after-party ♔ september



Jeux d'eau - Ravel

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.

[sense motive 24. Oh. She believes him. That concept is entirely foreign to her and the completely confused look on her face shows as much.]

But you--! I mean, you were... Really? You've been doing good?
bigbad: injuries (I am a rock)

[personal profile] bigbad 2014-09-26 06:17 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. [He looks vaguely frustrated that he even has to go into this. He has no memories of being bad. Why's it have to come back and haunt him anyway?] Look, I'm not the guy you think I am. Haven't been for as long as I can remember.

[Willow is quiet for several beats, trying to decide how to process this.]

So... What sort of things have you done here?

[She believes he's not lying but it's still a really hard pill to swallow. Please cite you're sources for your good deeds Spike. Maybe this is Spike's recap episode.]
bigbad: injuries (Please me)

[personal profile] bigbad 2014-09-30 10:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, lots of stuff. [He's been here over two years like that's a lot of stuff to recap.] I've been on this one mission more or less since I got here. Turns out it wasn't exactly routine.

[And he was kidnapped and tortured and replaced with a doppelganger for a little while there ahahaha we don't need to tell that story.]

[personal profile] olreliable 2014-10-01 04:11 pm (UTC)(link)
What kind of mission? What are you trying to do?

[Did you miss her always asking questions? Oh wait you can't remember that. TIME TO LEARN FOR THE FIRST TIME.]
bigbad: injuries (i'm on the ground)

[personal profile] bigbad 2014-10-05 11:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, we were trying to find this magic thing. But we got a bit sidetracked by all the experimenting on Shadowkind and evil dictators and torture.
olreliable: (Default)

[personal profile] olreliable 2014-10-06 01:40 pm (UTC)(link)
...magic thing.

[Spike you are terrible at this.]
bigbad: injuries (A kick in the teeth is good for some)

[personal profile] bigbad 2014-10-07 05:42 am (UTC)(link)
Lazarus Talisman. We've gotten sidetracked enough that it rarely comes up these days. But it's supposed to be very powerful.

[personal profile] olreliable 2014-10-12 06:38 am (UTC)(link)
They usually are. Big powerful talisman. Nothing new there. What's it do?
bigbad: injuries (I aim to break)

[personal profile] bigbad 2014-10-12 06:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Uh, gives the bearer strength, stamina, that sort of thing. Oh, and immortality. Which is probably really appealing to those who don't already have us.
olreliable: (pic#8391276)

[personal profile] olreliable 2014-10-13 03:42 pm (UTC)(link)
So did you find it? [Casually filing away a reminder to herself to start some research in the library about this thing.]
bigbad: injuries (smack me round and)

[personal profile] bigbad 2014-10-17 04:04 pm (UTC)(link)
No. As I said, we've been... side tracked. [IT'S REALLY COMPLICATED.]

[personal profile] olreliable 2014-10-18 03:44 am (UTC)(link)
Something was more important than finding it? [LIKE WHAT?]
bigbad: injured (so much harder than the blows ever did)

[personal profile] bigbad 2014-10-23 05:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Dictators, anti-Shadowkind extremists, experiments on Shadowkind, dragon claws getting kidnapped, that sort of thing. [A beat.] I mean, I think we still want the amulet, but it's sort of not the main concern.
olreliable: (nervous||the truth hurts)

[personal profile] olreliable 2014-10-27 03:56 am (UTC)(link)
Huh. [Well, she's starting to see where an amulet might be less important than...all of that.] ...Can I help?

[Not that he actually knows the sort of help she usually offers. And not that she's actually totally okay with helping Spike, of all people. But this is what she's here for. And she can tell he's being sincere about being on the good guy path so...]
bigbad: injuries (But tell me now)

[personal profile] bigbad 2014-11-03 06:17 am (UTC)(link)
[Spike raises his eyebrows.]

What, now you want to help a bloodthirsty vampire? Aren't you worried I'll eat you?
olreliable: (pic#8391293)

[personal profile] olreliable 2014-11-08 03:14 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm going to worry about that either way, so I might as well do some good before I potentially become lunch, right?

[There was never a more lawful good.]
bigbad: injuries (And can you lie next to her)

[personal profile] bigbad 2014-11-12 02:18 am (UTC)(link)
[He squints at her.] ...pretty sure there's some problems in that logic, pet. But I suppose there's always research to be done. You can ask Wynn.
olreliable: (pic#8391289)

[personal profile] olreliable 2014-11-16 02:22 pm (UTC)(link)
[Willow is not at all concerned if Spike has a problem with her logic. What does he know anyway? But the idea of talking to Wynn about it seems to make sense. So she nods.]

I'll uh- see you around, I guess. [It's weird. It's still weird. And Willow will be side eying his existence here for awhile. But he at least seems genuine about wanting to do good things. Maybe she can ask Wynn about that too. She just has to get over how Wynn is incredibly intimidating and find the nerve to go talk to him. Oops.]
bigbad: injuries (So we remain the same)

[personal profile] bigbad 2014-11-19 04:05 am (UTC)(link)
[He smiles at her, an almost friendly expression until he says:] Not if I see you first. [And heads off to mingle with other people!]
