reflexively, Knife drops to a crouch with a mind to escape. being a bigger shape is good for separating themself from their most comfortable shape, but when it comes to being wigglier, more evasive? not great.
that's a lot of words to say that when Knife drops to roll between Barnabas' legs it's more like they roll into them. which is fucking annoying, but fuck it, they'll tackle into him, they'll elbow him in the groin on the way to scrambling out of the way, they'll do whatever! fuck it!!
they don't wait around for results or retaliating, disengaging out of swing reach so they can clamber back onto their feet, muttering a spell between general swears that sounds a distant bell when they throw their arm back Barnabas' way, gloomy sparks flickering his way. it's more of a warning shot than a sure hit, hoping for space.]
