Normal Halloween Fantasy World W/ Vampires & Monsters & All That Good Jazz But The Skeletons Are Just

Whump Prompt #571

The whumpee gets laid up for a while. It takes them forever to become coherent enough to leave the hospital, and even then they have a long recovery ahead of them.

During this time, perhaps it began when the whumpee is still delirious on painkillers, a character starts watching a TV show in their room while they keep vigil.

Perhaps this character is their best friend, maybe it’s someone they don’t necessarily get on well with. Maybe is the oldest or the youngest, but either way they begin to bond over the show. Perhaps it’s the thing that brings the whumpee back to reality, as through a haze of painkillers they mutter and offhand comment about the plot or characters:

“Who does he think he is.” A mumbles beneath an oxygen mask, “cheating bastard…”

The two characters continue to watch this show, and others if they finish it quickly. They bond over it so much, other characters have entered the room to A (smothered by blankets because B is convinced A still needs coddling) leaning against B as they argue/cry/laugh over the antics on screen.

Whump without a whumper

What happened to regular old whump? Here are some scenarios for prompts I kinda miss

Sickfics. Someone with pneumonia or a stomach flu. Give me glazed eyes and chills and being weak from not being able to keep anything down. Their caretaker being run into the ground trying to take care of them.

Injured by a nameless assailant. Shot from afar by rebels, mugged in the night, hurt in a hit in run. The struggling walk or run back to their loved ones and catching them when they can’t stay upright anymore. Being put to bed and finally feeling safe.

Clumsiness and random accidents. Falling down the stairs, fainting in the shower bc of exhaustion after a trying day (combo these with illness for mega bonus points), someone else falling on them.

Being hurt by a tough loved one who gets surprised or has traumatic flashbacks. Trying to hide it, being found out. The guilt!! The black eyes! Please.

Chronic illness or mental illness. I’m not trying to trivialize these - a lot of the great fics I’ve read seem to come from people who let out their own experiences on characters. Putting up with it, being strong but breaking down, trying to hide it, bad days.

Emotional h/c. Loneliness, guilt, bad memories being brought up at inopportune times and having to hide it until they have a second to breathe. Caretaker trying to comfort them once they realize, feeling guilty for not realizing, and eventually breaking through to them. Making a little progress that gives us hope.

Caught in bad weather. Hypothermia, heat exhaustion, deserts and rain and snowstorms. Complaining and being ignored until they faint.

Give me it all. Not that I don’t love torture fics (that sounds straight up sadistic) but I long for the simpler times. The magic writers made out of the everyday, that still tug at your heartstrings.

me: wow this character is really hot

me: i wonder what they would look like beaten up and bruised and shackled and with a head injury and confused and scared and helpless

Car whump

Like when your Whumper needs to get his Whumpee to a… secondary location.

Whumpee sitting in the front seat 

Perhaps cuffed to the door.

Whumper humming/singing along to the radio as they drive

Leather gloves on the gear stick

Leather gloves on the steering wheel, a finger lightly tapping it

Whumper doing that arm over the back of the seat thing when he puts the car in reverse

Whumper trying to make small talk, either failing spectacularly or they just can’t shut the hell up

Whumpee in the back

Whumper casting glances in the mirror

Adjusting the mirror so he can make direct eyecontact

Whumpee lying across the seats, their hands behind their back

Two 👏 Whumpers 👏 gloating, casting taunting glances and smirks back

Whumpee being forced to drive

There’s the classic of course, Whumpee getting into their car, adjusting the mirror and suddenly seeing Whumper in the backseat

“Drive.”

Or maybe Whumpee is greeted with a knife to the throat

Back 👏 seat 👏 driving 👏 (bonus points if Whumpee’s grinding their teeth and is seriously considering driving into a tree)

How about Whumper in the front seat?

Maybe some unwanted contact, a (gloved?) hand on their knee, or on Whumpee’s hand as they shift gears 

Whumpee in the trunk

I mean, that’s it really. Put your Whumpee in the trunk. Cuff ‘em, gag ‘em, put ‘em in the trunk.

For the truly mad Whumpers:

Driving in the opposite lane with a truck approaching and refusing to changes lanes until Whumpee obeys

“When was the last time you ate??”

“That’s none of your business.”

“Well I’m making it my business!”

Tranquilliser darts??

😳😳😳

Idk man but theres the initial pain of getting hit, the confusion or panic, the slow stumbling collapse to the ground.

Then your antagonist waltzes on over all smug and scoops them up like a sack of potatoes. Yeah❤️

Character A being the stoic leader, refusing to negotiate with the enemy side. But as soon as Character B is put in danger, A folds.
