after-party ♔



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 || March 12th, 2013, 6:00PM [backdated]
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.

[ he chuckles, waving a hand dismissively as he stuffs his other in his pocket. ] Not at all. Her enthusiasm is... well, a testament to the impression you create, at least.

[Enthusiasm? Okay then.]

I wasn't aware I had such enthusiastic friends. I guess I should thank her for the glowing reviews.

Was Sir La Krail the only official Knight along on your mission in Paris?

[She pauses, thinking for a moment before shaking her head.]

No. Sir O'Keefe - Anastasia - she was there as well.

Hm. I might have better luck hearing an unbiased case from her, then.

[She nods briefly, before asking, more out of curiosity than anything else.]

Does Christos like anyone, or does he just wander through the world, looking to find fault in anything he sees? Because he is a real glass half-empty.

[ there's a tightness in his eyes behind his smile, which he tries to hide by taking a drink while he considers how to answer that. he smacks his lips together from the taste, before finally saying: ] You may be asking the wrong person that particular question. [ but he adds: ] You know, I was squired to him, ages ago.

[There's a part of her that probably should be cringing at stepping on that particular land mine, but honestly it's probably just for the best that she doesn't jump all over that particular revelation (will save 11). She covers with a sip of her drink, before looking apologetic.]

Sorry.

[Your relationship with your mentor is important, she didn't mean to dump her personal feelings about the guy all over him.]
valdrin: (pic#2488520)

[personal profile] valdrin 2014-04-04 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
Rather strange of you to be sorry. You're not the ponce in question.

[personal profile] allmydreams 2014-04-06 09:10 pm (UTC)(link)
[She smirks a bit, because no, she's not.]

No, but he doesn't seem like he would be easy to learn from.
valdrin: (pic#2509222)

[personal profile] valdrin 2014-04-07 12:18 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, but he does so love pointing out all the ways a person is wrong.
allmydreams: (Default)

[personal profile] allmydreams 2014-04-09 11:55 pm (UTC)(link)
He does.

[This is her biggest frustration with the guy.]

It's like the glass is always empty.
valdrin: (pic#6972255)

[personal profile] valdrin 2014-04-11 06:52 am (UTC)(link)
Perhaps more as if the glass personally insulted his mother in some way he's never quite gotten over.

[She laughs.]

Guy needs to learn not to hold such a grudge. He'd probably be happier for it.
valdrin: (pic#2488520)

[personal profile] valdrin 2014-04-12 04:22 am (UTC)(link)
I think you're under the mistaken illusion that he wants to be happy. He'd much rather wallow in misery.

[personal profile] allmydreams 2014-04-13 09:18 pm (UTC)(link)
[She wrinkles her nose.]

That doesn't really surprise me.
valdrin: (pic#2509222)

[personal profile] valdrin 2014-04-14 03:54 am (UTC)(link)
Despite appearances, however, I'm not really here to talk about him.
allmydreams: (Default)

[personal profile] allmydreams 2014-04-17 03:03 am (UTC)(link)
You're here to talk about me?

[Obviously.]

And I'm guessing not in the "What did you do this weekend?" kind of way.
valdrin: (Default)

[personal profile] valdrin 2014-04-17 11:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, I wouldn't be opposed, but I imagine you might wish to speak about your progress instead, if given a choice.
allmydreams: (Default)

[personal profile] allmydreams 2014-04-17 11:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Progress is good.

[She gives a bit of a nod in return.]

Which part of my progress exactly?
valdrin: (pic#2549454)

[personal profile] valdrin 2014-04-18 12:12 am (UTC)(link)
I'm curious how far you think you've come, as a squire.
allmydreams: (Default)

[personal profile] allmydreams 2014-04-27 12:51 am (UTC)(link)
Working with a team has been interesting. It's not something I'm used to, but I think I'm handling that well. I need to be a better shot, but that will probably come with time.
valdrin: (pic#2488520)

[personal profile] valdrin 2014-04-27 11:53 pm (UTC)(link)
And what about this whole... Knightly business in the first place?
allmydreams: (Default)

[personal profile] allmydreams 2014-04-28 01:24 am (UTC)(link)
It's not where I would have pictured myself when I first got here, but I like helping people. And the mission I worked in Paris saved the lives of a lot of Shadowkind.

[Which is obviously important to her.]

[personal profile] valdrin 2014-04-28 08:00 pm (UTC)(link)
So you enjoy the work? See a future for yourself here?
