Round 35: Lots of Love

[abyss_valkyrie]

Hello,everybody! For this month we're going with the theme of love.

THEME
When we say love, we really mean all kinds. The Greeks had various words for specific types of loves and that's what your icons are going to be showcasing for this round.
For this round there are SIX types to choose from: Eros, Ludus, Philia, Storge, Agape & Philautia. Check under the cut for inspo.
You can create icons based on a particular love or mix and match however you like.
Bonus: Honour the Black History Month in your icons.

~❤~Eros~❤~
Romantic, passionate, fiery love. It is centered around the physical aspect of love.It needs to be balanced by other forms of love so as not to consume oneself.

~❤~Ludus~❤~
Playful, flirty love. It is considered as love without commitment but for our challenge we're willing to take this literally too. :D

~❤~Philia~❤~
Philia is sometimes considered the highest form of love as it is shared between equals. True friendship, bond, brotherhood, affection and loyalty-all of that!Philia is also what is seen among couples who have been together for a long time.

~❤~Storge~❤~
Storge is the protective, kinship based love experienced among family. Siblings, a pet owner's love for their pet, found family etc.

~❤~Agape~❤~
Agape is a selfless, universal, spiritual love for God, nature, strangers-one without expectations of being loved in return.Think characters with empathy and compassion. Or even Yurio's agape skating in Yuri on ice!

~❤~Philautia~❤~
Philautia or self-care was and is considered as one of the most important forms of love. In order to love others we must first care about and love ourselves. Is reading a form of self care?Then icon a stock image or a character reading. Is it a spa day? Or resting, meditating?
