Penelope gave a relieved look as Crow seemed to accept her words. She smiled a little and shrugged her shoulders at his apology. “It’s ok.” She assured him quietly. The knight blushed a little at his words and averted her gaze over to where William was sleeping. “I don’t know... He’s going to make the rest of this journey a bit more difficult though.” She said with a sigh. “As infuriating as he is, William isn’t a fool. He’ll be keeping a closer eye on me than I’d like.” The knight wrinkled her nose slightly at the thought. 

“Guess we’ll have to just sneak around him until he relaxes.” She mused with a shrug. She smiled, looking a little more relaxed now that she knew her friendship with Crow was safe. 

She glanced back over at the thief and shook her head. “I can’t believe you challenged him. I know it’s hard to just bite your tongue and keep quiet but seriously? Even if you had beaten him, you’d still lose. He’d just make me or Abraxas help him if he couldn’t handle you on his own.” Penelope pointed out, clearly disapproving of what had happened. In a way, she was nearly glad William had over-powered Crow as the thought of it going the other way seemed much worse than her simply faking agreement with the hot-headed knight. 

She shuddered at the thought of having to pick sides in that moment and decided to focus on something else. Her attention went back to Crow. “Speaking of which, are you alright?” She asked him. The question had been weighing on her for a while now and even though she was rather sure that he was fine, she still couldn’t help but double check.
