The Crew's normal procedure, after detecting a new universe through the [[Celestial Telescope]]s, was to send out the Scarlet Wings to scout it out. After they confirmed it was safe for romanticisation, normal patrols would start to be dispatched.

It had multiple “head operatives”, although there was a singular main leader — by 2019, [[Amity-965]].

There, they discovered the Drove's true nature, and confirmed that Discovery had been captured, when they were captured and brought before [[Eris Hatenell|Eris]]. After the Discordias threatened to have them all melted down, Amity sent a distress signal to the [[Cupid Parliament]] using his [[two-way communicator]], and they were rescued by a battalion of [[Fog Ship]]s led by [[Amadeo-378]]. The Drove, in turn, realised the Crew's nature as their equals and opposites, and elected not to fight them. Upon returning to the [[Cupid Homeworld]], the Cupids immediately reported to the [[Department of Documentation]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Drove of the Demesmaekerite-Dyed Discordias (short story)|The Drove of the Demesmaekerite-Dyed Discordias]]'') The Cupid Parliament subsequently ordered the Scarlet Wings to be on high alert for any attack from the Discordias, but forbade the Wings from initiating hostile action against them. This fact was recorded in the [[Book of Evil]] as still being current Parliamentary policy when it was written in early 2019.

After the Cupids had had a few encounters with the [[Trio of the Talking Turkeys]] following their first meeting in 2013, the Scarlet Wings were tasked with investigating the Trio's origins and agenda, and successfully uncovered the circumstances of their creation by [[Professor Scarper]] in 1959.

When the [[Copper-Colored Council of Elders]] put the [[Cupid Suggestion Box]] in place, [[Acquaintanceship-982]] used it to leave a note suggesting that the [[Blue Feather]] be upgraded to replace the Scarlet Wings as the Crew's primary topics. When the Council rejected the proposal, pointing out the Blue Feather's less-than-impressive track record, Acquaintanceship tried to prop up its reputation by leaving an “anonymous” note praising the group, but the Council immediately saw through the charade and banned Acquaintanceship from using the Suggestion Box again.
