Her parentage is the same, but her father was part monster, though he looked Mewman so Etheria wasn’t aware he was part monster until Selena was born.
Selena was raised as Moon’s lady in waiting, tending to her every need. She was raised to believe monsters were inferior beings, so she held onto that belief even as a monster herself. However, this belief would be demolished a while after meeting and spending time with Toffee and his army.
Selena met Toffee while gathering herbs for Butterfly Castle
The treaty being created by Comet was in the works, it would establish better relations between monsters and mewmans since Comet saw that it was possible with Selena’s existence
However, it ofc had hidden clauses that wouldn’t be fair/just for monsters and Comet knew this
Toffee kills Comet because of this
Selena finds out it was Toffee who killed her; outraged, she goes to find him and confront him
Toffee, unfazed, nonchalantly explains that Comet is not this perfect, pacifistic queen that she leads everyone to believe. After much back and forth and arguing, Selena’s eyes are opened. She keeps sneaking out to talk to Toffee, and eventually they form a friendship. Selena becomes a sort of confidant for Toffee, someone he can trust. Same goes for Selena with him.
She makes the decision to leave Butterfly Castle. Moon is outraged. She aims to kill Toffee but misses- for some reason. Maybe she, deep down, doesn’t want to hurt Selena by taking away someone she’s close with. Maybe she still cares. But the fact is that Toffee cannot regenerate that finger. His army dissipates and Moon leaves Selena and Toffee with a warning.
Selena is the only one who stayed by Toffee’s side and worked diligently to help him research the Butterfly family and their secrets. Magic was dangerous and they both knew it.
They end up becoming a couple some time before meeting Ludo, then canon ensues.
Selena does end up saving Toffee from Star’s magic blast in The Battle for Mewni with her own Butterfly form, so he survives.
