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.

There's something in my head. Saw it when I took a little trip with Martha to get my head scanned. But we haven't had time to really look into it more than that.

[postergirl]

That doesn't seem the sort of thing one should put off, darling. [ she side eyes him as they walk, as if trying to conceal her concern. ]

[bigbad]

Well, it's not like it's slowed me down, much. [He has TONS of hit points.]

[postergirl]

Yet. What do you call that little display out there? That's hardly what you want happening when you're facing down the villains.

[bigbad]

That's never happened before. Not like that.

[postergirl]

Oh, well that's promising.

[bigbad]

[Spike scowls.] I got pretty close to getting your toes a few times. Practically an attack.

[postergirl]

I guess we'll just have to invest in dancing lessons for you.

[bigbad]

You could teach me. If you don't mind the danger to your toes.

[postergirl]

I might be convinced. Should you make it worth my while.

[bigbad]

And what is it you'd want, love?

[postergirl]

I'm certain I could think of something.

[bigbad]

Well, when you think of it, let me know. [He smiles at her and glances towards the kitchen. Suppose I ought to eat something. You don't have to watch.]

[postergirl]

Why, were you planning on bleeding a virgin on the rug? I think I can handle the sight of a little blood in a glass.

[bigbad]

I dunno, I think Gar has plans.

[Sorry, Gar...]

I've no doubt you could handle it. But you don't have to.

[postergirl]

If you insist. Are you going to be ... alright? [ wow those words don't come out very naturally ]

[bigbad]

Yeah. Not my first headache.

[NO DUMAGE HE'S GONNA GET KIDNAPPED BY MYRI AND NEVER BE ALL RIGHT AGAIN.

I mean.

What?]

[postergirl]

If you say so. [ and with that she hovers a few more minutes then... slips out ]
