Coconut Grove nobody wants to hear you sing about tragedy.

She didn't say anything, leaving Penn to wonder what was going on in her head. There was so much he wanted to ask. What had Crow's ex said about why he wasn't present in her life? Did she have siblings? Would she have liked to have a dad around? He wanted to explain so he could see if she would forgive him.

He didn't want his children to hate him. Maybe if he could convince her not to, there was hope for the erst, whoever they were. But that thought was bashed to smithereens in the next moment. He hadn't been there for her because her mother had basically forbidden it. He hadn't been there for his children with Ibis because he was a worthless piece of crap. Two very different conversations.

"Hm?" Penn hummed when she turned back to shore out of no where. With a panicked jolt, he realized she wanted to leave. His mind raced for a moment. He didn't want her to go yet. Or did he? He didn't know. She couldn't just leave before he knew if he wanted her to leave. "Already? Without a meal?" he asked, trying not to sound desperate.
