Favorite #queer stories from Greek mythology for #MythologyMonday

Dionysos and Ampelos
I think this is the most beautiful (even if tragic) love story in Greek mythology. Nonnus tells it in detail. The young Satyr Ampelos is Dionysos' first love. When he dies in an accident, Dionysos gireves for him so deeply that he is allowed to turn into the fist vine instead of going to the Underworld. They stay together, and Ampelos makes Dionysos who he is - god of wine and life.
