pet names and endearments my ocs would use
u don't understand this is genuinely important to me.
CASPIAN: "hun," "honey," "mahal/mahal ko," "baby," "babe," "bebs." literally anything sickeningly cliche.
also the type to excessively use "my love" within two weeks of knowing the person.
HEART: "babes" mostly.
but ALSO! crazy specific nicknames based on the person's name or an inside joke. bonus point if the thing being referenced is EMBARASSING ASF.
usually defaults to "cutie" for EVERYONE.
DEONDRE: names are more intimate to him. cute, specific nicknames will b used though :> usually shorter versions of the person's name.
LEILA: something STUPID!!!
def an inside joke which leads to a dumb sounding pet name which is only really cute to her. no, she feels no shame.
CHANCE: "dear(est)," "sweetheart," "lovely," "darling."
using these in place of someone's name is the easiest thing for him. he hardly even thinks about it.
INSECTAVORA: "pretty," "sweetheart," "lovely." emphasis on pretty. she likes using that one.
VALENTINO: all. of them. esp when hes panicking.
but mostly "baby." <- it's so #default mode.
"sweetie," when he's feeling extra affectionate.
