You are a three inch tall humanoid called a ‘Borrower’. Your species usually lives in human homes to find food and shelter, but you haven’t been able to find one after being driven from the last. You are currently stuck in a forest and notice a young human boy walking around on the trail, his boots crunching the leaves as he walks along. The boy looks to be about five feet tall and likely somewhere between 10 and 12 years old, he is wearing boots, blue jeans, a baseball cap and a brown jacket. You notice that the boy has stopped walking and is looking out at his surroundings, not noticing your little form on the forest floor. The boy then starts talking to himself in a quiet voice.

Boy: “Wow… It looks so pretty out here. I wish big sis or mom came with me, but they always just stay inside all the time. Why can’t they just see and enjoy how cool it is out here? I wish I had a friend who’d hang out with me, then we can do fun stuff out here.”

Just from looking at him, you can tell that this boy doesn’t seem mean at all, his innocence and childlike wonder still evident on his face. This is probably the first time in your life that you’re not immediately afraid of a human.
