WHO || Wynn, any and all Knights not currently on missions 
WHAT || Squiring Ceremony Afterparty
WHERE || Knights Headquarters, the Ballroom
WHEN || Mar 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.

[Rose's brow furrowed, thinking back on her conversation with Wynn. She wanted to say no and yet, one thing he'd said made her smile a little at the memory.]

Not sure. He told me I had spirit? I still haven't decided if it was meant to be a compliment or an insult.

[In all likelihood, both.]

But they seem to take the formal crap pretty seriously. With all the mine oath be whatever.

[exuviae]

Think it was more along the lines of stating a fact.

[ At least Rose seems to have plenty of spirit from Amrita's perspective. ]

[She considered that for a moment then simply nodded, accepting that as truth. Let it never be said that Rose Hathaway was boring, that was for sure.]

I just wasn't sure if that was like, code for difficult.

[She may have only had vague memories of her life before coming here but frustrating people seemed to be something that felt familiar... especially the ridiculously tall, broody types.]

Ugh. [Resigning herself, as if she'd already had an argument in her head over this.]

I suppose a dress wouldn't kill me but next time we have to do the formal thing? We're raiding that damn dressing room of theirs.

[exuviae]

You are, as they say, on.

[ And oooh would you look at that, SHINY! Yes, Amrita has spotted a dress and is trying to keep a lid on her covetous desire because materialism is bad and being a total magpie is an impulse that must be violently stomped on. ]
