I should point out that neither of the two pictures were drawn by me, for the first, credit goes to our very own FelCandy* & the second is sourced from here: https://mobile.twitter.com/ralfmelevo6/status/1039662720491171840

*Here's a link to more of her art: https://www.17thshard.com/forum/topic/74435-fels-sketchbook-spoilers/

Okay, first off, I love how this thread is almost entirely positivity. Great thread. Overload of cuteness. 

Second, axehounds have been brought up, but so far no one’s stated them as the cutest - AND HELLO, THEY’RE ADORABLE :lol:

They're not even the cutest thing on Roshar, much less in the whole cosmere.

Larkins are definitely adorable too, but we don’t have art of them - so the cutest image is axehounds. (Chull come a close second.)

(Larkins still win the thread though. Also, I forgot Elhokar had a paperweight made of a crystal-encased larkin corpse. Why.)

Giant bugs?  To each their own of course but I just don't see it.

Because a larkin died and they wanted to preserve the body and had a soulcaster?

Which reminds me, could Vin qualify for Cutest thing in the Cosmere?

Potentially.  I am sure Elend would think so.

They’re...not bugs? They have crustacean features, but they’re their own species. Everything about them resembles a mammal much more than an insect, though of course they’re neither. Axehounds aren’t at all bugs though :D

I’d have to go with nightblood, for he’s so hopeless

”I must destroy evil. It was what I was made to do.”

(pause)

”hey Vasher, what is evil”

and with Szeth he’s seen as something holy and he’s just as helpless.

 

I would also say rock bowing to syl and syl taking the worship full on. I love the “why don’t other people do this? I deserve to be a god.” Stuff too.

Yeah but why. Why preserve the larkin

Because it is super valuable?

At least if you're going to do that put it somewhere no one would turn it into a paperweight!

Shallan would never do that.  However rich people do stupid things.

Not dead! I think that would more make sure you'd never be able to acquire another one.

Okay, fair enough, rich people do indeed do stupid things.

One of the Cosmere's great constants.

But why were they were so valuable dead? There's no way the Investiture-eating continues post-mortem.

Because they were incredibly rare and even considered to be extinct. And even having the corpse of a near mythical creature would elevate social status somewhat. Therefore, Larkins are valuable.

I must also say that the mandras with their many little nubblets as legs are also pretty darn cute. I mean, they look like those fuzzy little caterpillars! And they’re manifestations of luck (I think)! Ya can’t get much cuter than that, I must say.

and the anticipation spren. They happily follow anyone around with their little toung wobblers than manifest in the physical realm. They’re also cute!
