Look at what the old woman has got into the house. I don’t like it. If I look away will it be gone?

No such luck, my magic isn’t powerful enough

She put it on my floor!

Is it alive?

It doesn’t smell alive!

Look at it looking at me! No, I don’t like it! I’m going to sit under the couch for a while perhaps it’ll get bored and be when I come out.
See? Ignoring it did the trick!
