Love is Cthulhu
Love is Cthulhu — a Great Old One in the mythos index; cult traces and dream contagion documented under Miskatonic seal. Register ME-1936-B68/8372.
Overview
Expedition register ME-1936-B68/8372 — cross-index under slug `love-is-cthulhu`.
The dossier for Love is Cthulhu opens with a warning we did not write for ornament: several observers who sought direct contact ceased to file reports in languages the University recognises.
Love is Cthulhu belongs to that class of powers the vulgar call gods and the archive calls liabilities — dormant, local, or oceanic, yet never domesticated.
Photographs in the files show fog, double exposure, and emulsion scars that technicians swear were not present when the shutter fell. We keep them because fraud is easier to disprove than the thing that stood where fraud pretends to be.
If the name appears in dreams three nights running, withdraw from the case and request audit.
Description
Scale estimates in the files range from human to architectural, which usually means the observer was not the unit of measure.

The thing called Love is Cthulhu left no consistent footprint; it left expectations broken in the nervous system.
Historical Record
Earliest stack mention is a photocopy of a photocopy of Latin marginalia — chain of custody unsuitable for court, sufficient for caution.
Game manuals and wiki pages from 1980 onward treat the name as franchise furniture; date your citations or fail the course.
European parallels appear in Smith and Howard overlaps; do not merge pantheons without reading both authors in full.
Field Observations
Burn nothing found pulsing; catalogue first, then burn if protocol allows.
If dreams arrive with the weight of memory for places never visited, terminate contact.
What sleeps is not dead; what is catalogued here may be doing neither.
Archive Notes
Protocol slug `love-is-cthulhu`. If the name appears in dreams three nights running, withdraw from the case and request audit.

High Priest of the Great Old Ones
A colossal entity of draconic and cephalopodic aspect, dreaming in death-like slumber beneath the Pacific until the stars align, and when they do, the world will know madness again.
