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.

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

nah, it's nothing like that. your wordsmithery is just simply wasted upon those with thick skulls

[numinousname]

And you meet so many of them as to consider speaking a mistake?

[fitshaced]

more or less.

that's the downside of the work i do, you see. the villages and cities with leaders who actually give a shit about their people don't usually need someone like me to step in because they've done what's necessary already. those ones usually only ask when the threat they're facing is more than they can handle. they don't let it get bad before asking for help.

[numinousname]

A hazard of the job, then.
It takes a strong tolerance for intolerance to be able to deal with that, I imagine.

[fitshaced]

i'll put up with whatever dickhead i need to deal with in order to do my job. i wasn't raised to turn my back on innocent people because one man thinks himself above it all.

they're the reason i do it in the first place.

[numinousname]

You’re a very admirable person, Trevor.

[fitshaced]

thank you?

[???????????? what the fuck is a compliment]

i'd hope not to be that unique though, and there's more people willing to do the same if it's within their ability

[numinousname]

I too hope that. So far, I believe we are in good company.

[fitshaced]

certainly seems to be that way. gotta admit it's a refreshing change of pace.

[numinousname]

Do try to not fall out of practice in facing trying personalities.

[fitshaced]

i've got many years of it under my belt already. fairly certain i'd have to be here a long, long time before i'd fall out of practice.

[numinousname]

Good; the people who rely on you need not fret, then. Nor shall I.
I may think to call upon you when faced with such a challenge, myself...

[fitshaced]

that's right. some asshole giving you trouble then you just call on your good friend, trevor belmont. i'll sort them out real fucking quick.

[numinousname]

[after a minor delay.]

Does this mean I have your permission to call you a friend?

[fitshaced]

course you can. not that you exactly needed my permission in the first place.

[numinousname]

I would never be so presumptuous of something that important.
Thank you. Truly.
I will try to be worthy of the station.

[fitshaced]

i don't think you gotta worry too much about being worthy or not, tristan. just keep doing what you're doing, and you'll be fine.

[numinousname]

You are not the first to say something similar...I suppose it must be true. [except it's all "do what you do Tristan" all up until they're walking into a pack of shadow-blighted monsters and exploding and THEN suddenly it's a problem and we gotta rethink our actions??? make it make sense]

[fitshaced]

just because you haven't got all your memories doesn't mean you don't have things under control

[numinousname]

Merely the sense of it, I suppose. No more or less than anyone else has means to, even with experience behind them.

[fitshaced]

there's value in faking it until you make it

[numinousname]

As actors do, yes?
Perhaps so.
I can only try, in the end.
