Penelope gave a small nod to Crow as he thanked her for helping him. "I noticed." she mumbled with a quiet chuckle. She shifted her gaze over to the group that was drinking and watched as her friend guzzled her fourth drink. [i]What a mess..[/i] she thought with a small sigh before looking down at her own drink. She had nearly finished it off and planned to stop at one, knowing that two drinks—especially ones that were strong—would be enough to make her drunk. The knight was already feeling a bit of the effects of drinking the mug anyways so she set the drink down for now.

Her attention turned over to Rikki as the female thief stepped over to Crow. The thief was clearly drunk but even then Penelope wasn't exactly fond of how close she was getting to Crow. She shifted a bit in her seat, finding herself a bit uncomfortable with Rikki's words. Even though Crow had assured her, Penelope couldn't help but still feel a bit unnerved by Rikki's constant attempts. She was nearly going to try and ignore it. That is, until the thief suddenly kissed him. 

The knight's eyes widened at the sight and was quickly reminded of the kiss she had learned about the day before. Luckily, Crow shoved her way from him and Penelope found a bit of relief in hearing the anger in his voice. As Rikki turned towards her, Penelope met her gaze with a cold glare. "Yeah right. Drunk or not I'm sure you know what you're doing." she growled accusingly, the alcohol in her system making her a bit less encouraged to restrain her words. 

"Oh yer jus' mad cause he lingered." Rikki snickered. "Makes you wonder wha' else he'd linger o', don' it?"

"Leave her alone." Gavin suddenly jumped in shooting a disgusted glare towards Rikki and Crow. "I'm getting tired of watching whatever game you're playing here." 

"Ooo looks like someone's 'ryna play hero." Rikki laughed. There was a mischievous glint in her eye that made the male knight eye her warily as she shifted to stumble over to him.

"Sooooo friend o' Pe'elope," she drawled, leaning against the table closely besides him which cause Gavin to lean away from her. "I need yer opi'ion on somethin' here because I jus' can't figure 't out."  The female thief let out a heavy sigh as if troubled by something. Penelope and Gavin both eyed her warily, neither seeming to trust the female thief in that moment. Penelope was a bit worried on where Rikki was planning to go with this. She had managed to keep most information about her relationship with Gavin a secret from her but she wasn't sure if Gavin would be able to do the same. The knight only hoped that his distrust of the thieves would keep him from revealing anything. 

"And what is that?" Gavin asked her with an unamused tone. 

"Weeelll, those 'wo," she gestured to Crow and Penelope. "were toge'her a couple years ago or somethin', right? And then our friend Pe'elope here couldn' make 't back to him for some reason." Rikki waved her hand dismissively and then shifted her gaze over to Crow. "Surely tha' reason was jus' her backin' out though. I mean, wha' else could prevent her for 'wo whole years? I'm jus' wondering wha's keepin' her from changin' her mind again and deciding to ditch again huh? Any ideas? Cuz, I sure don' have any."
