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!)

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'd take anything over what I got, but what the hell? I'm here now. Might as well make the freakin' most of it. [He waves his hand, indicating the party, and decides this calls for another drink. Excuse him while he... climbs on top of a chair to grab one.]

[Carol raises her eyebrow, but doesn't stop him.]

Through drinking and partying?

[beatupgrass]

We just won a war. I deserve all the drinkin' and partyin' I can stand. Mostly the former though.

[airforceful]

Whatever makes you feel better. [But it sure doesn't seem like a healthy way of dealing with war....]

[beatupgrass]

Oh, it does. Especially after that two-month dry spell.

[HAHAHA cries.]

[airforceful]

[Carol winces.] Right, I suppose if anything can drive a small, forest animal to drink....

[beatupgrass]

Hey. I ain't never lived nowhere that wasn't urban in my life. You can keep the arboreal cracks to a minimum. [that's easier to focus on than... torture.]

[airforceful]

Sorry. Small city creature. Often found in trash cans and decorating the highways. Is that better?

[beatupgrass]

[Does this face of scowling aggravation answer your question?]

[airforceful]

[You can't hurt her her stats are ridiculous. She looks amused for a moment, then it fades away. She can't resist teasing him, but... that doesn't mean she isn't sympathetic.]

I'm glad you got out. I'm glad everyone did.

[beatupgrass]

Yeah. [as his face of snarling aggravation becomes more awkward.] I guess I better... get back to this stupid party.

[gratitude is itchy.]
