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.

Veil's fun like that. Believe me, you got the better end of the bargain.

[mydesigns]

Why do you say that?

[parsecs]

I got people here who don't remember me. It ain't easy.

[mydesigns]

It seems like both sides would get a raw deal.

[parsecs]

Yeah, guess so. [But Leia seems to be having a fine time not remembering him. Not that... he's told her she should yet.]

[mydesigns]

As much as it hurts for the person who remembers, the person who can't is left feeling frustrated after being told that they should be remembering something they simply don't.

[parsecs]

That assumes you're telling 'em. [Whoops Han may have... left some things out when he talked to Leia.]

[mydesigns]

I suppose so, but sometimes there are holes so big you can't help but notice.

[parsecs]

I think everyone has those. [He can't remember his ship, but he knows she was important to him. He's a pilot and a captain. She has to have been important. Sometimes he feels like for as all that he remembers, he's forgotten twice as much. And just because other people remember less doesn't mean there aren't parts of him still floating out in space.] Just one more gift the veil gives us.

[mydesigns]

Some gift.
