Yes, boys and girls, it’s that time of the year again. A time for presents, and family, and snowdrifts, and tentacles. So here, just in time for solstice, is your Cthulhu podcast and Christmas Squid Roundup. That’s what you call a group of Deep Ones, you know, a pod. And when they’re also featured players in the solstice pageant, they’re obviously a …

can you see it coming?

pod…cast.

And here are your lyrics:

LYRICS

II’ll have a blue solstice, Cthulhu.
I’ll be so blue thinking what you’ll do.
Sacrifices of red on the blue open sea
Won’t mean a thing until you’re here with me.

Until your blue nightmares awake me
And all my blue angels forsake me
You’ll be down in your tomb,
In cyclopean gloom
And I’ll have a blue, blue blue blue solstice.

(spoken) Oh Cthulhu, baby, c’mon up out of that tomb. I can’t stop thinking about your huge flabby claws, them little wings of yours, that grotesque scaly body, and them big ol’ tentacles wrapped around me. Oh darlin’, I can’t go on without you.

You’ll be down in your tomb
In cyclopean gloom
And I’ll have a blue, blue blue blue solstice.

quiz: will you be one of Cthulhu’s chosen ones?

Posted on by

I think we all know raincoaster’s result without bothering to look, don’t we?


Could You Be One Of Cthulhu’s Chosen?


You are clearly a being of exceptional wisdom and insight on the greater meaningless and value-less universe for the mark of Cthulhu burns brightly upon your aura. Take heed for when the stars are right and the terrible city of R’Lyeh rises again from the sea you must answer the call of Dread Cthulhu, taking your place beneath the Old One as he revels across the world ravening for delight. Till such time you would do well to please Cthulhu, extracting from the world your own pleasures in decadent and boisterous exploits.
Take this quiz!
