queenslayerbee: Isabelle Adjany as Lucy Harker in 1979's "Nosferatu the Vampire". She's surrounded by darkness, looking over her shoulder while she wears a white nightgown and a cross as a necklace. A hand with long nails like a claw is reaching for her neck from the darkness behind her. (Default)

I'm reading a lot of dc/batman comics fic lately... people are definitely using one-letter nicknames lmao (largely "B" for Bruce/Batman).

I get it's a way to show the characters are being ~affectionate and close but a.) there are far better way to do this, and b.) when it's done with names that are one or even two syllables long it looks ridiculous! Not to mention it often butchers incredibly beautiful names, IMO.

'B' for Bruce/Batman (or Buffy) I can go for a bit, coming from certain characters. It totally worked for Faith. But yeah - most of the time? Just not on.

I assumed the single-letter nicknames in Batman fics was for operational reasons. Like, not giving away civilian identities over comms or not accidentally using code names in public.

(I mean, it only works so far, but it seems reasonable for dealing with casual eavesdropping.)
