Eh, Patchy, my girl?

That's not a very dignified way to refer to someone. In fact, it reminds me a bit of San Andreas' ghettospeak.

Think Sherlock Holmes.

Exactly. She uses the suffix "-kun", which is mock-disrespectful to begin with, plus a dialectal "ya" as an emphatic. If she were addressing a male, I'd have rendered it "m'lad" or "my boy", though it feels to me more like a "me lad/me young buck", a la Long John Silver. Pirate-speak doesn't seem to suit Remilia, though, so I translated as you see.
