Canon 77d or Canon SL2

I currently own a 7D Mark 1. It is mostly outdated compared to todays standards. I kind of want to mess around with creating videos while still taking some photos. I mostly shoot portrait and star/nightscapes.

Would it be smarter to keep my 7d for stills and pick up a cheap SL2 body for video? or sell the 7d and go for the 77d and use it for both video and stills? I don't shoot in harsh climates so I am not worried about weather proofing so I ruled out the 80D. I am also under the "assumption" that the 7d would still outperform the SL2 for stills?
