teashoesandhair: lightning-shine: teashoesandhair: nikocchi: -apollo, the titan’s curse laughing bc i distinctly remember this one myth where apollo fell in love with this one girl but she didnt return his affections and turned into a tree instead (teashoesandhair maybe correct me if i’m wrong?) You are so right!! That would be Daphne - a nymph who Apollo saw and he was all “damn, I’m going to climb you like a tree” and Daphne was like “what a great idea, I’m going to make like a tree and leave” and she asked her dad Peneus to turn her into a laurel tree, because she just wasn’t ready to settle down and put down roots with Apollo and she wanted to branch out I’m in awe of how many awful puns you fit in to that reply. Excuse me they were all absolutely incredible puns so if you’re looking for bad puns here then you’re barking up the wrong tree -- source link
