"She's okay." Kate's pretty sure of that. But she's also not gonna screw the kid up with her issues about getting her head shrunk. "But you can talk to her if you can catch her long enough. Go easy on the shrink stuff, though, okay? She's not a sociopath just because she punishes her friends with voodoo spoons in pickle jars. She's just..." God, why is she so protective of Lilo? It's not like Will's going to hurt her. But she can't help it. "Everything in her life is out of control. Doing things like feeding a fish to control the weather or the thing with the spoons, it's how she tries to have some control. I...used to do some pretty weird stuff too." She frowns then. "Which is totally a bad example, obviously, but I'm just saying. She's weird, but it's a good weird," Kate finishes lamely.
When she's done talking, and her arms are wrapped around her waist, she can feel her expression getting all twisted up. It's been hard getting Lilo to trust her and if she thinks Kate sicced Will on her as a shrink... Quietly, "Just be her friend, Will. She needs that more than a doc."
