He always tells Tav they should rule together, whether they're his spawn or not. A Tav who is only friends with him enslaves him when they take over the brain; that doesn't mean it was the outcome he wanted or saw coming either. Being subjugated again is not what he is expecting when he says they should rule together. Absolute Tav and tadpoled AA would become a completely different dynamic that doesn't have much to do with a Spawn Tav and AA relationship during/after the game anymore.

Yes, he wants to rule together, but it doesn't mean that Tav has to go along with it. He's putting immense trust in them. He has to be prepared for some power play, he also jokes about Durge sitting on his lap when they threaten him. He doesn't mind being challenged in some instances and even finds it funny. How is him putting his life in somebody's hands ok but him not having a problem with being asked for a gentler kiss not?
