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.

Well no, I wasn't expecting panic but at least a little concern. But I guess as you said, you're used to this at this point.

So let me get this straight, you guys got out but the Atroma actually don't know how you did it but want to know. So they've caught you again and are using calibrations to get into your heads to find out.

But even if you tell us or the Atroma find out, it doesn't matter because that way was too risky and got too many people killed so we shouldn't use it anyway.

Why could you not tell us this while in the mines or over the network? Even if you don't tell us the method, the information that the Atroma don't know would have been nice.

Quite frankly I'm still not convinced you're not Atroma plants.

[At the last statement, Duo narrowed his eyes.]

So, it's okay for you to sit here and pry it out instead? How do I know you're not a plant? I don't know anything about you other than you're here... supposedly part of Drift Fleet. But, if you want to think people are plants from Atroma, they could already be in among your group. It doesn't have to me or her. It could be the captain of the ship your on.

I get not wanting to trust people. I'm the same way. So, I'm not expecting you to take any of what I'm saying without a grain of salt. In fact, I think you're doing the right thing.

As far as sharing, though? [Duo shrugged.] It wasn't my call on if I could or not. And as long as those augments are a thing, we can't trust anything in anyone's heads here in your Fleet.

If you want out, the door will wake you up.

[Tim sits and waits for Duo to get his insulted reply out. He can understand the anger towards the implication but it doesn't change the possibility of all of this being part of a setup. Once Duo is done, he doesn't even really acknowledge the rant. It would counterproductive since Duo is obviously on the same page by the end of it]

I'm presuming that despite the fact that you got away with the Interceptors that you remain fitted with the Augments we're all given? I've heard a couple of people have attempted to remove them unsuccessfully. Have you heard any different?

[Duo sighed heavily.]

The technology is really advanced, and it's embedded in something that's kind of an important thing to have, your brain. You tell me if it's going to be safe and easy to remove.

[He shook his head.]

We did try. With really mixed results. [He rubbed the back of his head, low, behind his left ear, right where the augment would be... but it was hard to tell if he still had his or not.] Some weren't even brave enough to try removing it or let it be attempted on them. Just trying to find a way to break the connection had triggered some really bad glitches and reactions in some people.

I'm not saying it should be attempted without great care and research. I was more curious to see if it had been done successfully once you were out of their sphere of influence. Although I suppose if you're still wearing it I'm not sure you ever left it.

I wonder if the installation for it is done on the Marsiva? and if therefore that would be the only way to get it off.

Have you encountered any talk or knowledge of the Atroma during your travels?

That's another reason we're being less than forthcoming with some of the information.

We woke up with it, just like you guys did, and sometimes, if you show up far enough ahead of the ship assignments, you're in this hospitality deck on the Marsiva. It would make sense that's where things are done. It's just that some people arrive so close to getting the assignment for their ship, it's easier to just send them straight there after they get their augments.

Not much more than you guys. We did catch wind of that computer data a while back, and used the cover of the party to raid the guy's secret storage. The Floot Loops thing, too... but they seem to not know much about what happened either. A lot of the systems along the route didn't seem to recognize us, either. It's weird. It's like the show isn't as big a deal as they're makin' it seem.
