after-party ♔ april

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.

Lovely visual. Um, I dunno. Elves and shit. Christos is a dick, the Fabio blond one seemed kind of chill the one time I met him though. Koraith is pretty much gold. Like... gold. Dovan is a dwarf. Some very middle earth shit up in here. Goblins and dragons and octopus faces, oh my.

[ex_psionic439]

Gross. [Octopus faces, at least. He barely understood the rest. Who the fuck are these people even.]

[bittersweeter]

Right? It was all twitchy, too. [ she makes a face. looks like she knew which part he was ew-ing at. (wis 15) ] Dragons are cool though. Super evil, I guess, but adorable when they're babies.

[ex_psionic439]

[Was he really having this conversation tho...]

This place is so fucked up.

[bittersweeter]

Yeah. [ she will drink to that. except... no drinks. ] Hold on, I'll get us more. [ before he can answer she's up and heading for the bar, weee. BRB BOO. ]

[ex_psionic439]

[I guess he is just resting on his laurels in the meantime wtf.]

[bittersweeter]

[ nice laurels tho. she's back like a minute later with another pink thing for her and something for him. jack and coke. dudes like that right? SHE GIVES NO FUCKS. ] The most fucked up part is when they look at you funny for whatever weird ass things you can do. Like, dude, you have pointy ears, check your racist shit at the door.

[ex_psionic439]

[Whatever works tbh. He is not going to complain to the serving wench and get that shit dumped in his lap. Any brown drank will do basically.]

Wait, what? [Like this is the most unbelievable shit he's ever heard.] That actually happens? [Thanks for the drink btw.]

[bittersweeter]

[ shrug. ] Most people here are pretty chill though. [ except rose. but since rose is afraid of getting in arm's reach of lila, lila is all set. and as such she doesn't actually see rose as a threat since all she can really do is hit things. ] If someone comes at you in a red and black jumpsuit though, just slowly back away. Wynn seems to have a reason for bringing us all in, but some of those reasons, I'm pretty sure, are that he was high as a fucking kite when he agreed to it. [ DEADPOOL. just saying. deadpool. ]

But you don't seem like an awful choice. [ wow lila. high praise. very sweet of you. ]

[ex_psionic439]

[Isn't that supposed to be the default reaction to anyone wearing a red and black jumpsuit tho.]

Nice of you to notice. [Thanks for the asspats. Let him join you.] So what is it you do? [Because he's wondering why erryone is discriminating against a bitch.] Or is that considered like taboo to ask around here?

[bittersweeter]

Probably. [ but obviously she doesn't care since she continues on without pause. ] I give people nightmares.

[ no one actually discriminates against her either, she's just being delicate. ]

[ex_psionic439]

[That sounded both ... oddly cool yet extremely useless at the same time. Congratulations, Lila. Your power is officially a paradox.]

That's gotta be fun. [Sippin' on dat jack and coke.] Not for them, obviously.

[bittersweeter]

Yep. [ she shrugs, unconcerned. ] I do enjoy making people cry.

[ex_psionic439]

It's definitely an under-appreciated artform.

[bittersweeter]

I like you. [ she leans over to kiss his check. ] Don't go getting murdered, there's a severe lack of decent company here.

[ex_psionic439]

[What even. But he will give her points for originality]

I'll try my hardest.

[bittersweeter]

Mmm. Hopefully you succeed. [ bored now, she stands with a whoosh of her skirt. ] Dance with me.

[ex_psionic439]

[It beat sitting around. He takes a second to down the rest of his jack and coke, then rises to the occasion like he's made of pillsbury crescent rolls.]

As long as you can keep up. [Because he got a nat 20 on his dance check and he's all sorts of confident.]

[bittersweeter]

[ well she got a 19, so she's no slouch. this is very sexy dancing, okay. they look fly as fuck. it only took a year, but they finally started getting decent squires. for fucking joy. ]

[ex_psionic439]

[ Them, basically. ]

[bittersweeter]

[ legit, tbh. HELLA MAJESTIC, DONT EVEN FRONT. but idk she's still drinking, because she doesn't stop eating or drinking for boys. so maybe it spills.

on him.

whoops. ] Sorry. [ she's not really. ]

[ex_psionic439]

[If he didn't think she was a classy bitch before...]

I think I'll live. Might want to ease up on the fun there, though.

[bittersweeter]

[ her nose wrinkles. ] Why would I ever? [ but she brushes at his sleeve like that'll help. so helpful. ]

[ex_psionic439]

[Kanyeshrug. He ain't her pops. But wow thanks for the assist there, Lila. Much help.]

No idea. [He won't even be obvious and glance at his now pink sleeve or anything.]

I still need the grand tour. Interested?

[bittersweeter]

Nope. [ wow she is such a bitch. ] Thanks for the dance though. Later gator. [ yep, that would be her flouncing off to go badger someone else. yep. just gone... enjoy. ]
