When Shiniere finally got herself fully together, having been able to gather up the strength from the heartwarming welcome that her parents had given her on their surprise inspection, she kindly awaited in the World's Chambers ready for her discussion with Tear. Since she would be head of the institution, she knew that Tear had the most experience out of anyone on how to run a school, and all Shiniere really needed was a rundown of the facility's general infrastructure and she would be set. Reading was her skill, and she took pride in it. "Me-ou," she would say to herself with a voice of self-determination. "That's what I'll be. Me-ou; The Head Mistress of Pandemia." She already saw what her 'Title' was in glittering lights before her eyes. Shiniere was more excited than she thought she'd be.

"Sounds a little egocentric, don't you think?" Tear Lacrimoso, who had already arrived bright and early in the morning and was already preparing things for the scheduled affairs, would finally come to greet the 'Me-ou' as she, herself, got ready for class. "Then again, I suppose I know where you get it from. Hmhm." Tear couldn't help but chuckle as he watched over the young princess. "Ojou-sama," he said softly to her, bowing his head to her in a manner like that of a humble servant, "Are you finally ready?" Tear flashed his signature deadly nonchalant smile to her and gazed at her with glossy eyes filled with sentiment. "Everything is certainly prepared for you." He chuckled softly.

Shiniere scoffed lightly. "As if. Of course, we have to recognize who the real star of the show is, don't we?" She looked up to him and batted her eyes cutely, fluttering her lashes like a butterfly trying her best to appear as innocent as possible. "Besides, I just think it sounds sort of badass." Shiniere was still spunky and somewhat conceited, as usual, but it seemed to work for her here. "Me-ou~!" she cried out, raising her hand limply into the air in the haughtiest manner, as though she were swooning passersby.

"Well, anyway, enough of all that." Shiniere cleared her throat and straightened herself up, doing her best to remain as professional as possible... Especially from the eyes of someone who was considerably her elder in wisdom. "What is the first order of business, Mr. Lacrimoso?" In a professional environment, Shiniere wanted to keep things very neat and orderly; simple and clean. If as much of beyond the doors of Pandemia were left as closed as possible in this place, Shiniere felt as though they could all benefit the most maximum profit. Naturally, she would have to wait for Tear to walk her through the process so she could get herself accustomed as quickly as possible. Pandemia awaits.

Tear nodded his head. "Yes, better to not get personal affairs and notions involved with the public," Tear said, clearing his own throat immediately after. "Which reminds me, I should explain to you the purpose of this area. Susano'ou, the World Chambers." Tear extended his hands outward to make emphasis of the large room that they were in. "This is the place meant for visual communication with your peers around the world, as well as with the world, itself, through a 5D-Projection communication chamber." This was new technology being tested, but Tear felt like the Head Mistress would be able to handle it. "On each wall of the room is a projection screen. An image is projected on the screen and what's projected is broadcast back simultaneously simply from the screens being on. Similar to a mirror with a different image in it than your own. With four corners to a room, you're able to speak to at least 4 other people at once. This is important for Conference Calls." No one really knew what Tear was doing behind the scenes to keep this place in functioning order, but clearly he knew a lot about the inner workings for a plethora of good reasons.

"Also, you can broadcast live across the entire world or in certain areas by turning on the screens and allowing them only to view you. You can be projected through cameras, television screens, cell phones, satellite lasers and any other visual projection device and be able to see the entire area as though you're directly in the scenario yourself. The screens will all project your image and allow you to see what you look like in your projected place."Tear's face brightened up a bit. "You won't be able to view yourself, since it would be the equivalent of you being in that spot, yourself, but you will be seen to everyone in the area, as well as across the entire planet come time for 'World News'." Giving examples and references seemed to be best on how to get his point across to her, especially since knowing the functionality of each compartment of the school was important. They weren't going to go over all of them immediately, but as time progressed, the Me-ou would be guided and instructed through each of the parts of Pandemia so that she may not only utilize them for herself, but also assist with the educational process. True education started at the top, of course.

"You will have 'Classes' that you assign throughout the school and 'Jobs that you assign throughout the city using the 'Announcement' system. You may also use this to project your image anywhere you wish at any time in an isolated area without actually having to leave the World Chambers. Whenever you speak to the planet, you will use the 'Global Announcement' system. This will keep the entire world updated on all the Veritas 'Current Events,' both Major and Minor." Tear would grab some notes upon the desk in the center of the room, shuffling through the papers. "There are already tons of things that have been documented and needs to be broadcast. They will always be left here in this room." The Head Mistress had a very important job in Pandemia, and it was actually being the backbone and structure of Pandemia, herself. As much as Tear loved the school and being in the teaching environment, he was quite worn with being the Head Master. As he paused, he would become lost in the sentiment of how relieved he was that the young miss would come to his aid in his time of need. He looked at her, eyes shimmering slightly at the thought.

Shiniere followed along quizzically, both puzzled and calculating at the same time. She really seemed to critically piece together all of the necessity of the design and was already critiquing each method of approach she would take towards this endeavor, yet when Tear suddenly went silent, it caught Shiniere's attention rather quickly."Something wrong?" she'd inquire, curiously gazing up to the silver haired man with glittering eyes.

"Just happy that you're feeling better," Tear would say once he realized that he'd been lost in his sentiments, yet still somehow find himself falling right back into them again. "Ojou-chan..." There was much more sentimentality in his voice as he spoke these words. "You've really grown," he'd finally say, shaking his head afterward in order to away the thought. "But we said we'd leave these personal matters at home, so... I'll leave it at that for now, hm?" Tear chuckled, continuing on.

"It's best if we start out small. That is, with only doing some 'Announcements' within Pandemia's borders before we start releasing information to the City, and then move our way up to the World. That will be your tutorial and all the education you will needs for getting things in order in the Veritas." Tear already knew that Shiniere's capabilities were more than thorough enough for her to need the most minimum amount of education and still receive the most maximum of the information and could apply it as necessary. This meant that she needed education in smaller doses in order for application to be mastered before moving on to the next bit. "Therefore, the first thing that there is to do is to officially call for 'Class' to be in 'Session' around Pandemia. Each class is listed on the desk with times and a detailed synopsis of each." Tear had already gotten those things under way from the beginning, he just hadn't actually officially begun any classes yet. This would be the first one, and the Me-ou had first honors. "That's about all for the basics," Tear would say, clasping his hands together like the closing of a book, "And you may begin at any time you like. Until then, I will be off to deal with the scholarly duties of upkeep in this school. Is there anything you need before I go?"

Shiniere followed along closely, pushing aside any feelings she may have felt rising up. Even though the two of them were in private and she could definitely be more casual and less formal with Tear between the two of them, she also strongly believed that practice was of dire importance. Practice makes perfect, and her M.O. was perfection, after all, as it had always been. Yet, when he came upon the notion of his leaving, "Don't go!" came out of her mouth rather abruptly, breaking her calm and collected demeanor. Somehow, it seemed to have hit a nerve.

"Please," she'd mutter softly, looking down at the ground, "... I want you to watch over me and let me know if I'm doing a good job. So just don't..." She winced a bit, for some reason, somewhat displeased with herself for even having the thought. "... Don't leave me alone just yet." She would pause briefly, knowing that there was nothing that could keep the awkward silence from coming after her moment of weakness. It broke the air as quickly as if she were opening up one of her seals. All she could feel was disgust for herself, especially thinking about who she really was and what she'd been like before. Maybe there was more to that last slip-up than she thought.

Tear kept quiet as he looked to Shiniere with cold and hard eyes, unblinking and as sharp as a knife. He noticed that she was weak. Vulnerable, even. Tear was more than gifted at being able to see these things immediately, but that was due to the darker parts of his job. Here, this skill was still applied, but to a degree of understanding that in this moment of weakness it was not good to take advantage of. He knew that it was not good for this type of feeling to develop, but Tear also already knew why Shiniere would feel this way to begin with. She was still wounded and needed nurturing. "So be it," he said somewhat coldly, yet also with restraint. Tear would raise his hand up to her head and stroke it softly, bringing her comfort and certainty despite the coldness of and in the air. "You'll do just fine, dear. That's why I know you can do this on your own." His coldness melted away slowly, but surely the more he thought of how to reassure her.

"I'll even stay here and help walk you through, so I can prove it to you." Tear would lean on the desk casually, now that the air was broken, simply going with the flow of the atmosphere, as he always did. "If you need an example of anything, you can always practice in here with yourself. Just set the projection to isolation, where the images will only be cast of yourself. Like looking in a mirror numerous times." Being able to view a projection of oneself as a large crowd helped with stage fright and public relations for public affairs. "Just be careful not to get dizzy," Tear said in a joking, yet still serious manner.

Shiniere was still feeling displeased with herself. One, for being vulnerable, two, because she knew that Tear could see it, which is why she wouldn't look at him, and three, because she was never the type to be this way at all for any reason ever. And yet, something about the last slip-up really weighed heavily on her head. Maybe that's why she wanted Tear to remain with her right now. She couldn't trust herself to be alone and not constantly recount the thoughts.

"... That sounds perfect," she'd say with a little less enthusiasm, but still just as much steady thoughtful analysis as before, "I just have to practice in front of a crowd." Shiniere was used to doing things with a small group that she commanded before and wasn't really big on larger groups. She never really was a people person, so this would help open her up and hopefully take her mind off of everything... At least enough for her to get her own duties accomplished. There were things riding on her that required her composure, so perhaps taking a lesson or two from Tear before he dealt with the rest of the school would be to her benefit... and therefore, also Pandemia's. That is how Shiniere thought about it, that is. She already made a resolution in her heart not to fail again. Slip-ups were out of the question. If she did not allow them when she had her own renegade faction when rebelling from the Dusk, then she wouldn't have them when she was supporting the Veritas. This was an absolute.

"Very good, Head Mistress," Tear would say, agreeing with the wisdom of her choice of action. He was pleased that even after that break, she was still doing all she could to hold herself and her resolve together. Those sorts of things warmed his heart, especially since he knew hers would heal in due time. Hopefully, expeditiously with Tear around.

"By the way, the 'Classes' go on for as long as is instructed. Meaning, when one is in session, it lasts for as long as is stated until it is called to an official end. Don't worry about days or weeks or months. Those do not apply to our education standards." The criteria for Pandemia was simply maximized on education. Therefore, the classes would remain teaching everyone openly all day as necessary in both an open and regulated manner and environment conducive to maximum progressiveness and adaptability for the students and the curriculum, itself. "If you think we're spending too much time on a subject, or that perhaps the school as a whole has developed enough to move on, you may End a 'Class Session.'" Shiniere was going to have a lot of power. Hopefully, she could manage that, as well. "Be sure to End a session if the students and staff seem tired, as well. It's good to give breaks so that they can freely explore, rather than just doing relentless education and learning without outward application." The more Tear went on, the more he realized that there was a lot more that he needed to make sure Shiniere was prepared for than he originally thought. Though, that was why he was her right hand man, as he had been for every last leader of the school through its progression since the beginning. Now was no different, despite the new face being closer to home. "Practice makes perfect, as they say." Tear flashed his signature deadly nonchalant smile, turning on the Simulator for the 5D projection chamber. From there, a crowd of Shinieres would appear on every corner of the room and projected within the room, as well, bringing both full scale 3D images directly in the room with her and also some on the walls, extending infinitely outward as far as the eyes could see.
