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 || June 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.

[Faith follows and takes note of all of the places that Alaric shows her. Once they get into the lab, though, she opts to take a slow tour at first, just glancing at the usual things that she figures are pretty standard. She slows when she reaches the aforementioned area that Alaric is in charge of.

Her hand hoers over a few items, but she just goes for what's familiar and takes hold of a stake.]

I recognize this, but the rest of this stuff -- it looks like I should know it.

[ex_ric243]

You recognize a wooden stake? [That was sort of interesting... unless she liked to pitch tents or something. Then maybe not so much.]

[msattentionspan]

[Faith raises a brow.]

Didn't they give you any information on me before they shuffled me off onto you?

[ex_ric243]

Not really, no. That's what this is supposed to be about, I think.

[asuma]

That makes a bit more sense then.

[He's gonna want deets on all of this shit eventually but we can say they talk and get caught up over the course of her first month idk.]

[msattentionspan]

[Faith shrugs and puts the stake down.]

Back home I'm a Slayer. The whole chosen to hunt demons gig. Vampires are pretty much the main targets.

[consequence]

[She might give him details... One day.]

There are wolves that still live in the bayou. They've been cured of the curse, so I have people there. [Hayley doesn't remember Jackson or Oliver, though. Or that it was her family that had been cursed.]

[ex_ric243]

I think I'm starting to see why they thought we'd be a good fit, in that case.

[He moves over to where she's at, since it's near all of his weapons.]

I may not have been chosen, but I dealt with my share of vampires before I arrived.

[asuma]

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but that is no longer the case.

You have people here. Myself, and Rebekah.

[consequence]

[She hadn't meant that she had them here, but that was why she'd been in the bayou.]

That's a bit on the small side for people, Klaus.

[msattentionspan]

[Faith turns to face him a bit more fully, an eyebrow lifting in curiosity.]

Yeah? What kind of vampires? [Now, to be fair, Faith doesn't know about the Turok Kahn (or however they're spelled, because even Faith wouldn't google that shit for the spelling), but she's just curious if this guy is serious or bullshitting her.]

[ex_defenestratings377]

Yeah. [ she nods slowly. ] I should go back. [ and run away ahaha. ] It was nice to meet you.

[ and bam, she's gone, yo. ]

[easily]

[She hands him her own empty glass.]

Another scotch.

[killingtodeath]

You know, you're sort of like one of those sour patch kids commercials. But in real life.

[bluffcheck]

[Thoster takes a closer look, examining the moving picture closely.]

Quite the resemblance. [Oh man this is going to be his new favorite thing.] Are there more of these? I think I would like to see them.

[shootfirst]

Lates.

[generaldavideus]

[He nods in agreement before wandering back to the bar to do just that!]

[lurings]

Uh, yeah. [ she leans over and swipes back to the previous page which is her google search of "disney captain hook gif" for thoster to peruse at will. ] There's a bunch.

[lurings]

Thanks. [ honesty is a virtue. abigail is very honest.

/laugh track.

but everyone likes sour patch kids, so. she wins. ]

[witchwoman]

Smiling in a smaller, more private way, Myri steps closer to push herself on tip toe so that she can press a quick kiss to his cheek. For the first time since she's returned from Andres, he's made her forget all the pain and managed to make her laugh. That's important to her.

"You should enjoy the rest of your party. There are so many more people for you to meet."

[bowtimeandspace]

He doesn't realise of course just how much it might mean, doesn't know her well enough for that. But either way, he's happy to see her smile. A smile is important, no matter who.

"I'll see what I can do," he tells her, and he means it. She's brightened his hearts, just as he's brightened her.

"Nice to have met you, Myri."

[bluffcheck]

[Taking her phone, he marvels at all the images.]

I'll be damned. I wonder if he's seen these.

[killingtodeath]

Anytime. [He doesn't really get her but she's interesting.] I'm gonna go check out the food? Wanna come with?

[sorceresslite]

You bloody fucking heathen. [ but she's smiling so i guess that's an endearment???? because she's teasing. ]

[sorceresslite]

Oi, mister, I'm not against electrocuting you. [ SO THATS A NO ON HOBBIT, THEN. ]
