( 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.

That is certainly true. But I spent much of my life ignored. Being told my hurts did not matter, that they were not real. I cannot let them go. If I forget, then what they told me — the narrative they gave me was true.
And it turns my pain into a lie.
no subject
Do you really think you'd forget?
no subject
I think the mind is not as reliable as we wish it to be.
no subject
Maybe not.
Though, maybe there's a reason we don't remember certain things.
[After all, pain could be something one didn't want to remember.]
Still... I don't think anything we ever feel is a lie. It's true in the moment, and that's what counts. Anyone who says feelings don't matter... they're the ones lying.
[Keith's tone was slightly bitter, like he'd been told that before.]
Pain and grief don't ever really go away. Letting go isn't forgetting. It's learning to live with it in a way that doesn't hurt as much. I know I'll never forget the things that have hurt me in the past, but I try not to let the memories hurt me now... not anymore. It doesn't always work, but I'm trying.

[ it wasn't so intense, but recent events have disorganized his mind. ]
no subject
That's the important thing to remember, then. These things... they're in the past. And we have to learn and move on.
[Keith knew, though, that it wasn't always that easy. It hadn't been for him on quite a few things.
He looked back towards the Tesseract again, remembering what he had seen.]
You have that chance here, at least... in the Fleet.
no subject
For now.

[Keith started back for the door again. He was curious. Usually, these things happened in threes, right? He reached out to see if it would open.]
