after-party ♔ september



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!)
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.

[David's incredible wisdom score of 4 sure doesn't help clue him in that she may mean more to that beneath the surface.]

I'm sorry. [It's the most sincere apology that a person can offer. It's all he's got.]

Thanks. [She smiles weakly, shoulders relaxing just slightly, because well, it is nice to get it off her chest. A thousand points to Prince Charming.] I know I'm not supposed to dwell on the past, I just... wish everything was normal. I could handle all this if Rose remembered me.

I think it's hard to hold out for normal when we most of us aren't even from this world.

[But it becomes home, and he truly does believe that. Ever since joining, David's felt like this was something he was meant to do.] It's probably harder being connected like that. Have you tried talking to Wynn about if there's a some sort of magical way to... undo it? [A beat as he considers it further.] Is that even something you want?

I don't know.

[It's not that she hasn't thought about it -- she definitely has. But the bond is so one-sided, she's not sure if it's even her choice to make. And if it's Rose's choice, would she be able to get away from her Guardian mindset to make the choice as just Rose?

And frankly, Lissa is a little scared of the prospect of being without something she's come to rely on. But if she and Rose don't even talk then what is the point?]

Hey... [He steps up beside her and places a comforting hand between her shoulder blades, rubbing a small circle there.]

It's okay. You don't need to know what you want, but you have options. And if you can't talk to her, you can talk to me. Or someone else, if that makes you more comfortable. But you aren't alone in this.

[Lissa doesn't mean to do it, but sometimes she feels this phantom pain like the veil is allowing her to miss the family she doesn't remember and sometimes a teenage girl just needs a father figure. So without much warning, Lissa turns and sort of stumbles into Charming, wrapping her arms around him in a pathetic sort of hug.

She's out of practice.]
Thank you.

[David is a bit surprised by the hug but after a moment of shock, he pulls his arms around her and holds onto her. His hug is warm and strong, something for her to lean into. He doesn't break away, just holds onto her because she needs it.

And maybe he does too.]

[ After a moment, a long one, Lissa gets herself together and pulls back, reaching up to smooth her hair back into her ponytail. ] Sorry, that was... thanks.

[He steps back as she does and lets his arms fall to his sides.]

You're welcome. [And his smile should banish any need for an apology, because that's just silly.] Do you want to go back?

[ she nods, still slightly embarrassed by her reaction. but she really did need a hug. and david is such a sweetheart. ] Yeah, we probably should.

Come on... [And he leads her back in and is a total gentleman about it.]
