What type of irony is this?

I'm writing a fic for a friend of mine. The current situation is that the starring OC is now shrunken down to a centimetre tall, and trapped in Fluttershy's salad bowl as Rainbow Dash and Fluttershy have a meal together at a cafe:

 

~~~

 

"Fluttershy, there's really no need to act like one of those Canterlot snobs," said Rainbow. "But anyway, how are things going for you and your animal friends?" she went on.

 

Just then, Fluttershy's giant fork stabbed a leaf a few centimetres away from Rising, who let out a pitiful squeak of surprise and hid under a bunch of leaves.

 

"They're okay, as per usual," said Fluttershy. "But I have to be careful of the small ones. Because of how tiny they are, there are so many things that could happen to them. They could get crushed..."

 

The enormous fork was brought down to Rising, who rolled out of the way in the nick of time.

 

"Or eaten..."

 

Rising cringed as he heard Fluttershy's mouthful of salad go *crunch* in her mouth.

 

"Even though I keep the tiny, vulnerable creatures in enclosed areas, I still worry about them. Who knows? Maybe somehow, one of them is fighting for their life as we speak!"

 

~~~

 

I know that this is irony, something which I hope I can come up with more of, but what type specifically?

Dramatic Irony, since the audience is aware of information that the characters aren't. Like McBeth, only with more salad forks. Or possibly, less salad forks... Shakespeare is confusing...


Happy minion of The Fabulous One!
