One of my favorite fandom pastimes....making shipping/headcanon charts!! 😋✌️Here's an empty template I put together with a legend borrowed from @p0ply / @p0plyy. If you enjoy Cuphead, check out their shipping chart here!
Thanks to @/btd6nicka46 for requesting spinoff characters be added to the circle. :J I used p0plyy's legend because it makes the most sense to me. I don't usually include dislikes in my shipping charts (unless I feel strongly about it) but I like having the option. I added a palette in the top left corner and shifted some of colors for better readability.
For sexuality headcanons, I made an updated BTD 6 hero tier list that includes Silas and a couple others.
A tier list of all BTD 6 heroes, all the way up to Silas. Includes Amelia and Zee Jay from Bloons Card Storm and Agent Jericho from Bloons T
I know (and like when) people ship the towers together, but I wanted to focus on the heroes....I'm sorry! If you scroll down under any tier list template there's an option to add your own images onto the chart.
I'd really like to see your completed charts if you do them - I hope you enjoy! :D Here's my completed charts w/ a cheat sheet under Keep Reading.
I'd like to preface this cheat sheet by saying: Cringe is dead, consistency is dead, multi-shipping is epic, fuck it we ball. 🙂↕️
[ QUINCY ] Pansexual. Had a crush on Gwen, gave it up after rejection (NOTP). Friends with Obyn, Gwen, and Ezili, best friends with Benjamin. Older cousin (and friend) to Rosalia.
[ GWENDOLYN ] Lesbian. Shipped with Adora. Friends with Adora, Quincy, Ezili, and Striker Jones.
[ STRIKER JONES ] Straight. Head over heels in love with Brickell. Friends with Gwen, Zoey, Rosalia. Trying extremely hard to befriend Churchill (but to no avail).
[ OBYN GREENFOOT ] Gay. Crushing on Rosalia. Friends with Rosalia and Quincy.
[ CAPTAIN CHURCHILL ] Gay. Generally shipped with Etienne. Good friends with Brickell and Ezili. Not receptive to Striker's advances.
[ BENJAMIN ] Bisexual. Romantically involved with Sauda, victim of one-sided crush on Quincy. Best friends with Sauda and Quincy. Desperately trying to befriend Geraldo and gain his approval (for some reason).
[ EZILI ] Bisexual, male lean. Sometimes shipped with Adora, sometimes they're rivals? Friends with Adora, Brickell, Quincy, and Etienne (kind of). Crushing on Quincy.
[ PAT FUTSY ] Straight. Crushing on Rosalia. Friends with Sauda.
[ ADORA ] Lesbian. Shipped with Gwen and sometimes Ezili. Friends with Gwen, Psi, and Ezili.
[ ADMIRAL BRICKELL ] Bisexual. In a committed relationship with Striker Jones. Great friends with Churchill (a sort of mentor/mentee relationship) and Ezili.
[ ETIENNE ] Pansexual, prefers masc-presenting peeps. Generally shipped with Churchill, has one-sided crushes on Geraldo and Quincy. Friends with Rosalia and Ezili.
[ SAUDA ] Bisexual. Romantically involved with Benjamin. Friends with Benjamin, Geraldo, Pat Futsy, and Rosalia. Sometimes shipped with Rosalia.
[ PSI ] Straight. Friends with Adora. I wanted to give him a crush on someone but honestly? I think it'd probably be on a tower or citizen.
[ GERALDO ] Gay? Friends with Rosalia and Sauda. (Acts) unbothered by Etienne's advances, rejects Benjamin's attempts at friendship.
[ ROSALIA ] Bisexual. Looks cute next to Sauda and Obyn! Friends with Sauda, Geraldo, Etienne, Striker Jones, Obyn, and her cousin Quincy.
Extra stuff lol:
I have like 0 ideas for Silas and the necromancer dude. I know people ship them but it honestly doesn't do much for me. 😅
Agent Jericho is either a gay man or a he/him butch lesbian (possibly bisexual). The latter set of options makes me happier, so I'm leaning towards that. :J
"Why do multiple monkeys have a crush on Quincy?" Because I have a crush on Quincy and I love projecting it onto others lol.
"Why doesn't the shipping chart match your sexuality headcanons?" Please re-read the cheat sheet preface. I love complicated feelings and treating characters like dolls!
"Generally shipped" = I was exposed to the pairing by others and thought it was neat! Probably wouldn't consider myself a die-hard fan though.
