Not as much as Daniel thought it would, if only because Dylan saw through them.
"I went to one of the guys playing the other side," he told him, despite that, despite the scowl that had crept onto his face at the thought of Daniel trying to play him. "So, I'm pretty sure I'll get to keep what I've got, if only because they wanna see this place burn just as much as I do."
A beat. "It also has nothing to do with whether or not I can stop a bullet." Though, all things considered, he probably could if he chose his shift carefully. "It's more about -- well, shoot me and find out. Aim for the head."
This time, he did put power into his voice. This time, Daniel would do what he said without question or hesitation, whether he wanted to or not, and there was something intensely satisfying about that. Even if he planned on keeping the Horsemen close, now, there was something to be said for making someone else's body betray them, regardless of who they were.
