Shortly after their first encounters with the Gang of the Green Gorilla, the Crew received letters from the [[Society of the Rhyming Dove]], another [[Strangely-Colored Secret Society]] who wished to make contact with all the Societies it could. Fearing a trap from the Gorillas or some other ill-intentioned group, the Crew sent the Scarlet Wings to meet the mystery-writers, but the Rhyming Doves turned out to indeed be friendly. An alliance between the two groups was established.

The [[Great Arrow Crisis]] was an event midway in the Crew's history caused by the sudden rise in the price of the wood the Cupids used to fashion their [[Cupid Arrow]]s. [[Scarlet Wings]] investigators quickly determined that it was the fault of the [[Mélange of the Mauve Muskrat]], a [[Strangely-Colored Secret Society]] they had not previously encountered, who had, under the guise of “[[MuskCo]]”, been accumulating business resources in order to further their quest for [[Atlantis#In the Prime Universe|Atlantis]]. They had also purchased other factories which sold the chemicals the [[Gang of the Green Gorilla]] used to power their brainwashing ray. | |||
After the Crew's supply of Arrows ran out, a group of [[Scarlet Wings]] operatives travelled to Earth to investigate, but had to flee the Muskrats' headquarters when they realised they were dealing with another Strangely-Colored Secret Society. Back in the Homeworld, the Scarlet Wings reported to the [[Cupid Parliament]] who ultimately ordered them to attack the Muskrats straight-on. When the Cupids returned to the Muskrats' HQ, they found it already under attack by the [[Gang of the Green Gorilla|Green Gorillas]], and stayed out of the fight until the stronger and more numerous Gorillas had won the fight, getting the Muskrats to sign ownership of the chemical plants over to them. The Scarlet Wings then romanticised a few of the Gorillas by lobbing bottles of [[Love Potion]] at them, and got the Gorillas to further intimidate the Muskrats into signing the lumber mill over to the Cupids. | |||
Subsequently, though they made no further attempts to directly gum up the Cupids' operations, they took every chance to inconvenience them. The Muskrats, and the Crisis, were documented by the Cupids in their [[Cupid Archives|archives]] as [[Cupid Fact File]] #192.
