Elementalists Pet Name Headcanons
Griffin and MC call each other babe and trust me, you have never heard that word said with so. Much. Affection. Their voices get so saturated with it that other people start to feel intrusive when they overhear.
One syllable has never been said in so many ways before and Griffin and MC understand each other so well and so instinctively that they’ve had whole conversations made up of just that one word. It drives the rest of the Pend Pals mad, but guess who are too lost in each other’s eyes to care?
In public, MC calls Shreya gorgeous and Shreya calls MC hot stuff. They are relentless flirts, especially with each other so inevitably MC gets called sunshine, always accompanied with a wink. Whenever that happens, MC calls Shreya Venus. Why? Venus is the goddess of love and beauty and the planet Venus orbits the sun. MC thinks they’re being clever. Shreya loves it anyway.
When they’re alone together, Shreya likes to call MC my dearest, and she says it with such softness that MC can never stop smiling after they hear it. And Shreya can never smiling when MC looks at her like That and calls her precious.
Beckett scoffs at the idea of pet names, so of course MC goes all in. Schnookums, popsie, boo-bear… every one is met with a grumble and a blush and a roll of the eyes until MC lands on sweetheart. That just makes him squirm in surprise and try not to smile, so MC stops bothering to call him anything else.
At first, Beckett absolutely refuses to participate, but in an unguarded moment a darling slips out and the look on MC’s face makes Beckett start to wonder what his objection to the idea really was in the first place.
Aster isn’t familiar with pet names at first - wood nymphs don’t really have them - but once she learns about them, she gets very keen on the idea. She tries out a few, but eventually settles on love. After all, it’s the truth, isn’t it?
MC likes to tease a bit, sometimes calling Aster flower or petal just to make her laugh and to see her blossoms change colour. More seriously, MC loves to call Aster angel. Partly for the reaction (ok, a lot for the reaction), but partly because nothing else comes anywhere close to describing this divine woman.
