Dangling...
Lex: At least the title sounds important.
Lionel: It's more than a title, it's an opportunity. It's what you've
been waiting for, ever since you came to Smallville.
Lex: I'll think about it.
Lionel: You want to keep me dangling (to keep him tensed?) so it looks like you're granting
me a favor instead of receiving one? We don't need to play games, son.
Lex: Dad. Games are all we've got. (Meaning "Why not"?)

Correct in both cases. "Danglin" is probably more "up in the air", without a positive answer. The person may then become tense.
