CHIRPER

⏵ CHIRPER ⏴
Welcome to our bi-monthly CHIRPER post!

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.

Extra ply?

Oh shit y'all have a deli? That's honestly a great combination. emotional support sandwich

sorry our operation is running on good will and whatever I can find.

as for that, it's in the works. the idea is to request a building, first floor a bodega style place that happens to have a deli, and the top floor for my office.

I understand, I'll take whatever ply tissue I can get

That's honestly cool though. An office and everything, it sounds really professional
So you really are going to let people come talk about their troubles? Like kind of a counselor type thing?

I'm not going to lie to you and tell you this is super professional like in the movies and what not, but back home I worked as a youth teen counselor briefly, over the phone and I thought hey, why not bring that here?

I'm not giving advice though. for legal reasons.


( not that anyone would go after her legally here, she just didn't want to get blamed for poor decision making. )

That's really cool of you

[ How many times are you going to say "really cool", Peter... but coming from one (1) Teenage Stoner Boy, it's an authentic compliment.

Though he's grateful this is over text now, because he can feel his pulse get quicker, buzzing with a nervous, kneejerk anxiety.
]

My dad was a psychiatrist, so I guess I kind of grew up around that sort of stuff, too

I bet there's a lot of people who could use an ear around here. This whole situation's pretty fucked up


[ (Him too, but he's terrified of the thought, the way he was back home, flinching back from the idea of getting some help just as much as he desperately wanted it.) ]

( she's flattered really—

so many years spent proving she was cool, free and liberated from the constraints of who she was to be to finally be called cool by someone equally cool. she won't comment on it, but he's already moved to the top of list of people she likes here. )


sounds like you know, based on what you've told me. is etraya at least less 'fucked' than that other world you came from?

and by the way, you don't need to come to my office to hangout. I'll be running the bodega from time to time too. you could swing by for a sandwich anytime, on me.

So far, it definitely is a lot less fucked than that City place. At least here, I know what's real and what isn't. Mostly

[ When he doesn't, it's because of his "episodes" that have him so frequently losing touch with reality. To be sure, this place seems to be making those episodes worse and he's not sure why... but he knows the problem comes from him. Outside of that, Etraya's much less of a mindfuck than The City was.

Heather's offer makes that weird nervous tension that was building in him pause and flutter away. He's not sure he's ready to talk to anyone about his problems yet — though the concept of talking to someone around his age does feel a lot less scary, so maybe...maybe he could try it? Sometime soon? — but her offer immediately lets him take a breath of relief.
]

Dude, that would be great
I could really use a sandwich


[ ...And the company of A Fellow Young Person, even if he's too shy to say that part. It's been so long that he hung out with someone and felt normal, and so far Heather's been a much-needed dose of that. He'd like to hang out with her more. ]

And I'd like to at least come see your office sometime too, check it out, show some support
If you need any more help getting it set up, just lmk. I can carry boxes. Reach things on the top shelves. They call me Mr. Useful back home
(Nobody calls me that)

( things were best taken one step at a time and while heather was more than used to seeing the worst imaginable shit, she also understood how the teen mind worked. food was bait in a way, but not really. she just wanted to make sure none of the items went to waste and that harold's dream of having a thriving bodega in etraya came true.

besides that she quite liked peter and he did her a solid on that last mission no matter how dumb it was. )


well it's upstairs to the bodega, so you'll be able to see it. and really? well I-

( just as she was about to type out more, she saw that last message. very funny, he now has a new nickname unfortunately. )

okay mr. useful, I'll put you to work after we snack on our sandwiches and chips then. I have a table gifted to me from the dump I need to get up there anyways.
