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 || October 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.

[He looks a little confused. In all fairness he is still tying this all back to her the knighthood is like high school metaphor. So like--]

Why?

[bittersweeter]

I joined the family business. [ another shrug. not to mention that she missed three years of school. the struggle was too real, tbh. this is why she has ric to teach her all the remedial shit she can't teach herself. and if he tells anyone, she'll just murder him. :) ]

They didn't want you to graduate? [That sounds like the opposite of family as he's used to it. Drinks more scotch and soda tbh.]

Higher education wasn't really necessary for my dad's particular line of work. My mom probably enjoyed it, used it as an excuse to be pissed at my dad.
