With no real answers as to why she is having such peculiar nightmares, Noone becomes desperate to find any logical reason that could help explain things, as the Counsellor continues to deny her seemingly illogical reasoning, such as her claims that the cure may be what is causing her nightmares, rather than the water sickness, as her life did not suffer a major change until she was chosen to be administered the cure and brought into the spotlight on television. Noone will occasionally fall into distress as she thinks about how her life has fallen into turmoil since falling ill with the water sickness. Regardless of being told the cure for the water sickness has wiped it out of her system, she knows the cure did not work as she can still feel something lingering within her body, crawling, pulling at her organs and giving her a terrible itch. Noone has been shown to be somewhat paranoid, as she has stated several times that she believes the water sickness she suffered from is what is causing all of her recent nightmares. She is also shown to be persistent, as seen in the first chapter when she did not give up on trying to determine the shape that she saw in a painting. She is also very keen to her surroundings, making sure that the Counsellor was always listening to her stories at times when she felt that he was too busy taking notes. This is also demonstrated by her sophisticated analogies of the monsters she encounters in her nightmares and her ability to remember very specific details, such as words she didn't understand. Noone has been shown to be intelligent, as seen when she is able to draw parallels between her nightmares and the pain that she feels in her life in the Counties. Noone appears to have an aversion to her past, as she is reluctant to speak more about her old home and family when asked, specifically in regards to her mother, she relented that she would rather not speak on them. While she hesitates to talk about her condition at the start of the session, she quickly becomes more willing the more she understands the Counsellors room is a space to speak truthfully, revealing that she is comfortable with speaking her mind about herself and her life if given the chance, such as when she described her feeling of sadness when recounting how aphids devoured one of her flowers or her excitement when spotting a moth in The Counsellor's office. Noone is described as being a timid young girl. Some time after she got sick and was administered the cure, Noone began to have terrible nightmares which resulted in her being admitted to the Counties Psychiatric Institute, where she was assigned to be treated by a counsellor named Otto. Although the Counties had begun to administer the cure to others, and had no record of reinfection, Noone felt the cure did not work for her as she could still feel something inside her body, but with no one to trust, she kept things to herself. The children who would bully her everyday, had now made attempts to suck up to her, ignoring their past misdeeds towards her. Her television appearances had additionally changed her reputation in school. Her television appearances resulted in her life being controlled by others, to the point that she could no longer choose her own clothing as the television employees made the decision of what she should wear. Her new fame gradually began to change her life drastically. News of the cure inevitably became the center of attention in the Counties, throwing her into the spotlight, appearing on television regularly. While at some point she was recommended to go on a short vacation, she had also become the primary subject to undergo treatment for a newly developed cure for the water sickness. After falling ill with the "Water Sickness," Noone had begun to visit a doctor for her treatment, however, this doctor would conduct various procedures in order to treat her and better understand the sickness she suffered from. With no friends and a timid nature, Noone had become the center of ridicule among her schoolmates, who would taunt her and nickname her "No one", a name they would additionally scribble in her books. Noone lived a rather lonely and troubled life.
