I have a noble request. My group is going to play a fantasy campaign in Fate Core and the generous GM has allowed my character to have ARMS-inspired spring-weapons. I need all your spring-related puns, such as "spring into action". Bonus points if they can be made into character or temporary Aspects. Help me make him weep!

How much cringe are you looking for? Because if you want only the cringiest, worst puns that can only be responded to with groans, replace phrases with 'bring' with 'spring'.
Otherwise;
>No Spring Chicken
Maybe your character is a bit older than the rest?
>Hope Springs Eternal
Character has a bouncy, happy-go-lucky attitude
>Fall Back, Spring Forward
Character is exceptionally resilient or tenacious/stubborn
>Spring Fling
Could be a stunt where your character is good at grappling/throwing opponents; alternatively an aspect that your character is only capable of short-spanned romances

Don't think I can stretch to that or slink so low.

So, you never want to see another spring, eh? Okay, mister, I'll fix it so you get that wish!

I want as many as possible, no matter the quality. My character is a gnome with a weird sense of humor, so the puns are for in character-talk as well as aspects

>>53815482
The real killer for puns is context. Anyone can throw a portmanteau on paper, but there's no replacement for making the right reference at the right moment. Practice beats preparation in this case.

don't forget to throw in the occasional turn of phrase that references actual springs. tightly wound, spring loaded, that kind of bit.

I am not going to throw all my puns at the first session, but try and remember as many as I can. I just need the arsenal first

My character is also a gladiator, so it would make sense that he has some sponsors.
"After a fight, I always unwind at the *** Tavern!"

'Lets bounce' instead of 'lets move' or 'lets rock'?
Is there actually a word for how springs move, considering they usually are supposed to be fixed in place?

>Spring in his/her Step
(Agility/reaction)
>Spring Roll
Dodge attack with chance to trip
>Spring Break
Must show boobs for beads

This. If you weren't raised by a punny parent, it's an uphill battle
