Oh, sweet, thank you for reminding me to do my Nepeta/Cat Puns one. I had one going but it died when my computer crashed. Serves me right for making it in Notepad instead of Microsoft Word which autosaves.

I'll add mine in a reply to this thread when I'm done.

[tentacleTherapist]

This thread amuses me more than it really should.
I guess it's really handy for people who want to roleplay characters that use puns, but don't know what puns to use! c:

[PrinceOfHope]

Ahaha I used to have a hard time thinking up puns but now they are just fun ahaha i get a chuckle out of being all nautical. (Some seem to prefer naught or such for not but i prefer knot)

[Maxie Marauder]

i like equius

mane- main
hoof- have
foal- fool, full
rein- rain
udder- utter
neigh- nay
alcanteration- altercation
a fence- offence
colt- cold
stable
nightMARE
horsing around
horseplay
my voice is horse

[PeppermintCliche]

I really hate puns but I was amused when I was Feferi and almost used schooner for sooner but wasn't quite sure if the Kanaya I was with would get it or not.

[SolluxCaptor]

These are all both useful and funny. My favorite dunning pun/play on words though personally are still "bull" references for tav, "Adorabull" and such.
