“ | Oh, pssh, don't worry about that, I don't care about no island, or no BFB screen. I'm just glad we're on good terms again. | ” |
— Firey, "The Tweested Temple"
|
This page lists the interactions between Firey and Leafy.
Firey and Leafy's relationship is complex and changes throughout the series. They are initially friendly, working together at times. However, they also argue and even come to dislike each other at times. There is evidence that Firey cares about Leafy and they save each other on multiple occasions. However, Firey can also be insensitive to Leafy's feelings. Such notable example include when Firey excluded Leafy from Dream Island in "Return of the Hang Glider", resulting in Leafy buying Dream Island from the Announcer, a predicament that left Firey haunted for several seasons to come. In the end, they appear to reconcile and become friends again.

After the Cake at Stake, Leafy and Firey talk about how relieved they are that David is gone and decide to be friends. When Firey tells the Announcer that only good people get to be friends, Leafy says "Ooo, burn!" They work together in the contest to zap Spongy but miss every shot. Instead, Spongy shoots Leafy, upsetting Firey.
In "The Glistening", Firey agreed with Leafy on going back to earth when she just so happened to have a bag of fuel. They are both happy to be riding back.
In "Hurtful!", Leafy is happy that they both reached the final four. After Firey is killed by Flower, Leafy gets to the boat challenge and says she'll wait for Firey. Leafy offered to give Firey the larger boat because she knew he couldn't touch water and Firey thanks her. When Flower shoves Firey towards the lake, Leafy tries to rescue him but got burned in the process (and Firey fell in the water and died). When there are no boats left, Leafy says he can ride on her back as long as he doesn't set her on fire. Firey is glad but is knocked off her back by Flower and he dies once again. Leafy turns to him saying "No, don't die!"
At the end of the episode, Firey and Leafy sit together at night. Firey says that since the Announcer has a recovery center, they could kill him as much as they want and he'd still be back to give them Dream Island. Cut to the two, along with Bubble and Flower killing the Announcer over and over.
In "Insectophobe's Nightmare 2", when Leafy assumes that Bubble doesn't want to be friends again, she says she would rather be with Firey because he appreciates her presence. They ride on a Ferris Wheel together, but it's shown that Firey installed a lava fall which kills Leafy. In the same episode, Firey was disappointed that Leafy was dead and could not be recovered and even bet his life's earnings on the Announcer bluffing that he sold the recovery centers.
In "Return of the Hang Glider", Leafy said she was going to be happy if any of the finalists win. Leafy was impressed with how Firey let Flower and Coiny into Dream Island. At the end of the same episode, Firey wanted to apologize to Leafy and when the others wanted to execute her for buying/stealing the island, he flew on a hang glider and saved her. He then apologized and said what he wanted most was her, not Dream Island, and would rather be with her whether they are on Dream Island or not.

Through an intense confrontation, the two finally make peace and hug (though Leafy is burnt to ash in the process, and Firey is disturbed). In order to save Firey from elimination and keep everyone from being mad at him, she says that she'll tell everyone she stole the diary. In a short clip at the end of the same episode, after Firey has been sentenced to clean the entire railway to Yellow Face's Warehouse, Leafy offers to help, an offer Firey graciously accepts, and they hug again with the exact same results as before (Firey even tells himself he has to stop doing it).
In "Fashion For Your Face!", Leafy shows Firey the sweater that Flower made for her. When Firey tells the Have Cots that he accidentally made the high-speed express train burst into flames, Leafy says that it's okay and that mistakes happen, to which Firey smiles. Leafy also requests Firey to ride a train to Yellow Face's Warehouse along with the other members of Have Cots, to which Firey politely says no, as to remain loyal with the other Have Nots members. However, Firey adds that they can ride together next time.
In "The Game Has Changed", during the challenge, Firey tells Gelatin that he'd rather make a gift for Leafy then try to win the contest despite wanting immunity. Further explaining that Leafy has been trying really hard and that her efforts should be rewarded. Firey builds Leafy a Ferris wheel in order to apologize for neglecting her for so long. Leafy accepts his apology and loves the Ferris wheel he made, and they agree to go for a ride together. During the stinger, Firey and Leafy have apparently been riding the Ferris wheel for over 8 hours.
In "The Tweested Temple", when Firey is going to the BRB, Leafy extends her arm upward and grabs him, and tells Firey she feels bad that he didn't get the prize he wanted. But Firey tells her that he doesn't care about either Dream Island or A BFB anymore, because the only thing he cares now is that him and Leafy are on good terms.
In "B.F.B. = Back From Beginning", Firey learns that Leafy got eliminated and tells her he is sorry to hear about that, but she tells him that she is sure it will be okay.

In "Chapter Complete", while talking with Flower about her victory, Firey mentions how he had a chance to share his prize with someone he cared about and made a mistake. In the golden bus, Leafy tries to get the BFDI back for Firey, saying that she already let him lose one prize and won't let him lose another. Later, Leafy and Firey look on at how Flower and Gelatin can actually use their prizes and get along, and Leafy asks Firey if they want to find a Dream island together. Firey agrees, and the last frame of the episode is them sailing off into the sunset together. In the stinger, Leafy and Firey try to make the first and the last words of the season the same which is "hey".

In "Category One", they continuously build their "Dreamier Island" in the form of wooden structures. They communicate through silent gestures, including Firey poking at Leafy of an incoming storm, which she replies back with a wave gesture. They take shelter together due to the storm, glancing at each other in fear. Once Firey emerges from a collapsed wooden structure, Firey simply mentions "Leafy," concerned of her whereabouts. In the stinger, Firey walks towards the shore and looks at the sky most likely very sad, suggesting he could not find Leafy among the remains.
Neutral interactions[]
BFDI[]
In "Don't Pierce My Flesh", when Firey was glad Rocky was gone, Leafy told him that wasn't nice. In the same episode, when Leafy said that they should use both replacement boxes, Firey shouted that they couldn't use both. When Leafy asks why not, Firey changes his mind. The Firey Speaker Box calls Leafy awesome when he announces that she's safe, Leafy thanks him for this.
In "Hurtful!", when Leafy throws Ice Cube into the furnace, Firey asks her why she even did so, since she wasn't even made of metal.

In "Launch Party", Leafy asks Ice Cube if she wants to play tic-tac-toe, before remembering that that was more of Firey's thing. Later, Leafy asks Coiny if he is not secretly angry at Pin's betrayal of him, saying she would be angry if she were betrayed by her best friend. It is unclear if this is Leafy expressing anger at Firey for betraying her, or whether she does not consider that he betrayed her at this point in the timeline, since she still considered him a friend in "Get in the Van".

In "Take the Tower", Leafy tries to tell Ruby and Taco not to fall off the bracelet out of fear of having to face Firey. When they both fall off, Leafy begins to have a slight mental breakdown.

In "Return of the Hang Glider", Firey didn't let Leafy into Dream Island because she wanted to get out of the Ferris Wheel that he made in "Insectophobe's Nightmare 2", causing Leafy to become angry enough to buy Dream Island, stealing it from Firey and everyone else out of revenge. Firey wanted Leafy away from Dream Island so much that he even boarded the doors so she couldn't come in.
BFDIA[]
In "Get in the Van", Firey apparently felt relieved when Gelatin killed Leafy, though it is revealed in "The Four is Lava" that this was just him pretending, as part of his disassociation with Leafy.

In "Get to the Top in 500 Steps", when Leafy is greeting everyone in The Losers!, Firey walks away when Leafy attempts to interact with him.
In "The Four is Lava", Leafy is hurt by Firey ignoring her intentionally simply because he thinks people hate her. Firey in response just calls her clueless for feeling this way and states that she expects so much from others. When he also says how that is why no one likes her, Leafy suggests that they never speak to each other again and Firey angrily agrees. Firey later goes back on this entirely because they need to do the contest. Leafy refuses to compete since she felt Firey would get eliminated for being cruel to her. At one point during the challenge, Firey and Leafy argue over whether or not if Leafy has any friends. Once they are safe, Leafy asks Eggy if they are friends to prove a point to Firey. Firey is shocked to see that Leafy does have a friend despite her theft of Dream Island. In the stinger ending, Firey can be seen arguing about Leafy with Eggy and Needle. Firey also gives Leafy an annoyed look when she reveals to Clock that it is episode fifteen.

In "Who Stole Donut's Diary?", Leafy calls Firey to the stand to ask him questions, which Firey is both annoyed and unsurprised by. Firey also mocks Leafy for her "Fourner" joke. Leafy asks Firey where he was when the diary was stolen, so Firey makes up a story about how Leafy stole it.
In "The Game Has Changed", Leafy questions why Firey didn't stand up for her against Lollipop, and scolds him for not apologizing for ignoring her for years. She then walks away, telling him she'll talk to him later, in a disappointed tone.
