Penelope shifted her gaze away as a silence fell between them for a moment.  She closed her eyes for a moment, trying to take in all that had occurred. It was difficult, as she was still shaken from the storm outside, and decided it was best for her to let it go for now. She opened her eyes again once Crow broke the silence and looked over at him. The knight smiled a little at his words and felt her heart beat just a little faster as he kissed her cheek. 

"Thank you." She said quietly before moving to lean her head on his shoulder again, this time not backing away. "And you know, I'll still be there for you too. Regardless of what I choose, I'll still work as your informant and I'll do what I can to keep helping you." Penelope meant her words. Even if she couldn't be with him, the knight knew she wouldn't be able to just stop helping him. She wanted to be there for him because regardless of her decision, she still loved and cared for him. Choosing to keep her life as it was wouldn't change that. 

The knight let out a small sigh, feeling a bit tired. She eyed the sky from the ceiling cracks. The storm was still going on outside but it seemed that it was slowing down. The rain didn't seem to be pouring as heavily as before and the lightning and thunder seemed to be dying down, or at least she hoped so. "I think the storm will be passing soon.. Thank the gods." She breathed, as she moved to rub one arm with her hand. She was cold and found herself eager to return to her camp so she could get out of her drenched clothing.
