Directionless fanfic inspiration

A collection of all the random inspiration I get that will never see the light of day. Canadian and born in 2004

[directionlessfanficinspo]

I frequently get random bursts of inspiration for hyper specific or extremely vague fanfic concepts, and I refuse to let them rot away in my brain any longer.

I might turn some of these into real, full length fanfics when my health improves. We'll see!

Feel free to use any of these, but please let me know if you ever post them!

whumpee who’s already feverish, miserable, and completely unable to breathe through their nose. whumper’s brilliant solution is to gag them!!

now every breath is a desperate gasp they can’t fully manage.. their chest heaves, eyes watering as they struggle, writhing helplessly with the gag forcing their airway shut while their clogged nose refuses to cooperate.

let them squirm for a while!!! let them realize just how dependent they are on whumper to nurse them back to health ^_^

Gangnam B Side but with Hybrids

Yoon Gilho as a himalayan mastiff, a livestock guardian with an animal form the size of a bear and a ferocity to match

Anyone he gets close to becomes pack, to be protected with his life. The girls he works with learn to gravitate toward him when they're in danger, know that he will protect them no matter what. They don't have anything to fear from clients when he's around

His ears are attuned to sounds of distress, he can pick them out even in the middle of a club. He instinctively hones in on predators with lazar precision. No matter the circumstances, he can recognize someone with bad intentions

His fighting style focuses on deadly accuracy, downing his opponent as quickly and as permanently possible

When Jaehee dies, Gilho is inconsolable. He failed his one purpose. He failed to protect the most cherished of his flock

I think it's because I'm a STEM major (chemistry to be exact), but I often can't take a lot of lab whump seriously bc I'm just like... that's improper lab procedure. What do you mean they just started cutting into him randomly? What do you MEAN they're testing his pain tolerance? What are they even observing here? What are the levels of this experiment? What is the control? What are the constants? How do they know which factors are effecting their results? They can't publish this shit. Whumper will be laughed out of peer review.

[whump-bunny]

It has come to my attention that not everyone knows proper lab procedure and experimental design! So here's how to write lab whump like a real scientist:

Step 1. Lab cleanliness and Safety

- In all labs, no matter what kind of science you're doing, it's important to keep a clean environment. (This isn't the same as a sterile environment, which you would need if you are doing any kind of major surgery.) Mostly, it's important to keep floors and walkways clear, to prevent tripping hazards.

- In most labs, latex gloves, pants, and close toed shoes are required. Long hair must be put up in a ponytail or bun. Sometimes goggles are necessary, but only when working with heat, pressure, or volatile chemicals. Eating and drinking in the lab is also expressly forbidden.

- In whump context, I would think that ensuring the ahem... test subject, is securely restrained would be of the upmost importance. You don't want your doctors getting bitten or scratched on the job.

Step 2. Experimental Design

- This is something I see a lot of writers misunderstand and it's a pet peeve of mine. Before you can start torturing your Whumpees, first you gotta ask: "What are the scientists trying to figure out?"

- For example, lets imagine a whumpee with very fast healing. The scientists studying them might want to figure out exactly how fast their healing works. So do they just start cutting Whumpee into pieces willy nilly? Nope. They gotta be systematic. Here's how I would design this experiment:

Independent Variable (The thing that you change): The amount of flesh removed from Whumpee.

Dependent Variable (The thing that you measure): The amount of time it takes for Whumpee to heal.

Levels (The different values of the independent variable): 5mm², 10mm², 100mm², etc.

Replicates (The amount of times you repeat each level): Should be at least 3

Control (The data you are comparing to): A normal human's healing speed.

Constants (Things that stay the same between trials): Same part of Whumpee's body, same time of day, same depth of injury, etc.

Cofactors (Other variables that could be potentially affecting your data): Stress levels of Whumpee, any drugs that might be in their system, conscious vs unconscious, hungry, etc.

- With all this in mind, you would run the experiment, with someone recording in a lab notebook real time. (Very important. Lab notebooks can be on actual paper or digital. Most labs use digital these days.)

- Once the experiment is done, you'd examine the data, see if there's any discrepancies or ways that the procedure could be improved, and run another experiment.

- Sometimes, questions answered from one experiment will give rise to even more questions. For example, let's use the healing Whumpee again. Let's say your scientist figured out Whumpee's baseline healing rate. But, they want to know if/how certain drugs affect Whumpee's healing speed. To figure this out, they'd conduct a new experiment, but this time, instead of changing how much flesh is removed, they'd make that a constant, and instead they would change how much of a drug they are injecting into whumpee.

- Experiments are meant to be repetetive and methodical, meaning that your Whumpee may very well have to go through the same thing over and over again, with very minor tweaks here and there.

- Overall, you don't need to worry too much about designing an entire experiment if you just want to write simple lab whump. But, if your whumpers are meant to be official and experienced scientists, then it might be worth it to go the extra mile and show how their scientific brains are working. (And personally, I will always find methodical lab whump more interesting than aimless torture.)

I hope this helped and it wasn't too long. If y'all have any more questions on lab whump and science, feel free to send me an ask. Happy Whumping!

And thank you to @detectingeagle310 for asking me to elaborate lol

...I don't do a lot of lab whump but I can definitely appreciate it -- and aside from being an excellent informative guide, this post now gave me the horridly delightful concept of a whumpee who isn't the *primary* test subject in a "study their powers" setting, they're a regular person used as a control subject to offset the studies done on a character with Abilities.HMMMMMMM.

Caretaker is having a very hard time getting Whumpee to believe that they, as a person, deserve to be treated as a human. Therapy was slow going, and just existing was difficult because they had to fight Whumpee just to take care of them.

So, instead of attacking the problem head on, they go for a different approach. Education. Suddenly, Whumpee’s days were no longer just sitting and staring at a wall, reaffirming their own worthlessness, they were studying. History. Philosophy. Literature.

Caretaker now had a bit less guilt about telling them what to do, they were teaching them, not training them. They could tell them to eat and drink because truthfully, their brain needed it. Same for sleeping.

And Whumpee seemed to pick up some of the subjects, showing genuine interest and something else more meaningful. Caretaker is happy to answer questions.

It’s not easy, but no one expected it to be. But the day Caretaker walks in to see Whumpee slumped atop a stack of books, sobbing, is the day that really changed everything.

[fineiguessimintowhump]

list of some tropes that are very clichés and very lovely:

someone being told to use [name] instead of a title and the name just... becomes the title. Yes, Name. Thank you, Name. Sorry, Name. It doesn't mean anything to them.

Someone with good intentions, shocked at what they're seeing and whumper's delightfulness in humiliating whumpee for them. yes, do show them how obedient your pet is.

assumptions. especially ones that cause massive misunderstanding. whumpee spending weeks in fear bc they assumed something and caretaker another. surprise! you're not dying anytime soon.

"[order] or I'll make you" (and it'll be 1838392 times worse) (:

tests. "they'll never know" except they do because it was a test and you failed. suffer.

panic over minor incidents (i.e. the beloved broken glass.)

terrified whumpee still trying to protect their new friend.

whumper bemused as they listen to whumpee's reasons to not [blank] them right now. it's happening anyway but the babbling is always fun.

scrambling away as someone slowly walks behind. so cute.

whumpee being given options and begging. they'll choose but they still beg.

the exact same torture happening every day until whumpee slowly breaks. and then it continues anyway.

whumpee who shows a bit of defiance. maybe gets some hope about freedom. and is immediately reminded of the reality of it all.

Seungtak can feel the touch of ghosts. They don't realize this, of course. He feigns obliviousness like everyone else, and they walk through him.

Until Cha Youngmin. Until the other three ghosts find out that he can be possessed.

Greedy hands tug on his clothes, thread through his hair. He is surrounded.

They don't know he can feel them, but they know that they can touch him, and that's all that matters

[it-whumping-time]

Whumpee on their knees while Whumper goes behind them and starts petting their head. That's it. That's the post.

Ways for your whumpees to wake up

‼️ Nsfwhump / non-con edition ‼️

—

As their pants are torn down or their clothes are pulled open.

Alone, but restrained in a compromising position, having to wait and hold their breath for hours for what they hope isn’t the inevitable.

Noticing the weight over and around them first, then processing the hands groping them or the knee between their thighs.

Waking up right as something pushes inside them.

Coming to from a very vivid dream only for sleepy pleasure to turn to panic as they realise it isn’t happening in a dream.

Slipping in and out of consciousness as it’s happening, confused and frightened, their memory of it patchy and blurred.

Or only waking up afterwards, piecing together what happened in horror when they see/feel the evidence on their skin.

Still drunk or drugged, stumbling home confused, scared, and sore, feeling the sting of hickeys and bite marks.

In a sleeping whumper’s arms the next morning.

Alternatively, as whumper goes for a round two the next morning.

Blindfolded and held down, but able to feel every light, lingering touch whumper traces along their limbs and down their torso.

[rayloveswhump]

Size and strength difference in Whump (TW Choking) :

Whumper easily man-handling Whumpee into whatever position they need.

Pinning Whumpee's wrists with one hand.

Throwing Whumpee over their shoulder like a sack of potatoes.

Being able to lift Whumpee off the ground with one hand while choking them.

Their hand spanning half of Whumpee's face as they cover Whumpee's mouth.

Running much faster than Whumpee; always able to catch them.

[artistic-freedom-enjoyer]

Whumpee who has been extensively conditioned to react to touch:

a touch on their neck and they immediately become limp and pliant

touch their shoulders and they drop to their knees

touching their wrist will make them drop whatever they're holding

a gentle tug on their clothes and they take them off

some touches make them flinch away

and other touches they lean into

(more nsfw-ish/triggering content below the cut)

touching their lips makes them open their mouth and suck on your fingers

a touch on their thighs and they open their legs

[it-whumping-time]

Defiant Whumpee slowly breaking down

Whumpee still biting and snarling at Whumper but they're now flinching whenever Whumper moves too fast

Refusing to scream but now letting out whimpers

Whumpee glaring at Whumper the whole time as they get on their knees.

Snapping back at Whumper constantly but immediately shutting their mouth when Whumper brings up a specific punishment

Still tugging on Whumper when they're dragged to the torture room but now also going limp when they eventually reach their destination

"For fuck's sake can you just give me a break for one day? Just one fucking day." "Hm, before you would have shouted at me the entire time. Now you want a break? My my, you've changed Whumpee." "Yeah well, I don't like getting beaten. That's all."

Whumpee letting out a loud, desperate, "NO!" when Whumper suggests they should be whipped before they immediately shut their mouth and look away.

[jordanstrophe]

Whumper not needing to restain whumpee in anyway simply because whumpee is bent exhausted.

Whumper just drags them around by the wrist, dumps them on the ground with peace of mind that the little thing is going -no where-

[digital-nova]

Restraints in whump

Strapped to a metal table, staring into the luminescent lights on the ceiling.

Handcuffed to a hospital bed to prevent an escape attempt.

A leather muzzle strapped to the face on account of the subject’s “aggression”.

Ropes binding wrists and ankles to a chair, carving into skin.

A metal collar connected to a chain which can be used to pull the captive around.

Strong arms wrapped around someone until they stop fighting.

Chains around ankles or wrists, being pulled along by captors as they march a prisoner through the streets.

Confined to a straight jacket in a padded cell after lashing out against staff members.

A single chain connected from the ankle to a wall, limiting movement and serving as a constant reminder that there’s no escape.

[jordanstrophe]

Other ways to twist a knife in whump:

Getting shackled/yanked by a broken wrist

Being kept awake by pain when they're exhausted.

Leaving their prison door wide open with their leg shackled to the wall. They can see the hallway, hear footsteps, anyone can come in. They can't come out.

Bleeding out as whumper watches to see how long they can put pressure on their own wound.

[whumpernickelsandwich]

caretaker who thinks whumpee kind of deserved what happened to them because whumpee was a terrible, rotten person. every wince induced by caretaker's rough treatment of their wounds, every moment of peaceful sleep interrupted by nightmares brings caretaker a sick sense of satisfaction. caretaker hates whumpee. but, for some reason, they feel like they have to take care of them, which causes a lot of internal conflict. (yum)

or, an alternate version of this: maybe whumpee has had rumours and stories spread about them being a terrible person, which caretaker believes. as a result, caretaker is always rough with whumpee, carelessly treating them and ignoring every protest of pain.

whumpee deserves it, after all, don't they? so caretaker ignores their pleas and promises that they aren't who everyone says they are. and when caretaker eventually discovers the truth, the guilt consumes them.

[whumpanini]

Thinking about manhandling again (a common pasttime)

Whumpee being forced to their knees in front of Whumper and/or their team

Pushing Whumpee's head down to make them stare at the floor and keeping them in the uncomfortable slumped posture

Whumpee being hauled to their feet by a grip on their upper arm, maybe causing bruising

A hand on the back of Whumpee's neck to force them down, either to the ground or over a surface like a table in order to wrestle them into cuffs

Dragging Whumpee back by the ankle when they try to crawl away from Whumper

Shoving a handcuffed Whumpee forward impatiently

Whumper surprising Whumpee and grabbing them from behind, an arm wrapping around their neck or a hand covering their mouth to keep them quiet

Just

Manhandling~
