Go to my icons, and pick one. I'll tell you (a) what the icon is/means/etc, and (b) one thing I love about the person (or other entity) in that icon. I shall then pick one of your icons for the same.
Rosie Cotton, made by me with one of the iconmakers being passed around some time ago. When I got into LOTR slashfandom a significant number of its members were living down to the awful stereotype of slash fans as hating female characters, especially Rosie Cotton, whom I adore because she gives us the sturdy, occasionally tart-tongued perspective of an ordinary hobbit on the Travellers' having been gone a year and all that happened in their absence (and because she's a female character, a relative rarity in LOTR). So I made myself a Rosie icon and resolved to use it a lot.
Meanwhile, your icons! I simply *must* hear about "u r my bff k??"
hee! the picture base for "u r my bff k??" was taken from a rather bad scan of an old issue of world's finest, probably ganked from s_d, or possibly from a f-lister. for an artist, i can be a horrible picture thief.
anyway, the setup is that superman and batman have had a bit of a falling out (silver age, so it's nothing serious), and clark calls to talk it out/apologize. alfred picks up the phone and tells master bruce that mr. kent is on the line, but bruce (in full batgarb, though aboveground in the manor and deeply cloaked in shadows) says, "tell him... i'm not in." alfred rather reluctantly relays the news to clark, causing a crystalline tear to fall down the superman's cheek, behind the reporter's glasses, and batman... well, the batman clenches one hand into a fist of stymied remorse and frustration, and caresses a photo taken of him and his heroic fellow in happier times with the other. it should be noted that the photo in question is one of many on an ENTIRE WALL of photographs of superman and batman.
the text "u r my bff k??" was just right, considering, and the icon is both my b/s manifesto and a good way to let people on the intarnets know that i like them quite a lot, as is the case here. :)
