All lovers of Apollo die factoid actually a statistical error, average lover of Apollo doesn't die but has him running around like a headless chicken embarrassing himself and trying to have their babies but SOCIETY SOCIETY thinks that's lame-

Okay, I’m sorry (not really) but Hyacinthus x Apollo is so boring.

Tragic flower twink dies, Apollo mourns, cue eternal sobbing and petals on the wind...yeah yeah, we've seen this movie. It’s all very “paint me like one of your Delphic boys” and zero fun.

But Apollo and Branchus?

Apollo shows up and Branchus just thinks he’s a fine slice of honey and kisses him. No build-up. No preamble. No ‘let’s play discus and accidentally doom the twink’. Powerful. Zero hesitation. I would trust Branchus to get things done in any myth.

That man had priorities and taste. I can’t take it seriously and that’s why I love it. It’s just “damn okay then” and Apollo’s like “cool, you’re my prophet now.” It’s so unserious it loops back around to being iconic.

Branchus: I’m proud to identify as morosexual.

Branchus: I’m attracted to dumbasses and dumbasses exclusively.

Apollo: *accidentally milks a male goat in his attempt to seduce Branchus*

Branchus: *already taking off his clothes* Apollo, you’re so fucking stupid.

I love how both Sparta and Miletus celebrated Apollo having a boyfriend.

Sparta -> Hyacinthus (had a festival called the Hyacinthia, where they celebrated their love, mourned Hya's death, and celebrated his resurrection to Olympus)

Miletus -> Branchus (built a temple dedicated to Branchus & Apollo, even naming it after the kiss Branchus gave Apollo)

so cute <3
