[Shinx has learned from the mistake of its fellow. When the fireball comes its direction, it deftly hops to the side before launching itself at Cecilia and her staff. Its strategy is clever - it attempts to Bite her hand so she'll release the source of her attacks. The Growl isn't fully registered at this time, though it will mitigate the pain of the attack somewhat.
Luxio seems ready to chance it. There comes another roar of anger and it attempts to buck off Apollo despite the danger of the knife. It seems to be unfazed by the threat and spurred by the thought of something worse than suffering a stab wound. Besides, his hand was twitching so much he probably couldn't even exert that much force.
But for the first time, there is a flicker now of fear registering in its emotions. From the Shinx, too, if Apollo can concentrate on anything other than Luxio. The fear doesn't seem to be for itself so much as... detached, placed elsewhere.
Having gotten back to his feet, Lucas will step behind Cecilia to stretch a hand towards Raftina.]
