after-party ♔ october

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.

I think it's part of the intro tour.

[likedillinger]

Can't say I'm complaining about getting my hands on some of those Bond gadgets.

[watchmaker]

I could get Lila to give us an advanced peek, if you're interested.

[likedillinger]

If she's into playing Bond Girl, ring her up.

[watchmaker]

On it. [so he texts lila from across the room to see if she wants to show him and dean the weapons room. romance in the year of our lord 2014, people.]

[bittersweeter]

[ one bond girl, coming up. lila just up and peaces out from whomever she was talking to and flutters over to her boys. ]

Ladies. I hear you need a tour guide this evening?

[likedillinger]

I heard you've got the keys to the good stuff.

[watchmaker]

If you'd be so kind.

[bittersweeter]

Anything for my boys. [ casually claims them both in a move no one was surprised by. ] Follow me, baby squires.

[ AND OFF SHE TROTS. ]

[likedillinger]

Can we do without the infantalizing? [ following tho ]

[watchmaker]

You get used to it. Well ... sort of. No, not really.

[bittersweeter]

It's habit, okay? I'm used to making grown men cry. [ she turns to walk backwards, pouting at them both. ]

[likedillinger]

Exactly how old are you, anyway? Should I be calling Chris Hansen on this guy?

[bittersweeter]

[ she makes a face. ] I'm nineteen, but thanks, Dad! [ she affects a look of mock, cheerful gratitude. sir, pls. ]

[watchmaker]

And I don't actually remember how old I am, so ...

[likedillinger]

Oh, yeah, cuz that makes it better. [ he's just giving you shit, sylar. he... can't talk. ]

[bittersweeter]

[ her hands go to her hips. ] You really don't want to get this tour, do you, Dean?

[watchmaker]

[sylar just glances over like yeah dean way to ruin this shit for both of us.]

[likedillinger]

Just asked a simple question.

[bittersweeter]

Patronizing question. [ she's still walking though, turning around again, dark skirt swishing around hr thighs. ] Luckily I like Sylar.

[watchmaker]

I am lucky for that. [/preens. they're so gross lol.]

[likedillinger]

Can you two save it for your own private tour later?

[bittersweeter]

You're such a baby. [ and idk she veers toward the dragon's hide wing and shoves open the doors to the training room. ]

Voila.

[watchmaker]

Huh. [he looks around, vaguely appreciative but not really giving a shit as a human weapon.]

[bittersweeter]

Firing range is through there, rest of the armory is through there. [ she points in the respective directions. ]
