In 2021, CS-NA, having noticed a pattern of the Cupids' adventures getting more dangerous year by year, feared that this year's winter misadventures would risk ruining [[Christmas]]. In thanks for all the kindness they had shown him, he resolved to “save Christmas” himself. After being gifted a personal [[Dematerialisation Engine]] by [[Doctor Sigma]], he input random coordinates and found himself at the [[Interdimensional Soda Jerkery]]. There, he found and befriended a depressed [[Alistair Neezley]], who told him that there was a Christmas party at the [[Interdimensional Tavern]] and offered to take him there. During the trip, CS-NA helped cheer up Neezley; this and the observation of how the Tavern staff seemed to care about him, despite his fears otherwise, led CS-NA to the conclusion that “Kindness” as an important element of the holiday spirit. Declining to join the party, he moved on with his quest. | In 2021, CS-NA, having noticed a pattern of the Cupids' adventures getting more dangerous year by year, feared that this year's winter misadventures would risk ruining [[Christmas]].

He ended up at the [[Workshop of Madame Tarsa]], in time not only to witness [[Madame Tarsa]] and [[Joybuzzer]] working on Christmas toys as mother and son, but also a visit from [[the Frost King#Member of the Council|the Frost King]], whom Joybuzzer called “Uncle Frost”. Mistaking CS-NA for some kind of vermin, the King briefly froze him into a block of ice, but after Tarsa freed him, the group all headed to [[Universe (The Winter Quests)|another universe]] together to find a Christmas tree. There, CS-NA interacted with snow for the first time, even ending up rolling down a slope and becoming the centre of a very large snowball until Joybuzzer halted his descent. All of these events led him to the conclusion that “Family” was another key feature of the holiday, which he interpreted to mean he should strive to get as many of the Cupids together in a single party as possible, rather than organise many small ones. | He ended up at the [[Workshop of Madame Tarsa]], in time not only to witness [[Madame Tarsa]] and [[Joybuzzer]] working on Christmas toys as mother and son, but also a visit from [[the Frost King#Member of the Council|the Frost King]], whom Joybuzzer called “Uncle Frost”.

Ending up in [[the Frost King's Realm]], CS-NA met [[Century Smith]] and [[Briar]] and helped them fight off a group of [[Mecharon]]s, coincidentally cookie-like cyborgs, who were trying to take over a village and turn its inhabitants into more Mecharons. He next landed aboard the ''[[Fish'n'Ship]]'', the [[tachyonic sailing ship]] of the [[Faction of the Fooling Fish]]. They convinced him to serve as their guinea pig on what they claimed would be Christmas-themed pranks; though he had fun engaging in Christmas-themed activities for a whole day under their supervision, CS-NA couldn't figure out how they were supposed to count as “pranks”, which, indeed, they weren't. The Faction instead wanted to ensure he would be suitable for a mission for which they needed his help: steering the ''Fish'n'Ship'' past a shield into [[Dimension Zeta-32-Orangepeel-Grbbrzkwlkglb|a long-impenetrable pocket universe]] to bring them the joys of the holiday season. After they succeeded, CS-NA, concluding that “Fun” was another fundamental element of the holiday, agreed to stay for a little while and enjoy the celebration. | Ending up in [[the Frost King's Realm]], CS-NA met [[Century Smith]] and [[Briar]] and helped them fight off a group of [[Mecharon]]s, coincidentally cookie-like cyborgs, who were trying to take over a village and turn its inhabitants into more Mecharons.
