Sunshine 2022: Prompt Two
Check out the Master List to find links to all of the 2022 challenge posts. Remember that there is no official deadline, so feel free to join in at any time or go back and do any prompts you've missed!
If you are inspired to answer with art, vid, or other media, we’d love for you to share what you created. If you create any fanworks, feel free to add them to our AO3 Collection.
Prompt 2: Rose Quartz
Soft pink in color, Rose Quartz has been a popular stone since as far back as 800-600 BCE. Today, as in the past, it’s most associated with love, compassion, and healing in all its forms both towards oneself and others. In the Greek myths it’s mentioned at least twice: once where Eros is said to have brought it to man to inspire love, and again in the story of Aphrodite and Adonis where it came to represent love triumphant. It’s a stone of beauty and sentiment and will likely be favored for years to come.
Bonus Prompt: Topaz
Please feel free to respond in whichever way comes naturally to you, be it thoughts that you share or a work that you create. If you’d like a more specific idea to kick things off: share a photograph or artwork that reminds you of the Rose Quartz theme.
