Zari only responds to Tony's question with a flat look. It really isn't important! Quickly both siblings exchange a look at Tony's follow-up. The truth is neither of them thought to explore it. Behrad is honest enough to admit this much: "Hypothetically we could both wield it. The Jiwe ladies exchange their totem depending on where it's needed most. They've never tried to wield it together." He glances Zari's way. Zari betrays some of her nervousness by crossing her arms over her chest, but with a small nod admits she's open to trying.
Behrad is willing to let her do that much before circling back to Tony's other question. "You mean John? He always says that. You just have to wear away at him like water hitting beach on the sand." Behrad grins at the sweet metaphor as Zari rolls her eyes.
"I'll talk him into it. There's no way he can resist my effortless charms." She flips her hair, easily shoving that moment of vulnerability away. Her brother is clearly skeptical. "Have you even had a single conversation with him since you came on the ship?" Zari shakes her head, but doesn't seem the least bit concerned about that. "I convinced 51 million people to listen to me. I can handle a guy who wears the same outfit every day." Zari glances back at Tony and winks. "I've got your back, Potts. He'll be on the team in no time." You know. That one her brother doesn't want her on. The one she is swiftly becoming an MVP for.
