[ Setting the knife on the ground beside them, she holds her hand out to summon another off the table to her. At first it appears perhaps to be a broken knife, just the hilt of one, and she toys with it in her hand for a moment as her gaze settles back on him. Surely a mere knife hilt is harmless, right? ]

[ Attention shifting from his face, Kylo presses her free hand to his injured shoulder, but not before tearing the hole in his shirt a little more so she can better see the wound she created.

She didn't want him bleeding out on her, but he didn't need to know that was half the reason for her changing knives. ]
