This was probably the first time Graph had decided to leave her room since she had come to stay at the Happy Home. But she simply had to get away from the catepilars she was sure had infested her mattress. Her little gaurdian hadn't come back either, to save her from the dreams... So she found herself what had been called the Common Room, with a TV, a few games, magazines that were several months old. And it was empty. So it wasn't a vast improvement over her room, since she was still alone, but... At least there weren't any caterpilars.

Autumn had only been to the Happy Home twice before- once when she was given her medication, and once when she'd gone to that tea party- but every time she was there, it amazed her with how large it was. One could easily get lost...and lost, somehow, she'd become. She'd come today to have a check-in (something she was rather nervous about...what if they took Ati away from her?), and had lost her way, wandering into the residential area.
"Hey look~!" Ati called suddenly, pointing to a blank expanse of wall, and then dashing into it. Of course, no matter how hard she stared, Autumn couldn't see into the wall...and so, she found herself timidly calling Ati's name, and racing along the hall after the sound of his laughter, until she reached a door. Without thinking, she burst inside, scolding irritably "Ati! You know I...! Oh...I..uhm..." She trailed off with a grimace, for Ati appeared not to be the only occupant of the room. Oops.

Graphophobia looked up from the old magazine she had been looking through just in time to see- someone run through a wall? Squeaking, she dropped the magazine, and leaned forward to peer at the see-through boy. "Ah... Hallo," she said finally after blinking several times, just to make sure she wasn't seeing things. A real person- at least, she assumed the girl was real- entered the room then as well, and it seemed as though the two were together. "Erm, hallo. To both of you." Quite honestly, she wasn't sure what she was supposed to think, after seeing a boy walk through a wall.

"Both of...Oh! You can see him too...you...what are you here for?" After all..everybody else who'd been able to see Ati so far had been a patient here, so it was pretty safe to assume that this girl was too...right? "I am...terribly sorry to bother you.." she murmured, shooting a glare at Ati before smiling in what she hoped was a friendly manner.
"Terribly sorry..." Ati repeated, diving to hide mostly behind Autumn, his hand reaching through hers both in apology and the need for reassurance. Autumn sighed and did her best to squeeze his hand. "This is Ati..." she told the other patient softly, "And I'm Autumn."

Graphophobia was amused to see the boy go to hide behind the girl. He was see-through, after all. Why would he hide behind someone from this world. How was she supposed to take all of this? Deciding to simply roll with the punches. "I'm Graphophobia," she told the girl who had called herself Autumn. "It's nice to meet you," she said to both of them, giving a short bow at the waist. "I'm here for insomnia- and seeing things."

"Almost everybody here sees things..." Autumn commented with a shy smile, making a small guesture to Ati (who immediatly shrunk back even more). "I'm here...partly...for sleeping disorders, as well.Are you...I mean...are you staying here, at the Home? Would you be allowed to come out with Ati and I...I mean, if you want to. I just thought that it might be...a bit boring, sitting here all by yourself..."

Graphophobia's eyes winded a little when she was invited to go along with the girl, and the see-through boy that accompanied her. They wanted to hang out with her? Shrugging, she nodded, and smiled a little. "Sure. That'd be better than being stuck in here all time." She grinned sheepishly. "Not to say that's the only reason I'll hang out with you. Oh, never mind. Open mouth, insert foot. Anyway."
