Buntoine

Buntoine is the het ship between Bunnie Rabbot and Antoine D'Coolette from the Sonic the Hedgehog fandom.

SatAM
Bunnie and Antoine were not in a relationship in this universe, as Antoine had unrequited feelings for Sally. The two were both members of the Freedom Fighters.

Pre-Super Genesis Wave
While Antoine had been a member of the Knothole Freedom Fighters since early childhood, Bunnie was living on her own well into her teenage years. One day, Bunnie was captured by a SWATbot, but Antoine managed to save her by pushing a rock down a hill, destroying the robot. Bunnie was, however, captured again, and this time she was partially roboticized before she was saved by Freedom Fighters Sonic and Rotor. From that moment onwards, Bunnie was a member of the Freedom Fighters.

Bunnie and Antoine later worked closely together. When the Freedom Fighters encountered the Wolf Pack, a fight started due to recent events in the battle against Robotnik. Upset by this, Antoine walked away. Bunnie followed him, trying to comfort him by telling him she thought he was brave. Bunnie kissed Antoine, much to his surprise. The two started a relationship quietly shortly before Operation: EndGame.

During Operation: EndGame, Antoine and Bunnie were among the first to learn that Sally's supposed death and Sonic supposedly causing it were part of a plot. However, before they could tell anyone, they were captured by Crocbot and sent Downunda. Crocbot made a precaution that would kill Antoine if Bunnie tried to break free with her robotic limbs. However, she could still use her organic arm to free the prisoners, which she did. Bunnie and Antoine were involved in the final battle against Robotnik.

Some time later, Antoine and Bunnie, along with Amy Rose, went to Mercia to look for Antoine's father Armand. They managed to find him with the help of Rob o' the Hedge and Knuckles the Echidna, and Bunnie guarded him on their way back to Knothole.

During the year Sonic was absent, Antoine supposedly broke up with Bunnie, but it turned out Antoine had been replaced with an evil alternate reality version of him, Patch D'Coolette. As Bunnie did not know this, she got reckless and emotional, thinking Antoine no longer loved him. Bunnie even tried to date Sonic, who had been replaced with Scourge, in order to make Antoine jealous. When the real Sonic returned, he solved the issue by reuniting Bunnie with the real Antoine.

Following the destruction Patch had caused to Antoine's home, Bunnie offered Antoine to move in with her, but he refused as the two were not married. Armand D'Coolette, who was dying, encouraged his son and Bunnie's relationship, wishing the two happiness and forgiving Bunnie for the time she tried to get involved with Sonic. Following this, Antoine proposed to Bunnie, which initially shocked her but she accepted it shortly afterwards.

Bunnie and Antoine got married without incident. However, not long after the wedding, Knothole was destroyed by Eggman and the two were captured. Bunnie and Antoine were, however, freed shortly afterwards in a rescue mission lead by NICOLE.

Bunnie got affected by crystalline magic, Naugus cured her, but in the process, turned her back into 100% flesh and blood. Although she was happy at first, she later got depressed feeling she couldn't fight alongside the Freedom Fighters anymore, but Antoine assured her she would find another way to fight. However, during an fight against Mecha Sally and Metal Sonic, Bunnie wasn't able to help in battle without her cybernetics, and when Antoine was struggling with Metal, the robot self-destructed, Antoine got caught in the explosion and fell in coma after being taken to the hospital. Bunnie broke down in grief, she blamed herself for not being able to save Antoine, so left to the Great Desert to "make things right" to everyone.

After all this, the Genesis Wave, and the subsequent Super Genesis Wave, altered reality completly.

Light Mobius

In this alternate future, Bunnie and Antoine had two children: a son called Jacques and a daughter called Belle.

Dark Mobius

In this reality, Bunnie and Antoine, now known as Scarlette Rabbot and Cutlass Depardieu, respectively, were members of the Dark Freedom Fighters fighting against Dark Enerjak. However, unlike their main reality counterparts, they were not together, as Scarlette was dating Demo Duck.

Post-Super Genesis Wave
In the new reality created by the Super Genesis Wave, Antoine and Bunnie, as kids, ended up in Knothole Village after Dr. Eggman took over Mobotropolis. At the time, Bunnie had her left arm and legs turned into cybernetics, and she was struggling to learn to walk again, but she refused to give up. Bunnie's determination inspired Antoine to be more brave, so the two joined the Freedom Fighters together. Later, Bunnie confessed to Antoine that his bravery inspired her to make it so far. The two started dating and Antoine proposed to Bunnie, which she accepted.

Once Sonic and Tails restored Antoine's memories from their original reality, Antoine's first concerns were about how was Bunnie. When Sonic, Tails and Bunnie came back from Metropolis Zone, Antoine warmly welcomed his wife, when Bunnie's memories from the original world were restored, she broke down in tears upon remembering how Antoine fell in coma, and he hugged and supported her.

Fanon
Buntoine is a fairly popular ship and the most popular ship for both characters. It is a common side ship for people as neither Bunnie nor Antoine are involved in the very popular ships.

Some fans had shipped them as early as their first appearances in SatAM, but most of the pairing's support came from after the two became an official couple in the Archie Comics.
