so. [He sounds so unsure.]

[sakurasmile]

[she can tell, bro.] You sound so convinced, love.

[clarkfuckingkent]

I guess I'm just still getting used to this whole idea.

[sakurasmile]

Aye. You sound like they kidnapped you at gunpoint.

[clarkfuckingkent]

[He glances down, shaking his head and laughing slightly.]

Not exactly. I've just always been more of a close to home kind of guy.
