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.

an actual decade later, ok to ignore/handwave something if you want to!

Sorry. [ Startled into sincerity, if only because he's currently way out of his element. As soon as he actually looks at her, Jackson recovers slightly. And that's looks, by the way, because he doesn't fail to notice that she isn't bad looking herself.

Vaguely reminded of Erica, actually. Not sure if it's the attitude or the blonde, possibly both. ] I thought I saw... [ Someone he knows, but that means admitting he knows those idiots, so jk. He trails off, brow furrowing. ] Are you a Knight?

[ Real talk, why are there so many teenagers in this castle. ]

[bittersweeter]

Yes. [ duh. actually no, she's totally not. THERE WAS AN INCIDENT. but she lies like a rug and it's an oriental rug. in the queen's palace. she lies like the queen's oriental palace rug. (bluff 50) no really, she is... scary good. ]

You're new, I take it?

[ 'cause she did not go to the ceremony. ]
