There are a few ways characters can interact with this:
Characters receive a notification to please fill out the form, which is fully optional.
When forms are not filled out, they are filled out by the companion bots of Etraya! This means that while the character themself is not choosing to play with CHIRPER, their player still can.
Other characters can be prompted to fill out their friends' profiles for them.
Alternatively, they choose not to fill out the form, and it remains unfilled!
This is just a fun little way of expanding CR. For those who do post a top level, CHIRPER toplevels are worth five extra points regardless of if they are put up willingly by the character themselves. These five extra points do apply to the 25 maximum per month.
Once characters' profiles are up, other characters will be given the option of giving them a "like" or a "dislike" (using ✓ and ✕ symbols in the subject line of the comment) but they can also provide an answer as to why they gave that answer! Or just respond to the contents of their profile, +1ing the fact that if Barnabas were to get laid more often, maybe he would be less of a sourpuss.

Hello. My name is Aurora. My duty is to oversee your comfort and the daily workings of Etraya, as well as provide information for upcoming missions.
( weird is definitely a word for it. especially to go from having none to... four. throw in the whole when they all seem to know a version of you, while you don't have any idea who they are cherry on top. weird is a word for it. )
They're old enough to handle themselves. Though I mostly stay with the youngest. It takes getting used to.
I imagine it's similar for you? The getting used to it part.
I guess both of mine are old enough, but I still worry about them. This place is safe enough, but there are still parts they probably shouldn't go trapezing through. Like the hospital's basement.
And, you know, I'm not totally sure the one likes me. Is that normal? Did your kids just automatically like you, or did you have to work at it?
( suffice it to say he's also getting used to it. )
( it's been a rocky path getting him to see and accept others at his side here. back home, it's only ever been alfred and, even then, he's not the one out there on the streets with him. here? having a shadow everywhere he goes, even when in his suit, has been an adjustment for him. never mind having others live with him who aren't his father figure. )
Do you feel the pressure of that? To be what they expect?

Weird.
Like, it's cool and all, but it's also super weird, right?
( going from zero kids to TWO KIDS overnight is such a leap!! )
You doing okay with them?

I didn't really care if they liked me or not. I'm not the man they have for their father. Just some other version.
( he can admit that's how he largely felt to suddenly be shadowed constantly and told he doesn't know what's best for himself. )
But things change over time.

Yeah, but even if we're not THAT version, I mean... we're the closest thing they've got.
We can't let them be alone.
