CHIRPER

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

There are a few ways to interact with CHIRPER:
  • Characters receive a notification to please fill out the form, which is fully optional. There is a character requirement of two characters per answer field. This is to discourage leaving the spaces blank.
  • When forms are not filled out, they can be filled out by the companion bots of Etraya!
  • Other characters can be prompted to fill out their friends' profiles for them. This includes the Q&A section!
  • Alternatively, they choose not to fill out the form, and it remains unfilled! These unfilled profiles will not be posted live.
  • Characters either like or dislike others CHIRPER profiles. These responses are private between the characters involved.

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.

Please feel free to switch out any of the Q&A questions with those listed here! We have an example of a filled out form here.

What did you think of Butler's book?

It was interesting. Butler does a good job of making you consider some real fucked up questions when it comes to power and control.

A number of her books do that. Challenge the expectations of the time, and ask people to open their minds to a broader view.

Is it your first book of her, or are you a long term fan?

Right.

I'm reading the entire series. Finch recommended her books to me.

[Probably because he figured she'd be challenging for him.]

He's got good taste.

If you end up liking that series, you should consider her short stories or Earthseed, too.
levelshift: (sigh)

[personal profile] levelshift 2025-06-11 01:10 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. I've got nothing better to do around here, so if the library has her entire bibliography I may as well read it.

Do you prefer the physical or digital copies?

I can keep an eye on your returns and have one or two other standalones or series starters ready in waiting.

[What on earth is this nice gesture, he is having none of it.]

You don't need to do that.
her_own_rules: Smile, Babs (The Heart)

[personal profile] her_own_rules 2025-06-13 08:00 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Oh. Well. She's definitely doing that. ]

I don't have to. But it's part of the job.
Just keeping tabs on things for the people here.

I can add it to the system I'm making.
levelshift: (hmph)

[personal profile] levelshift 2025-06-13 10:37 pm (UTC)(link)
No one has a necessary job here.

[There's no currency and no need to worry about working to earn a living, after all, so she doesn't need to do her job in his direction.]

If you're really intent on finding something to do you're better off spending your time helping other people.
