CLOSED ♔ knighting ceremonies

[wynn]

WHO || Wynn, Dovan, Koraith, Hasmed, Lis'sa, Solace, graduating squires, various members of the Knighthood, invited guests [closed]
WHAT || Full Knighting ceremonies for various squires
WHERE || Knight's Headquarters, the Great Hall
WHEN || Late September BACKDATED
HOW || Actionspam

Unlike the grandiose nature of the squiring ceremony each Knight undergoes upon their initial entrance into the Knighthood, the graduation to Full Knight status takes place in a much more intimate affair, between the Knight, their mentor, invited friends, and the members of the sect to which they will be inducted. There's no pompous music, no stolid rank and file, no elaborate march.

The Knight's new section head, Wynn, and their mentor Knight wait up at the front of the room for their approach, but the attitude of the ceremony is much more relaxed, full of smiles and light conversation on all sides. Of course, when Wynn speaks, people still hush. It's just how he rolls.

"Please kneel."


((Given the large amount of promotions occurring, we will not be doing individual posts/parties for each.  Instead, please there are top comments on this post for each section's ceremonies, and each section's parties.  Feel free to make Drakenet posts or plurks establishing your character's invited guests, and tagging into as much as you would like/handwaving as much as you'd like.))

You're so weird. Want tequila? [astrid is carrying around a bottle of tequila rn. y e p. she is the ke$ha in a room of taylor swifts. SHE'S GOING THROUGH A TIME OKAY.]

[ lissa gapes for a second, but her head nods automatically. she is used to faye. and people just shoving alcohol in her hands. ]

Sure, thank you.

[pathology]

[she just hands the bottle over.] You can keep it, I'm sort of tired of ... everything.

[lastdragomir]

[ oh whoa, whole bottle. she holds it awkwardly. ]

Is something wrong?

[pathology]

Oh, you know. Everything. Life. [melodramatic sigh. this child.]

[lastdragomir]

[ hem haw. ]

Would you like to talk about it?

[pathology]

Not really ... it'll just make it worse.

[lastdragomir]

Are you sure? [ she looks so genuinely concerned about astrid's well being it would be comical (or creepy) if lissa didn't give off that air of being an angel or whatever. ]

[pathology]

Yeah, I'm 100. I don't want to bring down your party with my drama.

[lastdragomir]

[ but astrid ITS IN HER NATURE TO HELP. ] ...well, if you're sure.

[pathology]

[more emphatically this time:] One-hundred.

[lastdragomir]

Okay. [ got it. ] Do you want the tequila back, then?

[pathology]

No, keep it. Happy promotion. [and then she just wanders off. ok then.]
