There are a lot of cupids. Checking my notes, there are 432 total cupids on the planet and 431 of them are at the diner attacking our protagonists.

I'm back, and I'm better than ever! . . . Okay, maybe not so much better than ever.
Now let me see if I have everything down. People don't realize the holidays' personifications are real, because to reveal such would lead to the annihilation of everything and everybody. Standing in the way of revealing the holidays is the World Tree, better known in some circles as Yggdrasil. The Bunny isn't so much the Big Bad out of pure malevolence as the very real possibility of being forgotten, a holiday's fate worse than death. There's a traitor in Haven, and to make matters worse, The Bunny has the big guns with fewer casualties, and Haven's heaviest hitter, the 4th of July, is already gone, the same as Santa. Valentine's Day is a girl, as well as working for The Bunny, and cupids love fries. Have I got everything?
I don't think 4th of July has been mentioned at all. He 100% hasn't been mentioned in the comic and I don't think I've hinted or mentioned him in my comments. Until now…
4th of July was killed in the early years of the war and we will learn about him in an upcoming "ToHP" story.
For the most part you got the gist of everything. I might of commented on Tegan as a character and her interactions with both Wallace and Taylor. But in terms of plot that's pretty much what we've seen so far since the end of Act I.
Well, I mention 4th of July because their name was on Black Friday's board, and the whole bit about them being one of Haven's big guns was pure speculation, given what it's about and how it's celebrated. And really, it's a shame they're gone, considering what the holiday is about and how it's celebrated.
That's why he had to die before the story began. If he were alive everyone would expect him to lead the revolt and help free everyone from The Bunny's wraith. Plus he was a big hitter. No way The Bunny would've let him live. He was too much of a threat.
and the last cupid would beeeeee?
In time.
psh well you're no fun.
So wait, cupids are somehow related to seagulls? Because I've never seen and tern on the East Coast not behave like these folks did when you throw a big pile of fries out for them to go after…

And to Tegan's enjoyment of them:

And then please consider what kind of working conditions the cupids might have to deal with if The Bunny is currently in charge of them.
