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.

S'okay. I can find the computer lab with my eyes closed. Actually sleep walked myself there once before. Hard to explain why you're trying to fix a busted computer in your boxers at 4 in the morning.

[thetokenaussie]

On a positive note, at least you weren't surfing the net at 4am in your boxers?

[badexample]

Oh you mean every other day of my life?

[She presses her lips together, trying to hold back her amusement. Given where her head was at when she made that comment...]

Thank god for laptops and locks on doors then. [A hint of a grin.]

[badexample]

[Oh. He gets where she's going now. His cheeks flush a little.]

Not that I'm always- I have trouble sleeping sometimes. That's all.

[thetokenaussie]

Uh huh. [Dry, though her grin widens.] Don't worry - I'm just messin'.

[badexample]

[He nods, the embarrassment fading enough for him to give a sheepish smile.]

You're not the first to make the joke. But we actually get a lot done in the middle of the night, truthfully. Night owls and all that.
