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.

[She nods.]

That's the one.

[wynn]

I'm afraid I've never met the man.

[allmydreams]

Ah.

[She gives a bit of a shrug before smiling.]

Oh, well. Figured it wouldn't hurt to ask.

[wynn]

Did something give you cause to suspect as much?

[allmydreams]

[She shakes her head.]

Just idle curiosity brought on by too much small talk.

[Read: There's only so many times that she and Lila can talk about the new squires and eventually they wander over to other topics.]

[wynn]

I see. [ he looks amused, and nods. ] I'm afraid there are very few such celebrities in this day and age. During his time, Sir Franklin was quite well known, I do recall.

[Due to this spectacularly perfect wisdom crit fail, Felicity completely misses that male pronoun because she's taking a sip of her drink or what have you, and her eyebrows go up at that mention of "Sir Franklin."]

Wait like Aretha?

[WATCH HER GET SUPER EXCITED FOR A SECOND.]

[wynn]

... Not quite, no.

[allmydreams]

[Then she actually puts some thought into it instead of going off her first reaction and closes her eyes (wisdom 13).]

Or Benjamin. Because that would make much more sense.

[Wow, Felicity, good job.]
