WHO || Wynn, any and all Knights not currently on missions (brazil & nevada groups will be returned! if you are uncertain if your character would be at the castle for this, ask!)
WHAT || Squiring Ceremony Afterparty
WHERE || Knights Headquarters, the Ballroom
WHEN || May 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.

[All these drop dead gorgeous women at this party. Alec doesn't know if he really joined the Knights or some other secret society, but either way, hello ladies. It's a good thing no one is asking him who the fairest one of all is, because he would never have an answer, and if he did he would never say it.

Women could get scary competitive over looks.]

I am feeling more and more under-dressed with each passing moment. Hey. I'm Alec. Nice to meet you, how are you, and all that formal greeting thing everyone is doing all night.

Can I just say you look really nice in that dress?

[So many ruffles.]

[I see what you did there. If only petty jealousy was all that Snow had to deal with in the past...there is one memory that she certainly won't miss.]

Hello, Alec. I'm Snow. [She nods, a grin appearing on her face. His banter is rather charming, but for the most part, she can identify a ladies man when she sees one.]

Why thank you, Alec. [A polite smile.] You look quite dashing, yourself.

[He does look pretty adorable in that suit.

And yes- all the ruffles.]

[I surely have no idea what you mean at all

He always takes compliments so well. He shrugs his shoulders a bit as if he doesn't think much of his own look, but he does. He very much does.]

Afraid I can't claim much credit. They're the ones who brought the suit, I'm just wearing it.

[And enjoying it. Rare he gets to wear such expensive tastes.]

Been an interesting day, though.
