She can afford her that, if they really are, verbal confirmation and all, friends. Which is when she gets an idea: perhaps patience is actually the thing that she'd need most right now?

"I get it. Kind of." Lilith edges backward in her chair a little. It's an attempt to give Maketh just a little more breathing room. "So, since you say you're not well... d'you want to hang out here until you are? I can't do much more than keep you company, but it's on the table."
