Ienzo looked at Nel, but addressed Ulquiorra's comment instead of her concern. He wasn't sure how much Marluxia would want him to say. The two weren't really allies, but they had come to an understanding. Enough of one for Ienzo not to want to bring his partnership with Lumi into question.
"It's best if they're here," he said, scowling. "If we're going to get Vexen to come with us, he needs to strike up a truce with Marluxia sooner rather than later or he won't agree to join at all, not knowing he's there."
That, however, was going to be the hard part. Marluxia had ordered Axel to kill Vexen just as Saix had ordered Axel to kill him. Ienzo held his elimination in Castle Oblivion against Saix just as much as Axel, but it wasn't the fact that Saix had ordered it that had forced him to leave, it was the fact that he'd kept that information hidden until he'd slipped up and revealed it unintentionally. The deception of the human had done more damage to any notion of trust within the Order than the plans of the Nobody.
He couldn't be sure that Vexen would feel the same, but it was worth appealing to his ego anyway.
"They'll never be allies, but they should be able to put their differences far enough aside that they are able to stay in the same Clan without trying to kill each other at every turn," he said, rather hoping that he was right about that.
