Boreas - Tumblr Posts
Ok but the Eurus part is also post Narcissus. (also this is so funny lmao)
The wind gods all had a thing for and/or with Apollo at one point or another.
Boreas: Literally myth canon. You've heard me yak about this often LMAO
Zephyrus: Briefly talked about this in my Boreas post! Onesided Pinning rippppppp
Eurus: from @literallyjusttoa's most recent stream, post-Hyacinthus Apollo bangs Eurus because what do you do when you hate the West Wind? YOU FUCK THE EAST WIND!
Notus: Created in the Discord during a chat with @fuzzystudios @xxzephyrbreezexx and @godofdumpsterfalling! Either refuses to acknowledge his attraction because he has BEEF with Boreas, or it was a one-time thing and uh...Apollo said no to round 2 XD Or BOTH!
I imagine the bros being like;
Boreas: *incredibly smug about being "Apollo's favorite"*
Zephyrus: *desperate pinning*
Eurus: *chill about it because it WAS just a one-time thing*
Notus: *ignoring the attraction ever existed*
Soo... It's said that Narcissus desperately fell in love with Eurus but Eurus reject him. The nymph Medusa decided to help Narcissus and made him never fall in love with other again. Meanwhile Nemesis made Eurus fall in love with Narcissus but it was too late: He had already drown. Source: Eurus, wikipedia in Hebrew.

Prayers•
“Boreas, whose wint'ry blasts, terrific, tear the bosom of the deep surrounding air; Cold icy pow'r, approach, and fav'ring blow, and Thrace a while desert expos'd to snow: The misty station of the air dissolve, with pregnant clouds, whose frames in show'rs resolve: Serenely temper all within the sky, and wipe from moisture, Æther's beauteous eye.”
