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.

Do they even have anything that fits you here?

[He decides to pretty much just voice his thought without reflection. Given that he is more than a feet shorter, he has to look up at Dimitri, but doesn't seem intimidated by the height difference anyway.]

[likeagod]

Close. [Or if they do, he seems to have not noticed.] This will do, I think.

[He holds the pants up, examining them again.]

sorry for the wait, stress and sickness struck me down!

[smugfox]

If it helps, I doubt that anyone will spend much time looking at your ankles. Actually, with you around, I'm regretting spending any time choosing something for myself, I could have just come in my usual clothes.

that's been me all this weekend. no worries. <3

[likeagod]

I don't think that's true. We're all of equal importance here.

hope you're feeling better now ♥

[smugfox]

I'll try not to debate that, but the fact of the matter is that you're pretty eye-catching. Which is good, really, in case I want to start picking pockets.

Not that I'd do that.

you too o3o

[likeagod]

I'd recommend you didn't. Considering you'll be in a hall filled with people who are supposed to be your allies.

[Have a look, Reynard.]

I'd prefer not to be your unwilling accomplice.

[smugfox]

Would you rather be my willing accomplice?

[His face and the question both seem quite serious for a few moments before he lets out a laugh and shakes his head.]

Not to worry. We just swore to honesty and all that good stuff, didn't we?

[likeagod]

I'll have to pass.

[Don't steal from your fellow knights, geez.]

We did. I tend to take my oaths rather seriously.

[smugfox]

Same here, don't worry.

[Well. Not that he ever swears any oath. And he really doesn't take them overly seriously. So. He is lying.]

I don't think people carry much valuables with them, anyway. There's good food, though, from what I can smell.

[likeagod]

[He wonders if he's lying. (sense motive: 16)]

There is that, I agree.

[smugfox]

[Of course he isn't lying! Has anyone ever seen a more sincere smile? ...ignore the sharp teeth. And, yeah, he's not even really trying to seem sincere. Nothing like a bit of an edge of distrust to a new friendship.]

Seems as if we should hurry to get some, before it's all gone, don't you think? After you, I'm sure that's much more fitting.

[likeagod]

[All the distrust. Clearly this will be the start of something hideous beautiful(?)

At that he does nothing more than nod, however, and head on his way.]
