Like [[Pythagoras-858]], Juliet-178 was possessed of more practicality and common sense than the average [[Clockwork Cherub]]. Also like him, she was very curious, to the point of sometimes getting delayed in the business at hand by trying to observe ancillary details. She was more adventurous (some might say reckless) than Pythe, however, getting along well with [[Arganthone-056]]. For example, despite her dislike of [[Wellsian]]s, she relished a plan that required her and Arganthone to travel to their planet to try and steal one of their weapons. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Time of the Toymaker (novel)|The Time of the Toymaker]]'') [[Recorder Cupid (The Case Against Conspiracy)|One Recorder Cupid]] openly wrote in an unrelated Incident Report that Juliet-178 was a prime “cause for concern” in the Homeworld, although she was surpassed by the [[Triangular Society]] in this regard.

([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Case Against Conspiracy (short story)|The Case Against Conspiracy]]'') The [[Department of Psychology]] was founded with the sole purpose of analysing her and [[Sisters of Juliet|her duplicates]]' psyche, and bluntly described her as “one cheeky Cherub”.

Even before such a meeting had happened, ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Time of the Toymaker (novel)|The Time of the Toymaker]]'') Pythe believed that she'd get along with [[Jenny Everywhere#Adventures of the Cupids|Jenny Everywhere]] if the two were to meet.

Some time later, Juliet was keen to watch a new movie screened by the [[Department of Cinematography]] even though she had a full day's worth of work at the [[Department of Problem-Solving]]. Breaking a cardinal rule of the [[Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids|Crew]], she created a duplicate of herself to do the work for her while she snuck off to watch the movie. The duplicate, however, being too accurate a copy, had the same idea, in a chain of recursion which only ended after the creation of 1079 [[Sisters of Juliet|Juliet duplicates]] in total. | Some time later, Juliet was keen to watch a new movie screened by the [[Department of Cinematography]] even though she had a full day's worth of work at the [[Department of Problem-Solving]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Of Romeos and Juliets (short story)|Of Romeos and Juliets]]'') This was part of a “date” with [[Romeo-1020]] of the [[Department of Departments]], one piece in a wider prank played by the two Cupids on the rest of the Homeworld to make them believe that they were somehow the exceptions to the Clockwork Cherubs' species-wide asexuality.

[[File:Juliet the 945th.png|thumb|left|One of the [[Sisters of Juliet]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Labors of Juliet (short story)|The Labors of Juliet]]'')]]Unable to keep this secret, Juliet was punished by the [[Department of Discipline]] in the form of a titanic assignment: she was exiled from the Homeworld to an inhospitable [[Universe (The Labors of Juliet)|Prime-adjacent universe]] and tasked with romanticising a great number of living things before she would be allowed back. Juliet got around this by blocking off some of her duplicates' memories to make each of them believe she was the original Juliet and splitting the assignment between them, giving each Juliet only a hundred targets to romanticise. Once they were done, all the Juliets returned to the Homeworld, and Juliet sent out a wave of [[positronic radiation]] to restore their memories. However, she was surprised to find that half of the duplicates had taken apart their [[Fog Ship]]s to create further duplicates to split the workload further. She mulled that she would have to ask [[Peter-707]] of the [[Department of Vehicles]] for a big favour in order to cover up the missing Fog Ship components.

Subsequently, the “Sisters of Juliet” began causing mayhem in the Homeworld, most notably when they all tried to continue their charade with Romeo, stretching the poor lad's patience thin as they each insisted on watching the same movie with him, one after the other. Eventually, the [[Cupid Parliament]] exiled the Sisters to [[Dimension 1579]] to cool off, though they allowed the original Juliet to remain in the Homeworld due to her invaluable position at the Department of Problem-Solving.
