Cheeseloon is the slash ship between Cheesy and Balloon from the Inanimate Insanity fandom.
Canon[]
In "Breaking the Ice", they both got on the team Grand Slams.
In "Marsh on Mars", Balloon asks Cheesy if there's anything he can help with. Cheesy ignores the question. Instead, he makes a joke that he's not very "pop-ular". Balloon explains that he was bossy in the first season, but not evil. He pleads to get another chance.
In "Everything's A-OJ", Balloon, Cheesy and the rest of the Grand Slams were seen screaming at OJ.
In "The Show Must Go On", Balloon presents his idea to have a Hide n' Seek game. By his idea, Cabby would seek for the contestants. He's seen to be nervously panting behind a bush, hoping to not be found. He exclaims to himself how he can't keep hiding forever. Just then, Cheesy appears and answers "Don't you mean, for cheddar?". He slaps his knee and explains that they're competing for cheddar, the synonym for money. Balloon laughs at the joke. He admits that he and Cheesy have shared many laughs together. Cheesy cuts him and says they can't share the win. Balloon, panicked, tells him not to leave him. Cheesy tells him that he's already done so much for him, admitting he's not just saying that to 'inflate' his ego. As he hit his knee, he held his hand out to Balloon. He advised Cheesy to stop hitting his knee for other people's amusement. Cheesy thanks him, saying his social game is strong. He runs off and screams for himself to get seeked. Balloon is later seen holding back tears because of him. In the same episode, Cabby indirectly asks if he's trying to tell them something.
Fanon[]
Cheeseloon is considered a rarepair within the Inanimate Insanity fandom. The ship gained popularity after Balloon’s imaginary scenario in “The Show Must Go On” about him and Cheesy playing hide and seek together. It may have hinted Balloon has some sort of deeper feelings for Cheesy. Despite that, those who don't ship it just think it was Balloon wishing to have his past ignored. Their most notable rival ships are Nickloon on Balloon’s side and Tropheesy and Cheesemic on Cheesy’s side.
On AO3, Cheeseloon currently has 8 works under its romantic tag and 2 under platonic. It is third most written ship for Balloon and second most written for Cheesy.
