[[File:Pythagoras-858 in Lord Thymon and the Department of Problem-Solving.png|thumb|left|Pythe sits in his office, pondering how to deal with [[Lord Thymon]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Lord Thymon and the Department of Problem-Solving (short story)|Lord Thymon and the Department of Problem-Solvig]]'')]]In 2019, the [[Department of Impossible Things]] shuffled off the assignment of dealing with [[Lord Thymon]] to the [[Department of Problem-Solving]]. Pythe left his Problem-Solvers — including [[Carter-1277]], [[Edwin-750]], [[Juliet-178]] and [[Valerius-1497]] — to develop solutions. When he returned to [[Lab 5]], they had filled it with clocks, with the intent to summon Thymon, only for him to be frozen due to the short supply of time energy that would result. Deeming the idea mad enough to have some chances of working on a conceptual entity like Thymon, Pythe allowed them to go forwards, threatening to detonate a [[Reality Bomb]] to lure Thymon to the [[Cupid Homeworld]]. After he was indeed summoned, Juliet ended up taking it upon herself to simply hit him with a [[Cupid Arrow]], [[Love Potion|romanticising]] him.

Some time later, however, Juliet tried to wriggle out of a day's work at the Department of Problem-Solving. Her convoluted scheme to get out from under her responsibilities ended up crating over 1500 [[Sisters of Juliet|duplicates of herself]], who then spread out across [[the Multiverse]] to collectively carry out the punitive assignment given to Juliet by the [[Department of Discipline]]. The duplicates all had the original Juliet's memories, and one of them, [[Juliet the 945th]], once told herself to “think like Pythe” while looking for a loophole to get out of a tight situation.
