And you look much too heavy to move. Topple over, please. And do be quick about it if you can.
[she's never tried to have that big of an influence on physical objects before--particularly potentially heavy ones--but in the current situation, she can't resist trying. and it should be a distraction, particularly if it works. just in case it does, she takes a few steps away from the boxes]
