Ciao! It's almost that time of year again, when love is in the air and heart-shaped boxes of chocolate are in every gas station, which means it's almost time for the annual oc valentines challenge!
Once again, we begin on the seventh of February and conclude on the 14th. Except from now on the valentines challenges are gonna be a little different: we're going to focus on a certain theme. This year it's tropes, next year it's AUs or prompts. So take a look at the tropes and choose your oc ship it fits to make a graphic, video, web weave, gifset, drabble, aesthetic, playlist, or drawing for!
Rules
DO NOT copy others edits, if you feel someone has stolen your edits, follow these guidelines!

Everything is up to the creators interpretation, although I have tried to include some examples for help!
Have fun!
Day One: First Love
For the first day of the challenge, we've gotta do first love! Make something for your oc and their first love.
Day Two: Second Chance Romance
For day two, we're looking at the one who got away but came back. This is a ship that we're together at one point, broke up for some reason, and then decided to give their relationship another try.
Day Three: No Second Chances in Romances
On the other hand, just because there was love before doesn't mean there will be love after. This is when you realize the one that got away wasn't "the one" after all. Make something for a ship that were together at one point, broke up for some reason, but decided not to give the relationship another try whether that be because of a new love, unrequited feelings, or any other reason.
Day Four: Friends to Lovers
My personal favorite, when they go from friends to lovers. Their enemies know their worst sides, the heroes know their best, but their friends know both and fall in love with them anyways. Show off an oc ship that were friends before lovers.
Day Five: Enemies to Lovers
There's a thin line between love and hate, and sometimes that line gets crossed. For day four, show us one of your oc ships that this happened to.
Day Six: Almost Love
Sometimes loving someone isn't enough. Whether it's because that love is unrequired, the protagonist is torn apart from their love interest in some way, the ship decide their better off as friends, or they can't get past their differences, we're showing off those couples that could've been but never were.
Day Seven: Forbidden Love
Romeo and Juliet, Maria and Tony, even Coriolanus and Lucy Gray-- all star-crossed lovers who took a chance despite their love being forbidden. Today, we sympathize with those lovers that nobody loves (at least in the canon of their stories).
Day Eight: Give Me Love
Give love to other creators by making them a gift with love by signing up for the valentines ocpotluck challenge!

“The best relationships usually begin unexpectedly.”
Marigold Baggins didn’t think about love, well at least when it came to courting and romantic relationships. She wasn’t considered the most desirable lady in the shire, nor the most respectable. So, Marigold was more focused on exploring and dreaming about an adventure. One day a certain gray wizard ended up granting her wish, but what she didn't expect was to fall in love on that adventure.

↳ Claudia's first kiss happened when she was in the third grade with a boy in her class named Ethan Fitzgerald. The two of them were set up in the school playground by Claudia's childhood best friend Gemma Bailey. Unfortunate for Ethan, Claudia would lose all contact with him, when she moved to Lima, Ohio going into the fifth grade.

“But Morgan,” Caitlin said softly, “what would you tell James if, years down the line, you decided that you don’t want to marry him at all?”
And then it hit her. “Oh,” she whispered. “This isn’t about James, or my career, is it?”
~i care more to be loved (that is not the same as loving)
