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.

[That earns a wry grin.] O'Keefe's and Hathaway's must be related.

[Seriously. You should see how much this one can put away.]

Upside? One good belch and you'll have room for more.

I wonder if I can force one. Maybe I just need to chug a soda.

Don't force it. [Voice of experience.] You might get more than you bargained for.

Somehow I don't think Wynn would appreciate that on his nice marble floors. [ classy conversations r us ]

Blame it on food poisoning. Then you get sympathy and somebody else has to clean it up. [The classiest.] And by somebody else, I mean anyone but me.

Some mage with a clean spell, hopefully. For them, it's just a matter of bibbidy-bobbity-boo.

Yeah but where does it go when they do the bibbidy-bob-a-whatever? That's what I wanna know.

Away...? I guess I don't think about it too hard. Not like it's my problem once it's gone.

As long as I'm not, breathing it or whatever. [Only her, I swear.] I'm, Rose by the way.

[Will Save 18 keeps Rose from adding; Thank you for not being a bitch. Her night. Seriously.]

Nice to meetcha! Faith O'Keefe. [ and she holds out a hand out more by way of please-help-me-to-standing really but still ]

[With an amused grin, Rose does just that.

Seriously though. Just don't barf cause Rose is prone to sympathetic vomming and mage clean-up or no, that could get ugly.]

You too. [Wow and she meant that!] Though I'm generally pretty happy to meet anyone who could try and out-eat me.

[ faith slings up to her feet with rose's assistance and only holds her stomach for a few seconds to make sure she's ok. SHE'S GOOD. NO CRIT FAILS HERE. ] Yeah, well, you grow up with a big brother with a bottomless stomach and a girl's gotta learn to keep up!

[I might have lmfao'd had there been a crit fail.]

I can relate. [Grinning.] Except exchange brother for school full of boys.

You went to an all boys' school?

I went to a mostly boys school. Upside, getting time in the bathroom was easy.

Why the shortage of ladies?

I don't know. [She shrugs.] Something to do with the training I guess. [Bluff 16.

It was more to do with the whole, women stayed home and made little, little dhampirs while the men went off and threw themselves in front of speeding Strigoi.]

[ she doesn't even seem to question it, because WHY WOULD ROSE LIE/BE SHIRTY ] Oooo, what kind of training?

[Explaining bloodwhores was just, awkward for Rose on so many levels.]

Ya know. Guarding techniques. Armed and unarmed combat. [And then skip to the blunt.] Vampire killing 1-0-1.

Really? I killed a vampire on our mission last year.

Where abouts? [Given the events of her first mission?] Was the mission, not like, did you stake it versus cutting its head off... though if you wanna share that?

Well, I sort of exploded its brain.

[Just... give her a minute.]

With - your - mind?!

Yep. [ :) ] Kinda freaky, right?

I... don't really have a great track record with people who can set things on fire without the use of matches.

[~~Christian~~ Faye, case in point.]
