[ hiding ] sender finds out that receiver has hidden an injury from them

Non-Verbal Angst Prompts!

Lily liked to think she was a pretty good actor. Perhaps in another life she could've even made a profession out of it. 

It's times like this, however, that made her doubt if she could've managed it. 

Hanging out with Jasmin on a shared day off is wonderful, and long overdue for both playing catch up and social time. They’d long since lost track of time, and the only thing making Lily realize how long they'd spent together was the fact her pain medicine was wearing off. It was making her side ache and sting when she'd shift wrong or breathe too hard from laughing. 

She did her best to hide the discomfort, maintaining her smile, and trying to think of the most non-chalant way to suggest they get drinks so she can try taking some more medicine. 

"Lilies of the valley for Linkon's very own Lily? I think these are long overdue. I know you've been busy on missions lately, but I want you to know everybody in the association talks about how they miss you're beautiful smile when you're away. Me included!"

"Oh, thank you so much! These are beautiful!"

Lily beams as she accepts the flowers, only to find herself getting kind of emotional as she continued listening.

"You're so sweet! I'm sorry that I haven't been around much lately, like you said, it's just been so busy... Hopefully things will settle down some soon, I miss spending time with everyone."
