⏵ 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.

How would you even vet for it, though, you know? Who could even dare try to emulate? And how many people do know hiw works well enough?

I should take a much closer look at all the records in Mr. Finch's library.

The collection there is impressive, though it begs the question what books are allowed to appear there. Is it based on the residents here? Some common works that would be recognizable for most people here?

So far, it seems it's very much the collection he had back home in his world, but I haven't asked him if he's noticed anything missing, or anything added to it. I haven't yet noticed anything I don't recognize, but I'll have to stay on the lookout for it now, too.

[ She's not sure how well he'd know or not. Given both his memory and the utter lack of anything like a cataloging system, previous to adding it to her plate of things to build for the library along with the forthcoming digital platform. ]

You're one of Etraya's librarians then?

I may have offered myself up as a lamb to slaughter for that one. I ended up mentioing that it was a job I did back home, too, for a while, and one thing lead to another and—

[ She doesn't mention how it really fell out. She doesn't need to detail out anyone else's inclination, or lack thereof, with dealing with the people consistently who love the books and the library. You can love them, and want to share them, and still not want to be the person having to handle it all the time. ]

[Kirk certainly won't judge given his own preference for reading over socializing]

Not a bad way to pass the time, given our circumstances here

I thought so, too.

All knowledge is worth having and worth making available to those who would like it, whether that's for education or entertainment. You never know what might help someone to solve parts of mission, or just survive the next day here between arriving and getting to go home.

You've been here long then? It sounds like you've given this a great deal of thought

Since that second month, with the second wave of those brought here.

You?

Only since December

[ Half a year. It's so much more normal now.
And yet, that doesn't make it anymore right. ]

How are you doing with it?

There've been challenges but I've adapted.

[Too bad the food situation still isn't the most ideal during off-world missions]

What about you?
