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.

Getting to know you!

q: How do you adapt when things don’t go according to plan during a mission?
a: Pause, take a long breath, and assess what new routes have opened after a plan has been interrupted. Just because things do not go as expected, does not mean that we must stop.

q: What do you miss most about your home world?
a: My friends - my family.

q: How do you support or encourage others during difficult times?
a: Many simply need someone to listen to their troubles. If not their troubles, then just be a presence for them. Things are less difficult when you know you have someone with you. Plans and next steps will come with time, but knowing you are not alone must come first.

q: Can you tell us about a friend —or an adversary— you’ve made in Etraya?
a: There's a young man named Riz here, he is smaller in stature than most I have met, but his heart and his intelligence are greater than many others'. An old mission had us refer to each other as family and admittedly I have not shaken the familial feelings yet.

q: Do you have any personal traditions or hobbies that help you feel more at home?
a: I have treated many places as home - as my homes over the years have changed many times. I try to start a garden or keep a small collection of plants to care for wherever I end up. It helps remind me that my powers are not wholly destructive. Storms are destructive, but their rains bring life, too.

mainly because you seem super cool and interesting. I really like that, what you wrote about when things don't go according to plan.

I'm guessing you have a lot of experience there huh?
agoddessonce: (timelines)

[personal profile] agoddessonce 2025-06-11 11:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Unfortunately, yes. I have had plenty of plans that don't go smoothly. But adapting is important. It helps us survive.
ingestion: (pic#17598778)

[personal profile] ingestion 2025-06-11 11:50 pm (UTC)(link)
it helps us survive....you're right.

you got any other life advice? you seem like you have a good head on your shoulders.
agoddessonce: ([jean] reassured)

[personal profile] agoddessonce 2025-06-11 11:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Any advice we offer must be crafted to suit a person's life - and we all have different lives, don't we?

Unless you are seeking something broadly helpful, such as: always take time for ice cream?
ingestion: (pic#17598647)

[personal profile] ingestion 2025-06-13 03:24 pm (UTC)(link)
you make a great point, on both fronts really. have you ever considered giving a speech or seminar? I feel like you could uplift people here after a rough mission or two.

( not that she's trying to force her into anything, really heather is just truly flattering her. )

speaking of, I will be following that advice. time for ice cream, thank you.
agoddessonce: (warm)

[personal profile] agoddessonce 2025-06-14 01:06 am (UTC)(link)
I've been invited to do a few over the years. I think the last one I did was at a girls' summer camp for science and technology. It was not exactly related to missions, but I hope that it was uplifting.

Still, I am glad to have provided you with one useful tidbit of advice. I hope you enjoy that ice cream with a friend.
ingestion: (pic#17598625)

[personal profile] ingestion 2025-06-18 03:40 pm (UTC)(link)
look at you, guess I was righting in assume you'd be good at giving advice.

and yeah, I think I will. a while back we had these eggs that had animals hatch out of them if you took care of them. I ended up with a pet rat who enjoys doing tricks so I can assure you, I'm enjoying that ice cream with a pretty good friend.
agoddessonce: (right...?)

[personal profile] agoddessonce 2025-06-21 01:59 pm (UTC)(link)
My apologies, but you received a rat hatched from an egg? A regular-sized one?

And it can eat ice cream?


[ So many "???" would pop out around Ororo if she were only in some visual, illustrated medium like, say, a comic book. ]
ingestion: (pic#17598664)

[personal profile] ingestion 2025-06-24 04:27 am (UTC)(link)
yeah and here's the kicker, you ready?

okay he does tricks. I don't know how he learned the first one, but as soon as he hatched out he began to spin in a circle and only stopped when I praised him. you wanna see?

[ Harold doesn't usually give a check or an X for someone he doesn't know, but he really likes her answers. ]

I'm rather fond of Mr. Gukgak myself.

You have power over storms? That seems immense to me. But I would agree that it need not be inherently destructive.
agoddessonce: (solicitous)

[personal profile] agoddessonce 2025-06-11 11:40 pm (UTC)(link)
[ She's flattered! She just... answered the questions. It's her first Chirper. ]

He's a darling. I quite like him.

I have power over all the elements that make up the atmosphere. Storms are perhaps simply the flashiest and most recognizable force I can control.
ornithologist: (068)

[personal profile] ornithologist 2025-06-11 11:49 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Precisely -- she'd been honest, forthcoming, and demonstrated an impressive amount of wisdom. Harold likes it. ]

I don't know him well but I take your recommendation highly based on your description.

Yet I assume the subtler forces are much more impactful.
agoddessonce: (snow)

[personal profile] agoddessonce 2025-06-11 11:53 pm (UTC)(link)
And are you familiar with such forces, sir?
ornithologist: (089)

[personal profile] ornithologist 2025-06-11 11:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Not personally, but I am a student of science and in that respect I admire the subtleties greatly.
agoddessonce: (flattered)

[personal profile] agoddessonce 2025-06-12 12:04 am (UTC)(link)
What sciences do you study? I am more familiar with those involved with the Earth's climate, but I can appreciate other fields.

[ Ororo tends to like nerds. Sometimes they hyperfixate or overshare and sometimes they disappear into a workshop or theory for long periods of time. ]

[personal profile] ornithologist 2025-06-12 12:11 am (UTC)(link)
[ Harold hyperfixates, overshares, and sometimes disappears, but he's quite socially adept for a nerd, despite his personal feelings to the contrary. ]

I'm primarily a computer scientist. In terms of meteorology I am merely an appreciative observer. In addition, I have been entirely humbled by some of the abilities I've borne witness to here.
agoddessonce: (my kinda crazytown)

[personal profile] agoddessonce 2025-06-12 12:15 am (UTC)(link)
Someone very near and dear to me went to college to study that. I'm afraid that when she starts to go on on firewalls and how to arrange data, I just can't catch up. In that sense, we all have things that humble us. I think that reminds us that it is alright to ask for help.

Flying by the seat of your pants builds character, or so I’ve been told. That, and I've got a healthy disrespect for the rules.

I like you a lot too.

We should catch up some time, Riz. I feel as though I have missed quite a bit. I am hoping for someone to fill me in on what has changed this past year.

[personal profile] stresstokens 2025-06-24 10:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Sure! I'm in a big house now too. My friend's house showed up out of the blue one day. You should come over for coffee or something. And I can share my notes. We finally got to see one of those dying planets Aurora keeps telling us about.
agoddessonce: (stars)

[personal profile] agoddessonce 2025-06-27 03:55 pm (UTC)(link)
You will have to tell me about it. I am very curious as to what the standard for 'dying' is, and how it is that we might be able to help.

[ After all... she knows a little about helping bringing a dead rock of a planet to life. ]

What does your house look like? I will fly over when possible.
