WHO || Brantley and Felicity
WHAT || Romantic French date
WHERE || London
WHEN || September 14th [Backdated]
HOW || Actionspam or prose

For the date, Brantley is dressed more casually than normal. He is wearing a blue shirt and a black dress jacket, a pair of jeans with leather belt, and a pair of brown work boots. Though he has been on lots of dates, it has been a while since he went on a date and it is pretty hard to find a women who is okay with cheesy lines and his job at the same time, so he is a little bit nervous about the date with Felicity. Now, he takes out his phone and sends her a text.

I'm waiting for you at the front door. Take your time though.

Then, he waits for her near his parked Vespa scooter while reviewing his date plan in his phone.

The "afterparty" is the real main event of the night at every squiring, but tonight's party is a little different than usual - Faith has successfully lobbied (as in roped people into helping her decorate for) a Chinese New Year's party, or Lunar New Year, theme.  With Knights from all over the world, it was easy to get input from those who traditionally celebrate the holiday, and Wynn is all about the spirit of cultural unity.  Not to mention, the second of the 15 days of the spring festival is all about spending time with one's family and friends.  

The lavish, opulent ballroom has been transformed, filled with red lanterns, peach blossoms, kumquat plants, and chrysanthemums.    People are encouraged to dress in red to ward off evil spirits and bad luck, and avail themselves of the New Year's Cake, golden champagne cocktail, rice pudding, candied fruits, and the Tray of Togetherness.

As always, 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.
