⏵ 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.

I need more wine. [There are bigger problems in the world(s) than his lack of good rice wine, but boy does he look put out!] I've found something called beer and it's disgusting. I can only stand it if I'm already drunk. I'm not sure what they fermented, but it has gone bad.

[Why is he getting drunk?]

I'm not up for lectures, either. [This is just how he is when stressed. He either kills someone or drinks himself stupid. Actually, he usually does both.]

My body can purify my blood after a single night, so don't fuss.

[When the video starts, it's what appears to be a static image, from the point of view of someone sitting in one of the trolley seats. There are large claw marks spanning the side and it looks pretty banged up, but overall intact.

It's also not moving, which might not normally be a problem if not for the fact of where it's currently sitting.]

Hello? I don't want to alarm anyone, but...

[Chrissy sounds out of breath, but otherwise fine?]

One of those big birds- the chocobos?- it did this. The claw marks, that is. Something else happened and the entire thing went flying at it.

[Something else happened, she says, as though she hadn't managed to get a clear enough look at the one responsible for shoving the trolley. But she also has no idea what all of that was about, so she's not particularly in the mood to point fingers right now.

The view shifts a little, to get a better look out the window.]

I'm also not entirely sure where I am? I don't think I've ever been here before, so I'm not sure what to do now.

[Other than wait for now?]

⏵ CHIRPER ⏴Welcome to our bi-monthly CHIRPER post!

There are a few ways characters can interact with this:

Characters receive a notification to please fill out the form, which is fully optional.
When forms are not filled out, they are filled out by the companion bots of Etraya! This means that while the character themself is not choosing to play with CHIRPER, their player still can.
Other characters can be prompted to fill out their friends' profiles for them.
Alternatively, they choose not to fill out the form, and it remains unfilled!

This is just a fun little way of expanding CR. 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.

Once characters' profiles are up, other characters will be given the option of giving them a "like" or a "dislike" (using ✓ and ✕ symbols in the subject line of the comment) but they can also provide an answer as to why they gave that answer! Or just respond to the contents of their profile, +1ing the fact that if Barnabas were to get laid more often, maybe he would be less of a sourpuss.

what's a ship

not the transportation means. you say the transportation means, you're not funny.

ghostlord

[He has set up dummies - a small army of them - and he walks before them, one arm behind his back, holding his fan.]

When it comes to Zhou Zishu and myself...

[He comes to a halt before the dummies and stands straight, a living weapon.]

If I hear any gossip regarding us...

[The fan is unveiled in full and with a slash, it takes off one head, another, another - a whole line of them - before it returns to Wen Kexing's hand.]

Are we clear?

you think you'll survive? let's place some bets.

Does anyone know a good way to ward off ghosts?

Back home, I had candles and a pendant. I had a sword, but those are rare.

[ ... ]

Thanks.

ghostlord

It's good to return to my former splendor. I know not to bite the hand that feeds me, but being treated as less than an honest Lord plucked at my ego.

[Is he being honest or just overly dramatic? It's hard to tell over text!]

Now, children, I want you to return to your studies. Read everything you can get your hands on, listen, listen to even the must mundane things and share. I know you will do your best and make your father proud.

[...father? Is that him? The drama continues!]

[ In line with the ongoing events here. More or less. ]

[ Queue a video feed. There was probably a bit of audio, the typical noises of someone figuring out a new system and trying to find the video button. ...Aha! There is Gaia, sitting on one of the trolley cars. Behind her, mostly in frame, is Cidolfus Telemon. He probably looks okay. But Gaia's words suggest he's not. ]

I hope this is right. I'm on the blue line trolley between... the Farway stop and the next island. A man named Cid just jumped on after burning his aether to a life threatening level. Because he missed it while picking up something at a place called the Kwik Stop.

I don't have healing spells, so I'd appreciate anyone that can catch up to the trolley who might come and look him over. It's not exactly fast.

Well, if anyone's looking for him and worried, he's here.

[ She sounds more than a little bit ~~worried~~ exasperated. ]

ghostlord

It's cold and people are looking for company. No one wants to suffer in a new world alone. {He seems amused, fanning himself and lounging as if he doesn't have a care in the world.}

I suggest when you're looking for a mate, take a good look at their shoulder-blades. Of course the one who has the loveliest shoulder-blades is already spoken for, but I encourage you to find second and third place. I think it's a worthwhile endeavor!

[A pretty man with red hair and a thick grey fur shawl around his shoulders appears, seeming hesitant for a moment. He understands that this is how it works, having seen it before. Still. It’s new to him. ]

Good evening. [For those who speak English or its interdimensional equivalents will hear a thick Scandinavian accent. His voice is clear and confident, and he offers a warm smile to the camera.]

Though the snow and creature-rearing has kept us busy and indoors these past weeks, there is no reason we cannot get to know one another. Afterall, must we wait until spring to match-make? So much idle time, so much plentiful food… I think we should all become better acquainted.

My name is Ragnvaldr, the qualities that make me a good husband include hunting, fishing, wood-chopping, and leather making. Also, I am literate.

Hello, everyone! [ comes a chipper greeting. This is Rosie's first time addressing the collective of displaced individuals like herself, so... She wants to make a good impression!

As she talks though, her hands are busy working beneath the framed screen on something. It sounds like paper being folded, maybe, but she's able to look away from it to smile into the lens. ]

The end of the year usually means lots of holidays where I'm from, which got me thinking what other worlds might celebrate. I figured it might be fun to talk about and, like, compare notes in a way!

Specifically: What are your New Year's traditions? Mine always involved lots of special food and it's the only day of the year you'll catch me awake at sunrise, but- I'd like to know what other people do! [ She pauses briefly as something occurs to her- ] Even if your New Year isn't the first too! Some cultures on my world could also be using different calendars so their new year wasn't until later.

[ That seems to be it, maybe, as she pauses again. She promised (herself, mostly) she'd try to let people in a little more so... ]

I'm also, uh, not used to doing a New Year's celebration by myself anymore, so- If anyone wants to do anything together, like, you can just. Let me know!

[ Before she can embarrass herself any further, the blond reaches out to end the video hastily. ]

[Since there seems to be tension, Wen Kexing offers what comfort he can in the form of his flute. Sit back, close your eyes and listen. The piece in question is meant to soothe the mind, the body and soul, allowing for healing and restful sleep. But it's also rather sad; he isn't the sort of man that can play bright, happy songs, especially since he noticed one of his friends is missing.

Ah well. Such is the nature of this world.

Eventually he will speak, his deep voice soft so as to not ruin the mood.]

People come and go. I don't even see the point of creating a memorial. Our time here is purposefully brief.

[Is he trying to convince himself? Could be.]

Get some rest. We don't know what tomorrow will bring.

Hey Does anyone know where I can get a guitar Or a bass or a fucking ukelele whatever I don’t really care as long it’s in the same family, but I prefer guitar. I just need something to do besides draw and compose or else my brain is going to break in half like a dusty twig and it’s already half way there Oh and inanimates are fine too, thanks

We're all just posing questions to each other for fun, right?

Then, is immortality wrong for mortals to experience?

Hello, citizens of Etraya.

Our next mission will begin on Friday, November 8th. I will be assigning each of you to a team, and you and your team will be tasked with constructing a vehicle. Once completed, you’ll race your vehicle against other teams. The winning team will be awarded a special prize and will also have a hand in selecting the theme of our next mission.

The objective of this mission is simple: demonstrate your teamwork, creativity, and your resourcefulness in overcoming challenges.

There are no losers.

Thank you,
Aurora

[ Zishu knows this post is rather...belated. However it should still be made, so he finally addresses the network at large. ]

As Wen Kexing has so kindly made himself a menace in our new home, if he goes too far, I ask for a message to be sent to me. If that is too much a bother, send him my way. I am Zhou Zishu.

[ And, since he's sure his silly soulmate is watching, he grins a little. ]

He's a bit of a peacock, but I won't have him harmed. Consider this your warning.

ghostlord

"A truly wise man does not display his wisdom. Such is the secret of being well-liked."

I am late in introducing myself to the masses, do forgive me. I am Wen Kexing and I hail from the same world as none other than Zhou Zishu!

[Imagine him giving him the greatest speech. Only through text.]

I admire the adventurous spirits of the few I have met in person. What else shall we discover about our temporary abode? Are there tragic secrets that would break the strongest heart? Or perhaps treasure for us to carry home, to live like kings, like emperors once our tasks are done?

Remember, don't be greedy.

[Though he probably will be despite his username.]

@RK800
We're live.
Hello Etraya, this is Connor. Accelerator and I would like to share our recent findings after exploring the lower floors of the hospital with Yuri and Dimitri. Clint Barton was also involved, but he is no longer here. I apologize if this is new information for you.
Please keep in mind we are strongly advising against investigation.

@Accelerator
There's dangerous shit down there. Everyone had better read this, because it's fucking important.

@RK800
Floors 1-5 are relatively empty. The 8th floor is primarily filled with alien technology, which I believe is a direct correlation to being disconnected from the network from that point onward. You will not be able to reach anyone if you are in danger.

@Acclerator
Once you get to the 8th floor the oxygen levels start to drop. The companion bots will get aggressive and attack you, too. It's like white blood cells attacking foreign entities in someone's body for protection, it's obvious we aren't supposed to be down there.

@RK800
Correct. After the 10th floor, humans were only able to continue with specialized assistance. There are 100 floors that we are aware of. The atmospheric conditions become increasingly unstable, including a change in the planet's gravitational force, with a high concentration of carbon dioxide and helium. The severe change in gravity causes an elevation of heat, and I was compromised. No one can survive it.

@Accelerator
Don't go down there unless you're prepared to deal with being in an environment like the goddamn core of a planet.
I think that's about it. Connor, you sure it's no problem altering the network so all this is public?

@RK800
Since I'm able to access the network after downloading its signature, any adjustments I've made are temporary. No permanent alterations to Etraya's actual network code has been made, so there shouldn't be any issue.

( ooc: responses will be from either/both connor and accelerator! feel free to threadjack, go wild, etc. coding credit to tessisamess )
( edit: i forgot to include this but pretty pls w a cherry on top fill out connor's permissions ♥ but if you don't that's ok, i'll reach out of we get into infomod territory! )
