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.

[ And there, right there, maybe she's struck a little too close to the truth. But then there have been plenty times he's done what he ought to be, but maybe too much that simply holds him back. He looks down, as though he can't possibly meet her gaze, needing to steel himself before he does. ]

Yes. Yes well maybe you're right.

And what about you, John? Are you where you believe you need to be?

[bowtimeandspace]

Ah, now isn't that the question.

[ He wishes he could answer it and be sure, wishes he could truly know either way. But he doesn't, not yet. ]

I suppose we'll find out, won't we?

[trebond]

We will indeed.

Regardless, I hope you enjoy the party. It is for you, after all.

[ He smiles a little, and touches his finger against the tip of his top hat ]

Ah, well that's one thing I always do.

[ And he's lying, of course, but not really trying to be wholly convincing, not this time. ]
