EN: to close one's eyes
What you do when the scary part of a horror movie comes on. Or when your crush is walking towards you and you suddenly pretend to be looking for something in your bag. It's the first step to sleeping, praying, or wishing on a birthday candle.
Distinct from `ipikit` (to close one's eyes on purpose) and `pumikit` (the general act of closing eyes). `Magpikit` implies a more deliberate or sustained closing of the eyes.
