He'd expected her to be a harder sell and part of him is suspicious as to why she's not. Maybe she's just interested in keeping her life intact. There's not much most people wouldn't do to save their own skin. Or maybe she knows her back is against the wall and there's no options left except for him. Either way, it suits Ivar just fine to have things going his way.

He thinks on the rule she lays out. Drugs are always a money-maker, but she's right. He doesn't need people in the government getting too nosy about who's now pulling the strings behind the scenes. As long as everyone can be paid off, they should remain content to let her stay on the air. He nods. "Agreed. No drugs. Anything else you want to put on the table before we finalize terms here?"

He's all business the way he talks. He gets it from his father the weapons manufacturer mogul. There's not a lot that Ragnar Sigurdsson hasn't invested in on a legal front and his son has expanded on that on the illegal side of things too.

It was mostly that she was pretty well attached to her life and her way of life and was in no hurry to bring either one of those to a close, but it was also definitely a case of knowing that she didn't have many -if any- other options. She'd known even at the time -the week before, the incident that had apparently started all of this- but she'd done it anyway, because one of her 'subjects' had needed help, and she was in a position to do so.

She tilted her head once more, regarding him again, "I do have just a couple of questions." She wasn't going to ask 'why me?' because he'd already said he was a fan and that was good enough for her, "Aside from my continued relevance, what do I get out of this partnership? And if I take the channel in a slightly different direction, what would that cost me?" As much as she liked being one of the pretty idols that doled out fashion and makeup and modification tips, she actually wanted to help.
