Kodo (Inside the Sun remix) - Yoshida Brothers

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 || February 1st, 2014, 6:00PM [backdated]
HOW || Prose OR Actionspam


The "afterparty" is the real main event of the night at every squiring, but t
onight's party is a little different than usual - Faith has successfully lobbied (as in roped people into helping her decorate for) a Chinese New Year's party, or Lunar New Year, theme.  With Knights from all over the world, it was easy to get input from those who traditionally celebrate the holiday, and Wynn is all about the spirit of cultural unity.  Not to mention, the second of the 15 days of the spring festival is all about spending time with one's family and friends.  

The lavish, opulent ballroom has been transformed, filled with red lanterns, peach blossoms, kumquat plants, and chrysanthemums.    People are encouraged to dress in red to ward off evil spirits and bad luck, and avail themselves of the New Year's Cake, golden champagne cocktail, rice pudding, candied fruits, and the Tray of Togetherness.
As always, 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.

Ugh. Not this asshole... [Oh shit- that wasn't internal all. Fuck. Andrew just... really dislikes Edain. A lot. So as the man approaches, he cannot help but mutter those few choice words under his breath. He tries to fake a smile but it's painfully forced.]

Don't you have something to swing your sword at, Edain? [Wow he... does not even think about how wrong that could be taken.]

[ he affixes bo with a very outwardly lewd stare, fingers playing over the hilt of the sword he's wearing at his belt ]

Wouldn't mind taking a jab at that one.

[Oh we're off to a great start here. She levels steady eyes at him, with a smile that is very obviously forced.]

I hope you don't talk to your mother with that mouth.

[Andrew freezes, jaw tightening.]

Back the fuck off, you prick. [He barks the words out, mustering about all the mean look and harsh tone that he can manage (intimidate 17).]

[ edain's eyebrows lift high and he appears ready to laugh ] So he does have some grit after all. Why don't you ever bring that to the training room?

[She levels a look at him, no longer happy, though she squeezes Andrew's hand. Thanks for the back-up, bb.]

Look buddy, I don't know who you are, and I don't really care, but unless you want my four inch heel jammed into your eye socket? You might want to walk away.

[Is it okay to be incredibly turned on right now? Because Andrew is. Whoops.

He may also be grinning like an idiot because YOU GOT TOLD, SON.]

[ he hesitates, glowering at andrew, but appears to realize bo means business ] Fine, fine. Just having a spot of fun with Gatewood, that's all. [ he turns around to stalk off, annoyed ]

It looks like we have a different definition of fun.

[Said as she glares into his back as he walks off.]
