after-party ♔ september

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 || September 6th, 2014, 6:00PM
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.

Like the goddess. [Willow quips back, seeming slightly less awkward. Maybe.]

[felidity]

[ confused stare. what? who? ...help. ]

[olreliable]

You know... Kali! Hindu goddess? Destroyer of worlds?

[felidity]

[ the blankest of blank stares. ]

[olreliable]

Not a big fan of mythology. No big! It's a pretty name.

[felidity]

Thank you! [ PREENS LIKE A WILDLY PRAISE DEPRIVED PEACOCK YES PLEASE MORE. ] Actually, I met a neurotic librarian who mentioned "the Destroyer", is that her?

[olreliable]

Yes!! [Wow, too enthusiastic. Calm down.] I mean... yeah, that's the one.

[felidity]

Oh, that's a nice title, I like it. [ maybe she and drax can be twinsies. ]

[olreliable]

Yeah? Does it fit the bill? [Look she is missing a tiny blonde who can kick everyone's ass in her life.]

[felidity]

Yes, I think so. [ she is pretty destructo girl sometimes. but she was made that way! ]

[olreliable]

Neat! [Probably not the normal response to such things but... knigthood needs some destructive types.]

[felidity]

Thank you. I was made that way.

[olreliable]

M...ade?

[felidity]

Yes, I was built in a laboratory.

[olreliable]

[Built? That sure sounds like...]

Oh my god. Are you a robot?!

[felidity]

No. [ omg duh willow. she actually makes a really good peasants face, but then follows it up with: ] I'm a feline Moreau.

[ obv. ]

[olreliable]

[Well, she got a 26 on her arcane lore check to know a thing about that.]

Ohhhh.

[Not that I really get it. But she does.]

[felidity]

[ SHES A SCIENCE EXPERIMENT. that's all you need to know tbh. ]

That kind of made. No robots.

[olreliable]

Still really cool. [Because robots would be cooler to Willow, I guess??] I mean, I never would have guessed.

[felidity]

Well, we're made to look pretty and most people think the barcode is a tattoo.

[olreliable]

So it's... not a tattoo?

[felidity]

It's part of my genetic sequence.

[olreliable]

So like a birth mark. Except you weren't born, were you? A... made-mark.

[felidity]

Yes, exactly!

[olreliable]

That's so cool. And I'm guessing anyone else like you has one that's unique to them?
