Penelope looked at him as he went on to say that he had made a decision. Her smile faded a bit as she took on a more serious expression as she waited to hear what he had decided. As he announced that he was going to see his father, she gave a small nod and wrapped her arms around him as he pulled her closer. She was a bit surprised that he had decided to see him, it wasn't like Crow was fond of him after what he had done to his mother and him, but she supposed it might be a good thing. He might get some kind of closure in meeting with his father, even if the man was arrogant and greedy. "Don't be sorry. It's something you have to do." she assured him softly. She gave a small nod of agreement as he mentioned wishing she could come with him. The knight wished so too. Not only did she not want to part again, but she also just simply wanted to be there for him. He wouldn't have many friends in the inner kingdom and facing his father, who had turned his back to him until now, surely wouldn't be easy even if it was what he had decided on. Penelope ran her hand over his back as she held him close to herself as she thought over the situation for a moment. [i]Would it be that impossible for me to leave with him?[/i] Sure she had her responsibilities in camp but Tomas had been plenty capable of taking them over for her in the past. So long as she lied about her reasonings for wanting to leave, there was a chance she could convince Mia to let her leave the front for a short while. She was rather certain her father would agree easily, as he had been reluctant to even let her be there in the first place. Her heart began to beat a little excitedly by the thought of being able to leave with them. "What if I could go with you?" she asked him, pulling back just enough to meet his gaze. "I know I can convince my father to let me accompany him. I'd just have to convince Mia and she has another older lieutenant who can probably take over my responsibilities here." The knight gave him a small smile. "If you want, I can try to go with you."
