Penelope gave a small shake of her head at Naida before focusing back on her food, eating as the two siblings spoke and missing the look that Cedric gave them. For a moment, the group lapsed into a small silence before Cedric decided to speak up once again, mainly just to chat casually with Penelope and seemingly unfazed by Naida's words, which she was partly thankful for. While the knight didn't care too much about Cedric's opinion, she was worried that he might get suspicious of them, especially since she hadn't completely hidden her support of the former thief rising to viceroy. One day soon she wouldn't bat an eye at it but for now, she still wanted to keep her head down. 

After a bit, Cedric was the first to finish his meal and moved to stand up. "I better be off. Don't want to be late for my guard shift." he sighed. He dipped his head to Crow and Naida then turned to Penelope. "Wish me luck that I don't fall asleep." he grinned. "See you later Penelope."

"See ya." she said with a small wave as he hurried off. She watched him go for a brief moment before turning back to the other two, blinking as she noticed Naida had her arms crossed her her chest and her lips pursed. Penelope sighed and raised an eyebrow at her friend. "What? What's that face for?"

"I don't like him. He's too... I don't know but given his history, I don't like it." Naida frowned. 

Penelope gave a small laugh. "I think you're just overly concerned about [i]other[/i] things." she pointed out with a glance at Crow. She finished the last bite of her meal and stretched out her arms. The knight looked over at Crow's dish, checking to see if the viceroy had finished. She was hoping to leave at the same time as him so she could briefly speak with him about returning the jewels, mainly to make sure he knew which rooms to return which things. "Anyways, I better head off too. I may not have a guard shift tomorrow but I don't want to stay out too late." she mused as she moved to stand up.
