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.

[HE DOES OKAY. just not very well apparently.] Hot. He'd be hot if you got him to shave and taught him how to dress. The potential is there. But right now it's like looking at the dumpy girl in glasses before she gets a makeover just in time for the quarterback to ask her to the school dance.

[ this girl is made of confusion rn. ] Why would I want Will to be hot? [ is will hot? ugh, no, that is way too confusing to think about, she's not even going there. ]

Yeah, I guess the guardian thing is kind of a deterrent for you, isn't it? You could consider it your gift to me.

What do you-- oh! [ her eyes get huge. it's just surprise though, no derision to speak of. maybe a little more confusion as she looks between alex and wherever will is. ] You're the quarterback?

[such an innocent shrug.] I could be.

Are you... the quarterback all the time?

... What?

Are you gay all the time?

[he actually laughs at that. this child. so precious.] No, not all the time. I consider myself equal opportunity.

[ she breathes out a laugh, but looks down, tucking her hair behind her ear. she's a little embarrassed. ] Oh.

It's okay, I don't mind you asking or anything. It was just funny, the way that you did.

How else are you supposed to ask? I didn't want to assume you were either or.

I don't know, I didn't expect you to draw out the quarterback metaphor like that.

[ shrug. ] I don't think Will is going to shave. [ you can't have him, find a new present. ]

That's a pity. [he doesn't seem particularly torn up about it.] Guys like that, it's like making out with sandpaper.

[ her nose wrinkles. you're killing her, alex. ] I wouldn't know.

You don't kiss boys?

My dad was a serial killer, he wasn't big on me dating. There's not a lot of opportunity to get out when you're in a psych house for three months.

Edited 2014-06-02 20:53 (UTC)

Well, you've got the time and opportunity now that you're here. [SHE'S NOT HIS REAL SISTER. he can set her free into the wild. shotgun polishing is will's job.]

Who am I going to kiss here?

Anyone you want. [DON'T LISTEN TO HIM.]

[ she makes a face. just like the face she made when alex mentioned his brand of comforting. ew. abigail has no desire to kiss people. or touch them. or be near them. except will and alex. whom she does not want to kiss. there's no kissing on her agenda. ever.

but she's going to push, because that's what she does for her little thrills of control. she likes to see people's reactions. ] You?

[he quirks an eyebrow, but it's not like he's like ewww get it away or anything.] I thought you weren't interested in me.

You're the only person here I like. [ male person. though, she does like fred. so that's not entirely true. ]

So now you want me to kiss you?
