Yeah, fine line between ordinary making love/lust, which brings pleasure upon which the White Court feeds, and true love. I think true love for a White Court Vamp is like Daedalus flying too close to the sun, the intensity of it literally burns them.

Are they? There is really no specific data I've seen for instance connecting True Love fenomena which is anathema to lust-feeding whampires with Love as power that empoweres or guides Ammorachius. Maybe they are, maybe not, depends how Jim is versed on fact that English term love meant like 5 different nouns in Greek.

Psychic aura of fidelity and sacrificial love can simply repel lust-feeders just like true courage repells Malvoras.
Still not necessary Celestial power withing swords, more concentrated psychic energy opposed to what whampire is trying to do with your brain, enough to make you immune,.

I didn't specify true love... But love as the power that empowers ammorachius says it all. It's a virtue attached to and empowered by an emotional state or mindset.

But true love is in the same category as the love that empowers Ammorachius. Or rather there is no difference.

is it? How do you know?
I still see no difference between love as an emotion and love as a force of virtue, heck, as a force of creation itself for that matter. After all, it was the sacrifice Lash made, which one can easily define as selfless love, that allowed the creation of Bonnie.
