Its hands seemed not to have moved since the last time she'd looked.

That hand seemed to have a brain of its own.

A powerful hand seemed to reach deep into her mind and take hold.

She was not that tall, but even her hands seemed long.

But her hands seemed to have a will of their own.

The hands of the wall clock seemed to stand still.

But for the rest of the day, and into the next, the second hand on her watch seemed to stand still.

Her hands seemed to have a life of their own.

The second hand seemed to be racing on his watch.

One hand does not seem to know what the other is doing.
