Headcanons Dump
The liquid in the boys heads can be emptied out and changed to whatever they want. Mugman prefers sweet drinks like iced tea or fizzy drinks while Cuphead prefers coffee
and vodkaWhile Cuphead seems to have a bit of an ego for himself, he’s actually got low self-esteem and is trying to “fake it til ya make it” with his confidence.
Cuphead is a huge crybaby
Mugman has the best green thumb in all of the Inkwell Isles. The boy can make anything grow.
Cuphead likes to cook but he’s terrible at it. However, whenever he cooks at home, you can bet your butt that Mugman and Elder Kettle will eat it just to see Cup’s proud face, even if it kills them.
Only Mugman can call Cuphead “Cuppy”. He’s not embarrassed about it or anything. It’s just something only his brother can do.
Cuphead is the best hype man.
The two are inseparable, however if they are away from each other for more than a day, they suffer from major separation anxiety. They can’t eat or sleep and sometimes won’t even talk until they are back together.
Since this is so popular, I think I’ll add a few more:
After Beppi’s fight, the two are terrified of roller coasters.
There is blood in the two of them. If their heads got cracked, they would bleed the same as if as person got a cut.
Depending on the size, if a piece of them broke of, it wouldn’t kill them as long as they got it patched up quickly. Tape and glue work better than any bandages.
Their straws are only decorative. They can swap them with other straws as they please.
Cuphead is afraid of the dark but won’t admit it.
Mugman is afraid of storms
As far as the two are concerned, Elder Kettle is not just their grandad but also their parent. Sometimes they will refer to him as dad. They don’t believe they have any other parents or relatives. It’s just the three of them and they’re happy to keep it that way.
The two like to hang out with certain bosses after the events of the game. Rides on Grim’s back, gardening with Cagney, baking with Von Bon Bon and swimming with Cala Maria are among their favourite things to do
