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 none of you are 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.

[His eyes stray out along the dance floor as he absorbs the compliment. It was rare that he got one that wasn't accompanied by sarcasm and detriments to his character and talents. Not that his character hadn't been something to scorn before in the eyes of most, but he wasn't up for nit-picking.]

There does seem to be a lot of people out there doing this line of work that don't seem particularly...ready for it. [His thoughts stray to Vanille and how quickly she had fled the mission. And to Myri, for a brief moment.]

That's why there's a squiring period to begin with. Takes some of the pressure of commitment off, but makes people really think about whether this life's gonna work for 'em.

It doesn't mesh with everybody.

I wouldn't wanna be one of those people it didn't work for. That'd be one helluva boring life.

[nepotistic]

You and me, both.
