Fizzlebean Siblings is the family ship between Snorpy and Floofty Fizzlebean from the Bugsnax fandom.
Canon[]
While it is not stated in-game whether either of them were aware that the other one would be joining the expedition, Snorpy was dragged to Snaktooth by Chandlo Funkbun, whereas Floofty went willingly due to their own scientific curiosity.
The player is briefly introduced to Floofty early on in the game, but neither them or Snorpy are really seen until later on. Throughout the game, the two are shown to have a strained relationship. After Snorpy returns to Snaxburg, he becomes suspicious of the danger in town and asks if anyone has seen Floofty, stating that his sibling is prone to such sneaky behaviour. When Filbo declares that they need to bring everyone back to town, Snorpy reluctantly informs the Journalist that he has tracked Floofty and shares their whereabouts.
When Floofty returns to Snaxburg, Snorpy regards them with suspicion, whilst Floofty seems disinterested in talking to him. Snorpy accuses them of being up to something, and Floofty scolds him for wasting his intellect on things other than their research. After criticizing him for keeping his feelings for Chandlo a secret, they agree to stay away from each other.
In his interview, Snorpy reveals that he left town because, after Lizbert and Eggabell went missing, Floofty started trying to involve him in their experiments.
During Floofty's personal sidequest 'Floofty Faces Judgement', Snorpy refuses to take part in their experiment, knowing it will not end well. Floofty borrows one of Snorpy's inventions for their experiment and reveals to the Journalist that they plan to chop off their own head. Before they can succeed, however, Snorpy interrupts the experiment and berates them for putting themself in danger. He tells them that he cares about them and, while Floofty insists that their work is more important, Snorpy tells them that the world will go on with or without their experiments. Unfortunately, Floofty is too angry with their brother for ruining their experiment and insults him, and Snorpy tells them that their attitude is the reason none of the grumps wanted to help them before leaving. Floofty then admits to the Journalist that they know their brother isn't stupid and expresses some regret in reacting the way they did.
During 'Major Celebration', the two reconcile. Floofty apologises to Snorpy for insulting him and tells him they appreciate his intellectual input in their experiments. Snorpy warily forgives them, regretting it when Floofty instantly asks him to peer review their research papers. Snorpy asks the Journalist to distract Floofty so that he can talk to Chandlo, and the two eventually join the other grumps on the dance floor.
If Snorpy dies during the final battle, Floofty expresses regret at wasting so much time arguing with their brother. They vow to become more cautious with their research, knowing Snorpy would want them to stop taking such life-threatening risks. They also promise to look after Snorpy's boyfriend, Chandlo. If Floofty dies, Snorpy also regrets spending so much time pushing his sibling away. He wishes they could've made amends, and vows to continue Floofty's work for them.
DLC[]
While Snorpy himself doesn't join the expedition to the Isle of Bigsnax, a lot is learnt about their relationship.
When putting together a team to venture the new island, Snorpy reluctantly suggests bringing Floofty, knowing their sibling is the smartest grumpus on Snaktooth. Floofty is annoyed that Snorpy found it so easy to get volunteers, while they themselves received no offers. When Snorpy and Chandlo argue about not wanting to split up, Floofty teases them for worrying every time they are apart.
While trying to figure out how to help Snorpy's anxiety, Chandlo asks Floofty if he was like that when they were younger. They state that, while Snorpy has always been imaginative, he has become more paranoid since they arrived on Snaktooth Island. Chandlo asks Floofty what happened between them and Snorpy to make their relationship so strained. Floofty explains that they were working together on a project for the government and when Snorpy found out that the project was corrupt, he tried to make it public knowledge and Floofty disagreed. They were eventually fired and the government started a slander campaign against them to discredit any allegations the pair made. Floofty assures Chandlo that, while the government were in fact after them, Snorpy had blown the whole thing out of proportion.
