after-party ♔

♬ Jeux d'eau - Ravel

WHO || Wynn, any and all Knights not currently on missions (if you are uncertain if your character would be at the castle for this, ask! this is before failboat left for chicago)
WHAT || Squiring Ceremony Afterparty
WHERE || Knights Headquarters, the Ballroom
WHEN || June 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.

[Deadpool raises his glass to him. It contains an Appletini. Because Deadpool is cool.]

It's always laundry day somewhere!

[isisagent]

I'll have to take your word on that... Without Woodhouse around to take care of mine, I've just been buying in bulk, and throwing the used suits away.

[meta]

Yeah, I do that too. [He pulls at his red and black spandex costume.] Plus, my costume keeps getting bullet holes and those are impossible to wash out.

[isisagent]

Oh man, I know. At least that red will hide some of the blood. Azerbaijani silk just does not let those damned stains out... That's the price of looking good on the job, though.

[meta]

So where do you get Azkaban Silk anyway? Got Dementors in your rolodex? And by rolodex I mean phone, of course. Who has rolodexes these days?

[isisagent]

I only caught about half of those words. Probably because I don't speak peasant.

Listen though, and you might just learn something; A) All the major routes of the 'Silk Road' between China and Europe, for like 1,000 years, passed though Azerbaijan. It's literally like, the Silk capital of the world.

And B) Yes, I have a Rolodex - his name is Woodhouse, and he's also one hell of a tailor, and an incredible cook.

[Deadpool stares at him for a moment, then hurls his coconut at Archer.]

MO! ATTACK MODE! [atk 10 which probably doesn't hit which is lucky because I have no idea how to calculate damage incurred by a coconut.]

[isisagent]

[Not quite enough - even considering him being totally caught off-guard.]

[He doesn't catch it (Reflex 5...) but he will pick it up, and stare down Deadpool.]

Throwing coconuts?! Well, I hope you like ants. BECAUSE THAT'S HOW YOU GET ANTS.

[meta]

[Deadpool considers that for a moment, then sidles up to Archer to take back the coconut.]

That's part of my plan.

[isisagent]

Alright, well - now this is happening.

[Archer winds up and chucks the coconut across the room - but with a Strength roll of 8, it probably only goes about 10-15 feet.]

There. I hope you're happy.

[meta]

[WELL HE JUST CRIT FAILED HIS DEX CHECK so in his attempt to catch the coconut, he.... trips and falls into Archer's arms. Or just face plants into his manly chest. So romantic.]

[isisagent]

[Having Conway Stern flashbacks. "He touched my penis, with his penis. Head AND shaft. Just like 'byoop.'"]

Easy buddy. Not on the first date. I think you've had a few too many Appletini's... Which, I didn't think was even possible, but...

[meta]

You threw my coconut! What did you expect?

[isisagent]

I can honestly say, not this...

[Archer pushes Deadpool away.]

And you threw it first. Who the hell throws a fucking coconut?!

[meta]

I was going for the fastball special..
