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.

Really? Is that so. [ omg doctor, stahp. staaaaaahp. you're killing him here, he has no defense against the doctor's dumb charm. and his cute face. and his deceptively built frame because gus' hand is still against his chest and damn, doctor. ] Maybe you and I could slip away and you can tell me more about your bowties. [ his hand lifts to touch one corner with his index finger. ]

[ apparently the Doctor is being extra special in the oblivious department (wis 6 - yeah idek). He frowns a bit though, because he's probably the first person that's ever asked him to not shut up about bowties. ]

Well there's really not much to tell... Though there's quite the skill to tying one! Takes some practise let me tell you! I could show you if you like.

[ yeah because taking an item of clothing off will help. sure. ]

[druidisms]

[ it's okay, gus is equally dense and just thinks the doctor wants to play rock, paper, take off all your clothes... so. he's a-okay with that. ] I'd love that.

[ okay good let's go somewhere quiet and not at all for anything other than an education in neckwear. he knew writing that Big Book of Bow Ties would come in useful one day. He turns his head, looking for a door. ]

I do hope you can keep up, because once I get started I tend to go quite fast.

[ TALKING, GUS, he means TALKING ]

[daredtobelieve]

Oh, now doesn't this spell trouble. What are you two up to?

[Spoiler: she knows. At least she knows what Gus is after (wis 19).]

You've fallen in with a bad crowd already, John. Tsk.

[bowtimeandspace]

[ he grins, it's Helen, look! He likes Helen! ]

Well if it isn't the Doctor herself. [ and nope, calling her that isn't growing old. ]

Oh we were just going to go somewhere and discuss bowties! Would you like to join us?

[druidisms]

[ u suck helen. ]

[daredtobelieve]

Bowties, hm? [shush Gus, you love her.] I had no idea you were interested in those sorts of things, Harrison. And here I thought I knew you so well.

[She glances back to "John" and grants him a more genuine smile.] I'd love to actually. [Just to piss Gus off tbh.]

[druidisms]

[ u suck so much. ] I was going to introduce him to Armani, if you really would like to know.

[daredtobelieve]

[And now we know that Gus' nickname for his dick is Armani. Helen just has the most precious secret smile. Also, she's not leaving :D ]

[bowtimeandspace]

Fabulous! We can all three of us go then! [ bless. he really has no idea, does he? ]
