Tapping the Giant

Target sighted: the orange giant. Completely silent. Not moving. I took three paces forward across the paper sheet. Tap, tap, tap. Still stable. I reached out one paw. Gently poked its smooth leg. Hard plastic. Solid base. Then, an object nearby caught my eye—a metal paperclip twisted half-open. Perfect lever. I nudged the metal curve right up against the orange figure's foot to test if it could interlock. It stayed upright. First structural alignment complete.
