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 gives a bit of a shrug.]

Depends. Are you from here or did you come through the Veil?

[He's not judging - it's just a straight forward, factual question. Coming through the Veil, some people have more to adjust to than others. He certainly did.]

[killingtodeath]

Veil. Definitely Veil. Complete with missing memories and all.

[generaldavideus]

Me too. Though I actually remember a fair amount, I think. It's hard to say - I haven't met anyone from my world.

[killingtodeath]

I sort of ran into a girl from home. Literally, actually- if you were watching that mess during the ceremony. [He points out Lydia.] Lydia Martin. She and I go to school together. Went. Whatever.

[generaldavideus]

[He nods as he follows his pointing to Lydia.]

You have someone from home. That's good, isn't it?

[killingtodeath]

Yeah, it's... I mean I think it is. She's not always my biggest fan. Its complicated.

[generaldavideus]

It's still someone. Maybe with both of you being here, she can get over it?

[Maybe not in those words exactly, but he knows from experience (he thinks) that even people who hate each other tend to band together in unusual circumstances.]

[killingtodeath]

Maybe. I dunno. Been trying not to think about it, really. [As definitely evidenced by him bringing it up out of nowhere.]

Anyway. You. Me. Lacrosse. I'm serious, dude.

[generaldavideus]

[David nods in agreement.]

Definitely. Just let me know when and where.

[Provided he's not, you know, chasing one of the squires in his protection through Russia.]

[killingtodeath]

[Or traveling through the internet in a series of tubes.]

You got it. [And he will hold out a fist for some sweet fistbump action.]

[generaldavideus]

[Yeah, David has no idea what that's for (wisdom 4). He left the real world in the nineties, dude. He's just going to stare at that fist for a moment and try and figure out what Stiles expects him to do with it.]

[killingtodeath]

[After being left hanging, Stiles just reaches over and takes one of David's hands, curling it into a fist and guiding it to lightly tap Stiles' own.]

It's called a fistbump. Use it wisely. Use it justly.

[generaldavideus]

[He nods a bit as he makes note of it, but is a bit amused at the "power" this will provide him.]

I'll do my best.

[killingtodeath]

Atta boy. Now why do you make the rounds and I'll catch up with you later. Go get 'em, tiger.

[generaldavideus]

[He smirks a bit at that, before giving a bit of a nod.]

Enjoy the party.

[And with that, he'll go wander off to ... probably wallflower.]
