Penelope gave a small nod of agreement. The king seemed capable of handling such sensitive information getting out. After all, he surely must have at least considered it a factor when he requested to see Crow in the first place. He had clearly taken measures to keep more people from finding out about it, even sending her own father on the mission. Albin likely already had a plan in place for when Crow accepted the deal. 

As they reached his room, she stepped inside and was quickly greeted by the savory scent of the small feast the servants had prepared for him. The knight smirked in amusement as she watched the thief head straight for the table where an assortment of food had been placed. She stepped over to join him and gave a small laugh at his words. "Well, I guess that's another perk for you then." she said amusedly as she began to fill up a small plate for herself. 

She began to eat and swept her gaze over the room with newfound interest as it dawned on her that this would be his room now. It wouldn't be a temporary place for him to stay after he accept the offer. It would be his official room once he took the job. Penelope fell silent for a moment as she ate her supper, silently thinking about all that would change with Crow's new title. It was still overwhelming to think about, mostly because there were so many aspects of it to think about.

As she finished her food, she quietly stood up to her feet and looked over the library again before moving to lean against the bed. Penelope crossed her arms and looked over at him. "Gods.. I know you haven't even formally accepted the offer yet but I just can't stop thinking about how much is changing." she mused softly. The knight shook her head and gave a soft laugh. "I just... really didn't think you were going to choose this. I was already making plans for when I'd head back to my battalion.. Now I'm not even sure if I'm going back now that there's the option to stay and make sure the king ends the war."
