a Santa!Cthulhu

Fandom: Lovecraft, in a way
Characters/Pairings: Cthulhu
Media used: charcoal, chalk and black pencil on gray paper
Rating/warnings: G, none
Notes/comments: This is a bit late, but I guess technically Christmas season sort of lasts until the 6th, yes? This sketch was inspired by the "Santa Cthuluclaus" LJ v-gift I've seen on other people's profiles, an idea which I found cute, only the clipart looks nothing like Cthulhu, not even the jokey cute renderings, but instead looks like a sad octopus with a santa hat, which for some strange reason is carrying flowers and a pencil. Which is just odd, even if you make a sad octopus stand in for Cthulhu. I've done cute Cthulhus before, but I doodled one with a santa hat this time. You probably shouldn't count on this one delivering any of the presents though...

Fabulous! The Santa hat is... a particularly disturbing touch (in a good way).

It is Very Clear that Cthlulhu ate santa. At the very least, he at a shopping mall santa, which may I suppose have been a service. But I am Not Convinced by the suggestion that no santas were harmed in the making of this scenario.

... It's lovely. ;)

Once there was a Christmas
Where Cthulu was the Claus;
He ated all the presents;
The kids were all, like, "Naws!
You cannot do that, Cthulu,
the presents, they were not yours!"

No goodies for the good kids,
No lumps of coal for bad;
It was a quiet Christmas
for all the kids were sad.

But the Ancient one from beneath the sea,
grinned wildly in the gloom
For sadness, you see, to one such as he
is the veriest bestest boon.

ahahaha, that really should not be as adorable as it is. :D (I agree with [livejournal.com profile] ileliberte, the little splash of red and the very tininess of the hat is the perfect finishing touch to make the whole thing!

Why is that so cute? How did the santa hat get there? And can I print this and put it in my little brother“s bedroom? :D
