A witch turned me into a deer, & now I only regain human form when tweeting. Or when moonlight touches the lake - wait, no, that's when I was a swan she/her

You know how the Greek gods are just, just super-jerks sometimes?
Well, you will when you're done with a #FolkloreThursday story thread called:

CADMUS AND THE DRAGON'S TEETH
or
'Snake, Battle, & Roll'

IMAGE: 'Cadmus and Minerva,' Peter Paul Reubens, 1636 AGENOR: Cadmus, have you seen Europa this morning?
C: She’s probably out picking flowers.
A: I love that girl but I wonder if she’ll ever achieve anything of note.
[Cut to: Europa standing on a bull like a surfboard as it speeds across the ocean]
E: SAY MY NAME, NEW CONTINENT!

Ever wonder how burnt offerings got started? Or your baby is secretly a genius &/or trolling you? You’ll find the answers in a #folklorethursday story thread called
Hermes & the Cows of Apollo
Or
‘Burn, Baby, Burn”
IMAGE: ‘Landschaft mit Apollo und Merkur,’ Claude Lorrain (1604) [The COURTROOM OF OLYMPUS. APOLLO & HERMES stand before a tribunal comprised of all the other gods. HERMES, it should be noted, is a literal toddler.]
ARTEMIS: [sotto] Picking on someone your own size-slash-maturity level, bro?
APOLLO: shaddup

#FolkloreThursday STORY THREAD!

'Better the Devil you Hoe'

[Image: 'American Gothic,' Grant Wood 1930] Once upon a time there was a farmer who was surveying a field he’d recently purchased, when lo and behold he saw an imp sitting on a pile of coals smack-dab in the middle of it.

Say what you will about infernals, but they know how to make an entrance.

STORY THREAD: TAM-LIN
Or
“Un-Dammit, Janet”
Girl meets boy, girl loses boy, girl single-handedly defeats faery court on Halloween to save him. While 9 months pregnant.
Pls note Janet has officially joined the ranks of Undersung Faery Tales Heroines in a BIG WAY.
#folklorethursday The story begins with the Narrator warning all maidens to stay out of Carterhaugh or Chaster’s Wood or as I like to call it, De-flower Garden, because a fella named Tam-Lin lives there, and he charges one (1) green kirtle or one (1) sextimes as price of admission.

There are plenty of resources on the Olympian Gods, but do any of them answer the question, "How would I fare in a fistfight against this guy?"

I got u, bb

SHOULD YOU FIGHT: GREEK #GODS EDITION

#FolkloreThursday

picture citations at end ZEUS: King of the Gods. Goes HAM if his throne's challenged, ranging from "lightning bolt" to "eating girlfriend in case her 👏 currently 👏 non-existent 👏 2nd child one day threatens him." Do not fight, esp. bc you KNOW he'll try & turn it into a makeout sesh halfway through.
