Title: Jolly Old St. Jensen Ackles (reblog on )
Pairing: Jared Padalecki/Jensen Ackles
Rating: G
Medium: Photoshop CS6
Artist Notes: To the delightful wetsammy for this year's spn_j2_xmas. I used your prompt, Holiday AU where Jensen is forced for some reason to work as a grumpy department-store Santa and Jared is his overly eager elf helper.. I hope you enjoy and have a wonderful Christmas. ♥♥♥

*Thanks to the always lovely and helpful quickreaver for the look-see-over!

Bwhahahah that's awesome - Jensen's face! The bawling kid! Jared looking a bit apologetic and long suffering... Now I really want someone to write the story to go with this... Lovely!

Why thank you, children are SO FREAKING DIFFICULT TO DRAW! :P

This couldn't be any more delightful!!! I love grumpy Jensen with that fake beard, and jolly elf Jared with his pointy ears and perfect expressions!!! And the screaming baby just tops it all off. This is crammed with festive joy, and I adore it.

Beautifully done and a perfect take on the prompt! Thank you for sharing :)

[dephigravity.livejournal.com]

Aww, thank you. Grumpy Jensen is my jam, even with a fake beard and screaming child. :P

That is one of the most adorable things I've seen in a long time :)

[dephigravity.livejournal.com]

D'aww, thanks!

[beelikej.livejournal.com]

Heehee, poor suffering Santa Jensen (I bet Jared promised to reward him afterwards;) I adore Jared's elf ear and his hair looks so gooooood. (Not to mention Santa's beard, good job on that!)
Kudos for the screaming kid, the cute reindeer hat and - oh my goodness- that crinkled shirt (excellent drawingskills).

[dephigravity.livejournal.com]

This couldn't be any more ADORABLE!! Jensen's and Jared's faces are perfection and that crying baby is hilarious, right down to it's reindeer hat. Thanks for bringing that prompt to life in such a cute way. I couldn't have asked for more. You made my holidays!

I love this so fucking much!! And elf!Jared is brilliant too, seriously!! I cannot tell you how much squee this fills me with, just UGH!! YOU ROCK!! *nods* ♥♥

[dephigravity.livejournal.com]

:D Grumpy Jensen is the best Jensen, for sure. Thank you, my dear. ♥

[cherie-morte.livejournal.com]

LMAO, OH GOD, I CAN HEAR THE SOUND THAT CHILD IS MAKING. POOR JENSEN. I love how you can tell he is having none of this, even through the beard and glasses. SoooOOoOoOoOoOooOooooOOOOO GRUMPPPYYYYY.

And then Jared, impervious to all terrible things. I love his wee lil smileeee. He's going to have to share some of that holiday cheer with poor grumpy Santa in the mall's supply closet during their lunch hour. To save Christmas. *nods*

[dephigravity.livejournal.com]

SCREAMING KIDS!!!!!!!!!!!! Never again, Cherie. NEVEH! :P Though they do bring out the best inner Jensen, so...

YOUR HEADCANON IS APPROVED BY UNANIMOUS APPROVAL!

Thank you!

[deanshot1]

Fantastic. Everything about that picture is just amazing.
I can see how grumpy Jensen is even with the fake beard and I can almost hear the child screaming in my ear never mind Jensen. Jared is adorable also with his little smirk because he knows he'll have to cheer Santa!Jensen up later.

Thanks for sharing.

*hugs*

Thank you so much, the coloring was actually my favorite part! :D

[tebtosca.livejournal.com]

Would it be totally JC-like of me to point out my fave part is the way Jared's biceps are bulging out of that elf costume? :D

This is adorable, I love grumpy Jensen, and Jared, the tallest elf in - ever!

And the squirmy, screamy baby is just the cherry on the cake.

Wonderful work :D

[dephigravity.livejournal.com]

Lets face it, Jared would make a perfect Buddy from Elf elf! :D

Thank you!

[meus_venator]

I'm not sure Jensen has the temperament for this, but I do love that he has a doting elf there to help smooth the ruffled feathers. : ) And Jared looks good in pointed ears!

[dephigravity.livejournal.com]

Thank you, I'm glad you think so. ( I too am Jensen... no Santa duty for me!)

[tsuki-no-bara.livejournal.com]

everything about this is adorable! even jensen's grumpyface. (and with that screaming kid on his lap, no wonder he's cranky.) i'm a huge fan of jensen with glasses, so the santa specs are an especially nice touch.

[dephigravity.livejournal.com]

Thank you! JENSEN (and Jared for that matter) IN GLASSES IS LIFE! Thank you so much, and sorry for the late reply.

[masja-17.livejournal.com]

Awesome! Grumpy Jensen, smirking Jared and that kid! LOL! I'll bet Jared will have to do something during a break! ;)

♡

[dephigravity.livejournal.com]

Thank you! I'm sure Jared has his ways of bringing a smile back to Jensen's face. ;)
