Celebration-665

From Jenny Everywhere Wiki

Celebration-665 was a Clockwork Cherub and member of the Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids, being the Prefect of the Crew's Department of Festivities.

Biography

Celebration was obsessed with organising reckless, dangerously-raucous parties; for example, he once accidentally caused the explosion of a warehouse where he had organised a nondescript anniversary party. This made an enemy of Foreman-964. (PROSE: The Cupid Suggestion Box) When the Cupid Suggestion Box was in use, he left a suggestion to invite the Gang of the Green Gorilla, who he'd heard were “real party animals”, with no apparent awareness that the Gorillas were sworn enemies of the Crew. (PROSE: The Cupid Suggestion Box)

On Halloween 2019, as usual, Celebration and his Department did their best to coordinate the decorating of the Cupid Homeworld. Celebration made a few additional, “more extravagant” suggestions which were overruled by the Cupid Parliament, much to his annoyance; these notably included “creating a new line of sapient Cupids with the sole objective of staffing a walk-through haunted house”. (PROSE: The Ghosts and the Machine)

In December 2019, with the Cupid Parliament having forbidden him from organising Christmas festivities (PROSE: The Frost King's Treasure) due to the threat represented by Santa Claus, (PROSE: Father Christmas) he instead organised a non-denominational “Festival of Giving” slated to cover the whole month of December. His preparations included setting up a giant Advent Calendar on the Mainland Cloud. (PROSE: The Frost King's Treasure)

During his preparations, he unexpectedly burst into the Department of Baked Goods' building and requested a batch of “holiday cookies”, explaining that they could be made of the same stuff as ordinary cookies but cut into specific shapes such as “trees, stars, deer, gingerbread men, that sort of thing”. With no frame of reference, Baker delivered realistic depictions of each shape, such as willow trees — his favourite — for the “trees” instead of Christmas trees, realistic deer and moose for “deer, (…) that sort of thing” instead of stylised flying reindeer, a realistic human silhouette for the “gingerbread man”, and a perfect circle to represent the true spherical appearance of stars, instead of a stylised pointy one. When Celebration began to criticise his choices, Baker protested that he's done his best based on what he'd been asked for, and instead of requesting a new batch, Celebration ended up accepting the cookies as they were. (PROSE: Baker-954 and the Holiday Cookies) Later, Bibliophile-962 got some Christmas decorations from Celebration himself to help organise his own lower-scale Christmas party in the Department of Documentation's break room. (PROSE: Larrikin and the Christmas Pudding)

Finally, Celebration-665 gathered up a group of “volunteers” to sing Christmas carols, none of whom seemed very enthusiastic. Just as the group is about to disperse despite Celebration's best efforts, a strangely Christmas-tree-like demon known as Lord Nachtos materialised in the Homeworld, scaring even Lord Thymon, who locked himself inside the Department of Postal Services' building at the mere sight of him. Celebration's boundless enthusiasm saved the day, however, when he timidly asked if the demon would be up for some Christmas caroling; unsurprisingly given the theming of everything from his dark chants to his strangely ribbon-like arms, Nachtos was just as enthusiastic, and after an exhausting roster of song, left the Homeworld peacefully, declaring it a “wonderful dimension” which he'd be loath to destroy. Celebration then suggest that everyone go for a “refreshing bowl of punch”, to general approval. (PROSE: The Copper-Colored Cupids go Caroling)

Celebration was one of the Cupids who submitted a question to The Cupid Courier's educational Q&A about the Rifts with Doctor Sigma. However, like most Cupids in the Q&A, he simply used the opportunity to rave about his own personal hang-ups. In his case, he used the venue to argue that since the Rifts constituted an ever-present threat to the whole of the Multiverse, there were no fair grounds for him to be denied the use of a comparatively harmless firework-launcher. Sigma still managed to find the germ of an interesting question in the submission, however, focusing on the implication in Celebration's letter of the possibility of the Rifts returning.

In December 2020, Celebration-665 had set up a “particularly enthusiastic” caroling group, which attracted the attention of many Cuids in the Homeworld. (PROSE: The Time of the Toymaker)

A year later, Celebration intervened with the Department of Discipline on behalf of Conspiracy-1263, requesting that he not be punished for actions which, while reckless, had stemmed from genuine holiday spirit. (PROSE: The Case Against Conspiracy) Celebration led a caroling group, who performed for Lord Nachtos at the interdimensional Christmas party organised in the Homeworld by CS-NA.
