**Penny and Deony** are orphaned teenage twins who were left on the doorstep of an elderly seamstress when they were babies. They took after their caretaker's skill and set up a clothing company, in which Deony stitches together clothes for Penny to market. Penny's playstyle has her moving blocks very quickly without much thinking ahead, and Deony takes time to set up complex chains. They switch who has control over the board every fifteen seconds.

In their story in Petal Crash, Penny and Deony decide to search for the Sacred Blossoms in order to find their biological parents. Neither of them actually care much about finding their parents, but both of them believe that the other wants the wish to come true. In the end, the Blossoms fail to grant their wish, due to it not being either of their desires, which is when they find out that neither of them cared about the wish all along. They choose to go home in the end, content with just having each other.

## Appearance

When it comes to appearance, other than their light skin tone, Penny and Deony do not have much in common. Penny has medium-length purple hair and green eyes. She has very good posture, standing up tall and bouncing on her feet. Deony has green hair that he wears in a bob and purple eyes. He has comparatively poor posture to Penny; he is seen slouching over.

Penny wears a white dress shirt with a green cape over it. She has a green dress and shoes with a matching color. She has a green beret with the twins' Sacred Blossom, a Peony, attached to it. Deony wears a purple dress with a white apron over it. He wears green shoes and a purple beret.

## Personality

Penny and Deony both have a large amount of passion for the fashion industry. Being raised by a seamstress, the two were able to hone each of their talents into creating a successful business. Penny is loud and brash, and as such, she manages the business side of their shop. She loves to act as a saleswoman for all of Deony's clothes. Deony is comparatively very quiet and focused, so he works in the back of their establishment, carefully stitching together outfits. Both of them seem to value earning money as their most important goal, and they are easily upset by fiscally conservative customers and people who walk into their store with no money, like Strelitz. Penny especially has a habit of guilt-tripping people like Ore Kid into spending money on their clothes by playing into their status as orphans.

## Relationships

### Each Other

Penny and Deony care deeply about each other. Both of them seem to believe that the majority of their success in the clothing industry came from the other twin. Because of this, both of them work very hard to make up for the perceived slack on their end. Even though they have polar opposite personalities, they hardly every get on each other's nerves. When they find out that they can use the Sacred Blossoms to reunite with their parents, both of them work really hard to gather the Blossoms not because they really care about meeting their parents, but because they are each under the impression that the other wants to meet them.

### Their Parents

Neither Penny nor Deony has strong feelings towards their parents. They do not seem to hold any negative judgement on their parents for abandoning them as shown by Penny willingness to wear her Peony, the only thing her parents gave her, on her beret. When they are confronted with the idea of finally meeting them, however, neither of them truly care about the idea.
