A very unpleasant feeling is beginning to crawl through Lemm at the utter lack of a response this time.
He shifts slightly, the subtle motions of a bug in quiet discomfort in direct contrast to this vessel's eerie stillness. The Knight was so much more animated than this...
Wrestling with some mental fact-checking and a private inner debate, Lemm's head turns to stare off in the direction of his shop. He's thinking about the statue. He's also thinking about how likely it is that a delegation from Deepnest might come to meet the Hollow Knight here; and whether they'd take more offense at Lemm opting to meddle versus taking no action at all.
Well. He's not in a rush to figure this out, and the most obvious temporary answer is currently in his hand.
"If you're waiting for something, I've nowhere to be." This is true. "I'm not usually this neighbourly, though." ...Even truer.
Without much fanfare and even less of an explanation, Lemm turns and steps back to fall in line beside the crouching form of the Hollow Knight, shakes out his umbrella, and puts it up. He holds it over... most of them, and the rain patters a little louder against the treated material instead of their damp robe.
Lemm himself is quite content to keep getting rained on. That's basically what he came out for.
