Jera was currently wondering the same thing as Malas. She was locked in her own mind now though held captive as the memory played, Surisana had control and she clutched her lucky decoder pendant tightly while she grinned and watched the strange production. Her tail flicked occasionally and the ground was pawed at as she remembered.
It was interesting to watch herself, watch text scroll down on screens , watch herself speak and long hidden truth and knowing full well the upset it would cause. She could almost feel the cold of the keypad, almost sense her tensed muscles and the adrenaline that had been pumping through her at the time.
She jumped then the door bust open and frowned when the camera was turned to slag and the images and sound stopped. " Bring it back, do it again, she demanded."

Malas groaned as the image finally died and her sight returned to normal. Groggily she sat up, a hand rising up to rub the dull throbbing on the side of her head. "I, I'm sorry, I don't know what happened." She murmured, eyes squeezed shut from the pain.
"I, I don't think I can." she apologized before squeaking aloud as the pain magnified before she fell forward. Her hair hung over her face for mere seconds before she looked up to face Jera.
A crooked smile marred the young girl's lips, her eyes devoid of expression, masking her thoughts and intentions. Her gaze and her smile was not Malas'. "She can't but I can." Knot responded.

Jera had been concerned for Malas when she had groaned and been unable to stay steady. She wasn't thrilled at the other girl or the feeling that that surfaced becuase of her. She was still herself yes but her sense of self had shifted had reverted to Surisana's way of thinking.
A grin of her own responded to the other's." Who might you be?"

"Former Private Mambabangungot, of the K'luwan ground infantry, fifth division." Came the formal response, "But recently, I've been called Malas." She shrugged. It was odd that while Knot had plenty of opportunities to remind Malas of who she really was, it was only when she saw Jera did she surface.
Perhaps Jera's centaur-form triggered Knot's distaste for two-legged creatures. Perhaps she had been merely biding her time. Most likely it was the former as Knot had resigned herself to permanent exile in Gaia and was no longer interested in living. But here was someone who reminded her of home. How could she not make contact?
Her Malas self would remember this conversation, she would remember everything that would occur between the older girl and Knot. Whether Malas would understand it is a different matter.

Surisana frowned " Not sure what that all meant," Surisana hated not knowing things. In her previous line of work, knowledge had been key to survival. She drummed her fingers on her leg in slight agitation and resisted to urge to sigh. It was interesting though that this version of Malas was more shrewed and dangerous feeling. Surisana would have to keep herself aware while working with her.
" So you can do that again can you? I would be interested in reviewing bits of the past if you'd be willing to help."

Knot looked aloof, whether Jera understood all the militant jargon was of no concern to her. Still, she liked being in the centaur's presence, if only to appreciate the older girl's form. "Of course I can do it again." she smiled slyly, "But why would I? Do I have to? And if I did, what would I get in return?"
While normally subservient, Knot only submitted to her superiors and fellow K'luwans. She held a certain level of disgust and contempt for non-K'luwans, particularly those who were bi-pedal. But she liked how Jera looked, she liked the commanding authority the older girl possessed. If only Jera gave her a direct order, something to establish who was boss would Knot be willing to declare her loyalty.
She didn't mind Seveile, despite how 'Las adores the multi-colored-haired girl, Knot just wasn't impressed with her. She was too innocent, too sweet and welcoming. And Knot couldn't bring herself to respect someone like that.

Negotiation was not Surisana's strong point. She'd done it in her past but the stakes were different and she'd only been authorized to give and take certain things so she could barter all she liked until she got what she wanted. Here she'd have to be careful, weigh her words and choose wisely.
" I have a feeling threatening you with violence will do little good. though your body is rather frail looking." Jera was well aware her body could do serious damage these days. with strong muscled legs and hard sharp hooves she wasn't one to mess with. On the other hand she had no desire to underestimate what this stranger could do.
" Instead I suggest you tell me what you think you deserve for your services and I'll see if I find your terms acceptable." Surisana was cautious., establishing herself as in control of the situation. After all it wa s her choice to accept the terms or not. still she was giving the other a choice. as well as sessing out how they thought. How much they valued their gift.

Knot canted her head, a finger absently twirling around a lock of her bright emerald hair. "There's no need for violence when dealing with me." She frowned, "You just have to know how to deal with me."
Silver-blue eyes blankly stared at Jera, "Well that's no fun, how can I know if I'm under pricing myself or over pricing for that matter?" She was beginning to doubt whether Jera had what it took to take charge and be command. Maybe she had been mistaken.
It wouldn't be the first time my sense of judgement failed me.

Surisana just shook her head " Anyone with such an ability should have a better sense of self worth." Well either she was being played or this silvery eyed girl was utterly hopeless at being independent. Would surprise her considering how helpless her other self had been..
Standing Surisana stretched and flicked her tail in agitation. " Fine then, You will perform this trick of yours again , you'll do it as a gesture of good will and in the future you will find I may be inclined to do the same." Jera narrowed her eyes " This is most likely of course if you can select the thing you project and not just pick them at random. I have no desire to wait ages for you to get the right memory." It was odd using a person like an object but it was not totally unfamilair. She had played people when she was a spy in the past.

Knot snorted, "You expect me to perform for gratis?" She shook her head, "I'm sorry, but quite frankly I'm not in the mood to do that unless it's a formal command." She stared back at the older girl. Malas might have conceded, but Knot only takes orders from those who have established themselves as her superior.
Frankly, Jera had not declared her authority over the younger girl and Knot's days as a soldier made her uncooperative to a civilian's request.

Surisana ground her teeth and stamped a foot on the ground in annoyance. of all the insufferable people to deal with . " Than take it as a formal command. While we are in this place I outrank you. I was the third person brought into the unit meaning if i tell you to jump you do it and hope it's high enough to meet my expectations. Are we clear?"
" I am ordering you, as your superior to repeat your earlier performance. I may not need to use violence with you but I'm getting top the point where I want to." It was moments like there where Surisana hated having a warmblooded body. it made it hard to remain appearing calm and poised. Instead she was gesturing madly and flushing.

Much better. Knot thought with an inward smug grin. She closed her eyes and allow the magick to flow outwards, unseen, intangible. The tendrils slid once again into Jera's body and it probed her mind.
In this brief instance Jera or Surisana might catch a few glimpses of Malas' experiences in Gaia for Knot had safely tucked her memories out of reach.
Drawing the memory out of the older girl, the connection between their thoughts broke. Only to be quickly followed by the same memory. This time it was longer, the journey from the announcement to her jail cell to her trial.

( Trying to wrap this up as I'm losing my Jera muse atm)
Surisana tried to glean as much from this review of her past as she cold. who had captured her, what her jail was like and more importantly all of who was at her trial and what their reactions were. Perhaps if she was lucky she'd see something she could use.
However, she was unable to truly focus due to the brief glimpses of a life that was decidedly not hers. One that belong to the pink haired girl. the scenes were too short to learn much but she had figured out a few things she would tuck away for later. She wondered why she had seen this before her own memories.
Once the show was finished for a second time she looked at Las and smiled. "That was entertaining and I appreciate your cooperation."

((okies, consider this PD a wrap :3 ))
Knot smiled and allowed 'Las the reigns to the body, "Um, you're welcome?" She responds, finding everything that had happened rather queer. She wasn't aware that Jera had seen glimpses of her memories, but she felt awkward all the same. "It's been, um, interesting meeting you but if it's all the same I'd better go home now."
