Hello! This is Buzzingbee! I used to be on here as BuzzBee but I had some trouble. I had issues in real life that made me go off for a while and then when I was going to come back on, passwords, emails, etc were forgotten and lost. xD But I'm back and ready to jump into where I left off!

Yeah :D
Sooo what should we have happen next? I was debating if I should just skip to Penelope falling asleep and waking up the next day or not. They’ll be in Younis by then right?

Same x3
Honestly lol I love the slow build ups too! And it especially makes sense for how guarded these to are xD
plus I’m pretty sure Penelope has no experience in the love area so she’s gonna be clueless
Just finished mine :D Also I realized that their stories are kinda similar except for like love and how the parents met

She hesitated as Crow asked who was watching her. Penelope lowered her gaze, debating if she wanted to tell him anything. The information was rather sensitive when it came to her family but then again, Crow had given the story of his own past to her before. Perhaps it was time for her to do the same. Part of her even wished to talk about it now that she had someone who was willing to listen. The topic of her mother was rather forbidden in her family so Penelope didn’t get to dwell much on the past. She sighed softly and looked back over at him.
“No. It’s fine..” Penelope assured. She fell silent for a moment. The knight wanted to share her story with him but worry of what he could do with that story made her hesitant. “Crow... Just as you asked me to keep quiet about your past... I must ask you to do the same.” She said with a hint of warning in her voice. She relaxed slightly and looked back up at the sky as she crossed her arms.
“I was thinking about my mother. I-I don’t get to talk about her much so sorry if I ramble a bit...” Penelope frowned and crossed her arms over her chest as she leaned back into the side of the wagon. She avoided looking over at Crow as she spoke. “She was a peasant. Not a noble. My father was already married to some noblewoman and they already had a son, my brother Layth. However, my father loved the servant and not his wife.
“They were eventually caught and his wife demanded that my mother be sent far away. My father wouldn’t have it, especially since she was pregnant at the time. His wife left and our family turn their backs on him so my father was forced to stay with my mother and her family in one of the outer villages. She had me during a harsh winter and died shortly after giving birth to me.” Penelope said finally casting a glance over at Crow. “I’ve just always wondered if she ever saw me or looked my way from wherever she is now... Or what she was even like or her name... My father refuses to speak about her."

Or what she was even like or her name... My father refuses to speak about her."
Penelope turned her head to focus her gaze on Crow. She listened to him talk about his beliefs with interest. It was something new to her. She had been brought up on the belief that those who had passed moved on to a new place entirely. Somewhere that their souls could rest for eternity. It was interesting to think that the stars were those who had passed.
The only thing that amazed her more was the fact that they were able to talk like this. They had been enemies up until a few days ago and she would likely mocked him if he spoke of such beliefs during the earlier part of their journey. But she would never do that now. Penelope took him and his words seriously when he spoke like he was now. Perhaps it was foolish of the knight to trust the word of a man who has only been known to lie and cheat but Penelope disregarded such thoughts.
“The night sky would not nearly be as bright if it only had the constellations.” Penelope said as she met his gaze. “So in that way...there is no such thing as someone being unimportant... Even a thief that’s not as selfish as he thinks.” She added the last part with a soft smile. It had been something she had noticed within the days they had traveled together, but the thief was rather generous and kind to the peasants they came across. His small deeds of handing some of his food to the young servers had not gone unnoticed by the knight, along with the help he had given her at times.
She turned her head and looked out at the sky. Penelope let out a quiet sigh as her smile slowly faded and her gaze became somber. Someone whom she hadn’t thought about in years suddenly crossed her mind. It was her mother. Her green gaze searched the sky as she wondered if her mother was a star somewhere. “I wonder if she watches me.....” She mumbled aloud. The knight blinked realizing she had spoke her thoughts out loud. Her trance like gaze at the sky quickly broke as she turned to look back at Crow. “Ah, sorry.... I got a bit lost in thought there...” She said with an embarrassed expression.
