Hunter slides the crown up his arm, brushing his thumb across it in a soft comfort.
And then Edwin will feel everything about Hunter flicker and glow, starting near his heart and bursting out all at once in a brilliant flash - not yellow, but gold - and around them the world seems to...
Not quite pause. But slow. That or he and Hunter are going very, very fast.
Just for a second, though, and then the door is slamming closed behind them, as they stand in the muggy greenhouse of Edwin's cabin. "Sorry-!" The apology from Hunter is quick - he made himself jump a little with the slam. "I didn't mean to make that so loud, h-hold on."
There's a flurry of movement from Hunter, a short cheep from Flapjack and another flicker of gold - magic - through him, starting in his core and shooting through Flapjack - and then there's a bright blaze of delight through Hunter.
"Okay." And he slips Edwin's crown off, resting it lightly on a cushion. "You can come out now."
He does, the way his tentacles and robe start to spin themselves into existence looking a little bit like a nest of yellow snakes slowly venturing out from a nest. Even though he knows the darkness is outside of the cabin, even though he can feel that the pressure of it has slacked off, been closed away, he's still frightened.
