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, or by other characters on behalf of their friends! This includes the Q&A section.
Characters can either like or dislike others' CHIRPER profiles. These responses are public.
This is voluntary on an OOC basis; if the character doesn't have a profile completed by themselves or anyone else, nothing shows up for them on CHIRPER.
For those who do post a top level, CHIRPER profiles 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.

This month there is a special 👻 SPOOKY SEASON 👻 addition: instead of ✓ or ✕ for like or dislike, it's 🎃 and 💀. Whatever the character has the most votes for shows up appended to their username on the network for the next month, as in, un: aurora 💀.

Please feel free to switch out any of the Q&A questions with those listed here!

I have met none, outside of you, who would afford bearers or my sort any level of respect within Sanbreque.

[This does not seem like a comment that should be made next to fashion choices, as so Sleipnir will leave that topic lie. This one is a personal sting and he isn't sure how he'll respond if Dion chooses to deny it. That makes Sleipnir uncomfortable.]

Edited (html) 2025-11-03 21:45 (UTC)

Yet I was no better than my people, in my ignorance. That I had known no other way does not lessen my faults.

[ The normalization of an injustice does not make it less of one, only harder to see. Dion had been complicit, for though he treated Bearers under his command with greater consideration than those around him, they still had been chattel in the Empire. Ensuring they ate and rested, for he knew the heavy toll fatigue would exact on any who channeled aether, hardly erased this.

While he too belonged to his nation, his had been a privileged position. ]

[Again, not the reaction Sleipnir expected of the man.]

It does not, no. However, that you would so readily admit to fault here does you credit, as does your change in behavior.

That you would help me when you need not...the meaning of such care is not wasted on me.

I would only compound my failings if I refused to acknowledge them.

For my part, there did seem a need. Whether I was suitable to fill it or not, I was there.

[ Closing his eyes to Sleipnir's suffering or struggles would have been no better. ]
