Oh god, I hate pairing-smush names. Starfire... just leads my mind to Teen Titans. Ahaha. And ffff I use nicknames myself because I'm a lazy shit sometimes but lolol. In fic? Gah. I mean yeah, in dialogue, but I'm hoping it is obvious there, and that Sideswipe calls Sunstreaker Sunny, Dandelion, Buttercup, Sunflower, etc etc etc JUST TO PISS HIM OFF And then Bluestreak picks up on "Sunny" and Sunny's like FFFU but Bluestreak's just too cute, ahaha. /shot

The best pairing abbreviation is AS/SS though. AAASS. (Acid Storm/Sunstorm)
