Guppy and Hannibal spent a fair amount of time working on Sunshine yesterday, and she is currently resting in one of the beds.

She could probably do with some gentle company.

"Yes, too bad," she echoes, quietly.

"I hope everything goes smoothly in Lucas' world. He's going to... New Pork City, right?"

"As far as I know, yes," Autor says, stuffing his flare-up of nerves. Her echoing makes him wonder if he'd said the wrong thing, again. Probably.

And now he's not sure what to say. "Do you know when you'll be released from the infirmary?" he asks, squinting at the sun jar he toys with.

"I don't know," she replies, reaching out a hand to the nearest jar, feeling its warmth against her palm. "But I mean to ask Dr. Lecter, next time he's in. The sunlight spells help, but I'm still not completely okay with the idea of sleeping overnight in a public space."

Her mention of Dr. Lecter's name gives Autor the sudden, sharp image of the man skulking in the hallway, overhearing everything.

The boy nods, watching her hand as much as he's able through the sunbeams. "I don't blame you," he murmurs. "Everyone's 'invited' into the infirmary, right?"

"It's public, yeah," she nods. "It's not like someone's room, or someone's house. Anyone can enter freely, and I'd feel much better sleeping on the far side of my wards."

"Maybe, if I'm around, you can use my carpet to float on up to your room without jostling you," Autor murmurs, staring at his knees. "In any case, I hope you're out of here soon."

The boy swallows, curling his shoulders. "But do you mind if I read in the corner or something until one of us has to leave?" he asks. "I won't be offended if you say no! It's kind of a strange request and you need privacy and I likely don't even have the right to ask given that I... well, that I yelled at you. Earlier."

"I hope I'm out of here, soon, too," she says, stifling a yawn because ow. "Not sure how well I can sleep with someone sitting in the room with me... and I kind of feel the need for another nap. You could bring those books we talked about? I might still be awake then."

The remark about him yelling, she rides right over.

"Certainly," he says, standing in an easy, fluid motion. His hunch isn't completely dissipated, but at least now he has something to do.

"Don't move," he says, with an attempt at a smile. "I'll be right back." He backs out of the room, and then books it to the library.

"I'll be here," she assures him, as he leaves.
