[ Calibration Rooms ]
( for N-Z characters )

Before you post your toplevel comment, please:
1. Check the first letter of your character's name as its written in our tags. N-Z names comment here, and A-M 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.

I know this isn't real and that we've never met in person. I think that's what's making this easier to tell. I know you'd never be allowed down here [He indicates around him]

[therewerefifty]

Nor would I normally go through another's belongings without permission.

...we are all of us tangled in each other's dreams. Somewhere here, there will be a way out-- but it's usually found through memory.

[permanentlyexhaustedbird]

So you're saying the only way out is if you rifle through more of my memories?

[Tim clearly does not believe this at all going by the very sceptical look he's giving you]

[therewerefifty]

Or I suppose we are trapped together until morning. Eventually, of course, we must wake.

[Tim gives a frustrated groan and runs his hands over his eyes]

Alright, well... what have you seen so far?

[therewerefifty]

[She gives him the blandest look.]

There was a fair-haired girl. She hit you with a brick.

[permanentlyexhaustedbird]

Oh.. Spoiler. [There's a little private smile] Yes, that's how we met.

Alright, so you just need a few memories and then you just.. wake up? move on to the next brain?

[therewerefifty]

I suppose so... I believe Kitty would say it's not an 'exact science'. I'm not even sure what the point of them doing this to us is.

[permanentlyexhaustedbird]

Drama, I imagine. I imagine a lot of us have secrets we want to keep or just things we wish not to relive and this stirs all of that up again for them to watch the fall out of.

[therewerefifty]

So you think they... televise... our dreams?

[That seems rude. But ultimately, not surprising in the slightest.]

They call it "Calibrations".

[permanentlyexhaustedbird]

I can't imagine why they wouldn't? If they watch our every move I can't imagine that our pasts and how others react to them wouldn't be something they'd want to watch?

I wonder what they're Calibrating though, if at all.

[therewerefifty]

I think I would first have to understand what calibrating means.

[Sheepishly. Like... she's from the 18th century so it's not common, but it occurs to her she should have asked before this.]
