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.

That makes two of us. [The gauntlet has been thrown obvs.]
bittersweeter: (♔ princess)

[personal profile] bittersweeter 2014-03-12 05:30 am (UTC)(link)
I look cuter. [ her disguise is 13, this is fact, yo. ] Did you miss the memo? [ about the red, but he can take it anyway he wants, frankly. she's a good boo like that. ]

[personal profile] ex_noble101 2014-03-12 05:57 am (UTC)(link)
[He wouldn't have argued it either way. It's called being classy as fuck tyvm.]

It would appear so. [The fact that he even knows what a memo is is kind of a huge deal in its own right. So this is what it feels like to have a normal conversation with someone. He takes a brief glance around the crowd behind her, before adopting a little smirk.]

Probably for the best, really. My butt looks better in blue. [Bitch I'm fabulous.]
bittersweeter: (♔ sipping)

[personal profile] bittersweeter 2014-03-12 06:09 am (UTC)(link)
Probably looks better in nothing at all too. [ just saying. she looks at him innocently over the rim of her glass as she takes a sip. so brazen. ]

[personal profile] ex_noble101 2014-03-13 12:09 am (UTC)(link)
And now that I've been thoroughly objectified, [Note that this was not a complaint,] my name's Aedan.

[personal profile] bittersweeter 2014-03-13 01:26 am (UTC)(link)
Lila. [ she wiggles her fingers like helllllllo. ] So are you new or just antisocial?

[personal profile] ex_noble101 2014-03-13 01:32 am (UTC)(link)
Well, it's a pleasure to meet you, Lila.

[For the both of them, apparently. Let it never be said that manners didn't matter.]

And, to answer your question, neither actually.
bittersweeter: (♔ listening)

[personal profile] bittersweeter 2014-03-13 01:42 am (UTC)(link)
How come I haven't seen you around? [ well, maybe she has, he looks vaguely familiar, like maybe she passed him at desk duty once or twice, but she has a damn fine memory and she can't... remember him. or his ass. ]

[personal profile] ex_noble101 2014-03-14 12:10 am (UTC)(link)
Perhaps you haven't been looking hard enough.

[Or he was just being Ariel trying not to comb his hair with forks where other people could see him. Same shit.]
bittersweeter: (♔ hbic)

[personal profile] bittersweeter 2014-03-14 05:27 am (UTC)(link)
That's fair. [ she usually has her face stuck into her phone getting bf time because she's super duper needy, surprise. ] Soo... knight, squire, random hot dude hanging around drinking free scotch?

[personal profile] ex_noble101 2014-03-14 05:53 am (UTC)(link)
Let's go with options two and three. [Just saying.]

What about yourself? I think it's fairly obvious the last one doesn't apply in your case. After all, you're drinking-- [He glances. What the hell was that, anyway?] ...something pink. [And therefore not scotch. Obviously.]
bittersweeter: (♔ hbic)

[personal profile] bittersweeter 2014-03-14 06:17 am (UTC)(link)
I also am not a dude. It's vodka and pink lemonade. [ and pm the only thing she will drink. so she drinks it a lot. all the vodka.

[personal profile] ex_noble101 2014-03-15 03:16 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, there's also that. [;p]

I'll have to give it a try sometime. [I don't think he's tried pink lemonade yet. This could be a first.]

bittersweeter: (♔ conversations)

[personal profile] bittersweeter 2014-03-15 07:51 am (UTC)(link)
[ bam! she holds out her glass, wiping at the mark left by her red lipstick with her thumb. ] Allow me to educate. Sharing is caring.

[ more like sharing is caring when she feels like it but apparently she does so. drink up. ]

[personal profile] ex_noble101 2014-03-15 05:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[Well he's not going to bitch out now so he will do exactly that. It's like they're kissing but not.

As for the pink lemonade vodka, it's not bad, but it's not exactly suited to his taste either.]


Very sweet. [Which seems to be a common theme up in this bitch. Y'all add sugar to everything here, don't you?]

A lot sweeter than I'm used to. [Handing that shit back before it gives him stomach cramps now.]
bittersweeter: (♔ cute but dumb)

[personal profile] bittersweeter 2014-03-16 04:36 am (UTC)(link)
It covers up the burn of the vodka. The less alcohol you taste, the more you drink until surprise! You're drunk. [ this is a tried and true method. she takes a sip of her own because well, she loves it. yay! ]

[personal profile] ex_noble101 2014-03-16 04:58 am (UTC)(link)
And how many does that make tonight? [Not that he's judging. These events were supposed to be fun. He's more curious how many drinks it took to grant her the courage to come and stick her hand down the back of his pants.]
bittersweeter: (smug 6)

[personal profile] bittersweeter 2014-03-16 05:00 am (UTC)(link)
Just the one. [ sweet smile. ] I'm just getting started.

[personal profile] ex_noble101 2014-03-16 05:56 am (UTC)(link)
[Color him impressed.]

I'm beginning to get the impression that there's never a dull moment with you around.
bittersweeter: (♔ adorable)

[personal profile] bittersweeter 2014-03-16 06:05 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, never. [ she drums her gloved fingers against the glass before tossing back the rest of it like a champ. but ukw, she's russian(-american), that's how she rolls. ] I like my life to have a little excitement.

[personal profile] ex_noble101 2014-03-16 03:48 pm (UTC)(link)
A sentiment we both share. Perhaps you'll do me the honor of introducing me to some excitement around here in the near future.

[He wasn't trying to be suggestive, but it probably sounded that way. And he wasn't exactly fumbling over himself to clear as much up.]
bittersweeter: (♔ boyfriend)

[personal profile] bittersweeter 2014-03-21 10:59 pm (UTC)(link)
[ oh aedan, oh. she grins, pleased. ] Oh I will definitely. As soon as I can find something...

[ like faye's birthday. ]

[personal profile] ex_noble101 2014-03-21 11:16 pm (UTC)(link)
I look forward to it.

[If she asks him to jump out of a cake tho...]
bittersweeter: (happiness 7)

[personal profile] bittersweeter 2014-03-21 11:24 pm (UTC)(link)
[ idk he'd look awful pretty all covered in frosting... ]

I'll let you know. [ but she turns and she's peacing out to go, idk sext sylar. ] Later gator.
