Walter's person

Walter's person resides in House No. 2, along with Walter.

He seems to be asleep most of the time, in the story he sleeps in an armchair in front of the fireplace and is only woken up when a fight between Walter and Toby ensues. Toby thinks he is dead and wants to eat him, Walter attempts to stop him and wakes his person up in the process. Afterwards, he goes for a walk with Walter to cheer him up.

When Walter laid down on his lap, he immediately feels tired as well. It is not clear if this is because something about the armchair they're resting on or about the person is special, or if Walter is just exhausted from his day. Walter does not seem to sleep on the person's lap overnight, as he comes down from upstairs in the morning.
