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 || April 1st, 2014, 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.

In that case, good luck. Many happy returns... which I guess in this case means "hope you don't come back from a mission in a box."

[wow what a cheerful ball of sunshine.]

[ambitionist]

We're all gonna end up in a box anyway. [EXCEPT FOR U NEENER NEENER DES. not that alex knows.] At least I'll probably end up in a nicer one here than I would've back home.

[nothingsodivine]

You're a real glass half full kinda guy, huh?

[ambitionist]

I'm a realist. And I could say the same to you.

[nothingsodivine]

Oh, my glass is usually all the way empty. Mostly because I drank whatever the hell was in it, but... [kanyeshrug.]

[ambitionist]

Charming. So, I'm guessing that you aren't a Knight yourself?

[nothingsodivine]

Private Investigator. Sometimes Wynn gets in over his head and he calls someone who lives in the real world and not the world that still dresses up in armor and fights ogres.

[ambitionist]

You'd think he could manage to find someone without quite such a dismal outlook on his organization.

[nothingsodivine]

It keeps things in perspective. And it's about eighty-five percent getting Wynn's goat. Not that it amounts to anything- the bastard doesn't even flinch.

[ambitionist]

Well, good. Unflinchable's the kind of quality you want in a boss. [oh right. manners are real. he holds out his hand for shaking.] I'm Alex.

[nothingsodivine]

Of course it is. [He accepts the hand with a firm grip.] Descant. You can call me Des.

[ambitionist]

Nice meeting you. [was it, tho?] I guess I'll leave you to ... that. [he motions at food mountain.]
