Penelope mirrored his smile as voiced his support of her idea. She was glad to see it cheered him up slightly despite the minor setback in their plans. "Any time we can get is good with me. Especially since we've been mainly relying on meals to spend time with each other as of late." she said amusedly. Regardless if they were courting or not, she would enjoy having the extra time with him before they had to split for the rest of his trip. She was about to add onto her comment when Naida came trotting up. The knight let out a sigh, knowing exactly what was going to come from the princess' arrival. And ofcourse, Naida jumped right into it. She rolled her eyes subtly as Naida brought up the previous night immediately. However, this time the knight decided to tease her friend instead of denying her out right so before Crow could reply, Penelope jumped in. "Well actually we were just discussing when we could begin courting before you popped up." she mused with an air of casualness. She casted a quick glance at Crow, winking at him. Naida's eyes widened with excitement. "Wait, whaaaaaat!! Really?" "No, of course not." Penelope snorted, despite the fact that her words had actually held quite an amount of truth. "We were actually just talking about the council meeting Crow went to today." Naida pouted. "Well you should be!" she insisted but then gave a curious look as Penelope brought up the council meeting. "Oh right! How'd that go?" she asked, turning to look up at Crow.
