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.

I prefer to avoid labels entirely, actually. I was a ... fascination. An oddity. Psychiatrists were lining up around the block, dying for a chance to slap a label on me.

[socialgraces]

Well, I assure you, the only label you need wear here is Sir.

[mydesigns]

That's a label I'm all right with.

[socialgraces]

That's good to hear. [ she gives him a small smile before looking down into her drink ] We'll talk again soon. I'll have to set up an orientation, of sorts, and if you'd like - after you've had time to think on it - I can help make a few introductions to the others I mentioned.

[mydesigns]

Sure. Just — nothing big. Not another party. I don't do well with parties. [WHY DO YOU THINK HE IS WALLFLOWERING RN.]

[socialgraces]

[ she laughs softly ] No more parties, at least none you're forced to attend. Your orientation will be much more reserved, I promise.

[mydesigns]

[he smiles a bit, too, seeming more at ease than he was when she first came up.] Thanks, Francesca.

[socialgraces]

Don't mention it.

If you need anything, just call. Otherwise, I'll be in touch.
