Edgard tip toes into wherever Skull may be residing at this moment. Skull appears to be asleep or at least motionless. He notices Skull's other Satinalia gifts spread around: a cap, a skateboard, a lazy susan. He keeps looking. Aha! There it is, the serving tray. Edgard strides over to it and has his hands on it.
The jar was dark when Edgard tiptoed in, but now that his back is turned, it begins to glow as the telltale green of veilfire lights within Skull's eye sockets. Oh, to be able to loom menacingly right about now...
"HELLOOOO EDDY. WHAT ARE YOU DOING?"
It's obvious what he's doing. That's not the point.
The Skull stares inscrutably at Edgard for a beat.
"IT CERTAINLY DOES NOW."
The uncomfortable scrutiny doesn't cease, especially when two cartoonishly googly eyeballs appear in Skull's sockets. Now there's no doubt that he is, in fact, lookin at you, kid.
Edgard picks it up. He looks towards the door. He could run for it. But that would also give him away. He should stay casual. He runs his fingers along the tray, examining it.
If Edgard was so easily able to fetch up the tray, clearly it's not being used to carry Skull around. And Skull has neither arms to lift the tray nor legs to ferry it around.

"Skull! I was checking to see whether your serving tray needed cleaning."
His voice is calm and cheery.

The cartoony eyeballs continue staring at Edgard.

"So, its not working well for you then? Could use some adjustments?"
Edgard is going to try hard to bullshit his way out of this one.
