Let's play pretend, shall we? So, hypothetically, there's this little they/them named Astrix. Now Astrix didn't feel safe at home at the time so they ran off to the neighborhood, hoping someone would notice them and make them feel safe. Now, let's pretend that Astrix walked 2.5 miles barefoot (because they couldn't get shoes) and no one noticed them. And hypothetically, what would they do next? And let's just say, they're sitting at a pond with limited battery in their phone and earplugs.
Update: Let’s say hypothetically, their feet hurt and their pretend parents are mad at each other.
