How exactly did you come up with this?  Objectively speaking, it just looks like a random drawing with the name CS Lewis on it.  Lewis was a Christian intellectual and this looks much too antithetical, as in a delinquent who better not get his (or her, I seriously can't tell the sex) hands on a Death Note.  The Fate series' interpretations, from a non-fan's viewpoint, look a tad off the mark, yet are forgivable because they are looking so far in history.  However, CS Lewis died on the same exact day as John F. Kennedy, so we already have more recent acknowledgement of his real look and personality, like _Mere Christianity_ and _The Four Loves_ (been meaning to read that one).

And please don't play the subjectivity card.  That's just another Chewbacca Defense to avoid logical debate.  I would really like to know what thought process you put in to make this.  Perhaps this is not a delinquent and I'm making the same mistake a lot of opponents made of Jack (he went by "Jack" because his middle name was "Staples") before making the wrong judgement.

May the Lord be with you,

Now I'm curious as to why you seem so offended by the depiction. It certainly isn't accurate to how, by what photographs suggest, Lewis actually looked like, but a younger Lewis might be what you would consider a delinquent. Prior to his conversion, Lewis spent quite a lot of time as an atheist, and some of his very early writing (cf. "Spirits in Bondage") reflects this. From a young age, he also disliked overly-ritualised religion, and showed an especial dislike of Catholicism in his early years, and by extension, High Church Anglicanism. While it is, perhaps, a bit of a stretch, I suppose this youthful, more rebellious Lewis, could be what they were trying to depict.

That's certainly an interesting interpretation of Lewis...

Why on Earth did you send this to me? I didn't draw the thing, I merely commented that I found it an unusual interpretation myself.

Sorry, I meant to comment the illustrator, not you.  My mistake.  😞

If you've seen how the Fate franchise interpreted King Arthur, Oda Nobunaga, Jack the Ripper, etc.. This is nothing new XD

I admit I know next-to nothing about that, but now, I can only imagine it's freaksomely bizarre.
