A lovely commission for my friend @dappercritter of our favorite crack ship from Star Vs. We both agree that the show would've been a lot more interesting if Toffee had been Eclipsa's husband instead of Globgor, so this was a treat to work on!
New background for my AU blog @new-moon-over-septarsis ! (I have other versions of it, but apparently Tumblr thinks I’m putting nipples in my art every time I use a yellow glow brush.) Not sure which one I’m gonna go with yet, or if I’m even satisfied, but for now I like it!
With that, I’m logging off for the night. And I won’t be back until I watch Cleaved. See you on the flip side, folks!
Disclaimer: These headcanons are heavily skewed toward my specific interpretations of young Eclipsa and especially young Toffee, along with being specific to fitting into my AU, so I don’t know how “general” these are and can be taken. These also aren’t even all of them just the ones I’ve come up with just a lot of the non-angsty and non-spoiler ones💗
These also come with childhood Toffee and Eclipsa best friend headcanons, their dynamic in their current adult stages is different lol and even more skewed toward my AU than these are (and way more spoiler-y)

Let’s get the obvious out of the way: Eclipsa gave him the nickname “Toffee.” Toffee isn’t his real name, and Eclipsa was the one who nicknamed him.
She gave him the nickname because, in the lighting, she mistook his eyes as having a more carmelized color. It was only later that she realized they were actually gold (YES this is inspired by the super cute fic and accompanying comic, sue me!)
Eclipsa loves playing with Toffee’s long hair. Whether it's brushing it, braiding it, decorating it with leaves, flowers, or ribbon, or simply just playing with it with her fingers. She always remarks about how weirdly soft it is
Going along with the last one, Eclipsa was such a bow girl. She LOVES bows and wore exclusively bows in her hair until she transitioned to hats. Argo, she loves putting bows in Toffee’s hair. He isn’t the biggest fan of it, but enjoys making her happy.
Eclipsa loves crafting and making things like flower crowns. While Toffee appreciates the gesture, flower crowns are serious reminders of his late mother, and seeing it hits the wrong way sometimes.
Contrary to popular belief, and no matter how smiley Eclipsa can be, Toffee is “the smiley”
Eclipsa loves chocolate while Toffee can’t stand it. If he eats chocolate it’s exclusively dark chocolate. Otherwise, he’s much more of a strawberry-flavored guy. Eclipsa fundamentally doesn’t understand why he doesn’t like chocolate, specifically Snookers
Eclipsa is fascinated by the Septarian’s regenerative properties.
She helped Toffee get better at regeneration faster than his peers because she kept accidentally slicing his limbs off. She always cries about it no matter how much he assures her that he’s fine
Eclipsa taught Toffee how Mewmans dance and Toffee (at least tried to) teach Eclipsa some traditional Septarian dances.
Toffee specifically requested to not be included in Eclipsa’s chapter.
However, Toffee IS the Septarian Eclipsa “dated” in her chapter. Despite the two not having romantic feelings for each other at all he agreed to the date for her research purposes. It was one date and neither took each other seriously and laughed and giggled the whole time.
Toffee eventually hooked her up with another Septarian to date instead since he had a hunch she’d be a tad biased.
(She was biased. That 9/10 was for him.)
Going along with the last one, Eclipsa illustrated what she headcanoned Toffee would look like as an adult. Toffee asked her, very confused, “Um… why did you draw me like that…?” (Little did she know how accurate she kinda was)
Toffee has tried to get Eclipsa to read some of his books (like the bookworm he is), but her short attention span pevents her from finishing the first chapter
Toffee helps Eclipsa with her magic training, holding the book open for her and helping her by reading off spells. He’s practically read the entire book up until Eclipsa’s chapter.
(Yes, this includes all of Solaria’s chapter. Yes he has read what Solaria has said about Septarians. Yes it terrifies him that someone like her exists.)
Eclipsa told Toffee all about the Butterflies, magic, the magic wand, and The Whispering Spell. Being the chatterbox she is, she couldn’t contain any secrets from her best friend. (She is the source for a good portion of Toffee’s information on the Butterfly Family and magic.)
Along these same lines, Eclipsa showed him Butterfly Castle’s secret tunnel system and other secret passageways she constantly uses.
Eclipsa and Toffee make up hypotheticals sometimes. One of those hypotheticals was about what a Mewni without magic would look like, since Eclipsa figured out magic was the source of a lot of monster’s hardships. They never really took it seriously as an option at the time
Despite all of Eclipsa’s attempts to bring them together and have them meet, Toffee and Globgor have never met
They’re the type of friends to come in a “package deal”
Eclipsa jokes about her trauma a lot to cope, Toffee does not.
Eclipsa, dramatically standing in front of Toffee: HE ASKED FOR NO PICKLES
Eclipsa tries to bake (and fails) but Toffee eats the (very burnt) sweets anyway with a smile on his face.
They make music together 🎶 Eclipsa plays the guitar and Toffee has this tambourine

If I got into the angst ones we’d be here all day.
I’ve spent the better part of the last few days compiling as many as I can think of from my memory bank. I love these two, I’ve had them headcanoned as childhood best friends since Battle for Mewni came out. These headcanons are 7 years in the making so there’s probably a few lost to time that I’ll remember as I write about them more.
Their dynamic is overall similar to Star and Marco’s (Season 1 pre-romance), just with their own little personalities. It’s not a 1:1 ratio, but it’s akin to them.
Now I wanna do the video compiling all of the evidence for a canonical connection between these two… *sighs and puts it on my to do list*
It’s almost like Toffee was allowing himself to emote so intensely because he needed access to that power. And when he didn’t need it anymore, his emotions pretty much went down to 0 again.
If Toffee has had this power inside him his whole life, that would explain why he’s so stoic and emotionless. He must’ve been trained (or trained himself) from a young age to control his emotions to keep that magic under the radar.
