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 go to the other post, and N-Z names comment here.
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.

[ twirls the flowers she's holding in her hands ]

We just don't know each other that well.

[ino]

[ She likes to think she actually knows Katniss pretty well, but ... it's true, she supposes, that Katniss doesn't know her all that well. ]

Does it bother you to see memories like that?

[takeabow]

I just wouldn't like it.

[ino]

Hmm ... I just think it's easier to get to know someone that way, personally.

Not that I would do that to you, of course. I'm just used to this type of thing.

[takeabow]

It's not the first time I've been in a situation like this. It just never sits well.

If you don't care, though— I mean, it's not that I don't want to know you better.

[ino]

I find the more guarded you are about the things in here -- [ She taps her head ] -- the easier they can be used against you as a weapon.

So -- if people want to look, they can. I won't give them the satisfaction of me being anxious or afraid for people to see who I am.

[takeabow]

[ it's like you're trying to speak to me ]

Maybe.

[ino]

That's just the way it's been, over the years I've been in places like this.

[ She shrugs ]

Like I said, it doesn't bother me. I trust you.

[takeabow]

Why? Because you knew me?

[ino]

Because I know you.

Maybe not as well as some others, but -- yeah.

[ there's something about it that makes nova feel defiant, so she plucks a rhododendron ]

[ino]

[ That was a bit unwise, Katniss. Because Ino's life has been a whole lot of one dangerous situation after another, and so the rhododendron can only be bad news.

In this case, the memory takes her away to an open path, clearly manmade with concrete and steel. There's a massively tall electrified fence off to the side, but it isn't humming like it ought to be if it were properly on. In fact, it appears to be off.

Which, according to this memory, is very not good. Combined with the loud footsteps that make the ground shake coming from the distance, it's very clear that whatever's approaching? It's not good.

She won't have to wait long to see what's causing the sound, as the creature finally approaches, towering over the group of people in the path. Everyone seems to be standing as still as possible, keeping their breaths as short and quiet as possible, as the creature makes its way over, clearly looking very hungry.

And then, thankfully, the tension is gone, and the memory recedes once more to the much less dangerous and terrifying flower shop. ]

[takeabow]

What was that?
