So it isn't one emotion fits all... To put it loosely as the Mikado sang in the famous operetta, "let the emotion fit the meal, the emotion fit the meal..... ;)

In defense of the OP, I suspect that honest-to-goodness deep love would inspire courage, hope, faith, and anything else that Malvora and Skavis would hate. It may not instantly cause them to be burned like a Raith but, since we know the White Court like weak prey, I bet it would cause them to not target people in a solid relationship. Maybe it's just my sappy side talking but I like to believe that real love inspires courage and hope.

It may be that true love weaks them but not to the extent that it affects Raith. Think gun shot to leg vs the stomach or chest

Not sure about that either, if it would work I think Thomas or Lara would have done it by now... ::)

There's a slight but important nuance here. I don't think true love hurts Skavis or Malvora but leads to or inspires things that do.
