"Hey, babe," Wally says. Artemis ducks away from his kiss and glares at him.
"Don't call me babe. It sounds so… mushy."
"What about sugar bear?"
"No."
"Pookie?"
"Absolutely not."
"Sweetie pie?"
"I am not a desert."
"Blondie bear?"
"That sound like a really bad little kid toy."
"Cuddle bug."
"No."
"Love muffin?"
"Wall-
"Baby cakes?"
"No, I don-"
"Sweetums?"
"Wally stop-"
"Sugar plum?"
"OK FINE! I guess babe works."
"Well you most definitely are a babe, but Blondie bear is sort of growing on me."
"No, Wally."
