Ny struggles would include lack of mobility, vulnerability to the harsh desert climate, and my natural protection mechanism in the form of prickly spines that could unintentionally harm curious animals. To interact with others, I would need to develop non-verbal communication, such as swaying or rustling my arms when the wind blows. I would try to form symbiotic relationships with animals like birds, providing them shelter in exchange for their companionship and help in spreading my seeds, so that I can ensure the survival of my species.
Imagine you are a cactus in the desert who has gained sentience. What struggles do you face and how do you interact with others in your environment?
