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.

[ all this flattery feels a little weird, but you know what, she'll take it. besides, val'drin deserves to show her off - she didn't get all gussied up for nothing. ]

Thank you. [ she leans in to kiss the corner of his mouth, pulling away to turn her smile toward helen ] Both of you.

[Maybe Helen just wants to join you guys okay?? No, she just ships it. Shut up- there's very little to be happy with around here. It's time to get on the shippy train to distract herself.]

No need to thank me for being honest.

[valdrin]

She's excessively polite. Even to those who don't deserve it. Present company not included on that list, of course.

[ she feigns a dirty look in val'drin's direction. she can't help but crack a smile, though, as she wraps an arm around his waist. ] Being polite never killed anyone.

[daredtobelieve]

That's true enough. Well- I won't keep you tied up in conversation. You should really show her off on the dance floor, you know.

[valdrin]

Oh, believe me. I intend to. [ and he'll wrap one hand around her waist to lead her that way ] Good seeing you, Helen.

[socialgraces]

[ she follows val'drin's lead, gazing at him affectionately. she does spare a glance and smile in helen's direction as they leave, though. ] It was a pleasure, Helen, as always.
