Juliet-178
Juliet-178 was a member of the Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids and as part of its Department of Problem-Solving was the trusted second of Prefect Pythagoras-858.
In December 2020, a few days before Christmas, Juliet and Pythagoras were both away from the Cupid Homeworld "on official business". This meant it fell to Carter-1277 to examine a mysterious gift in shimmering wrapping which, once he had opened it, turned out to contain Auteur's Abecedarium.

Two years later, Juliet was one of those affected when Auteur brought life to all of the fiction contained within the Cupid Archives, briefly merging with Robin Hood to become Juliet Robin-Hood and giving to the poor. Later, Juliet also merged with Little Red Riding Hood and knocked on her grandmother's door. Inside, she was greeted by the wolfhound, the result of the Hound merging with Big Bad Wolf, and she proceeded to nock all her arrows and hit every mark. Herodotus-724 eventually leveraged Auteur's spell to mark the Abecedarium which had once more summoned him to the Homeworld with his "REJECTED from collection" stamp which, in the present state of affairs where everything in the Archives became true, expelled Auteur from the Homeworld and returned everyone to normal.

Behind the scenes[[edit] | [edit source]]
Juliet-178 is a recurring character in The Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids, the series with which Auteur's Abecedarium [+]Loading...["Auteur's Abecedarium (short story)"] and Auteur and the Homeworld [+]Loading...["Auteur and the Homeworld (poem)"] were crossovers.
The introduction of Auteur's Abecedarium explained that it was an "interlude" to The Time of the Toymaker, the serialised story forming the bulk of 2020's Copper-Colored Cupids Calendar, being published between the eleventh and twelfth chapters. The reference to Juliet and Pythagoras's absence from the Homeworld confirmed both stories were also taking place simultaneously from an in-universe perspective.
