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.))

No. [ she tries to keep the defensive edge out of her voice but doesn't quite make it sound as blasé as she wishes it would be. ]

[ambitionist]

That's interesting. [which is a way to say i don't believe u without actually saying it.]

[bittersweeter]

Last time I so much as said her name you snapped at me, forgive me for not wanting to get yelled at again. [ she huffs. ]

[ambitionist]

Sorry. [which isn't very much in terms of apology ... but it's a lot coming from alex, ok.]

[bittersweeter]

I need a cigarette. [ /veers wildly toward the balcony. ]

[ambitionist]

Me too. [guess who's joining her lol. :| ]

[bittersweeter]

[ she doesn't actually mind, tapping out a fancy french cigarette and lighting it up before she's even all the way outside and breathing out slowly as her hands curl around the railing. this is why she wears dresses with pockets. ]

She's nice, okay? I don't have a problem with her.

[ she just makes lila uncomfortable for reasons she doesn't want to get into with alex. or anyone. ever. ]

[ambitionist]

Okay. [he leans against a column while pulling out and lighting his own cigarette, not prying.]

[bittersweeter]

[ she's just going to lean against the balcony and smoke because. she's trash. ]

[ambitionist]

[well he's going to smoke, too. and watch her. without saying anything else. yep.]
