The [[Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids]] learned of Christmas in 1986 via their [[Celestial Telescope]]s, understanding it to be considered “a time of love and sharing” by Earthlings. As such, they assumed it would be a favourable time to ply [[Love Potion|their trade]] unnoticed, what with people already being in the right frame of mind. The same year, however, the [[Gang of the Green Gorilla]] attempted to advance their agenda by highjacking the supermarket of the ordinary town of [[Vanityville]] and forcing holiday shoppers to buy nothing but green-gorilla merchandise. The encounter between these Gorillas and a group of Cupids led by [[Amadeo-378]] let to the “[[Skirmish at the Vanityville Supermarket]]”.

In December 2019, mischievous Cupid [[Larrikin-1029]] travelled to the [[Euclidean Plane]] to bring the [[Geometron]]s his very own brand of Christmas cheer, and ended up piling up three [[Spheroid]]s to create a “snow”man, as well as wrapping up a [[Tangular]] like a present and placing a [[Stelloid]] atop a tree.

([[COMIC]]: ''[[Geometrons' Holiday (comic story)|Geometrons' Holiday]]'') In the [[Cupid Homeworld]] itself, the Cupids refused to celebrate Christmas themselves, for fear of causing a version of [[Santa Claus]] to come into existence in the [[Cupid Homeworld]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Father Christmas (short story)|Father Christmas]]'', ''[[The Time of the Toymaker (novel)|The Time of the Toymaker]]'') To get around this, [[Celebration-665]] instead organised a non-denominational “[[Festival of Giving]]” slated to cover the whole month of December 2019. His preparations included setting up a giant Advent Calendar on the [[Mainland Cloud]]. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Frost King's Treasure (novel)|The Frost King's Treasure]]'') | ||
However, in 2020, the Cupids were persuaded by some of the non-[[Clockwork Cherub]] inhabitants of the Homeworld, such as [[Lord Thymon]] and [[Sneernobiel]], to alter this rule. It was ultimately agreed that the Crew would order toys directly from [[Madame Tarsa|the Interdimensional Toymaker]] without going through Santa Claus.
