Eight limbs

I seized the roof and lifted it with more ease than I'd ever lifted anything as Glory Girl. It wasn't that I was stronger- I wasn't. But having eight extremities to balance out the distribution of weight meant it didn't crumble to anywhere near the same degree when I held it up.

I threw it aside with more violence than was necessary.

I lifted up sections of wall, forming a rough pyramid around myself. Cover while I changed into my costume. Even while I did it, I was aware of every little detail and item, recognizing where it had come from. Trinkets, decorations, drawer handles.

We're all cast out into the cold. It's only fair.

When I was dressed, I thrust the walls away, sending some sliding out into the void, others flipping across the street.
