Cer listened to Jackson's concerns and caught his glare, she stared right at him and smiled, if he though he could intimidate her he had another thing coming. At least this was evidence his guard was already up and he was being rather protective. She could work with this. "Oh Jackson, you're still rather naïve aren't you? A lot of what goes on in this place is going to be above your head, the difference between this place and others is if you tried to leave, they would let you. Whether or not that's a good idea is for you to decide. I know about your past, well some of it the files are a bit spotty. You lack focus to use your power properly, and trust me I know more about it than you would think." Her smile turned a bit more sly and she said quietly, "I know plenty about split personalities too, I think you'd be surprised how similar we are." She stopped to let him process, an image of a teenaged version of herself popped into her head. She'd been much worse, Avarice had almost won back in those days. This was no time to be reminiscing, this kid was going to worse in different ways.

"You need a reason? I need a reason to trust you too don't I? You've had it pretty rough but you're in no place to make demands, if you don't want to learn how to control your powers then I have no business forcing you to learn. There are other assignments I can be doing. The only thing that you have to trust me by is the fact that I'm unsure whether to trust these people either. If that's not enough then I can go." She hadn't realized how serious she had gotten her mouth was now a hard line, she softened a bit, " A schedule is a basically a plan." She sighed, "Look, the only way people can help you is if you let them. I understand that you may not be ready for this, its not an easy task, I'll come back tomorrow if you want some time to think."
