WHAT || Squiring Ceremony Afterparty
WHERE || Knights Headquarters, the Ballroom
WHEN || Feb 1st, 2013, 6:00PM
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.

Around six months, I think. Give or take. What about you?

[uncurse]

Couple weeks.

[uncease]

I guess that rules out a 'same time, same place' theory for how we got here, huh?

[uncurse]

Also the fact that we weren't in the same time or place. I was back in our world. The fairytale one, with Mary-Margaret.

[uncease]

Oh good. And I thought it was going to be complicated.

[He gives her a smile, but this is starting to make his head hurt.]

[uncurse]

I'm probably not helping that. I'm working off secondhand information, doesn't make me the best to provide explanation.

[uncease]

Secondhand from who? [God he's too curious about this whole thing now, but he realizes it and waves the question off.]

That's not important, I guess. If we're both here now then we'll just have to figure it out together.

[uncurse]

[ it's sad. she hadn't known he was her father, or even had him in her life for long at all before going to the other world with mary-margaret, but seeing him here, now, all she wants is a hug from her dad.

she can't bring herself to take one, though. her own boundaries are validated by feeling like she'd be overstepping his. so, she tucks her hands in her back pockets and nods. ]

We can handle it. And ... I'll explain. Sometime. [ she glanced back over her shoulder. ] Right now, I think we've got a party to get back to.

[uncease]

[He nods, disappointed to not spend more time figuring this out. But honestly, he's getting a headache, so it's probably for the best. So, like the true gentleman that he is, he gestures down the hallway that will take them back to the party.]

After you.

[uncurse]

[ she gives a thing smile, then moves to head in and rejoin the party. ]
