Cupid Fact File
The Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids maintained a collection of numbered Cupid Fact Files in the Cupid Archives.
Nature
Cupid Fact Files were written by the Department of Documentation. (PROSE: The Strangely-Colored Secret Societies)
Contents
The “#001” spot was long kept vacant, but eventually filled by a File on the Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids itself. (PROSE: The Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids)
#94 concerned the Euclidean Plane was the first File to be digitised when the Crew decided to start making digital backups of the Archives' contents. (PROSE: The Euclidean Plane)
#177 concerned the Gang of the Green Gorilla, and was mostly given over to a summary of the Skirmish at the Vanityville Supermarket, the Crew's first encounter with the Gorillas. Due to some Cupids having taken the wrong idea from a statement at the end of it, it was later amended with a post-scriptum written on behalf of Amour-159. (PROSE: The Green Gorillas)
#180 concerned the Society of the Rhyming Dove. (PROSE: The Society of the Rhyming Dove)
#184 concerned the Mob of the Maroon Magpie, also summarising the Crew's first meeting with the Mob at some length. (PROSE: The Mob of the Maroon Magpie)
#444 was written in 2019 by Bibliophile-962, and concerned the then-recently-discovered Faction of the Fooling Fish. Midway through the process of being written, the File was vandalised by a member of the Faction, whose additions in indelible green ink largely consisted of self-aggrandising patter, but also revealed a few details of the Fish's history which the Cupids had not previously known. The File was originally written to claim its events had occurred in 2011, rather than 2019, an error which was later corrected; the Cupids were unable to determine whether the File had simply contained a typo, if this was some sort of obtuse joke inserted by the Fish, or if it was an effect of Crocodile retconning. (PROSE: The Faction of the Fooling Fish)
#828 concerned the Strangely-Colored Secret Societies phenomenon. It contained an index of the Crew's Files on specific Societies, as well as the history of it and the First Horde that they had managed to piece together. (PROSE: The Strangely-Colored Secret Societies)
History
Eventually, the Crew grew tired of having to sneak past the Mechanical Sphinx to access their own files, and a program to digitize them was begun (PROSE: The Strangely-Colored Secret Societies) by Technician-042. (PROSE: The Strangely-Colored Secret Societies)
