Muffin Heeler

* Adult
* Kid

Muffin Heeler is a tertiary character in the fanmade spinoff series, ***And Bluey!***. She's the daughter of Stripe and Trixie, the sister of Ribbon and Socks, and the wife of Judo.

## **Appearance**

Muffin looks like a spitting image of her mum, which would confuse Stripe all the time as Muffin got older. The amount of times Muffin was called "Trixie" and vice versa is too many to count.

Unlike her mother, however, Muffin has a little mohawk like her grandpa, a stripe on her belly like her father, and a wavy tail. She also has a chip in her ear, which she got while fishing with her family.

## **Personality**

Muffin is fiery, short-tempered, and a loud-mouth. Most of the time, she says things without thinking, which has unintentionally torn rifts in relationships with certain people in the past. Muffin can be highly opinionated and has no problem arguing with people.

Despite this, she's a kind person deep down and will go out of her way to help someone out if they're struggling. Muffin will always stick up for those less fortunate than her and isn't afraid to put a bully in their place.

## **Relationships**

### **Family**

#### Sibling(s)/Cousin(s)

##### Bluey

Muffin and Bluey are both highly argumentative and headstrong people, so of course they'd get into minor spats as adults. It's natural to get annoyed by your cousin, or anyone else for that matter.

What caused a rift in these two's relationship, however, was how they both projected onto each other and struck a nerve in one another. Muffin hates kids, always has. When she found out Bluey was pregnant, Muffin would make snide remarks and question Bluey's choices.

Bluey, on the other hand, kept questioning why Muffin didn't want babies. Muffin explains that they make her uncomfortable and the idea of raising one didn't sound fun in any way. Bluey makes snide remarks about how Muffin should be lucky she can even carry a baby, which had bothered her. Tensions began to flare, but they were still on decent terms.

It was when Bluey was having trouble getting pregnant again that everything hit the fan. Muffin remarked that Bluey already had one kid and should just be happy with her; kids sucked anyways, why stress out with another one? Bluey, who was already in a bad spot mentally (which she'd been trying to bury), snapped and the cousins had a *huge* fight.

It ended with them not speaking for nearly a full year. By that time, Bluey had decided to take a break from trying for another baby, realizing that it was severely affecting her mental health, as well as her relationships with her family. Muffin, on the other hand, had continued to try her hand at different careers, in hopes that one would stick. She eventually found work as a dance instructor, which she enjoyed. It was Muffin who decided to reach out, and the cousins met at Bluey's farmhouse to finally reconcile. It was a teary, emotional conversation, but by the end of it, they apologize and agree to stop projecting their ideas onto each other and let one another live their own lives. As of currently, it's been 7 years since their big fight and have mostly gone back to normal.

##### Leo

Leo is Judo's first cousin who is only 13 years old. He was suddenly dropped onto the couples' lap when his mother lost custody of him, as Wendy wasn't in the country at the time. It took a lot of warming up from both Muffin and Leo; neither liked one another and it took a lot for Leo to open up, and for Muffin to listen. Eventually, they find some common ground and Muffin learns of the boy's troubled past, feeling empathy for him. She then goes out of her way to do little things for him, like make him his favorite foods and play his favorite songs. It's these small gestures that eventually gain Leo's trust and they develop a pseudo-sibling relationship.
