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.

Yes, however call me old-fashioned, but I do think that tends to border more on the stalking side of things than merely asking.

[hacker]

I prefer to think of it as using your resources. [ Hacker problems yo. ] Or ... overusing. Stalking's such a strong word.

[cabot]

Well, either way, I've always found a direct approach all the more satisfying.

[hacker]

Funny, considering how long you've been dancing around just giving it to me. [ Beat. ] Pun intended.

[cabot]

[ he grins wider at that ] Well, it gave an excuse for the dance.

[hacker]

[ With a grin to match his, ] You need an excuse?

[valdrin]

Oh, I do like you.

[hacker]

You're just now figuring it out? I'll try not to take that too personally.

[cabot]

[ he twirls her once more as the dance comes to an end ] It's good to have one's suspicions confirmed.

[hacker]

Well. [ She drops her hands, disengaging as they slow, but not because she's in a particular rush. Rather, she reaches into her cleavage to wedge a phone free and hold it out. Yep. Classy af. ] In case you've got any other suspicions you want confirmed ...

[cabot]

[ oh ho ho~

he takes that phone and programs his number into it, handing it back with a wink. ] I suppose we'll see, then.

[hacker]

I suppose we will. [ She tilts her head in acknowledgment as she takes the phone back, interest lingering in her gaze. ] But until then, hey, enjoy the party. [ It's a little less daunting now, for her at least. ]

[valdrin]

I make it a priority to do just that. [ with one last cheeky grin, he turns to saunter off for another drink ]
