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 is going to give him pause as he regards David like boyyyyyyy...]

That's a fairly big leap.

[generaldavideus]

[David's threshold of awful is different than most.]

I rescued a wizard's human sacrifice. He took it personally.

[so he didn't necessarily mind drowning - in his mind, it meant he was doing something right. He's messed up in the head, Aedan, are you sure you still want to be his friend?]

[ex_noble101]

Not surprising. Blood mages aren't exactly known for their capacity to forgive.

[But that actually wins David points tbh. Since it was ... noble.]

How did you manage to defeat him?

[generaldavideus]

Christos and Tia handled most of that. I mostly kept the hostage safe.

[He may have been a bit waterlogged at the time.]

[ex_noble101]

I see. [That made sense.]

You're not much for dancing, are you? [He's never seen you out there, anyway. Random topic change go.]

[generaldavideus]

[His eyebrows climb a bit, before he shakes his head.]

No. Not really.

[ex_noble101]

Do you know how to dance? [Look it might be the reason.]

[generaldavideus]

[He gives him a bit of a look.]

Some. I'm just not comfortable with it.

[ex_noble101]

Why's that? [Who wasn't comfortable having fun srsly.]

[generaldavideus]

[He shrugs a bit.]

It's just not how I'm used to moving.

[ex_noble101]

[Oh, David. They need to get you laid. Aedan looks ... a little amused by that.]

You know you'll never learn to be comfortable dancing standing back here, right?

[generaldavideus]

[Ahaha. David and sex. Funny story.]

That implies I want to learn.

[ex_noble101]

You will eventually, I'm sure. [Openly smiling now because w h a t.

But he is going to go dance his butt off regardless.] Maybe next time.

[generaldavideus]

[He nods a bit before raising his drink.]

Maybe next time.

[And with that he's going to wander off to pick up some food.]
