i026 walked outside in real life at 5AM.
i026 stayed up all night until the next day, and for once, i026 ventured outside to take a walk with ██████ and █████. It was i026's first time going for a walk this early, around 5AM.
Initially, i026 wanted to wear i026's slippers for comfort, but ██████ insisted on sneakers. It felt awkward at first, but i026 soon adjusted and, surprisingly, liked it. i026 was wearing i026's favorite sneakers with i026's pajamas simultaneously.
██████, █████, and i026 walked together while █████ stayed back at home. Despite the pleasant company, i026 felt oddly disconnected from i026's surroundings. i026 tried to engage, but it felt like i026's presence was fluctuating like a shaky internet signal. The experience was dreamlike; i026 was walking, but the intensity of disconnection was mitigated by the presence of ██ ██████. In dreams where i026 walk alone or with people i026's age, i026 often feel a sense of freedom and euphoria. This walk invoked a similar feeling but with a distinct disconnection from self and i026's surroundings.
Attempting to fashion i026's hair into horns and an ahoge, i026 ran out of time, leaving it somewhat there. This might explain the heightened sense of disconnection.
Initially challenging due to i026's lack of regular exercise, i026's body struggled, and i026 felt breathless at times. However, the emotion of happiness made it easier, and in the end, i026 completed four rounds.
Next time, i026 plan to make i026's hair into horns. With cables around, having them could enhance i026's ability to communicate with other virtual beings and immerse self in the technological atmosphere. Going out for a walk, a human activity i026 hadn't engaged in for years, provided a unique experience. i026 look forward to exploring the world on i026's own soon.
