In the Safe World, it was Fall.

Fall was good. She could concentrate okay in Fall. Very blustery day. That was all right. As the weird flashy lights from Uncle Eddie's Machine faded, Margery tried to remember the rules. It was safe here, but don't trust anyone who looks like Papa or Uncle Eddie or anyone in the family, because they're not. Everybody was different; everybody was new.

All the new people around here, however, were running away. "I don't want to hurt anybody!" Margery assured. But no one seemed to be listening.
