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.

Oh my God.

[No really, that's her actual reaction followed by VERY INTENSE HUGGING because it's almost like it was some kind of freaky dream.]

Oh my God, you're here.

[graveflowers]

Surprise! [ she had kept to herself when they first got back, because w o w it felt weird, but she's especially glad to be back once she's hugging felicity. ] I'm here.

[allmydreams]

I am really glad you're here.

[Because ahhhhh bestie!]

And hopefully you're here for a while?

[graveflowers]

Yes, here for a while. A long while. Many whiles. Probably the forever kind of while. [ so repetitive. ] Man, I just said while a lot.

[allmydreams]

You did. I also personally liked the sound of the forever kind.

[No really, don't leave her again. Long distance sucks.]

[graveflowers]

Ditto, yo. [ she pulls back from the hug a little, only to put a hand on either side of her bestie's face and pull felicity in for a kiss. ITS COMPLETELY PLATONIC. mostly. like 98% platonic? felicity is very pretty shh. ]

[allmydreams]

[Oh are they kissing now? Watch Felicity not complain at all. Or even ... be surprised by it. No big deal, just kissing her BFF.

Sorry Luthir.]

[graveflowers]

[ she pulls back after a second. ] Missed you, boo. [ MOAR HUGGING NOW. ]

[allmydreams]

[Yep. There's just going to be millions of years worth of hugging right here.]

Skype is so not good enough.

[graveflowers]

Ugh, I know, right? You smell better than my tablet. [ it's the little things, tbh. ]

[allmydreams]

[Her head bobs in agreement before pulling back to look at her.]

And you're much nicer to hug.

[graveflowers]

God, that is so true. Your hair is so pretty up close.

[allmydreams]

And probably smells better too. My shampoo is way better than pixels.

[graveflowers]

Seriously, you've got some green apple going on up there, don't you? Or that might be me, I dunno.

[allmydreams]

It could be both. I'm not really sure what's in my shampoo.

[Watch as she pulls back a bit to smell her hair and try and figure it out. Because she does not care that they're in the middle of a squiring party.]

[graveflowers]

[ it's just hair sniffing fest up in here. ] Mine is kind of fruity. I can't tell...

[allmydreams]

[Yep, this is why they're the best.]

If it's fruity then there's probably apple in it somewhere.

[graveflowers]

Well then... my hair smells delicious. [ :D ]

[allmydreams]

[=D]

It really does.

[She turns a bit and hooks her arm in Vi's leading them towards the drink area so there can be alcohol.]

So tell me. How are things?

[Things can mean anything, really, but they can just fade with their usual friendly chit-chat.]
