bunny girl propaganda

Alouette for example, has a many nicknames other than Allie. Beau sometimes calls her Lulu, but also "my little lark" since that's what her name means. Terra calls her "chickadee / my little chickadee"

Apollo gets called Pollo (while coincidental, it does mean 'chicken' though the pronunciation is different), but also affectionately called "my/our little pidgey" by both when he was much younger due to his attachment to Sunny, though Terra often called him 'Champ' even before he became Champion. Beau sometimes calls him that too but to a much lesser extent, usually when he can tell Apollo's feeling down.

Oleander gets called 'little Torchic' specifically because of his hairstyle that Lida gives him. He's also called 'little lion/Litleo' when it's not tied up.

god wdym you can feel your organs shift back into place?!

wdym your undercarriage feels sore and swollen for WEEKS?! Some say it hurts to pee???? the postpartum depression too… oh my god girl i’m so sorry no wonder beau wanted to adopt instead

also reading about how late in the pregnancy, breathing gets difficult cos your organs are getting crushed like man what the fuck

The gist of it is that Terra wants a pet name since she calls him Beau and he's like. "That's not really a pet name is it? that's just the 2nd half of my name" but she's relatively proud that she gets to call him that because she feels like she earned it. (for context, she tried to call him 'Beau' during their first meeting just as a 'breaking the ice' friendliness type of thing, she didn't know what it meant 'boyfriend/lover'. He shut her down, but then later on allowed her to call him that after their promotion battle, though she still didn't know what it meant)

She also wanted something Kalosian because she thinks it would be more romantic.

His list is as follows, and pardon the inaccuracies, I'm not french i just did some googling months ago :

mon lapin (my rabbit), she rejects it because it's purely tied to her haircut

ma puce (my flea), he explains that it's meant to be cute, like she's his cute little flea, and she rejects it entirely because she finds it weird and they're also the same height so it doesn't really match

ma princesse (my princess), rejected because she doesn't really like being put on a pedestal or waited hand and foot in the way princesses typically are

ma chérie (my darling) and mon amour (my love), both rejected because she feels like it's lazy, it's just the Kalosian version of what he already calls her

there's one last name on the list that he's hesitant to tell her because he himself feels a little 🥴 using it but she can tell he's hiding something, and forces him to say it, and that's mon coeur, which means 'my heart'
