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 || August 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.

[ IS IT THOUGH??? ]

Yeah. It's kind of hard to look at it objectively when you have no where else to go, though.

[She nods a bit at that. It's true.]

Have you been putting aside any of the money you've earned so far? Saving anything from your paycheck?

[lurings]

Yeah, I don't buy a lot of stuff. [ so she's basically put all her money in the bank tbh bc she has nothing to spend it on except clothes and ice skating with will. ]

[killmypatience]

So keep saving. Even in a world where we're not really wanted, money plays. If you ever decide that you really do need to get out, that's going to be your safety net.

[If Abigail has doubts, then she should be prepared to do what's best for her. Kate certainly wouldn't judge her for that. Kate had survived for a year on her own, and she knew that Abigail was smart and capable. She'd figure it out, one way or another.]

[ her head bobs in a nod. makes sense. a fall back, as it were. not that abigail has any intention of going anywhere that will isn't, but since when is she allowed nice things? never. it's probably for the best that she have something there. a safety net. ]

Thanks.

[killmypatience]

Of course.

[She takes a sip of her drink, glancing up to check the door and seeing that the crowds have parted.]

Coast is clear. Better make your escape.

[ instead of another "thanks" she just smiles softly and darts out. you're a pal, kate.
