How would model something being ADORABLE and being able to influence people with its adorableness?

Attractive + Pitiable is canonically the way to do this. The combination gets you 190 proof kawai.

I don't know why, but as soon as I looked at this combination, it made me laugh.

And Social Stigma (Minor) actually makes it more powerful by increassing the likely hood of getting the +3

Presumably because Pitiable "only" gives you the +3 reaction "from those who consider you to be in a position of helplessness, weakness, or need." Roguebfl's assumption (probably a GM-call) is that "Social Stigma: Minor" means that most people consider you helpless/weak (and thus, eligible for the bonus) by virtue of being underage.

Though it also also counter balanced with the -2 to reaction roles form adults "went trying to deal with others as adult"

It works great for a bunny, but your going to have something else the repset you see asn either Food, Pet, or Pest.

I was thinking of taking Charisma with a limitation. Good idea?

Why would you do that instead of using Appearance? Use the Androgynous or Impressive modifier on it to do away with the preference-based attraction issue (probably...) and what else do you need?
