===Creating the Sisters of Juliet===
===Creating the Sisters of Juliet===
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. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Of Romeos and Juliets (short story)|Of Romeos and Juliets]]'') 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.

[[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.
