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.

Shetland Sheepdog, as I am a fast learner and a natural protector.
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.
( it could always be worse. this is - an inconvenience, but not a terrible one. he didn't miss anything back home when he'd returned there, had simply been dropped right where he'd left. )
( there are things to do that aren't sleep, accelerator.
but damian does know where that is, so he - makes his way on over easily enough. doesn't use the door to let himself in, but accelerator will see the hook of his grapple on the edge of his windowsill, moments before damian himself pops over the edge. he's not in uniform, either, it's just
stairs are boring, as are doors.
opening the window is significantly less difficult than climbing walls with one arm, and damian makes quick work of the lock before dropping on in and leaving the grapple on the inside of the window, for later. there's a small pack strapped to his back, which he removes as he walks over to the dining room table. )
[Accelerator is on the couch reading when he hears the strange noise coming from outside, and he pauses when he hears it, straightening up. That's about all he does as he watches Damian climb in through the window. For a second he opens his mouth, about to say there's a fucking door, but he can't really speak. His idea of entering a building is to kick the door in.
So instead he sighs, putting the book down on the coffee table before grabbing his crutch to get up.]
I thought it'd be a good idea. [Laura is a very capable kid, but she's still a kid. He didn't want her to be alone.] You got taller.
I told you I would. It's only a matter of time until I catch up with Father.
( damian is built to grow: he's hit that odd in between point where his shoulders are a little too wide for the rest of his frame, where it's clear he still has some growing to do in order to look like he's filling in properly. whether or not he manages to become as tall as bruce wayne - well. that's something yet to be seen.
accelerator gets up to make his way over to damian, and damian unzips his pack, pulling out a small container of needles, different colored threads, and a few pieces of shredded fabric. )
[Chances are Damian's going to end up taller than him, which won't be the least bit surprising. Most guys are already, and with his hormone problems he's fairly sure his own body has quit growing, so this is likely it for him.]
How tall is he?
[He drops into a chair at the table, looking over the sewing stuff Damian to pulling out.]
Six feet, two inches. Or one hundred and eighty eight centimeters.
( so, tall. and not only tall, but broad. his father is a tank, built to dish out damage as much as he can take it.
but he's useless when it comes to things like this. damian takes a needle out of the container, and sets it along with some thread in front of accelerator. )
Thread the needle, then pull the thread through so it's doubled up.
[It's hard to picture, but only because he's only ever known Damian as being tinier than himself. It's always hard picturing kids all grown up!
Accelerator looks down at the needle and thread, shrugging a bit and taking them up in his hands.]
Alright. [His first attempt goes poorly, to the surprise of no one. Since he isn't relying on his power he's got the level of a dexterity of a weak high schooler. Squinting, he's taking this seriously, and after a few tries he manages to get it.]
( his grandfather is ridiculously tall, his father is obnoxiously large, his mother is - above average for a woman, albeit not ridiculously tall. damian's chances of outgrowing accelerator, at the minimum, are extremely high.
while accelerator tries to thread the needle, damian watches quietly. waits, until he's managed to thread it, then reaches back into the sewing kit for a small plastic needle threader, and slides it across the table. )
You'll likely have one of these and not need to manage that by hand, but knowing how to is always better than not.
( and it's then that he reaches for the shredded fabric, but he's not offering it out yet. )
Wrap the end of the thread around the needle a few times, then lead it down the length of the needle and over the thread to make a knot at the end of the thread.
[Accelerator has long accepted that, with his hormone balance, this is likely it for him, so he isn't particularly bothered. Most people (guys, at least) are going to end up taller than him, it's just a fact of life.
He takes the needle threader, nodding and making a mental note to try and not rely on it very much, and follows Damian's next instructions. Making a knot at the end of the thread is a bit easier than threading the needle, and when he does it he eyes the fabric scraps.]
I take it those are for practice, right?
[That's what he needs, after all. He doesn't want to jump straight into fixing the tears in Laura's jean jacket, chances are if he does that he'll only ruin it.]
They're scraps I was unable to salvage, so you're free to use them as you'd like.
( some pieces are a little thicker - kevlar, pieces of damian's old tunic. he's reused the rest of the fabric for other things, but these? may as well be practice scraps. )
This is for Laura, yes?
( he's well-aware of what happens to her clothing, given how she fights. )
You can use thread to patch over tears and get it as close to it's original form as possible, or you can use it to make creative patches over torn fabric.
( which is what he's getting at here. damian picks up a scrap himself, threading his own needle with a soft pink, thicker thread. when he begins to work to cover the rip, he tilts his piece of fabric forward so accelerator can more clearly watch what he's doing: rather than make small stitches, like one would generally anticipate when patching holes, he's leaving the thread loose enough to create flower petals to cover the rip. )
Okay. I'm not sure how well that kind of material can be sewn up without looking fucking awful, so patching it might be the better option.
[Lowering his own needle and thread, he watches Damian work with a serious expression on his face. Is he memorizing every little movement? Absolutely, he doesn't want to mess this up.]
( he isn't used to teaching, but damian can slow down enough so his movements are easy to follow. rather than smaller stitches, he's doing large loops and doubling over them to ensure they won't come loose as he creates the shape of a flower in he material he's working with. once he's done with the pink thread, he loops the needle through a looser piece of thread on the inside, creates a knot, and bites it off with his teeth.
so he can go back over with yellow for the center of the flower. they're not something damian would attempt to create when mending his own clothing, but flowers are simple enough to follow along with for a beginner, and he assumes they're the sort laura would appreciate also. )
Jean jackets are difficult to patch if it isn't right on the seam, and Laura would appreciate the effort to create something out of a rip rather than just trying to repair it as if nothing ever happened.
[Observing is at least one of Accelerator's specialty, so he doesn't have any problem memorizing what Damian does. It's all committed to his memory, raising an eyebrow as the flower shape is gradually formed. It never occurred to him to actually create something over the tear instead of just adding a patch, but it makes sense when you think about it. It's much more aesthetically pleasing.]
So I should make something like that, then. [He waves a hand at the flower.]
You can if you would like to. I think Laura would appreciate it.
( how hard would it be to manage a horse? damian will add figuring that out to his list of things to do. for now? he finishes his flower, and slides the fabric across the table to accelerator. )
There are different knots and patterns you can use to create decorative patches that suit your wants. This one is simple.

It was when I returned home.

[He reaches to shuffle the scraps of fabric around, making sure the thicker stuff is in its own pile, since it'll be his priority to practice on.]
Yeah. Her jean jacket's a mess, and I don't think she should worry about having to fix it herself.
