He nodded because it was nice to hear her speaking with such confidence like this. He thought about the time back in Belize and he knew that it was not a first but that had been a year or two ago easiest and now it was great to hear it while they were here. He however was a little surprised that she now actually seemed to want to include him in her plan. "I.." He closed his mouth because he did not feel like it would do any true good to protest against this. "Are you trying to play me?" It was a question that was indeed in the back of his head.
"I mean I do not think that I am against it but both of us need to know what kind of business relationship we are getting into because if we are honest it will not be long before one of us gets bored and holds a knife against the other one's throat just for some sort of evil kicks." He had hoped that Noah would be different but at the end of the day the same evil blood line ran through all of them and so he knew he had to watch it around her just as he supposed that she did around him. "I guess it could work but don't you want to see what I was thinking first or are you so stubborn that you are going to allow your mind to be made up as it stands now?"

"My mind has always been set to conquer." She smiled at him because she felt that while there were some things that you were just born with and for her that was one of them. "A lot of people say that but they do not really mean it well trust me when I tell you that I am completely different." The need to conquer did not just run through her on her father's side but her mother's as well and in her own twisted way she wanted to do them proudly.
"Unlike your fail of a mother I actually have something to be proud of and something that I want to look forward to helping to go past. I get this whole act that you are doing and I get why but at it's very best it is weak and I don't want a weak version of you because I know that there is more to you if you just gave a crap to try." It was always hard to push someone but she was looking to up her talking game and Dax seemed like the perfect person to try it out on. "I am going to be ready no matter the time or the day but I can not say the same about you."

He was honestly loving how hard she was becoming to read at least until she insulted him. "Wow," he said as he let her go on. The tension that was in the air was slowly turning into one of full on confrontation and insults even if all Dax did at the moment was smile. He unlike his sister would not use insults to get what he wanted because he had instead learned to ignore those and let his charm do all the work. "You are absolutely right Noah for I am such a peasant in a want to be queen's presence and the thing that makes it even harder to swallow is that if you truly were ready this would not be a conversation that would be, being had. I don't know how your brain codes it but I am simply going to call it fear of failure because as far as I can see that is exactly what it is."
He had hoped that the day would turn out nicer but no one ever really got what they wanted and he knew well enough that he should never expect to be an exception. "Having a fear of failure also makes you human and that is a good thing. When people stop feeling human the things that they do become bad and even if that is your end goal, it's not always a good idea to start that way."

"Letting those stupid human feelings control you also makes you weak Dax" She had paid attention more than most of her siblings which was why she knew that they were jealous of her. It had always been taught and expected that her father's next great heir would be a man but it was not. It was her and that as strange as it seemed to her male dominated gene pool was something that she liked. "If I wanted to be human I would not be here." That was the best that she could word it without making her brother feel bad. "I know right from wrong and that is how I keep myself on the correct path so isn't that enough?"
She would usually try to charm a man but Dax was her brother and besides of that she doubted that it would work. "How about we say that you help me and if I start to spin out of control then you can step in and stop me how you see fit? I feel that way you get to decide what is too much and neither one of us has to worry about any hurt feelings because I am giving you permission to stop me when I go to far in my quest to conquer and who would not want that?" Her brother might be more on the good side but he had the same DNA in him and that was what she was counting on.

He listened and then spoke. "I'd never do anything to stop you and that is where I think that the true problem lies. I mean I can stand here and say that I would but Noah you should know better than anyone else if you get me in on this and it starts actually hitting off then no way in the world will I stop you and then if it does not work out I will blame myself." Or as he liked to see it take it right from under those feet of hers. He had it all but he lacked the most important thing in a world such as this one. "What if we make an agreement right here and now that neither one of us will stab the other one in the back with the same swift motion that if we each get too far then we give the other one full permission to stop us even if it means taking the head off of the snake so to say."
He figured that she would want control over the situation and he had no problem giving it to her but he at least needed to make the terms equal. "I don't see why for as long as we are here and father is not that we can not work together and truly do it. I will do as I think you suggested and be your ears and eyes and you can do all the hard leg work."

She placed her freshly manicured nails under her chin as she thought about it. "I think that this is a first for us." Working together was not hard and in his own twisted way their father had wanted it for the both of them and all of their siblings but it had not always been something that they had taken upon themselves especially as they got older. "I'm up for it." She did not want to play any games with Dax because simply by looking at him she could see the potential past the pretty and she just had to get him to see it too.
"Does this mean I get to make you over especially since you usually end up giving me one and it would be nice to have it switched around for once." She already knew that he cleaned up well that was just another thing in a line of things that she had to get him to see. "Need to get you a little scruff and your hair trimmed just a little bit and I think that we would be good to go." She then went forward and hugged him. "We are the greatest thing to happen DNA wise now we just need to show everyone else."

"You sure do know how to talk a good game though I guess I should not be surprised by that at all." He liked them being able to talk and more than that them being free. "Alright I am in and without all the restrictions because I do not feel like anything or anyone needs to be restricted because I feel like it would be much like a snake. You know how they slither but you never know when they will strike?"
That had made sense in his head he only hoped that his sister could understand what he was trying to say. "Anyway look I really just want you to be happy and if I have to bend over and play bitch boy for you I guess I kind of owe it to you after everything." It was the first time that he could be considered as being serious which was something that he did not think that he would do often thankfully. "My only rule is really no makeover because I don't think that it could get as good looking with me as it already is." Ahh, there his confidence was and yet he did not want to show too much of it so he quickly bowed his head. "I just mean it's the Noah hour after all."

"It's never been the Noah hour" she said though the truth was that it pained her to admit that. "I just mean you are not the only one who went through things with Dad I just think that I chose to adjust to them instead of letting them hurt me and let it show. We were all just children he made without looking back because here or there we might have seemed perfect but the truth was that none of us were and that is why he kept creating us."
She did not know if this was the right time to bring it up and still she did feel like they needed to talk about it. "It is why I am choosing to make a small mark here Dax. In the end I don't want to be seen as something great but I will be damn if our father makes me feel like I am less of a person just because I did not meet the quota that he thought that I should have when I was born. He wanted us to have these issues or else he would have raised us with others that were not our siblings. I get being a close knit community but sometimes you need to get out and get to know others too or else you become an old man and life is done before you know it."

"It get what you are saying Noah but my life is good and I really mean that." He supposed that she had always cared for him but the truth was that he did not need her too but maybe it made her feel better. "Well we need to make that a thing then because I like the sound of it and I am going to make sure that you do as well."
He smiled and then felt it as it turned into a smirk. He knew that if his father could see this now then he might actually be a little more proud of the both of them and that made him even more proud as he took a second. "Your idea is solid and I was not trying to hold off on telling you I just want you to want to do it, if that makes sense." If she did not want to do it then he never thought that she would stay to pull it through during the hard times. "I mean everywhere you look it seems like everything is on fire and I don't want you to let that make you feel anything bad or even let it get to you and then you let anger fuel you and let that define you. That is what the Strife name has always been associated with but this time we are going to do it passionately and no one is going to step to us to stop it."

She did not know what had gotten into Dax but at least now he was talking more like she had expted to get from him. Maybe it was the fear of being somewhere knew but either way she could see her brother finally starting to come into his own and she loved that. "You are out here talking like you think that we as this version of the Strife family have a real chance now in your eyes."
That if true would be enough to put a fire in her that she felt she needed and to think that they could carve out their own way and finally let go of the lines in the sand bull was also something that made her excited. "I accept this ten times over and not even to be dramatic but I knew after a few days around me you would eventually come around and I am loving this." She could feel that famous seething that her mother had done so well starting to come out of her when she spoke as well. "All this time I thought I was the one behind one hell of a mirage and it turns out that it is you all along."
