after-party ♔ july

♬ Jeux d'eau - Ravel

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 || July 1st, 2016, 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.

Oh really? Why natives specifically?

[does_not_sparkle]

I was a part of a band. A pretty popular one.

[likeababyduck]

Oh really? What kind of music?

[Sweets loves music.]

[does_not_sparkle]

Alt rock boyband. It was a thing.

[likeababyduck]

Ah.

[a beat.]

A fun thing?

[does_not_sparkle]

Oh yeah, it was a blast. For all the right reasons. [he laughed] and probably some of the wrong reasons too.

[likeababyduck]

[Sweets laughs as well.]

Everyone should probably have a few wrong reasons, every now and again.

[So long as no one gets hurt.]

[does_not_sparkle]

Keeps life interesting, right?

[likeababyduck]

That it does. Life should be anything but boring.

[does_not_sparkle]

One of my mottos, actually.

[there is a smile there. A genuine one, because he can appreciate Sweets and his small talk]

What kind of music are you into?

[likeababyduck]

Little bit of everything, really. I even went through a death metal phase when I was a kid.

[does_not_sparkle]

I think everyone has a death metal phase. For some it may last for a day, but everyone has one.

[likeababyduck]

[He smirks.]

I still listen to it every once in a while. Especially when I've had a bad day. It's cathartic.

[does_not_sparkle]

That is a very interesting coping method you have there. Though I will drift into broadway musicals for my own relaxation sometimes.

[likeababyduck]

See? There's something that works for everyone.

[does_not_sparkle]

I guess there is.

[likeababyduck]

[Sweets nods, before glancing away.]

Anyway, I should continue to let you mingle. It was nice meeting you, though.

[does_not_sparkle]

It was nice meeting you too. I will see you around.

[and with a smile Kiance will leave and /scene]
