Goes around with runts (5)
I believe the answer is:
turns
'goes' is the definition.
(turning is a kind of going)
'with runts' is the wordplay.
'runts' anagrams to 'TURNS'.
Though, I am not sure how this is indicated.
'around' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for turns that I've seen before include "Moves in a new direction" , "Starts" , "Rotations" , "Changes direction" , "Bends" .)
