Lemm sleeps by no clock, since there's none that matters in the City of Tears. He eventually emerges groggily into the kitchen and stops to clean up the soggy remnants of cup and curtain from the previous night.
The cup is examined for its chip and then set gently aside. It's still a nice cup. Shame it's had a few hundred geo knocked off its value, but it will still hold tea.
The curtain is rinsed with cold water - the tea disappears among the wet fabric, though he knows it will be stained when it's dry - and then is carried in a bundle into the main shop.
The Hollow Knight might notice Lemm flashing them a furtive glance as he steps in, confirming that not only are they still here but also they are still alive and... Lemm is learning that "well" is relative in this case, but nonetheless!... And those are... a lot of interesting pieces on his desk suddenly.
He has a plan. He will address this later.
"I'm going on a walk to the Resting Grounds. Maybe you'd like to come," he suggests, somewhat flippantly.
He's had some time to sleep on it all. Things still don't make complete sense, but Lemm has at least found some semblance of initiative to take.
