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.

[ crit failed her sense motive. ALL THE TRUTH EVER. ]

... Oh. [ well why didn't you just ask for help oh my god is it a seeing eye dog are yOU BLIND.] What's his name? I'll help.

[mydesigns]

[I MEAN WITH HIS DISGUISE CHECK OF 5 HE DOES LOOK LIKE HE COULD BE BLIND. or at least like he takes fashion advice from macklemore.] Lemon. He's usually well-behaved, I guess he must just be overexcited. New surroundings, new people ...

[immuno]

I thought service dog training was supposed to get rid of all of that?

[ just sayin. but she's looking around the ballroom now. ]

[mydesigns]

[dryly] He's not a very good one.

[immuno]

Maybe you should get a new one. [ she pushes open the back door and calls out for lemon, frowning against he darkness. ]

[mydesigns]

Oh, there he is. [spot 25; lemon found a new favorite bush in the courtyard to roll around and get dirty under, ok. yep. this is what a service dog looks like.] Lemon! [lemon comes dashing over ... definitely looking like a service dog. he sits and stares up at will and lydia panting like HOWDY I AM A DOG LOVE ME.]

[immuno]

[ she crouches down and starts to pet it, smoothing fluffy white hair back and looking over its excitement. i'm giving her sense motive of 16 the benefit of a lowered dc to figure out that this is NOT A SERVICE DOG despite will's earlier bluff check ok like there is a line. she searches its neck for a collar as she looks up at will. ]

She might be able to do her job better if you kept her on a harness. You know. Like people who need service dogs do. [ it's not lemon's fault tho so she keeps her pets gentle. ]

[mydesigns]

[he didn't expect it to last forever, okay. especially not after ... this. sobs. whatever, lemon's back and he's happy enough.] Abigail brought him out. I wasn't so sure it was a good idea.

[immuno]

Well, you were right to be uncertain. Someone's familiar could have decided he looked like a snack.

[ the scolding is softer than her usual bite, but she gives lemon one last pat and straightens to stand. ]

Not to mention the health violations involved in having animals that shed near food and drink.

[mydesigns]

[once she stands, lemon presses his nose against her leg like no come back. more pets :( ] Why are you so concerned with health violations? [you're like 12.]

[immuno]

Maybe because I wasn't raised in a barn.

[mydesigns]

My dog is clean. [lmao no lemon looks like a hot tranny mess now that she's been rolling around outside. ... so he corrects himself.] ... Usually.

[immuno]

And I'm sure you're clean usually, too. But not tonight.

[mydesigns]

What? I thought I looked okay. [ hashtag proof he may actually need a seeing eye dog.]

[immuno]

To Helen Keller, I'm sure you do.

[mydesigns]

[WILL NOT ENGAGE THE TEENAGER. DISENGAGING.] Well ... thanks. [bye bitch. he's taking his dog inside now. maybe it'll shit in her bed like sven's displacer beast >:c ]
