[The primal glint in the little tyke's big greens puts Mordecai on edge--moments like these made him thankful he never took a babysitting job in his life.]
Geez, why are you so touchy about your name? Look,if you really don't like it,take it to your mun--don't take your frustration out on other muses, Butterbutt.
[Because, maturity! (What is maturity to a big, anthropomorphic blue bird, anyway?)]
Well, if this isn't touchy, I don't know what this is...you have some serious anger issues, 'Cup-cake.
[Mordecai pinches his temples a moment in thought and then continues to provide some form of counseling to the superheroine.]
Just take a deep breath and...punch a pillow or something. Then, after you've cooled down, try to talk things over with your mun. Screaming at other muses won't do a thing about your name situation.
[And then this android grins at her and suggests that she's cute, darnit!] I don't want it to be cute! [That may be, but her tone is at least as helplessly flustered as it is angry on that.]
I'm still gonna know. [She sounds reluctantly resigned rather than honestly angry by now, at least.] Why couldn't she have made one out of - I dunno, stuff that I've said or something? Something cool.
I'm not sure. Maybe she thought she was being funny. Maybe she had a creative block. Mine is just the title of my story itself translated from German to English, even though the English title was open. I don't understand them any more than you do, Buttercup.
It's a word from the 1600's way of speaking English. It is also my name. Um... I don't actually know the meaning, myself. I think the translators went with it because they thought it sounded good. People are strange like that.
I'm the touuu~ghest fighhh~terrr!! Remember?! [Gives the air a brisk one-two punch.] She coulda picked something cool I said or something -- not the way one stupid ol' jerk says "Buttercup." [Roll of the eyes.]

'Cept that's not how you say my name, unless you're some jerk guy. [Not worth naming names.] It's "Buttercup."

Now that was uncalled for--not cool, BUH-durr-cup, not cool!

Well you say my name right and I'll use yours. [That mocking doesn't count!]

...And I am NOT touchy about my name!
[Aye, and Birdbrain still has a leg-up in maturity over Butthurtcup.]
