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.))

[Caught off guard, Stiles stumbles back and knocks over a tray of some sort of food in the process. He's laughing, though. Basically everything tonight is the best. He can't be brought down.]

Thanks! Congrats on not losing your mind while we were gone.

[graveflowers]

It took like, loads, of effort, really. [ she's teasing and doesn't seem to mind that she's help make a mess. that's like everyday for her. it's only amazing that she wasn't the one that knocked anything over. ] I went on my own secret adventures. I became a ninja. Met the Queen. I'm gonna win a date with Harry.

[killingtodeath]

Yeah, of course. You forgot to toss in 'won the lottery and definitely gonna share it with my buddy Stiles.' [He bumps her lightly with his hip.]

Thanks for keeping an eye on my familiar, by the way. [His little baby owl awwwww. That I still... need to name...]

[graveflowers]

No problemo. I got to feel like Harry Potter. If your owl starts delivering mail, well...

I had nothing to do with that.

[killingtodeath]

Pretty sure I've decided on a name. Huey. [but he pronounces it so that it's almost Hoo-ey.]

Huey Hedwig Stilinski has a nice ring to it?

[graveflowers]

Um. It's... You're not allowed anywhere near the naming processes of your own progeny, calling it right now. But for a tiny owl, I think it's cute. Hedwig would be proud of her namesake.

[killingtodeath]

How about yours? [He gives her belly a gentle nudge with his elbow.] How are you and the little nugget doing anyway?

[graveflowers]

My baby is not a nugget, you dweeb. [ she nudges him back with her hip. ] But we're fine. Probably. I thought I might see if Andres has an obstetrician... I mean, I delivered the last baby, but I don't actually know shit about babies. She's probably fine.

[killingtodeath]

Could see if any of the clerics or medics know anything about it. Astrid and the British chick don't seem to be magical, if you're going for a more hands on approach.

[graveflowers]

[ she looks at him in confusion. british chick? she doesn't assume he means helen because she doesn't apply chick to helen magnus. but it vanishes quickly. ]

I'll see if Mark knows a doctor and if not I'll ask the Light wing to do something.

[killingtodeath]

Do you even know what you're having? Boy? Girl? Velociraptor?

[graveflowers]

Well I'm hoping for velociraptor, now that you mentioned it. Maybe that's what you get when you mix god, human, and sexy elf. Suck it, John Hammond.

[killingtodeath]

You say that now. But when you have to lay a dino sized egg, you may change your tune.

[graveflowers]

That's what they make drugs and hospitals for, young grasshopper. I want to be very drugged for this shindig.

[killingtodeath]

Just make sure your nearest and dearest know that. [He just doesn't think he'll be invited for hospital hang outs?? They're cool, but he's sure she has closer people for that stuff. Doesn't want to intrude.]

[graveflowers]

Oh, they're gonna know. I'm gonna duct tape post it notes to Finnick and Myri and Buffy and Elena's faces. [ not kat, she won't subject kat to childbirth, that's mean. also not mark because he might need to pass out. and gar will need to babysit mark and kat.

and archer? laugh, no.

actually she will probably tell gar and kat, too, just because she knows kat will be on team DRUG ME THE FUCK UP RIGHT NOW. team work. ]

[killingtodeath]

Good. At least I know you'll be in good hands.

[graveflowers]

Yep. I got it covered six ways to Sunday. Whatever that even means.

[killingtodeath]

Well, if you need a seventh way? Just give me a ring.

[graveflowers]

You got it, champ. But for now enjoy your promotion, okay? Go mingle. [ she kisses his cheek before shooing him off. BE FREE NEW KNIGHT.

c'est fin. ]
