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!)
WHAT || Squiring Ceremony Afterparty
WHERE || Knights Headquarters, the Ballroom
WHEN || September 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.

[Oh boy. One of those.]

The knights of this realm generally prefer the kind of Mustang that doesn't smell like a farm.

[twinfucker]

[wtf does that even mean....]

Explains a lot about the knights of this realm.

[Or absolutely nothing bc I'm pretty sure Mustangs weren't even a thing in Westeros....]

[theshameofcain]

[Sure they were. Who can forget that wonderful Baretheon ballad.

MUSTANG CERSEI. GIRL YOU BETTER SLOW THAT MUSTANG DOWN.]

So do you actually remember where you're from or do you just remember the horses? May sound like a stupid question, but I met a guy once who didn't remember anything except what he had for breakfast that morning.

[twinfucker]

Bits and pieces, perhaps. I know my own name, and that we were powerful and rich. I think I can muster up a few lunches and dinners as well.

[theshameofcain]

But no breakfasts? [Bambi, be nice.] You Veil guys have it rough.

[twinfucker]

I assume they simply weren't as interesting. No one has great feasts for breakfast.

[theshameofcain]

They should. I happen to be a big fan of bacon.

[twinfucker]

[I just looked up the history of bacon to figure out if Jaime would know what it is and it turns out it used to be a generic word for pig's meat. So Jaime looks kind of confused about that.]

They don't have bacon at these feasts? Ever?

[theshameofcain]

[She knits her brows.]

I dunno. Maybe on the cheeseburgers or wrapped around those little filet mignon things. Not a lot of plain bacon dishes.
