I type the letters fuwafuwataimu.

Mozc suggests 「ふわふわタイム」.

Google suggests 「ふわふわ時間」.

Art for the single "Fuwa Fuwa Time" by the Sakuragaoka High School Light Music Club from the late-2000s anime series K-On. The artwork depicts four anime girls in a cutesy moé style, wearing maid outfits. One of the girls looks embarrassed while the others look happy. The song's title as written in Japanese has the characters normally read as jikan, namely the Sino-Japanese word for time, instead read as taimu, the katakanization of English "time". This irregular reading is indicated on the song's cover art using a gloss.

I am aware, that's why I laughed my ass off when I first got Google's Japanese IME and realized that it actually does correctly spell the name of Fuwa Fuwa Time despite the highly irregular reading. In fact Google's IME correctly spells most widely known song titles, fictional work titles, or fictional character names, with an irregular reading. Mozc still does it with a few, like correctly converting inisyarudhi- into 「頭文字D」, but it's a lot more limited with Mozc.
