Penelope gave a small shake of her head as Crow proudly admitted to messing with the other knights. Though she wasn't keen on him poking at the already on edge knights, it wasn't like they didn't deserve a bit of it after how they acted. Looking over at Crow, she smirked as he mentioned wishing he could see their reactions to him becoming viceroy. "You might not get to see theirs but I'm sure the nobles in the inner kingdom will be enough once he announces it." she mused quietly. The knight couldn't even begin to imagine what that would look like once they returned to the castle and the king officially announced Crow's new position. 

She didn't get a chance to dwell on it as Olivia and Gavin popped up. The knight looked over at her friends as they approached and smiled at them. Eating some of her food, she listened as the three spoke giving a mildly amused look as she noticed Gavin grow a bit red. As he turned to her, she gave a small nod and swallowed her last bite of food. 

"We do. The king gave Crow enough supplies and gold for this trip so I'm sure we'll make it back just fine." she explained with a small shrug. 

"That's good." Gavin mused with a nod. He glanced over his shoulder at one of the knights eying Crow hostilely before looking back to Penelope. "I think taking supplies would only piss them off more."

"At this point, him just breathing pisses them off." Olivia pointed out. A thought seemed to cross her mind and she turned to Penelope with a broad smirk. "Speaking of which... I can't imagine how your brother's going to react to all of this."

"I can't either." Penelope sighed. 

"He might just collapse from shock and anger." Gavin muttered. He looked over at Crow. "Between you outranking him and eventually courting his sister, I can't imagine him reacting well to it."

Olivia gave a chuckle. "Gods I can't wait for that wedding." she smirked and winked at Crow. "Good luck dealing with your future in-laws."
