In five words or less, start a fight (in character) that is not political or physical.

Sunshine feels that pressure on her will, feel her hands begin to move. She's felt similar to it, before -

(His will closed upon hers like a steel clamp, stifling all thought.)

(Resisting the pull to meet that awful gaze felt like willing her heart not to beat.)

- and the sunlight web set into her skin, previously quiescent and faint, flares into life in response, the light and heat of its red-gold corona lifting her hair to blend in with the flames blazing there.

The benefit to being very familiar with the Milliways kitchens is knowing where everything is. Which includes, of course, every last knife.

...which are making an appearance now, lifting from their knife-blocks and cabinet drawers, their tips pointing inexorably at the figure in front of Sunshine.

"No-- no -- no violence in the bar! No vioLENCE in the BAR!" Vex's voice ratchets up squeakily and he dropped his tenuous control of her limbs and lifted his arms to shield himself FROM KNIVES???? "I was just playing, love, really! Blood King's balls, girl!"

"I don't play. Not like that," she replies. "Keep your will out of other people's minds."

"Duly noted! Keep the hands in my pockets at all time, you got it, Sunshine." Vex obedient turns to sitting down at the bar and keeping his hands below it. (He's not even fiddling with himself, so that's definitely good behavior.)

If he could sweat, though, he'd absolutely be soaked with it.
