Tried my hand at making relationship charts for the entire main seven cast between themselves! There's some things we already knew, but also a very large host of new information! I hope you like them!

[yakketymax]

If you had assign sins to the main seven (one sin for one of the seven!) who would be with what?

Uuuuuuhh... Here's my verdicts including the brain storming from discord with my friend @allseeingportrait

Funnel would be Lust.

Poppy would be Greed.

Pirouline would be Pride.

Song Bird would be Wrath.

Fireball would be Sloth.

Dog Biscuit would be Envy.

Roasted would be Gluttony.

Fireball and Roasted, we never hear about them

We never hear about these two because they rarely interact in canon asdfghjkl even with Fireball being his father-in-law later on

One thing I will never let go of, however, is Roasted being enchanted with the vigilante "Detective Fireball" and doing everything short of passing out point blank in front of the man whenever they meet. Their first interaction was Fireball showing up at the circus and Roasted not sticking around long enough to hear the reason why, getting overwhelmed by embarrassment and taking off running after he flubbed a greeting like four times and getting insult added to injury when steam blew from his shirt collar about it. He can't even blame it on his speech impediment. That was all him right there. Oh my god.

Fireball finds Roasted to be awkwardly endearing- a fun contrast to the character Roasted plays at the circus -and takes amusement in his inability to keep his shit together whenever they interact. Even so, he isn't malicious and doesn't belittle him and will fill in the gaps for whatever Roasted is fighting demons trying to stutter through and takes everything with a very lighthearted grace. The kid is a fan! What's he gonna do about that, tell him off? That's no fun!

They have fun together! ...When Roasted can manage to say hello :]

Roasted and Song Bird?

These two have the exact same story of The Soldier (Roasted, for those unaware) hunting down Song Bird as his first mission and his moral compass against this being so strong that he short-circuited himself and Song Bird escaped being dragged to the Witch's Kitchen to be used for parts and ingredients. The only change that occurred in their story and relationship is that when they meet again and make up and Song Bird lets it all go because of the circumstances, she still gripped Roasteds shoulder really really hard and smiled at him with a little laugh before letting him go. Like this was the kind of clutch that had Roasteds knees buckling as his voice was cracking in pain until they released him.

Roasted is cool with Song Bird and Song Bird shows no malice or ill-will towards him, but Roasted is also like really fucking scared of him, just like everyone is and should be!

What did Poppy do to Roasted that needs forgiving??

Poppy got Roasted arrested.

You see, all Poppy wanted was to hang out with someone he thought was cool and hadn't talked to much, but the thing about hanging out with Poppy is that Poppy is a fucking menace to society. For some people, this is great! It's fun, it's thrilling! There are plenty of people that love breaking windows and causing issues for the local population. Roasted is not one of those people but Poppy was so insistent that it would be fun that Roasted eventually started to believe him and tagged along, with some part of him also thinking that maybe making genuine friends with Poppy would help with the issues between him and Funnel. They set off for their night of crimes and various debaucheries and just when Roasted starts having a bit of fun with all this, lights are on them and they're both being put in handcuffs. Poppy plays this off lightheartedly as they get booked, but Roasted isn't having as much of a laugh as he is.

No, Roasted is crying in the back of the squad car. The man is crying and brokenly whispering about how upset Funnel is going to be with him. He looks absolutely miserable and Poppy doesn't really know what to do with that. He's never been around someone who doesn't love this stuff.

...Fuck. God, he fucked up.

Roasted doesn't say another word to him no matter how much he tries to get him to and the next time he hears Roasted voice is when Roasted is using his phone call to contact Funnel to come pick him up tomorrow. The only thing funny about this entire ordeal is the way the entire department flinches when Funnel lets out an absolutely ear-splitting "WHAT?!" over the line when Roasted explains what happened.

Prior to that night, Poppy and Roasted hadn't interacted much outside of work and, after that night, they hardly interacted during work, with both Roasted starting to avoid Poppy and Funnel deliberately working to keep the two of them off the same shift unless necessary. Roasted kiiiiind of forgives Poppy? But the sincerity of that is debatable. Roasted isn't very argumentative in most situations where he's uncomfortable, while Poppy pushes what he wants onto others because he thinks he always knows what'll work and what won't.

Poppy wants to be forgiven.

Roasted doesn't argue. ...Verbally.

Am I allowed to ask B for the whole gingerfolk crew??? I’m curious 👀

"B) What inspired you to create them?" for The Main Seven

Funnel: I wanted to participate in the fun cookie guy thing everybody was doing and I thought a ringleader cookie (OGs will remember that this was their original name) would be fun. It spiraled out of control and now Funnel is my favorite character I've ever made in my life.

Poppy: I needed a character for Funnel to talk to and I thought of the word "poppy" for some reason. Everybody else was doing poppy flowers, so I wanted to do poppy seeds instead.

Song Bird: I can't remember what exactly INSPIRED me to make Song Bird (besides the obvious Rio movie influences), but I do remember that he was originally supposed to be a villain. I changed that, of course, but I've let it leak back in just a lil' bit.

Pirouline: Again, a character I created on the spot because I was asked to. She grew into who she is because of my love for electro swing and pretty women from the 50s.

Fireball: Real ones will remember that he was supposed to be an adoptable. The concept of a "detective fireball" hit me like a truck and I HAD to jump on it, but I was going to sell the idea for $20. Very happy I didn't.

Dog Biscuit: I can not remember what exactly inspired me to make her, I think it might have been Lady and The Tramp 2? I think I just wanted a scrappy "dog biscuit" cookie character, I might have been looking at a box of milkbones asdfghjkl

Roasted: I fucking love nutcrackers and I WANTED ONE so I MADE ONE and then it all got SCARY FROM THERE
