Cookies and Gentleman! It's Showtime~!

This fact is not about Funnel themself but rather Crackerjack Circus. If you look closely at the walls and beams when Funnel is inside the main tent, you’ll notice that they bend and creak softly in a slight rhythmic pattern. You’ll see that the flaps of the tarp flutter gently with a breeze that you can’t feel.

You’ll eventually put it together that the tent itself is breathing in time with its master.

The Crackerjack Circus is alive, in a way. It breathes when Funnel breathes. It laughs when Funnel laughs. It sleeps when Funnel sleeps. It shrieks when Funnel shrieks.

And it bleeds when Funnel bleeds.

Their head, by far. Funnel loves to take their head off for pranks and shenanigans, their favorite being “let me ask my associate” where they remove their head and regard their body with the question at hand as if they were separate people. It’s not uncommon to see Funnel with their head removed for one reason or other, be it for a joke or just because they wanted to at the time.

But because of this casualness they have for taking their head off and since they’re still refining how to behave around regular Gingerfolk, Funnel will sometimes remove their head like it’s a regular thing to do at inappropriate times. Which is like… all times outside of the circus and their house. They still feel guilty for accidentally scaring their neighbors that one time…

Upon multiple occasions, I’ve described Funnels eyes as being a kind of pseudo magic wands. Without their eyes, Funnel is not entirely powerless both physically and magically, but they are handicapped by a drastic amount- so like if they were to be blinded by debris or if their eyes were to get covered in some manner. They can cast lesser illusions using the perpetual dark aura that exudes from them naturally (Witch Cookies and their inherent bad vibes) but they won’t be much and they’ll be easy to shake off.

Funnels eyes are a funhouse mirror that’s been directly connected to the brain of someone with a wild and loud imagination, which is why it requires more focus from them to make something “normal,” like a reflection of another person or a reflection of a real place. You look into the mirror and you see whatever they want you to see reflected back at you, warped far beyond what’s comfortable in reality.

Hello, thank you for this question! From the day I started the blog at age 16 to this day at age 21, Funnel never has and never will have genitals of any kind. Funnel doesn’t need genitals. Funnel is from a null species that reproduces via mixing the recipes and ingredients of the parents and baking the child to life, sometimes even with the help of a human baker. Because of this, Funnel and every other Gingerfolk under my creation and beyond does not have and possesses absolutely no need for sex organs.

It doesn’t matter how many bondage posts I draw or how many tongue jokes I make or if I write them receiving hickeys or whatever else I decide to do, no matter how inherently sexual or suggestive it may be. Funnel doesn’t have a cock. Stop asking me about the possibility of Funnels cock. Funnel does not have a cock.

Now with that being said, the HUMAN version of Funnel, Phineas Cakemen, who is JUST as fucked up and weird as their gingerbread counterpart does have a cock! A cock that I write about frequently! If you’re of age and into that sort of thing, come ask me about it on Bluesky so we can finally leave my weird little cookie guy the hell alone.

They’ve got so many! Did you know that their serpentine tongue is rumored to be six feet long?

The truth that Funnel would never tell is that their tongue is kind of technically endless, but it gets thicker and thicker the further it’s dragged out of their maw. The Witch wanted then to be spooky and who doesn’t think forked tongues are cute, but she didn’t want that wretched thing stretched for miles throughout her kitchen.

Another one of my favorite (and theirs, honestly) parts about Funnels anatomy is their ability to remove or rotate any part of their body at a joint. From each individual knuckle to their entire torso, if it has a joint, Funnel can drop it or twist it around while keeping full functionality over it. At some point during their time as The Ringmaster, Funnel practiced and conjured this ability into being able to move their own hair with a good bit of concentration to make maintaining the braids easier. (These days, Funnel only really does that if they’re feeling lazy)

The cute thing about it (if you’re into that sort of thing) is that whenever Funnel does a biiiiig stretch, you can see the dark lines of the segmentations of each of their individual joints until they relax again.

I think something that I would classify as being the MOST different is Funnels ability to realign their own bones on a whim with seemingly very little pain, which is a secondary thing to a different ability of theirs. At a glance, it appears to be contortionism and, yeah, Funnel is a very flexible individual, but then you really really look and you notice that that is really really not supposed to bend that way at all or even really be VISIBLE for you to see at the angle they’re at. There’s always these sickeningly wet and crunchy sounds that accompany their gross bone movements that make your skin crawl, but Funnel just stretches and pops back up to normal with a satisfied sigh.

Oh, hands down without question, my favorite fact is that Funnels eyes are glass, specifically funhouse mirror glass!! It’s part of the reason why they don’t blink. If your eyes never get dry because they’re never wet, what would you have to (unconsciously) blink for? It’s also why their illusions do not transfer over onto a reflective surface.

Despite popular curiosity, however, even though Funnel can manipulate their eyes in several ways and directions, they can’t remove their eyes from their head at all.
