Canon[]

Battle for Dream Island Again (BFDIA)[]

Gaty and Saw are regularly depicted standing next to each other in the LOL ever since they were sent there in "Yeah Who, I Wanna Know!".

In "Well, Look Who It Is!", Saw painted Gaty perwinkle after they got hit with Gelatin's laser. Gaty is seen smiling widely.

Battle for Battle for Dream Island (BFB)[]

In "Getting Teardrop to Talk", Gaty and Saw were sitting together before Blocky grabs saw by the handle to cut the pentagon in pieces. When the contestants begin to form teams, Gaty tells Saw to join her team. Saw agrees, bringing Lollipop and Taco with her. During the challenge, Gaty tells Saw and Taco that Book has burst into flames and that their team is in the bottom two. Saw screams at them in response to swim faster through the lava; eventually, she is the last remaining member (except for Dora) and brings X's basket back to them.

In "Four Goes Too Far", Saw looks down at Earth while Team BLEH is traveling in space, causing her to get the Twinkle. Gaty complains while accidentally looking at Saw herself, growing further upset at letting herself get the Twinkle. The Twinkle then rapidly spreads back and forth between the Team BLEH members.

In "The Liar Ball You Don't Want", Gaty and Saw, along with Golf Ball, look down at Earth through a telescope on top of A Better Name Than That's broken ship and see that Taco has died.

In "Questions Answered", Donut attempts to 'punish' Team BLEH for consistently getting questions wrong due to Saw inhaling 8-Ball's fumes by playing a recording of Four's screech. Gaty proceeds to shame him, saying that because it's a recording and not an actual screech, "of course it has no effect."

In "Return of the Rocket Ship", Gaty is happy to have Saw finally return after being gone for so long. When Saw explains that she told Taco and Lollipop she was gone, Gaty explains to her why neither of them would've told the rest of the team and then says hi. Saw greets Gaty back, along with accidentally screaming in her face. Gaty asks if she's okay, to which she responds by accidentally screaming loudly again. A bit later, Gaty defends Saw from Book's accusations of her "abandoning" Team BLEH, only for Gaty to not only defend Saw, but also pull Book away to reprimand her for her behavior.

In "The Four is Lava", Saw expresses her worries about her team not being able to do Cake at Stake due to them being stuck undergrouhd. Gaty nervously responds that if none of them leave the hole, none of them would be eliminated. When Saw tries to reason with her that it would be unfair to the other teams, Gaty yells that she doesn't want to be eliminated and begins crying, while Saw comforts her. When Lollipop asks if Dora can talk to Four, Saw says that Dora wouldn’t be able to communicate with Four. Gaty attempts to tell her otherwise, but is interrupted by Lollipop.

The Power of Two (TPOT)[]

In "You Know Those Buttons Don't Do Anything, Right?", Saw admits that she misses Lollipop and Taco, in which Gaty reassures her that she's still here for her. As Gaty is arguing with the others over their team name, she regularly glances back at Saw while the latter attempts to calm them down, before Saw screams their official name, "Team8s". Gaty glances disappointingly at the on-screen team logo. Later, during the challenge, Saw has Donut hold her over the edge of the building. Gaty sees this and magnetizes her hinges to get pulled up to her, making their team safe.

In "The Worst Day of Black Hole's Life", while it's shown on-screen that Team8s have 12.5 blocks stacked, Saw can be seen pointing out the "funny plant" she had found earlier to Gaty. Gaty appears curious.

In "Gardening Zero", Team8s decide to honor Saw's elimination in the same episode by observing the "funny plant". Gaty is the one to note that that "funny plants" have three lives, which then ironically dissipate through a variety of accident. The episode's challenge ends up revolving around said "funny plant", as the teams protect the last remaining "funny plants" in Goiky.

BFDI x II 2025 Tour[]

During the BFDI x II 2025 Tour Q&A, a fan had asked if Saw and Gaty will reunite due to Gaty's disappearance from TPOT 15 onwards. In response, Sam Thornbury, the showrunner and head writer of TPOT, said they will "definitely see each other again."[1]

Fanon[]

Sawty is a known pairing in the Battle for Dream Island fandom. Prior to TPOT, it was Gaty and Saw's most known ship, as fans enjoy their friendly yet opposites-attract-like dynamic. The fact that the both of them are considered "trans-coded" has also drawn attention to the ship. Due since the release of TPOT and Saw's elimination, though, Gattwo has since become Gaty's most well-known ship and rivals Sawty, while the latter has been somewhat sidetracked. There is still a fan base for it in the modern day, with their cameo appearances in BFDIA and promotional material bringing merit to the ship.
