The Pilgrim's terrible clawed feet flex like those of a bird that's about to launch itself at your face because you're too close into its comfort zone. Like a goose, but with talons that could hoe a cornfield. Not because Lily asked to come with him, no, that's good. If Lily's with him, nothing can happen to Lily. And he won't have to do the talking. Looking like... well, looking like an American.

On the other hand. Edmund's expecting us. Let's go to a secondary location while you're still holding the piece of fairy paper that ensures the safety of everyone in Prosperpine and thus responsible for its safekeeping because nothing bad has ever happened to someone who goes out of their way to relax before they're done with their job. There's hair standing up on the back of his neck, and not just because of the hair gel.

He nods, once, but also he did just flex his talons like he was about to do a cassowary kick through a windshield, so, uh, interpret that how you will, Lily.
