( 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.

Felix stands in mute horror as the scene plays out, so shocked that he doesn't even think to turn away. He's personally been through some fucked up stuff, but this is--
The feelings are pretty bad too, but at least they're something different from the shock he's feeling himself. The anger feels purer too.
Finally, there's the tap on his shoulder, and Felix turns on his heel almost defensively. But when it's revealed to be...a different version of the man about to be sexually assaulted, he lets out a shuddering breath.]
....Okay.
[Without much protest, he makes his way to the indicated exit. Once he's back in the office, he just stands there, scrubbing his hands against his face.]
Shit....

And then he'll go back to sit behind his desk.]
I am sorry, that was probably a bit more than your 'fair share'.
[He sounds remarkably unperturbed given what has transpired about what has happened to him.]
no subject
When he hears Lyall approach, Felix lifts his head and...takes the tea. He guesses. And sips it because...well, it's a distraction, at least.]
No, I...
I'm sorry...that that happened to you.
no subject
[he is now ordering the stacks on the desk again.]
Besides, it was more than fifty years ago. It's long past.
no subject
...Why was it likely to happen?
[He's treading carefully, the question almost soft. Which might be a little silly. This isn't...well. He doesn't think this is the real Lyall. Though he's not entirely sure either.]
If you don't mind talking about it.

[Lyall is saying all this matter-of-factly, leaning back into his chair and steepling his fingers together.]
One could say eternal life makes everyone go a bit funny in the head of course. But for some reason, it is worse for werevolves than for vampires. This is why we have challenges for dominance. When an Alpha goes bad, he is eliminated by a younger one who will take his place and lead the pack.
I have bene the beta of this pack for hundreds of years. I felt him go bad first. But there wasn't anyone around who could fight him and win. I had to... create the opportunity. And int he meantime, I had to keep the pack together and protect it. Even from him, if need be. Because this is what a Beta does.
