after-party ♔ february



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.

...You can't be serious. He's ancient. And bony. [And this is coming from someone with intense daddy issues.] Props for thinking outside of the box, though. I'm not opposed to sleeping my way to the top.

[personal profile] lastdragomir 2014-02-24 08:38 pm (UTC)(link)
I think he's handsome. [ not her type, except for the taciturn part, but still, very handsome. ] And I'm sure you can make your way to the top with other means.

I think they frown heavily upon assassination here.

[ snort of laughter, she coughs, choking a bit on her drink. ] I was thinking something less violent, Faye. [ SUCH FOND EXASPERATION. ]

You're no fun. [But she's smiling. Such a strange friendship they have forged here. Faye is not sure why or how this happened.]
lastdragomir: (smirk)

[personal profile] lastdragomir 2014-03-08 12:12 am (UTC)(link)
Visiting you in prison for murder would be equally no fun. [ just saying. ]

[personal profile] reallywicked 2014-03-11 06:41 pm (UTC)(link)
You could break me out. No one would suspect you.
lastdragomir: (not impressed)

[personal profile] lastdragomir 2014-03-13 12:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Well I have already done it before. [ yep. and you thought lissa was just a stick in the mud. LITTLE DO YOU KNOW, FAYE... ] I was quite good at it as well.

Now that's a story I need to hear[spill gurl]

[personal profile] lastdragomir 2014-03-16 04:42 am (UTC)(link)
I'm not sure it is. [ but she crit failed her will save and faye has become a surprisingly friendly friend, so... fuck it. ] It was Rose. Dimitri and I, along with... someone else I can't remember, we broke her out of prison. She was innocent of course. [ "but she does bring these things on herself" seems to be what's left unsaid. ]

[personal profile] reallywicked 2014-03-16 06:27 pm (UTC)(link)
How'd you do it, though? [Violence? Espionage? Just...talking their way out of it? Faye personally hopes they blew the place up.]
lastdragomir: (eyebrows)

[personal profile] lastdragomir 2014-03-18 10:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Something blew up, as a distraction.
reallywicked: (pic#3680389)

[personal profile] reallywicked 2014-03-22 04:09 am (UTC)(link)
[Much. More. Impressed.]

Should have blown up Rose. I don't get why you're friends with her. I'm guessing she was just as much of a bitch on the other side of the Veil.
lastdragomir: (too much)

[personal profile] lastdragomir 2014-03-23 06:59 am (UTC)(link)
[ POT MEET KETTLE. lissa shoots her a warning look that very blatantly reads "stop". and in case faye misses that, she will verbalize. ] Stop it. Rose is one of the best people I have ever met. Don't... [ she can't articulate what she wants faye to not do, so she just shakes her head. she doesn't want to have to defend rose to faye because it hurts. she can't call rose her best friend anymore, she can't claim rose would always protect her anymore. rose is more of a stranger to lissa than faye is. ] Please.

[Ugh. Seriously judging you for this, but whatever. Nobody's perfect. Except Faye, of course. Tossing her hair over her shoulder, she rolls her eyes.]

Fine. Whatever. Another drink? [She asks, but isn't really waiting for an answer. She's just getting you one. Oops.]
lastdragomir: (pursed)

[personal profile] lastdragomir 2014-03-26 11:27 am (UTC)(link)
Well you're not going to let me say no, are you? [ whatever, she seems at ease with and resigned to faye's bossiness. and maybe she needs more alcohol tbh. ]
reallywicked: (Default)

[personal profile] reallywicked 2014-03-27 05:50 pm (UTC)(link)
Now you're catching on. [She hands Lissa another large, strong drink while sipping on her own.]
lastdragomir: (pleased with)

[personal profile] lastdragomir 2014-03-28 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
[ man, no wonder she is a hot mess when max gets his hands on her. ] It isn't hard to grasp. You don't do subtle. [ not well, she doesn't say faye doesn't to subtle well, she just doesn't do subtle at all. ]

I don't see much point in being less than direct. It works, doesn't it?
lastdragomir: (coquettish)

[personal profile] lastdragomir 2014-04-04 03:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, but it's not exactly brimming with visions of self-control.
reallywicked: (pic#3407308)

[personal profile] reallywicked 2014-04-06 05:21 pm (UTC)(link)
I've got control of the situation, don't I? You're having another drink with me and I'm getting what I want.

[totally missing the point]
lastdragomir: (smirk)

[personal profile] lastdragomir 2014-04-16 03:01 pm (UTC)(link)
[ she huffs out an amused laugh, but she doesn't fight it. faye will be faye. she is like alice cullen, there's really no choice but to go along with her. so lissa just smiles and shakes her head. ]

[AND THEN THEY GOT BUZZED. AND GOSSIPED PROBABLY???

THE END.]
