Before you post your topcomment, please:
1. Check the first letter of your character's name as its written in our tags. A-M names comment here, and N-Z names go to the other post.
2. Make a note in your topcomment if anything especially triggering or graphic might show up in the Calibration. If you're not sure if something's worth noting or not, we suggest listing it anyway, just to err on the side of caution.
3. Put your character's name (it can be shortened or different from the tag, this time) in the subject of your comment. This will help visitors find you easily, and help us update the list below.
4. Post your comment! It's fine if everyone's Calibrations end up looking and reading very different from one another. As long as you're having fun and following our guidelines, you're good to go. :)
5. If you have any questions or concerns during Calibrations, you are welcome to send them towards the mod team at any time, as always.

[As Elecman walks further down the hall, he'll see that it's blocked by a shapeless blackness. Clay doesn't know what's on the other end, as he hasn't been down there before, nor does he care in this particular memory. Everything is focused on the room, and it even seems brighter than anything else in the hall.

Looks like Elecman will either have to wait outside for the scene to pass or go back and ask them how to get out.]

[electrostatics]

[ He pauses, and then turns around and walks right back where he came from, stopping beside the open doorway...

...

He's just going to knock. He's really awkward about this, but he's not going to stay in this memory forever. ]

[geonomy]

[From inside, Elecman will hear the sound of someone jumping up! Are they going to answer him?!]

Yes! Yes! We're dating!!

[Nah. There's laughter from Allen before he tries to shush him:]

Clay! You're going to make the whole ship hear!

[But.

Right beside Elecman, Clay tilts his head. He doesn't watch the scene, just regards the guy in his memory so rudely knocking and trying to interrupt it.]

Hey, what's up?

[And, meanwhile, the voice from inside is still very clearly still Clay's.]

Let them hear!

[electrostatics]

[ He doesn't even blink. Rudeness aside, his recovery time is commendably fast. (It might have something to do with the fact that he's used to the idea of someone accessing his memory data from the outside.) ]

I was trying to get out of the memory. This is probably supposed to be a private thing. So. [ A pause, and the words come out like he's really not used to saying them, ] Sorry. About that.

[ An even bigger pause, before he offers, awkwardly ]

Congratulations?

[geonomy]

[As Elecman speaks, the scene goes on. There's a shuffling sound, and then heavy footsteps as Clay picks Allen up easily and spins him around a time or two.]

We're dating! Who cares who hears now?

[There's a happily startled sound from Allen, and then laughter]

Ah-! Yes! We're dating!

[Clay on the outside, however, blinks at what he's saying, then leans to the side to see what he's talking about. Ah. Okay.]

Well, if you're seeing it, then it's not so private now, right? [It's a strange feeling. He feels like he should care more about people seeing this, but he just can't right now.]

[electrostatics]

[ He's just going to awkwardly tune that out. Not that it's gross or anything, but it feels pretty private for a stranger. ]

Memory data should be private. [ He just shrugs. ] But I guess the circumstances have changed, whether you want it to happen or not. Maybe it's the augments making all these different things accessible.

[geonomy]

Hm. Maybe. [Again, he can't find himself to care much about it.] Well, it'll be over soon. [With that, he disappears from the hallway as the conversation from inside goes through its last parts.]

I really, really like you.

[There's a pause, and while it may seem like the confession might have induced some hesitation, the sound at the end makes it pretty clear that they were busy kissing each other during it instead.]

I really, really like you too.

[And if Elecman does look inside, he'll see Clay and Allen with their foreheads touching together, their eyes closed and with broad, happy smiles on their faces. After that, however, his surroundings fade in a white light, and gravity slowly lessens around him again, making the transition from being on his feet in a room to floating in space as easy on him as possible.

Clay floats upside-down in front of him now, and when Elecman seems to have his bearings, he lifts his hands, the star appearing between them.]

We've been dating for about a month now. [He can't help the soft smile on his face.] He makes me so happy... I like him a lot. I might even...

[He trails off, and the item between them winks out of existence. And with that, Clay raises his head and floats up - though for Elecman, he'll be floating down instead, to get back to what he was doing.

Meanwhile, the other items rotate on...]
