Shikajin would continue to watch as Raika tried her hand at the technique once more, though what he honestly wanted to see more than a successful attempt was the genin showcasing a greater control of her chakra. He was confident that she wasn't going to be able to pull off such a high level jutsu in one day's time but all the practice would serve as a solid foundation for her other, less rigorous training in the future. Still, there was only so much struggle and consternation one could watch and between the amount of chakra Raika was pouring out through her hands and use of her Byakugan the girl was going to knock herself out sooner than later.

The chunin would step forward and place his hands over the Hyuga's, the familiar blue/green hue from before covering his hands. "Commit to memory the feeling and flow of chakra you see." He spoke while continuing to aid the girl in bringing back her 'patient'. Shikajin would take the process slow to allow Raika the opportunity to get a truer sense of what they were doing and after some time the fish would flop back to 'life' via the two's combined efforts. "... Just like that. You did well to keep at it and manage your chakra wisely; lesser genin would have passed out after the first attempt. It might be a while until you get this technique down, but everything else will be much less difficult after what you've gone through today."

He wasn't the best at words of encouragement or anything of the sort but hopefully Raika understood that Shikajin was paying her a compliment, while also noting that future trainings wouldn't be as difficult; not easy by any stretch, but definitely less daunting.

Raika sighs with relief when Shikajin seems to take pity on her and places his hands over hers, so she can watch as he converts the chakra she's outputting to heal the fish much more efficiently than she'd been trying, and she can actually see that the fish's own cells are being healed and then made to replicate themselves, using the piscine's own natural method of healing in order to make the fish "heal itself", to a certain extent. This much closer and more careful observation leads to a bit of a breakthrough for Raika to help her better understand what it is that healing jutsu should really be trying to do, at least in its more advanced stages. She also obediently takes careful note of the feeling and flow of the chakra as it brings the fish back from the brink of death, causing it to flop about on its paper for a bit. The helpful encouragement definitely makes Raika feel a lot less like a failure, especially when she hears that most medical students would have passed out after the first try, but she'd been able to control her chakra well enough to seemingly impress her teacher.

"Thanks. I'm gonna have to study more on this to make sure I've got it down, but you've really helped a lot..."

Her Byakugan deactivates, and then she seems to realize the time when she sees the clock face has counted down by quite a bit of time, and she remembers that she actually desperately needs to get going. The one seafood place that actually serves the type of fish she'd become accustomed to eating in Kawa was going to close in only an hour, so she would actually need to hurry over in order to get there before the business closes for the night.

"Ack! I've got to run. Thanks again for the lesson!"

Raika hops out of the chair, stumbles momentarily, then gets her footing right and gets to rushing out of the library, making her way out to the street and then sprinting out to the restaurant. Clearly, if anything is a major motivator for the Genin, it was food.
