( for A-M characters )
Before you post your toplevel comment, 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 comment 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's not really a sharing of his thoughts but the question has been asked all the same as he looks over at Keith. He's...curious. To say the least. Wanting to know what his answer will be in this instance. Perhaps then he will have his thoughts solidified enough to tell him exactly what he's thinking about all that he's seen here.]

This isn't exactly how my mind is all the time. It's just for while we're here. I'm not sure why it comes up like this. Last time we went through this, it was just the house and the land around it.
[If that's what Kolivan was asking about... but...]
For me, I see what everyone else sees. The objects and pictures... stuff that draws attention... It's guiding people to see certain things. I don't have to interact with them because I know what's there.
Though, it does sometimes change for different people. Sometimes, it can be the same object presented in a different way, or a different object altogether. I guess it depends on how I feel about the person who's looking.

That is not what was asked and you are aware of this, Keith.

Why does it matter? They're pictures. I don't actually have pictures like those. They're not real. They're just representations of memories here. Different milestones in my life, I guess.
Each one had a big impact on where my life is now. It's hard not to think about what they represent. Each one was important for a different reason. Same thing with the colored stars, or the fire.
This place, though? It's my past. I can't change any of it. What happened, happened. Do I wish that my dad hadn't tried to be the hero? Sure. Am I glad I met Shiro? Absolutely... more than anything. Am I glad we found the Blue Lion that day? Definitely.
I'm okay with how things have gone. It wasn't all great, and it wasn't easy, but I've learned to live with that.
[Again, he knew he was sort of dodging the question without giving a direct answer for the pictures. He sighed. Articulating his thoughts directly had never been a strong point for Keith. He looked at the door again, floating there in space.]
Racing Shiro in the desert was a good day. For that moment, we were both able to just forget everything else that was troubling us. I didn't know it, yet, but Shiro was sick. The two of us out there, just going fast, focusing completely on the moment, took him away from that. For me, it took me away from the fact that I was struggling after the loss of my dad. I didn't have to think about how the world seemed to hate me.
Losing my dad was... hard. I hated him for a long time after that, because I blamed him for it. He went into that building, knowing how dangerous it was, to save someone else's family. And, in the end, he left his own family behind. I resented that. But, I know that's just who he was. He put others' lives above his own all the time. And, as much as I hated to admit it, he was definitely a hero.
And when I think about finding the Blue Lion... that was the first step for me on a long journey that helped me find myself and my family. I don't know where I'd be now if we hadn't taken off that day, but I don't think it would be a good place. So, I'm grateful we found it. Yeah, it's been hard, and I've been through a lot, but I'm better now than I was.

Is that what you were asking?

He turns to head towards the door, pausing a moment.]
I am glad I was able to see what I saw.
[And he doesn't say more. He goes to open the door to leave. As far as he's concerned, he's seen enough.]
