Sunshine starts a little as the knife drops, but it's not like they're going to lose it in the darkness, so she keeps her distance while Bee reassures her little - what is that, even? - that everything's okay. She feels bad for reacting with so much, uh… vehemence... but this is probably less embarrassment than they all would have felt if he'd actually succeeded in his attempt to nuzzle her (objectively cute as that would have been).

When Simonides finally lifts his head, Modomnoc risks flying over. There's not as much space for him to land as before, but the light from her knife at least allows him to see what he's doing, so he's able to alight on Simonides's head. "It's fine," he says, thrumming his wings, warming the other dæmon's fur. "Really. Could've been worse."

Sunshine pulls a wry smile at that. "Spike accidentally smacked Dom halfway across a room last time. This was nothing."
