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, profiles are worth 5 extra points regardless of if they are put up willingly by the character themselves. These 5 extra points do apply to the 25 maximum per month.

This month there is a special ✨ HOLIDAY 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!

have a tree for your stance on the goat alone

dude, idk why so many ppl wanna torch it!!!
who knows...
maybe we would get cursed if it's destroyed
who wants to go into the new year with that kinda karma???

[demigoth]

It's a good stance.

And yeah. I don't know why everyone's into burning it either! if it didn't look RECOGNIZABLY like an animal or creature I wouldn't be worried. Go burn a straw dollhouse. What do I care?

But the goat is absolutely cursing someone. Maybe it's their gods preferred animal shape?

[critpei]

could be!
i won't judge
they can keep their weird creepy goat

ohhhhh dude, tho!!!
think maybe we'll be ""blessed"" for defending it??

[demigoth]

I mean I'll judge the people who want to burn it? Does that count?

But yeah, let them keep the weird goat. Just because it's not my religion doesn't mean it can't be theirs.

I don't know if that's how it works? Even if their gods are real too, I don't know a lot of religions where the gods bless someone who defended them or their people that don't end with the blessed person converting. And I'm not converting, even if the goat god is real.

[critpei]

yeah, you're prob right about the "blessing"
altho
if their god was super hot....
maaaaaybe i'd consider converting 😌

[ Junpei over here, prioritizing the things that matter. ]

but if it takes the form of a goat
probably NOT hot
oh well

i'm junpei btw
haven't meet many other ppl around my age in this place
so you, my dude, are a breath of fresh air
we should hang sometime!

[demigoth]

I can't believe I have to say this but you know dating a god is a really bad idea right? There are EPICS about how bad of an idea it is.

Also, just because a god takes the form of an animal when they're bored doesn't mean they're not hot the rest of the time.

I'm Nico. Nobody really calls me a breath of fresh air but yeah we could hang out.

[critpei]

oh?
so you know a thing or two about gods?
specifically their love life??

you just an enthusiast
or you got some kinda insider knowledge?

for the record tho....
i wasn't really talking about DATING

[ Goonpei Iori, at your service. ]

[demigoth]

My dad's the Greek god of the Underworld.

[ And that's it. Nico's going to leave it hanging here to give Junpei a chance to walk any of that back he wants. Hopefully, he doesn't make any untoward comments about Nico's mom. ]

[critpei]

oh shit
so you're part god???

[ Now THAT'S a plot twist. ]

idk much about greek mythology
but i was doing some googling back home
and the personas me and my team use are mostly greek gods
mine's hermes if that means anything to you?

[demigoth]

Yeah? I'm a demigod.

[ Nico's not really sure how to feel about that reaction - he wants to downplay it, maybe wants to be a little proud of it, but mostly he's just... confused, really, at having it be taken at face value and yet it's someone who apparently doesn't know much about Greek mythology?

Things were a lot more straightforward when he didn't meet new people so often. ]

I don't know what mean by personas, but yeah. I know who Hermes is. God of travellers, thieves, annd anbout 20 other things. He keeps busy.

Apollo is running around Etraya, btw. So's Zagreus.

[critpei]

[ A demigod. Jesus. Everyone he's met has been so freaking cool. Junpei brightens when Nico mentions knowing Hermes and also lists the accomplishments of Hermes. Junpei's not Hermes, but because that is the form his Persona takes -- in a way it kind of feels like he is. He's tempted to ask more about him, to try and dig into all the tales of the great, amazing Hermes -- but Junpei recognizes that would probably be annoying, so instead he types: ]

i'll have to show you at some point what a persona is
whenever i get access to my powers again

[ IF he gets access to his powers again. But he pushes that thought aside. ]

i've heard of apollo...vaguely
like the name but not much else about him
idk who zagreus is tho
are they your friends?
cuz you should totally introduce me, dude!
