+A “few years” prior to 2019, during a routine [[Love Potion|romanticisation]] mission on the [[Prime Universe|Prime]] [[Earth]], [[Discovery-664]] coincidentally encountered members of the [[Drove of the Demesmaekerite-Discordias]], villainous counterparts of the [[Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids]] from another universe, who captured him and took him to their [[Discordia Homeland|Homeland]] in the [[Discordia Dimension]]. [[Scarlet Wings]] investigators led by [[Amity-965]] stumbled upon the empty [[Smog Ship]] of one of the Discordias, [[D123-Blackheart]], and flew it to the Discordia Dimension, stranding Blackheart. There, they discovered the Drove's true nature, being brought before their Creator and leader [[Eris Hatenell|Eris]]. After the Discordias threatened to have them all melted down, Amity sent a distress signal to the [[Cupid Parliament]] using his [[two-way communicator]], and they were rescued by a battalion of [[Fog Ship]]s led by [[Amadeo-378]]. The Drove, in turn, realised the Crew's nature as their equals and opposites, and elected not to fight them. Upon returning to the [[Cupid Homeworld]], the Cupids immediately reported to the [[Department of Documentation]]. In subsequent years, the Cupids had a few more chance encounters with the Discordias, learning that their [[Hate Potion]] and the Cupids' [[Love Potion]] could cancel each other out completely in either direction.

([[VIDEO]]: ''[[The Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids (video story)|The Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids]]'')]]At some point, a group of Cupids attempted to film an infomercial about the Crew's operations, filming the live romanticisation of two [[Geometron]]s, named [[Quadratus Rectangle|Mr Rectangle]] and [[Diskie Bubble|Ms Bubble]]. The result was less glossy than expected due to the Cupids on duty overdosing the [[Love Potion]], causing both Geometrons to devolve into cooing, non-verbal simpletons. ([[VIDEO]]: ''[[The Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids (video story)|The Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids]]'') Nevertheless, they put out a bulletin claiming the mission had been a great success.

-Growing weary of having to sneak past the [[Mechanical Sphinx]] to access their own [[Cupid Archives|Archives]], the Cupids eventually launched a project to digitize their files, starting with the most often-used [[Cupid Fact File]]s. The first was #94, concerning the [[Euclidean Plane]]. Around the same time, the Crew was trying, unsuccessfully, to covertly [[Love Potion|romanticize]] the [[Chief of the Euclidean Flying Squad|Chief]] of the [[Euclidean Flying Squad]] in the hope of getting him to stop the Flying Squad from opposing the Crew's operations in the Euclidean Plane.

 After multiple [[Fog Ship]]s traversing [[the Void]] were attacked by [[Lord Thymon]], it was decided to try and do something to subdue or destroy the entity. The [[Department of Impossible Things]] did not feel up to the task, and it was transferred to [[Pythagoras-858]]'s [[Department of Problem-Solving]]. They successfully summoned Thymon and bound him in place, and [[Juliet-178]], with remarkable audacity, shot a [[Cupid Arrow]] at his heart, successfully romanticising him and making him undyingly loyal to the Crew.
