Penelope frowned at the female thief, not appreciating her words. Was it inevitable for Crow to go back to her? She didn't think so but the confidence Rikki had made her second guess herself, wondering if there was something she was missing or forgetting. The knight didn't dwell on it long though as Crow turned back to her with a grin. She returned his grin and nodded her head. "Tha'k the gods." she said with a chuckle.

As a silence fell over them, she swept her gaze over the tavern, noting that Gavin was off talking with some villagers at a different table. The knight suddenly felt a note of sympathy for her ex-suitor, realizing that he was alone as he spoke with the villagers. She hoped that he wasn't having too bad of night despite everything. Her attention was soon drawn away from Gavin as Crow spoke up again and pulled her into his lap. She smiled brightly at his words and closed her eyes as he kissed her again. She slid one hand to rest at the nape of his neck, lightly toying with his hair as they kissed.

"Oi, don' forget yer not the only ones around." Olivia snickered.

Penelope blinked and pulled back from the kiss to look over at Olivia. Her friend was leaning heavily against the table besides where Alistair sat and seemed to have just taken notice of the two. "Sorry." she giggled with a hint of embarrassment.

"Looks 'ike somen's been drinking." Olivia smirked and and crossed her arms over her chest. Her gaze flickered over to Crow and her smirk widened. "'nd i's not jus' Penelope this 'ime."

Oh ok lol

Penelope leaned against Gavin as the male knight lead them back over to the table. She was rather grateful for his help and soon any frustration she had felt towards him previously was gone as he moved the chair back to let her sit down besides Crow. She shifted clumsily into the chair and looked up at her comrade with a smile. "Tha'ks Gavin. See I knew wer still frie'ds for a reason."

Gavin looked down at her and let out a soft sigh. "You never could hold your drinks very well." he said with a hint of amusement. The male knight paused as his gaze shifted over to Crow, quickly turning serious again. "Now stay here while I go talk with the villagers.." he muttered before turning and walking off. Penelope gave a small nod and turned back to Crow, finding that Rikki had shifted closer to him.

Upon seeing the female thief, a stab of discomfort hit the knight. At first, it was foggy to her why she wasn't fond of Rikki but soon she noticed the way her hand was resting on Crow's leg. She was close to saying something—having not paid any attention to the conversation between the two—but didn't get the chance as Crow turned and suddenly kissed her again. She smiled against his lips and kissed him back. As he pulled back, Penelope grinned back at him and wrapped her arms loosely around his neck as she pressed closer to him.

When Rikki spoke up again, she blinked, momentarily surprised. Having been a bit caught up in the kiss, she had forgotten Rikki was still there. Penelope pulled back from Crow slightly to peak around him at Rikki. "Gods I don' like you.." she sighed with a small frown. The knight smirked as an idea came to mind and shuffled her chair up against Crow's. Once she felt stable enough, she drew her legs up onto his, knocking Rikki's hand off of his lap in the process.

"There're no tu'ns. 'nd 'm not goin' nowhere." she slurred waving her hand at the thief dismissively.

Penelope tried to help xD

Penelope glanced over at Crow as she noticed the thief suddenly get up to face Gavin. The drunken knight blinked and twisted slightly in her chair so she was able to watch the two, feeling uneasy about the situation in front of her. She leaned against the back of her chair and nodded her head in agreement, smiling up at Crow as he rested a hand on her shoulder. However, it seemed her agreeing with the thief hadn't helped the argument much as Gavin tried to approach her only to be cut off by Crow.

The knight frowned as she noticed Crow getting more aggressive and Gavin insist he knew what was best for her. She didn't like the argument, believing it wasn't fair for either of them to decide what was best for her when she could do it on her own. Penelope opened her mouth to protest but faltered as she noticed both men clenching their fists. Gavin regarded Crow with a cold gaze, seeming tempted to strike the drunken thief. Before he could though, Penelope stumbled out of her chair and over to Crow's side, swaying unstably as she moved slightly in front of him in a protective manner.

"Don' be s'upid." she growled at Gavin. "I'll fi'ht you if you h'rt 'em."

"I wasn't the one looking for a fight." Gavin stated with a glare at Crow. He let out a long exhale and focused his gaze on Penelope. Noticing her still swaying on her feet, he stepped closer to her. "Come on, let's get you back to the table so you can sit down." he said in a softer tone, offering her his arm.

Penelope eyed him warily before turning to glance over at Crow before meeting Gavin's gaze. "'m s'll with 'em." she replied with certainty as she misunderstood the gesture and shifted closer to Crow.

"I'm aware." Gavin grumbled then shook his head. "You can barely stand on your own, I'm just going to help you over to our table so you can sit down and I can take over this interrogation." He lifted his gaze away from her to glare at Crow. "Since I doubt he can help you much while he's drunk as well."

Penelope hesitated before nodding her head. She doubted she could make it over to the table on her own and she wasn't sure Crow could help her much. The knight took his arm but turned to reach for Crow's hand as well.

Penelope enjoyed it xD But Gavin didn't lol

Penelope gave a small nod as Crow waved off her concerns. "I guesss so." she agreed with a small shrug. Unable to think of any reason to disagree, she was quick to side with Crow. Gavin had been hard on him the whole time so why should they do what he said while the male knight was acting so annoying? She didn't dwell on the question long, soon forgetting any concern about it as the thief spoke up again.

At his flirtatious words, the knight noticed her face felt warm, though it was difficult to tell if it was from the compliments or the alcohol. Regardless, she returned his grin with a smile, feeling a swell of affection for the thief. He really was quite charming. As he closed the distance, Penelope eagerly kissed him back, barely taking notice of the whistling villagers and even less aware that they were making a bit of a scene. She eventually pulled back, grinning at him absently. "Wow." she breathed softly. She wondered if kissing him always felt like that, although she couldn't really recall.

Her heart was hammering in her chest and she had enjoyed the feeling of his lips against hers. Her gaze drifted to his lips again and she began to lean in to kiss him again, only to stop as another voice caught her attention.

"What the hell are you doing?" Gavin growled, looking accusingly at Crow as he walked up to them. Clearly their little scene had caught his attention and the male knight wasted no time in storming over. Penelope looked over at him confusedly, not understanding why he was so upset. They hadn't caused any trouble that she was aware of.

"Nothin'. Why?" she asked him, tilting her head slightly.

Gavin blinked and eyed the two of them for a moment before glaring at Crow. "Damnit did you get her drunk too?"

Penelope was relieved that Crow seemed confident that he could still handle the interrogation. She was about to relax a little until the villager spoke up again and included Crow in the drinking. The effects of the drink were already making her head feel a bit fuzzy but she was still clear-headed enough to know that Crow drinking more wasn't a good idea. The knight frowned as she looked over at Crow, wishing she could think of some way to get him out of it. However, unable to, she let out a small sigh as he downed part of his drink.

She looked back over at the villagers and leaned slightly against the table. "Sooo you 'old you guys somethin'?" she asked them, trying to focus back on the matter at hand before she drank anymore of her drink. She was already beginning to slur after finishing a little less than half of it.

"Hm?" one man grunted an eyed her. "'Bout what?"

"I dunno.." Penelope frowned and glanced between the other villagers. She couldn't recall specific details but she knew it was something she was suppose to ask about for the interrogation. Her gaze landed on the woman who she remembered whispering something to the man besides her. "She's 'he one who said somethin' bout it I know."

The woman blinked and shifted in her seat a bit before shrugging her shoulders. "Who knows! I'm dru'k." she said with a dismissive wave. The villagers gave a small chorus of laughter before lifting their mugs up to drink again. Penelope joined them without reluctance this time, feeling there was no reason not to, and finished off what was left of her drink. She set the mug back down and shifted her gaze over to Crow. She paused then leaned a little closer to him.

"I don' think we're doin' good huh?" she slurred with a small frown. Having finished off her drink, the alcohol was beginning to affect her rather quickly. The knight found herself a bit unsure of what they were even supposed to do at the moment. However, she knew drinking was not part of it. She groaned and ran a hand through her hair. "Gavin's gonna be pissseed.."
