She notices him looking for a place to sit and sits down on the floor next to the bars. Not something she'd usually do, but she's in a jail, and stubbornly waiting for a chair won't do anyone any good. She gestures for him to sit down next to her, nothing but the bars between them.

As much as she hates a prison, she actually imagines it would be harder for him, for an extended period of time, at least. He doesn't like to be unstimulated while she just hated being caged.
