Best thing Cinnamon's good at is being a loving dad in any au. He's like his brother in that way.

I need to finish the other ref now for Meggan but I also just want to draw Cinnamon loving her.

[the-crazy-echidna-lady]

Finally finished her ref. So officially meet Meggan Java, Cuphead's younger cousin, but Mugman's older cousin. Joe and Tea don't really meet her until they come back- bc of Cinnamon's disappearance lol. They may not be fond of Cinnamon, but they love their niece very much. To explain some stuff about her physical features: She has her grandpa's handle and eyes, and grandma's freckles. The orangy colors are from Cinnamon's side, also possibly darkened from Brandie. She gets to have Cinnamon's- cinnamon lol. She's spiked eggnog, which is what I tried to portray to the side. I wanted to give her a cinnamonstick, but felt like too much, plus too similar to Cinnamon himself. Like her mlp counterpart she's taller than Cuphead despite being younger because of Mug genes lol (Mug people are typically either built like tanks or they're tall as hell. She got the tall part.)

posted this to my secret blog but it's cute enough so Meggan loves to play up her cuteness with her dads. Believe it or not Cinnamon's more susceptible to her control lmao

Cinnamon finally has a new ref. Ft Scarlet on his fucking head Before I forget, he's 6'8 Adding his description here

Cinnamon is Joe's older brother, who harassed him for a good portion of their childhoods before he (Cinnamon) ran away at 17 to Isle 4. He slowly starts to explore his gender as a trans man in the city, though some not so great things happen to him, unrelated to being trans. (I'll put under a cut at the very bottom.)

He can be a grumpy jerk, but like anyone else, he has feelings and guilt is one of them. He definitely regrets what he did to Joe during their youth, but he feels like he can’t just go back and apologize. For all he knows, Joe has a family now and life is going good, and hopefully he forgot about him. He doesn’t want to jack things up more. Though, he does eventually go to find his mom, and ends up meeting his nephews, learning Joe and Tea had to leave for the kids safety. He immediately takes it upon himself to be one of their male figures in life. When Joe and Tea return, he gives them time to settle, knowing neither one of them probably wanted to see him. When he goes to apologize to Joe, it goes better than expected, even if it's visibly and audibly obvious that Joe's not so pleased to see him. Joe becomes more provoked when Cinnamon joins for monthly family dinner at their mother's house, seeing that the boys are rather clingy to him. Joe can't even be mad because Cinnamon's good with them, plus he doesn't want to make a scene in front of his own kids and niece his first month back. He's secretly grateful Cinnamon was there for Cuphead and Mugman, but at the same time is jealous about their attachment towards him. Speaking of Joe's niece, this kinda discusses that Cinnamon has a little cardinal who sometimes comes inside his cabin and nests there. His name is Scarlet because he originally thought he was a female because of the lack of red and he meant it sarcastically, and now it’d be weird to rename him. Also has a moose who hangs around that he calls Bellow. Under the cut for more triggering things that are important parts of his story, but deserve a blaring warning. (tw SA)

Shortly after running off the day after his 17th birthday because of feeling like a burden to his family, Cinnamon had been working for a small bar, and his boss had taken a liking for him to say the least. Still young and naive and growing up somewhat sheltered, he assumed it was a good thing. First time anybody had been nice to him in the city, so he figured he was doing his job well or something. He thought his theory about doing his job well was about to be proven when his boss told him about wanting to give him a raise. Though, his boss also told him to come to his apartment afterwork to discuss it with him. Confused, but not wanting to fuck it up, Cinnamon agreed.

Cinnamon got nervous when his boss locked the apartment door, but assumed because it was night, obviously he wouldn't want it unlocked so intruders couldn't get inside. But it also meant Cinnamon couldn't escape when he needed to. He became more uncomfortable the closer his boss got to him, continuing to say things about how good he was doing and that he wished that he had met him sooner. Cinnamon started trying to put space between them when he saw him reaching into his pockets for something, and that's when his boss grabbed him. Cinnamon bit, kicked, clawed, whatever he could, but when he found his voice to scream, his boss him in the face with the knife he had been pulling out, and told him to be quiet and make it easier for both of them, holding the blade near Cinnamon's throat. So, he shut up, trembling, but he shut his mouth. And that caused the existence of his son, who the hospital coincidentally named Spice, the name of Cinnamon's father. He didn't get to hold him, or see him, or name him himself since there was no 'man' in the family and they didn't want him getting attached. He was left pleading for hours until they eventually kicked him out. He kicked himself for even trusting the hospital, but also told himself he would've been a terrible parent anyways. And he would also expand that to not being a worthy or good enough partner. He would go on to have sexual flicks with people as a small sidejob, who he couldn't understand why they wanted him that bad anyways, especially after transitioning, but he'd get paid so he didn't care, even if it made him uncomfortable and sometimes scared. Though, eventually, he met someone at the bar (not the same one his old boss was from) who was happy just talking with him, which was Brandie. It confused Cinnamon, and even incited a fear deep inside of him from previous events. He figured people were only nice if they wanted something, that's how it had been in his experience the past few years. But Brandie just talked his head off about random things- partially from being drunk and just flapping his lips, but because he also wanted to know Cinnamon, since he was just sitting alone before he came to talk to him. Better explained here So things lead to another, and they end up having an unofficial wedding just between the two of them, very quietly. Cinnamon settles into his job as a conservationist and as a way to have closure, he decides the last time he would have sex, would be so he and Brandie could have their daughter, Meggan, so that she's a good thing coming from a fear. Cinnamon eventually meets his son, and after breaking down a bit, tells him that if he needs somewhere safe to stay, he's always welcome.

Why does Meggan have blue eyes like Joe if she's Cinnamon's kid

Because Joe and Cinnamon's dad had blue eyes. (Cinnamon get's his brown eyes from their mom.) Geneticccs
