Penelope relaxed a little at the feeling of being so close to him and him stroking the back of her head. The motion eased the knight's nerves a bit. She gave a small nod at his words, hoping they were both right. They were in a pretty tight situation, especially since she had lost a bit of credibility with her comrades, so she still had quite a few worries that refused to go away. Still, Crow was able to comfort her a bit as he pressed a kiss to her cheek and reassured her that he wasn't going anywhere. 

She pulled back slightly, just enough so she could met his gaze, and gave him a small smile. "I love you too and I'm going to make sure you keep that promise." she murmured before leaning down to press a soft kiss to his lips. The knight sunk into his lips, getting a little lost in his warm presence. It nearly turned a bit dangerous as she didn't pick up on the sound of approaching footsteps. 

As they grew a little closer, Penelope blinked and quickly pulled away from Crow as she stepped away from him. Turning to face towards the entrance, she felt her heartbeat anxiously as she realizing how close she had been to slipping up. The anxiousness only got worse as the flap of the tent shifted and her brother stepped in. The female knight tensed reflexively at the appearance of Layth and she eyed him as he walked into the tent. 

"What are you here for?" she asked him, trying to keep a calm mask despite feeling tense. She was rather certain she already knew why he was there but she was hoping to buy a bit of time to figure out a way to get him to leave Crow alone.

"Why do you think?" Layth snorted irritably. His gaze shifted past her to narrow in coldly on Crow. "I haven't gotten the chance to speak with our resident criminal... Unlike you, traitor." He glared at her before moving to push past her to approach Crow. 

"Remember we're keeping him alive, Layth." Penelope warned as she clenched her fists at her side. 

"I'm aware." Layth growled with disapproval as he glanced back accusingly at Penelope. His gaze shifted back over to Crow and he sneered. "I won't kill him but that certainly won't stop me from getting a few answers out of him."
