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.

[He should bring it to his world, to be honest. So many starving people would be fed. ]
No one wants to visit memories on an empty stomach.
no subject
[He nods in agreement.]
So... do you wanna see some more? You're the one in charge here, so we can either keep on this path, or we can go see some of my favorites.
[Read: he'll actually steer Sokka to his favorite road, but he's not supposed to be biased here, so he taps his finger on the steering wheel as he tries to keep a (somewhat) neutral expression on his face.]
no subject
Okay, let's head to one of your favourites. I'm all for that, dude.
no subject
[Off to his favorites it is! Shawn takes them away from Topanga Canyon, and back towards Cornelius Corner. The road fades again into a memory; this time, they're standing inside a packed restaurant - and Shawn looks way younger than he has in any memory so far. (He can't be more than eleven here.)
"Don't worry about me, Shawn, I was just leaving," another young boy says, turning towards the stairs.
"Why? I got an order of chili cheese fries, extra gravy," little Shawn says, gesturing towards the table.
"Naw, you're too busy with those other guys," the kid says, and Shawn stares at him as if the kid's grown a third head.
"What other guys?"
"The ones sitting at your table."
"So? They'll make room."
"Shawn, they're gonna see you talking to me," the kid says, gesturing to himself.
Shawn's face grows suspicious as he says, "You know, you've gotten real weird since you've been invited to this party. You don't want to hang out with me anymore?"
The kid says, so loudly that the entire restaurant hears, "I'M A GEEK!" With a hand, he dismisses everyone's stares, "Oh, like you didn't know."
Shawn pulls the kid away to a booth, "Cory, what're you talking about?"
"I'm the worst kind of geek. I'm a geek who didn't know he was a geek."
A look of understanding washes over Shawn's face. "Cory?"
"Yeah?"
"Do I hang out with geeks?"
"No, that's why I'm leaving--"
Shawn grabs Cory by the arm. "Come on... you're my best friend, man. You've just gotta loosen up."
Cory's a bit stunned that Shawn doesn't think Cory's this proverbial geek, even having to ask to be reassured of it, until Cory asks "Am I cool?"
Shawn laughs. "Of course not."
"Then what AM I?"
"You're Cory. I'm Shawn, just like it's always been. What else do you need to know?"
Cory puzzles over it for a second. "I need to know how to be cool. Like you."
Shawn stares at him in utter bafflement. "I'm not cool."
"Yes, you are!"
Shawn pauses, having to ask for clarification - Cory insists that this place, and the people they're with, is a cool party, and that Shawn is the center of it. Which doesn't sound right to little Shawn at all, because he only wants to be wherever Cory is (no more, no less).
So after some deliberation, Shawn says, "Let's bail."
Cory again rambles about how this proves Shawn's coolness, because he can go wherever he wants and the party will flock to him, but Shawn just stars at Cory as if he's speaking another language. Sometimes, he swears, he's not gonna get this kid.
So he says, with a laugh as he gestures towards the stairs, "Cory? Shut up."
He knows where he wants to be, and if it means ditching a party to hang out with his best friend - then well, he's gonna do just that.]
no subject
Looks like he's a pretty important best friend. It's always good to have onea those.
no subject
[Which, thankfully, is an exaggeration - but it might as well be truth for Shawn. They're cruising on the highway again; there's a points of interest sign on the right-hand side, along with another sign to return them to the highway.
Although Sokka's thermos of chicken noodle soup will never run out (as long as he's in the car), he can still check out the glove comparment's CDs or the graduation tassel. Shawn, however, reaches up for the Chubbies' keychain, and puts it back in his pocket.]
Man, I used to love that restaurant too. Cory and I must've kept it running ourselves, from all the times we'd hang out there after school.
no subject
[It's really not an exaggeration for Sokka. Not at all. He'll start rifling through the CDs, Earth music is still very much new to him. He's always happy to expand his knowledge on the subject. ]
Yeah? They serve good food?
no subject
Hey, after you figure out a song you like, I could drop you off there. We should make a pit stop at some point, anyways.
[He's in luck! Shawn's car is filled with sweet 90's goodness in every CD. While most are your mainstream alternative rock, there's a few that shake a little when held, as if begging to be opened. Shawn, of course, doesn't notice.
His choices are:
A) A video game soundtrack about a cute blue hedgehog
B) A Counting Crows album
C) A smudged album, titled "For Shawn,"
D) Collective Soul album (cw: hospitalization, severe injuries)
E) A Green Day album
F) Nada Surf Album (queued up to "Popular")
G) ... no choice. the looped song's catchy enough as it is.]
A
[Hmm hmm, he takes a minute to decide, before picking the hedgehog one. He only know Mario right now. ]
Why is it blue?
