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.

Neither am I. [Hello, does she sound British?

Which, she knows (thinks) is not what the other girl mean, so she doesn't say out loud. But it's still odd to her, the idea that even though this world isn't hers, not all the others are as similar.]

They have rides and games and... [It's surprisingly hard to explain an amusement park.] Cotton candy.

You mean like a carnival.

Yes! But permanent with more rides, I guess.

Do they have racing?

Depends, I guess. They probably have car racing in Daytona. [She makes a face, NASCAR is gross.]

I meant like speeders. Or ships.

[Sorry what?]

Sure.

Have you ever rode one?

Nope. Not that I recall.

I've yet to see a space worthy ship on this whole planet.

[Oh, space ships. Well, she still doesn't care much, actually.]

I don't think we've got the technology for that yet.

Why does that not surprise me.

'cause you've tried googling on your phone in bed and the service here sucks?

[How are the two related, you ask, well, if they've got spaceships, Lila would hope they've have really great cell service.]

Tried what?

[Sorry, but what?]

Seriously?

New here. Remember?

Yeah, new, not completely devoid of modern convenience. You know what showers are right?

We called them freshers.

Huh. That's... fairly accurate.

[Whatever, she still thinks your lack of google knowledge is super weird.]

We pride ourselves on accuracy.

Who is we? [As much as she is loathe to admit it, her interest is piqued.]

I just sort of meant a general 'we'. I guess everyone who inherits my home universe. As weird as that sounds.

Weird has started meaning new things here.

Kinda noticed that.

Yeah well... [Her tone lends to the idea that the rest of the sentence could have been: as much as I would love to continue this stimulating conversation... I'm bored. She stands up and leaves her empty glass at the table.] I have to go see a girl about some jewelry she owes me.
