"Mhmm," Elliot only gave her a look as if she was lying to her own self, "I heard you wanted to join the council."
"Ah, yes. I did think about it," Penny agreed on what he had heard was true, "But I dropped the idea of it," they had started to walk down the corridor again.
She heard Elliot comment on it saying, "It is a wise decision. If you want to keep your mental peace then one shouldn't enter the council. Truthfully, stepping any close is not good either but you are already in the mix. So welcome to this side of the dark life."
"All of you make it sound so bad," she said with a small frown. She realized she had been frowning a lot lately. Damien had said the same to her.
"You don't feel like your life has changed?"
Penny made her expression turn to as if she was thinking hard about it before shaking her head, "No."
"No? Well, that is a surprise," Elliot gave her a surprised look as if he didn't expect that to be her answer.
