( for A-M characters )
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.

It sounds like a girl's voice. Maybe the statue's? But it doesn't sound like a conversation - her lines are too close together, with no natural break. More like recordings played back to back with no pause.
"I, uh, know it was your birthday last month. This was my real father's camera, I want you to have it."
"Yep, yep! I'm fucking insane in the brain! Let's dance! Shake that bony white ass!"
"You saved me again. Crazy. Now we're totally bonded for life!"
"Don't look so sad. I'm never leaving you."
"I double-dare you. Kiss me now!"
Along with the words comes feelings. Intense feelings, almost overpowering. Happiness, excitement. And a deep bond - more than friendship.
And then...
"Why, Max? You're just bailing on me like everybody else."
"Why does everybody in my life let me down? My dad gets killed, you bail on me for years, my mother gloms onto step-fucker, now Rachel betrays me..."
A sense of failure, of betrayal.
The most intense feelings come after, though. "Where'd you get that? What are you doing!? Come on, put that thing down! ... Get that gun away from me, psycho!" There's an intense fear, panic. And then a single gunshot rings out, and the statue shatters.
The pieces of the statue scatter, too small now to even make out any of the girl's features from them. What was once a statue is now nothing more than a memory.
And on the base of the statue, there is a message is scrawled in blood, over and over.
"SAVE CHLOE" "SAVE CHLOE" "SAVE CHLOE" "SAVE CHLOE"
And around the room, every single photograph that features her, features that girl? They have her face burnt out.
However, where the statue was standing, there's now a single button. A large one, with the rewind symbol, like you might see on a VCR or a walkman.
What does Abigail do from here?
A. Press the button
B. Examine the photos
C. Go back and look at your other options again.

Because she's felt that feeling. The more-than-friendship thing. The need to be there for someone, at all costs. To help them come back to themselves. To be their everything.
She pushes the button. Of course she pushes the button.
