When the Cupid pointed out to Pessimist that his TV set was not actually plugged in, Pessimist replied that he knew full well, but didn't think it worth the effort because anything that may actually be on the air would have been just as boring to him as sitting in front of the blank screen as he was already doing.

=== Further mishaps === | |||
The [[Blue Feather]]'s assignment to watch the [[Rift]] endured, although, as it had gone dormant for a while, they only watched it when they had nothing else to do. On one such day, Pessimist, [[Larrikin-1029]] and [[Dandy-432]] were meant to watch the Rift, but Pessimist elected to lie on the ground motionless next to [[Pessimist's Fog Ship|his Fog Ship]], instead. As it should happen, it was on this day that the Rift opened again — allowing through not the prank-loving Fish, but a benign [[Old man (The Mad Cupid of the Euclidean Plane)|old man]] who was trying to find his way back to his home universe. The two Cupids were surprised to hear that he'd recently met [[Tracker-764]], a legendary Cupid who hadn't been seen in the Homeworld in years. They agreed to help him, only too happy to have a good excuse to leave their post, and the three departed aboard Pessimist's Fog Ship, intent on taking the old man to the [[Prime Universe]] and a selection of [[Prime-adjacent]] ones to attempt to narrow down his world of origin. Pessimist only resisted very weakly to this borrowing, and remained on the ground.([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Mad Cupid of the Euclidean Plane (short story)|The Mad Cupid of the Euclidean Plane]]'') | |||
