Penelope's eyes widened at Cedric's words, caught off guard as the knight's confusing words finally connected with his statement. It struck her that the male knight thought he and Naida were courting. Next to her, she heard Crow choke on his food and she turned her head to look worriedly over at him. As he went on to flusteredly deny Cedric's assumption, she gave a confirming nod. 

"Yeah it's not like that at all." Penelope agreed with an awkward chuckle. She supposed it was only a matter of time before someone suspected Crow and Naida of being more than just friends but it was still strange for her to hear knowing that the two were actually just siblings. Of course, that wasn't something she could share with Cedric to clear up the confusion. 

"Really?" Cedric mused with a hint of surprise. He studied Crow for a moment before giving him a sympathetic look. "Sorry, is it one sided?"

Penelope stifled a snort of laughter. It seemed Cedric was even more misled than she thought possible. She looked over at Cedric as he gave her a confused look and she shook her head. "They're really just friends Cedric." she told him with a small smirk. "It sounds like you've been listening to too much castle gossip."

"Well, it's just that I see them together so much." Cedric pointed out with a small shrug. He casted a look at Crow. "One can only infer something more must be going on. My apologies though."
