Reiashi had managed to find a break between paperwork and meetings with the troubled students that he actually had time to handle one on one tutorship with the various students within the academy. Reiashi often found himself volunteering to help various students in the academy, even after teaching the various classes he had to oversee, with today's being lesson being an example of the former. A member of the Hyuuga clan had privately sent a message to the head academy instructor, concerning the progress of one Hyuuga Tamiko. The contents of said letter had added weight to the white haired Gure's heart, always feeling the clans of Konoha were horrid at knowing how to interact with children. Had the young girl even heard a section of the various demands the letter made, Reiashi had no doubt she would have felt immensely pressured to meet the expectations of far too judgemental elders.
[break][break]
In light of that knowledge, Reiashi had refused to answer the letter with anything more than a few lines suggesting that he would take their considerations into account, before scheduling a session with Tamiko. One of the benefits of working as the head instructor was that Reiashi had access to the files of not just students, but even staff with ease. As such it did not take long to utilize both the young Hyuuga's history and personality profile to get an idea of how best to approach this lesson without causing undo stress. As was expected the thirteen year old girl had inherited her clan's penchant for perfectionism, a trait that never paired well with a child's habit of mimicking the adults that filled their lives. Eventually Tamiko would make the same mistake an important figure in her life would, yet would both be dealt and accept the blame for that trait as if it was her own, whilst her idol would remain innocent of the 'crime'.
[break][break]
For much of her life Tamiko has taken the roll of shadow, never so much as a side character, let alone a staring role. Given her polite and controlled personality, the lack of rebellion hints that the kunoichi in training is often overwhelmed by the sudden shift when put in such situations. This stunted sense of individuality will mean that any attempts to read further on her later will cause the lesson to be halted, not to mention an increase of anxiety that would defeat the entire purpose of this. Subjects of anything but practical application of this training is to she avoided, her main branch nature will likely cause conflicts with anything that might contradict with their accustomed posh lifestyle. The best avenue to approach this from is as a way to refine basic elements of being a ninja, given that it makes no assumptions to the young girl's progress, simply allows the girl to volunteer her of own initiative to improve.
[break][break]
The idea had worked, perhaps a bit too well as Reiashi had spent the last two hours in one on one training with various students. As the last left, Reiash would allow himself to release a small sigh as he moved towards a nearby window. Swing latch, I should listen to that record when I get home. Lift up- air flow- hope the AC unit is fixed. Hands behind his back, the silver eyed Uzumaki would breath deeply as he took this brief instant to enjoy the warm light of the sun before returning to his desk. Preparing a few reports from various teachers on Tamiko's strengths, Reiashi would proceed make sure his planned exercise would work as planned.

It had been a fairly mundane day like any other for young Tamiko. The smallest Hyūga had been busy leaving class to go and focus more on her studies when a new flyer had seemed to pop up on the academy bulletin board. Curious about the information, and for a lack of anything else better to do rather than shove her face in some books, Tamiko decided to investigate what it could have said. "What's this?" she said to herself, taking the sheet of paper from the attached stack and giving it a brief glance over.

Much to her surprise, it was for a new training regime of some kind, sponsored by the academy. It made promises about being a wonderful opportunity to learn some new skills and get a jump start on the new round of physical examinations that the students had often been subjected to. The offer was enticing, and at being a free class for the students, there wasn't technically any downside to attending these things. "I guess it wouldn't hurt to go. It's not like doing the same three training taijutsu techniques would be any better than going to one of these." Tamiko thought to herself, pursing her lips in thought. She stood there for a moment in confliction before her mind was made up.

"Might as well, I guess. Let's see where we're going."

She tore the paper from the wall and then went to the meeting place where the training was going to take place, her pace hastened as a bit of her excitement was breaking through that facade of stoicism she always wore.

Reiashi had just finished sorting out the papers linked specifically to Tamiko's own progress reports into a neat pile when Tamiko arrived. As he heard the sound of lone footsteps approaching the room, the young shinobi would turn from the window he was gazing wistfully through, a gentle smile finding its way back to his face as he began observing his surroundings with a bit more focus. Well, as much focus as a mind such as his could manage.
[break][break]
Her steps are consistent in pace, but the force behind them seems to vary. She has a set pattern, controlled and reflective of the usual Hyuuga stoicism. Yet occasionally she moves less with a controlled step, and favors an energetic boost. She's excited, and trying to control it. Usually, Reiashi would advise such people- especially children- to enjoy the emotion while it lasted, not living restricted lives to be 'mature'. It was never lost on Reiashi how hypocritical such advice was, but it was important to learn balance as early as one could. Unfortunately, this exercise will require more control than any academy student should be able to preform with no prior experience. As such, although the Hyuuga rely on their stoicism to an unhealthy degree, it will likely be needed for her to control her emotions.

[break][break]
As the door opened, Reiashi would already be looking towards Tamiko, the sudden draft from the new opening causing a softer breeze to flow through the room, the chuunin's red hand stopping the papers from flying across as she entered. "Good morning miss Tamiko. How has your day been?"

Tamiko had approached the room where Reiashi would be waiting, her gait controlled and precise though with that one occasional step that showcase her eagerness to be learning something that she normally would not have been able to. With the paper in hand, the youth's excitement was able to be shown by the absence of others around her.

"I wonder what We're going to be doing. Maybe it's some new technique they won't teach in class. Or maybe he's making some new academy student program?"

All of them were a bit farfetched, but such was the curse of youth. A mind unfettered by the harsh realities of shinobi life, free to wander around and aspire to heights that were nigh insurmountable. Tamiko only ceased such childishness when she stood in front of the door leading to the organized event area. She closed her eyes and took a deep breathe to collect herself. Her excitement and emotion diluted themselves until she took on the proper appearance of a young Hyūga, destined for greatness once more. Out came any worries or aspirations until all that remained was a stoic academy student.

The door slid open as Tamiko walked inside, cool as a cucumber. Her eyes looked up towards Reiashi as the girl's mouth tightened into a smile while on her way towards the man. "It's been going along smoothly." she replied to his inquiry about her day. A fairly mundane one that blended in with the rest. "I trust yours is much the same?" A little back and forth while they hashed out introductions. Even within her muted stride, her excitement was still able to be seen, even with Tamiko wasn't entirely conscious about it popping up.

"So the paper I found mentioned a special kind of one-on-one training with you. What would that entail, exactly? Is it a new technique or something similar?"

Reiashi waited patiently for the young child's answer, his mind analyzing what he could in the brief gaps between her words. Her face is cool and calm, yet the subtle tension of expectation fighting against nature is visible. Such conflict will make the exercise difficult. Thus comes the question: which side will be the grindstone- and which shall be the blade. As Tamiko responded to his question in kind, Reiashi would straighten as he placed a small weight upon the stacks. "Quite fine thus far." Her tone is even, yet the pace at which she talks is faster than expected. She's taking in more of the area whilst holding herself in place, a controlled use of energy. Reiashi's smile would remain, yet his eyes would soften slightly at this information.
[break][break]
She's very excited, but what does she think is coming? Her questioning revealed the source of her excitement, the idea of learning something no one else has. Preserving such excitement and determination could be difficult, but lying will hurt trust. Thankfully, there was a solution; make the new information a puzzle. "An interesting theory." The chuunin would speak with amusement as he looked towards the academy from behind his desk, seeking to let her keep her space and not feel any pressure on the following statement. "I'm curious as to your logic in this scenario you suggested." With the same calm and gentle presence he had started this conversation with, Reiashi would lay out the puzzle. "What is the purpose of the academy? How does it achieve it's goal of training future shinobi?"

The question asked of her had taken Tamiko by surprise. She really didn't know exactly what this kind of training would entail, and it left her to only guess at what she could have hoped it would bring. The girl shuffled in place for the moment while thinking of the answer she wanted to give to Reiashi. Once it was fully formed in her mind, the academy student would speak.

"W-Well, I was just assuming..." The young shinobi fumbled her words as she tried to construct a sentence in a coherent answer to his question. "The academy instructors don't think I'm ready to graduate despite how long I've been here. They want me to learn more jutsu than just my clan's taijutsu, but I have difficulty in focusing on anything but that."

Reiashi's next question was even more puzzling. What was the purpose of an academy? It was pretty self explanatory, wasn't it? But this was some kind of riddle, it had to be. Adults didn't go around asking why the grass and trees grew over their home, they just knew. So maybe he was testing her. An answer to his question wasn't easily thought of though, as there could be a million different answers. She didn't know!

"I...guess that it trains future shinobi in the art of conflict and war. You train students about what to expect when serving the village and help them to advance in the rankings to Jounin. I'm not quite sure I follow though..."

In shock, gut reactions often took hold, even for the briefest of moments. Reiashi's mind often seized on these moments, taking in any detail he could as the young student tried to process his question. She's shuffling in place, unsure of how to respond. Almost as if she's trying to manually sort through the thoughts in her head. Perhaps I could have phrased the leading statement better. As her answer was given, more subtle actions gave way to more feelings. Her eyes are looking towards my hair and shoulders, looking near my face while avoiding eye contact. Between the stumbling of her words and rocking, it's entirely possible she feels she's being judged. I should do something to relax her.

"Don't worry, you're not in trouble. Just consider it a bit of my random curiosity."

As the small child answered Reiashi's first question, the older shinobi would crouch down to hopefully seem less imposing. There were a few technically incorrect statements, such as the fact that reaching jounin rank was in no way a garunteed outcome, but pointing those out not only served not purpose- but could actively hurt her excitement, or cause self doubt. "That's correct. Our job is to make sure you're ready until you are placed in a genin squad, where a shinobi will train you further to work as a team and as individuals. They'll also be handling more advanced topics and techniques. The Academy, given it's nature as an introductory course, focuses on improving basics. With that in mind, what sort of one on one training would you likely be undergoing in the academy?"

Tamiko's gestures and shuffling were as clear as day, she could only really wonder why she had been asked that question. Was it one of those ones that the adults asked to quiz you on if you truly were meant for the shinobi lifestyle? Or was it a genuine question that didn't have a correct answer? Tamiko had been taught to be more rigid than most. Anything had a solid, definitive answer, and that could be anything at all, physical or metaphorical.

The answer that the Hokage had give Tamiko was a sigh of fresh relief at his answer, yet she still felt his judgement being cast down upon her. Maybe it was the height difference between them, the two extremes of shinobi life staring down one another. The weathered and strong kage level man asking philosophical questions to the green and soften ears of the academy student. She fumbled a bit in her words while flinching at her inability to sound as controlled as he did. Her brows gave away her indifference and internal thoughts.

"I, um, w-was troubled for a moment." She said, trying to return to her previous composure. Her voice wavered to the end, but managed to return slightly to her previous voice. "As a member of the Hyuga clan, one of Konoha's most prestigious and well treasured clans, I thought it pertinent that I seek guidance from somebody such as yourself, Reiashi-san." It was a stuffy voice. An imitation of the ones that the most arrogant of her clan gave that she shadowed and aimed to replicate in full. Not out of a desire to be as horrible as they were to others, but for people to at least take her as serious as any other member of the clan. She hesitated for a moment before opening her mouth again at his question.

"I don't know..." Tamiko said as her head angled down out of shame. The child didn't truly have figured out what she should be focusing in specifically that she wished to do. It made some amount of sense that somebody in her clan would focus primarily on taijutsu for obvious reasons. Possessing the Byakugan made one a natural for such activities but was that all she could limit herself too?

"Every one of my classmates knows what they want to do and what they'll study. I don't even know where to begin..." Tamiko continued while she bit her bottom lip out of a need for comfort. The pretense of sophistication was dropped for the tone a child gave when being yelled at. "It took me ages to be able to use the Byakugan, a-and I...just don't know." She fidgeted in her seat again while her eyesight remained locked on Reiashi's desk instead of on his gaze. Could something finally pull her attention all the way back to his eyes?

"I don't want to be sent to war and have no idea of what I'll fight using."
