WHERE || Knights Headquarters, the Ballroom
WHEN || Dec 1st, 2012, 6:00PM SUPER BACKDATED
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.

[ ain't no party like a wynnefalshond party cuz a wynnefalshond party got... wynn standing there. it's what he do. ]

for finnick but also ota;

[eldritchweaver]

[ there's a wrinkle face elf snake man hunting down finnick. it's easy to see he's on a mission but if anyone wants to interrupt him, uh, more power... to them... ]

[65]

[ (disguise 16) finnick is here, lookin' pretty classy, just doing his thang. he hasn't seen myri yet, so he's kind of casually wandering around the room hoping to spot her.

only to find his stupid mentor person instead. 8( seeing how he's only really talked to hasmed like once and he didn't seem particularly receptive to finnick's life, finnick had basically disregarded him and decided he didn't need no mentor telling him how to run his life.

sooo seeing him again actually felt kind of awkward ngl.]

Looking for someone?

[finnick hopes it's not actually him so he can continue his pursuit of the v ... ]

[eldritchweaver]

[ no such luck broseidon ]

Actually, yes. I was looking for you, Sir Odair. To have a little chat, regarding your performance.

[65]

[isn't that always the way .o. ]

Really? I hope it isn't anything too dreadful.

[eldritchweaver]

Is that what you would expect from a review of the reports filed by the Dragon's Claws?

[dragonsclaw]

[ omg you guys it's a dragon's claw, start fanning yo'selves now. jack is classily sipping some champagne, when he's not sharing a few words with wynn. ]

[nepotism]

[ fred saunters his way through the crowd in a casual looking suit and skinny tie, yelling out when he sees mark and giving him a big slap on the back. the two of them look pretty friendly as they catch up over there. ]

[notaroundme]

[(disguise 13) Elena is here, of course, with a glass of champagne in hand and looking extremely happy. It's a good thing she isn't very shy, so come and talk to her.]

[shootfirst]

[ be prepared for a rare moment of rarity, elena, because you're about to get tackle hugged by kat. she's wearing a pants suit and not a dress, but hey, she still dressed up. it counts. ] Finally!

[notaroundme]

[She does her best to catch her and not totally get bowled over, but she still has to shift her feet in her heels to keep from falling.

She hugs back, though. Very tightly.]

Finally.

[She repeats the word, in total agreement. Having friends like these is...nice.]

[shootfirst]

[ she pulls back, waving frantically to gar who's across the room to draw her that way ] Soooo, how's it feel, being inside the clubhouse?

[notaroundme]

[Elena glances in the direction that she's waving, and once she spots the target, she grins as waves too.]

Much better, now that the whole speaking in front of a large audience thing is over.

[witchwoman]

[(disguise 18) Myri wouldn't have missed this party for the world. She comes up to Elena as quickly as possible (while still politely saying hello to those she hasn't seen for some time). She reaches out a hand to grasp the girl's wrist, brimming with excitement that the day has finally arrived.]

You were wonderful. How do you feel?

[notaroundme]

[Sorry, Myri, but you're getting pulled into a hug. She's excited.]

I feel great! No more waiting! [Big grin as she releases her.] Now when I tag along, I'll finally belong there.

[witchwoman]

[Nothing to be sorry for. She welcomes the hug and squeezes the girl to show her excitement and support.]

You belonged before. [She insists as she straightens her dress.] But it is a bit more official now.

[notaroundme]

[Yay hugs everywhere!]

I thought so, too. I'm just glad that everyone else agreed.

[bigbad]

[Spike comes over when she's more or less alone and gives Elena a small smirk.]

Look at you. All official now.

[notaroundme]

[Have a proud grin right back.]

That's right. I have my own room and Sir and everything.

[bigbad]

Don't get to used to the room thing. You're sticking with our mission, right? [It would make sense, seeing as she'd been there from the start, but he couldn't really be sure.]

[notaroundme]

That's the plan. [Which she looks pleased about.] You guys are stuck with me.

ota

[bigbad]

[Spike's here looking exactly the same as always (disguise 13) and poking around the alcohol table.]

[oftheband]

[ someone else is already here, pouring a big silver mug out of a barrel. punch bowl are for sissies. ]

What's yer poison?

[bigbad]

Always had a fondness for scotch. But I'm hardly feeling picky. [He eyes the other knight curiously, then he nods at the barrel.] Whatever you're having looks good.

[oftheband]

Ale from the Old World, friend. Yet to see this here Earth produce anything like it.
