Welcome to Gaia! ::

It was a very intimidating idea. Anna, teaching in front of a class of students. Then again, if her teaching was part-time, then perhaps her class would be exclusive to only those who were truly dedicated. She would have to present the idea to Kaien when he wasn't so flustered.
Her response was a mere nod and another sip of the tea. She knew little of the Gateway, so couldn't really comment.

"Very well." Kaien said, standing and smiling. "I think our first Staff meeting has gone well, even though Arondis really isn't a member of my staff." He strode over to where the pile of books that Anna had recently knocked over lay.

He clicked his tongue and shook his head, "What a shame, we almost had this place cleaned up!." He winked at Anna to let her know he was simply joking, and bent to gather a few in his arms. He carefully stacked them on the edge of her desk for better access, and turned to the two women.

"I think I'll take my leave now, for right now, the best course of action is to simply monitor the fluctuations in the gateway and not to directly confront the problem. However, if you could research some possible solutions from your personal libraries, I'd be very grateful."

Arondis nodded in understanding. "Will do." Smiling, she walked towards the office door and then turned to bow her head to both people in the room. "A pleasure to see you again Annabelle. You as well Kaien, you'll hear from me soon." Already she knew that she would contact her son to be a teacher here. The headmaster would have his teachers in no time. This thought was accompanied by a warm smile as the guardian made her way down the hall, always moving in silence.

A young looking white-bluish haired man walked casually down the hallway, seemingly in no hurry to be anywhere. He was suppose to be looking for the headmaster and instead, the door he happened to knock on was that of Anna's office. Pyralis casually rocked back on his heels and then stood straight again as he waited for the door to open.

His warm laughed acompanied hers. This beautiful woman was not what he had been expecting. "No, and I don't suppose you're the headmaster as he's suppose to be a man." Chuckling slight, he introduced himself properly. "Pyralis Aquila Flameweaver at your service madam." Taking her hand, he kissed the top of it in the old fashioned way. "May I inquire as to what name goes with such an angelic face?" Pyralis smiled warm and friendly.

Pyralis chucked again. What a darling blush. "Please allow me Miss Souris." Kneeling, he picked up the book and then stood again. "Ah, Gaston Leroux. What an interesting man he was. Brilliant writer, but terrible taste in woman I must say. Only with the ficticous woman did he have any talent." Still smiling warmly, he handed to book back to Anna. "Hold tightly to that one. It's a classic."

"I would indeed, thankyou." Following Anna into the office, Pyralis closed the door behind him and, carefully navigating through the piles of books, took a seat on the couch. "And to answer your previous question, yes, I did as a matter fact. It was only briefly though, and just for a few drinks now and then. He liked to run his ideas by me when we both got the chance." Taking in the state of the office, covered in books, he had to smile. "What a collection you have here."
