Whump Prompts: Found You

I just saw a fantastic post by @whumpingcrow and it got me thinking about when an *almost* recovered, escaped whumpee is found by whumper again. So here's a list of ways for Whumper to say 'found you'.

Whumpee walks into their home, takes off their shoes, hangs up the keys, and goes to flop on the couch. But they see someone is already there. Whumper gives them a big smile, “I was wondering when you’d be back. Let’s go, I already packed up your things.”

Whumpee getting a text from an unknown number: “Tag! You’re it.”

Whumpee picking up their office phone at work and freezing when they hear Whumper’s voice. “Ah, there’s that lovely voice. No, don’t you dare hang up on me. We have some things to discuss.”

Whumpee working tech support and getting randomly connected to Whumper. Freezing up as they recognize their voice, trying to change their own. Not knowing if Whumper knows it’s them and trying to find a way to end the conversation as quickly as possible. Then they hear, “You know, I don’t think I’m going to be able to get this on my own. Maybe I should give you my address and you can come help me. Better yet, give me yours and I’ll come get you.”

Whumper getting a letter and opening it at the mailbox. “I didn’t think I’d find you in a real house, especially not one with such a well-stocked fridge. Congratulations. Really, you’ve outdone yourself. I’m so proud.”

A note on their desk at work in all too-familiar handwriting: “See you soon! <3”

Whumpee coming home to find a bouquet of their favorite flowers on their table. Flowers only Whumper ever got for them.

Getting random text that says, “I can’t say I like the new name. It doesn’t suit you. However, I AM a huge fan of your outfit today. You know red’s my favorite color on you.”

Whumpee having coffee alone at a busy cafe when Whumper slides into the seat across from them. “It’s been so long! You’re looking great.” Whumpee can’t manage to do anything but stare as they hands start shaking.

An exhausted Whumpee driving home from work. They flinch and swerve as they feel a knife at their throat. “Take a deeeeep breath. Just keep driving and do what I say, and you’ll be fine.”

Whumpee just walking down the sidewalk as an arm tugs around their waist. They look up to see Whumper pressed close. They try to stop walking, but Whumper tugs at their hip and they are too afraid to pull away. “Don’t fight me. Just keep walking and this will turn out much better for you.”

Whumpee waking up in the middle of the night to Whumper standing over them. This still happens several times a week, but it’s always just a dream. They take a deep breath, blink hard, and flip on their lamp, trying to make the image fade, but it’s real this time. “You look surprised to see me. Didn’t I tell you I’d always find you? Now get dressed. We’re leaving.”

Whumpee answers to door and freezes when they see Whumper’s smile. “I was in the neighborhood and thought I’d stop by. Aren’t you going to invite me in?”

Whumpee sees Whumper leaning against their car when they get to it in the parking garage. “Shhh shhh. Don’t talk. Don’t move. Don’t scream. I’m already very angry with you. You don’t want to make it worse, do you?” Whunpee just shakes their head in small jerky motions.

Whumpee taking out the trash to the dumpster in the alley after work. Whumper appearing out of nowhere and backing them into a corner. “You can walk to my car and get in the trunk, or I’ll use this and carry you. Your choice.”

Whump Tropes: Against the Wall.

Whumper slowly moving up to Whumpee, eyes burning, as Whumper scrambles backward. The moment of panic when their back hits a wall.

Whumper gripping Whumpee by the collar and slamming them against the wall.

Whumpee pinned, front pressed against the wall, one arm twisted behind their back, the other splayed against the wall for balance.

Whumpee with both hands flat on the wall, using it for support as a whip cracks down on their bare skin, leaving welts and cuts.

Whumpee stumbling forward, one hand on the wall to keep them from falling as theirs legs shake and buckle.

Drywall cracking against their back as Whumper shoves them against the wall.

Whumpee, exhausted and bleeding, sitting against the wall. That moment when they squeeze their eyes shut and let their head fall back against it while they clutch their wound.

Whumpee’s skull cracking against a brick wall. Bonus points if they feel a warm trickle of blood down their neck a few moments later.

Whumpee clumsily sprinting down a pitch black hallway, constantly running into walls. Breaths echoing as they desperately search for an exit before Whumper notices they’re gone.

Whumpee literally glued to the wall (by hair, one hand, their back, etc) and left there knowing the only way to get down is to rip their on skin off / hair out. How long do they wait before biting the bullet so they can sleep? So they can eat?

Whumpee’s legs buckling under them. Trying to get as small as they can by sliding down the wall as Whumper advances. Trying to melt into it an disappear as their breaths become more and more frantic.

Whumpee chained to the wall with manacles set in the stone. Not budging an inch.

Claustrophobic Whumpee desperately pressing themselves into the walls as the room seems to get smaller and smaller, suffocating and crushing them.

Whumpee completely trapped, the wall on one side, Whumper’s body pressed close against theirs on the other. No space to breathe. Every inch of skin smothered.

Whumpee pinned to the wall by a hand on their throat.

Whumpee rhythmically hitting their forehead against the wall, desperately trying to manage their pain.

When a Whumpee is hit HARD. They stumble back, legs barely able to keep up, until they crack against the wall and crumple to the ground.

Whumpee sitting with their ear pressed to the wall, trying to hear what Whumper is doing in the other room. Knowing what will happen if they get caught.

Here it is folks:

My definitive ranking of my least favorite bodies of water! These are ranked from least to most scary (1/10 is okay, 10/10 gives me nightmares). I’m sorry this post is long, I have a lot of thoughts and feelings about this.

The Great Blue Hole, Belize

I’ve been here! I have snorkeled over this thing! It is terrifying! The water around the hole is so shallow you can’t even swim over the coral without bumping it, and then there’s a little slope down, and then it just fucking drops off into the abyss! When you’re over the hole the water temperature drops like 10 degrees and it’s midnight blue even when you’re right by the surface. Anyway. The Great Blue Hole is a massive underwater cave, and its roughly 410 feet deep. Overall, it’s a relatively safe area to swim. It’s a popular tourist attraction and recreational divers can even go down and explore some of the caves. People do die at the Blue Hole, but it is generally from a lack of diving experience rather than anything sinister going on down in the depths. My rating for this one is 1/10 because I’ve been here and although it’s kinda freaky it’s really not that bad.

Lake Baikal, Russia

When I want to give myself a scare I look at the depth diagram of this lake. It’s so deep because it’s not a regular lake, it’s a Rift Valley, A massive crack in the earth’s crust where the continental plates are pulling apart. It’s over 5,000 feet deep and contains one-fifth of all freshwater on Earth. Luckily, its not any more deadly than a normal lake. It just happens to be very, very, freakishly deep. My rating for this lake is a 2/10 because I really hate looking at the depth charts but just looking at the lake itself isn’t that scary.

Jacob’s Well, Texas

This “well” is actually the opening to an underwater cave system. It’s roughly 120 feet deep, surrounded by very shallow water. This area is safe to swim in, but diving into the well can be deadly. The cave system below has false exits and narrow passages, resulting in multiple divers getting trapped and dying. My rating is a 3/10, because although I hate seeing that drop into the abyss it’s a pretty safe place to swim as long as you don’t go down into the cave (which I sure as shit won’t).

The Devil’s Kettle, Minnesota

This is an area in the Brule River where half the river just disappears. It literally falls into a hole and is never seen again. Scientists have dropped in dye, ping pong balls, and other things to try and figure out where it goes, and the things they drop in never resurface. Rating is 4/10 because Sometimes I worry I’m going to fall into it.

Flathead Lake, Montana

Everyone has probably seen this picture accompanied by a description about how this lake is actually hundreds of feet deep but just looks shallow because the water is so clear. If that were the case, this would definitely rank higher, but that claim is mostly bull. Look at the shadow of the raft. If it were hundreds of feet deep, the shadow would look like a tiny speck. Flathead lake does get very deep, but the spot the picture was taken in is fairly shallow. You can’t see the bottom in the deep parts. However, having freakishly clear water means you can see exactly where the sandy bottom drops off into blackness, so this still ranks a 5/10.

The Lower Congo River, multiple countries

Most of the Congo is a pretty normal, if large, River. In the lower section of it, however, lurks a disturbing surprise: massive underwater canyons that plunge down to 720 feet. The fish that live down there resemble cave fish, having no color, no eyes, and special sensory organs to find their way in the dark. These canyons are so sheer that they create massive rapids, wild currents and vortexes that can very easily kill you if you fall in. A solid 6/10, would not go there.

Little Crater Lake, Oregon

On first glance this lake doesn’t look too scary. It ranks this high because I really don’t like the sheer drop off and how clear it is (because it shows you exactly how deep it goes). This lake is about 100 feet across and 45 feet deep, and I strongly feel that this is too deep for such a small lake. Also, the water is freezing, and if you fall into the lake your muscles will seize up and you’ll sink and drown. I don’t like that either. 7/10.

Grand Turk 7,000 ft drop off

No. 8/10. I hate it.

Gulf of Corryvreckan, Scotland

Due to a quirk in the sea floor, there is a permanent whirlpool here. This isn’t one of those things that looks scary but actually won’t hurt you, either. It absolutely will suck you down if you get too close. Scientists threw a mannequin with a depth gauge into it and when it was recovered the gauge showed it went down to over 600 feet. If you fall into this whirlpool you will die. 9/10 because this seems like something that should only be in movies.

The Bolton Strid, England

This looks like an adorable little creek in the English countryside but it’s not. Its really not. Statistically speaking, this is the most deadly body of water in the world. It has a 100% mortality rate. There is no recorded case of anyone falling into this river and coming out alive. This is because, a little ways upstream, this isn’t a cute little creek. It’s the River Wharfe, a river approximately 30 feet wide. This river is forced through a tiny crack in the earth, essentially turning it on its side. Now, instead of being 30 feet wide and 6 feet deep, it’s 6 feet wide and 30 feet deep (estimated, because no one actually knows how deep the Strid is). The currents are deadly fast. The banks are extremely undercut and the river has created caves, tunnels and holes for things (like bodies) to get trapped in. The innocent appearance of the Strid makes this place a death trap, because people assume it’s only knee-deep and step in to never be seen again. I hate this river. I have nightmares about it. I will never go to England just because I don’t want to be in the same country as this people-swallowing stream. 10/10, I live in constant fear of this place.

Honorable mention: The Quarry, Pennsylvania

I don’t know if that’s it’s actual name. This lake gets an honorable mention not because it’s particularly deep or dangerous, but it’s where I almost drowned during a scuba diving accident.

Edit: I’ve looked up the name of the quarry, it’s called Crusty’s Quarry and is privately owned and only used for training purposes, not recreational diving.

[wildernessflavoredjellybean-dea]

So I just found this but there was a dude who was trying to get depth measurements on the Bolton Strid and he got some interestingly terrifying results. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=uJFQXT6PIP8

[gaze-into-whump]

“I have a daughter!” he gasped.

V twisted the knife. “And your death will add purpose to her life. Unlike you, she will not lounge in ill gained power, growing complacent in her lack of struggle. Instead she will swear vengeance. Or maybe she’ll just thank me.”

What A Shame

This is totally inspired by something @pythagoreanwhump said, hope you enjoy this Rem ;)

“Look at them,” his captor demanded, a cry of pain resonating across the room as she twisted the knife. “Their pain is all your doing. Do you have no mercy for this innocent victim of your stubbornness?”

The man raised his head and slowly opened his eyes. The figure in front of him trembled, blood dripping from their mangled body, lips quivering with silent pleas. He looked at them just for a moment, and they could see the barest glimpse of kindness in his quiet gaze.

“They’re going to die soon,” he said calmly. “It’s a shame. How many bodies will it take for you to understand that I don’t plan to talk?”

He watched their breathing quicken at the thought. It wasn’t what they hoped for, but it was the greatest mercy they would get. And though he didn’t envy their position, he hoped they’d fine some comfort in the certainty of their fate.

“Please-” they began, voice hoarse and weak with pain. “Just g-give them something. Please. I can’t. Just make it stop.” They looked right at him then, with tears pooling in their eyes.

“Your people have fooled themselves into thinking that you are better than us. That you are just and righteous in your fight,” his captor snarled. “But all I see is a man willing to kill, to sacrifice an innocent life for a worthless cause.” She yanked the knife out sharply, blood pooling on the floor.

“It is you who has brought an innocent life into this fight,” the man said softly in response. “Now we can share the rotten fruits of your labour. Don’t stain my hands with the blood you’ve spilled.”

Their trembling grew weaker as the puddle of crimson on the floor grew larger. They slumped on the cold concrete, gasping and choking, the finale of a performance shown time and time before. The man watched them. The woman watched the man. Then she dragged their body out the door, letting it close behind her with a clang.

well if u dont like me why do the shadowy shapes in the forest call my name with your voice

[femmeharlequin-deactivated20240]

I wanna like Tangled but it’s hard to get over the fact that they went “hm our villain stole a baby to maintain her youth… let’s make her Jewish coded :)” and the only people who spoke up about it were other Jews everyone else is like “it’s just a movie who cares if she has curly black hair and a Jewish nose that gets more pronounced and hooked when she’s revealed to be evil”

[strawbabywine]

I thought she was Italian

[femmeharlequin-deactivated20240]

Really?

[magnetothemagnificent]

All the way down to her Germanic-sounding name (Gothel), I'm surprised (not really) that it's only Jews who notice this. Like, yes, here's this Jewish-coded character who kidnaps a child with noticeably "Aryan" features in order to maintain her youth (literally this is Blood Libel), and yet people see no issue at all like....

[femmessias]

honest question: if non-jewish people don‘t identify this as being apparently jewish-coded, is it problematic? like if non-jewish people don‘t make the connection it would be a rly bad try at anti-semitic propaganda.

[honeygordo]

It's not "apparently" Jewish coded it is. And yes it's bad even if gentiles don't look at Gothel and recognize her as a Jewish woman because it can still ingrain a certain idea in your mind about what people who look like her are like.

Goyishe kids probably aren't going to look at her and recognize her Jewish features as Jewish, but they'll recognize her features and the features of other Jewish coded villains in the faces of real life Jewish people. That's what propaganda is. It's not in your face, it's subconscious

[postmodernmulticoloredcloak]

i’m not even jewish and i was pretty horrified when i watched the movie... not recognizing blatant anti-jewish imagery in something doesn’t make the thing okay, it’s in fact worse. i think we all should have the mental equipment to recognize these things. we can’t just prounce around in blissful ignorance while jewish people just discuss the same things over and over with each other.

i remember i once made a post about the way physical features are used to say something about characters’ personalities in the harry potter books and it’s didn’t get much positive response (i probably made the post before everyone decided they hated the author). people went to defend the books by arguing that, for instance, kids don’t know about the cultural significance of, say, hooked noses and olive skin. but that makes it worse. kids will learn to associate oily dark hair and hooked noses to unpleasant, shifty people whose trustworthiness is always under question, and also fatness to greedy bullies, and so on. those kids will be adults who will be exposed to more of these things and will make associations between those traits and groups of people.

i was also told that snape is described like that not because rowling wanted to make a charicature of a certain type of person, but because those traits are well-established tropes in children’s literature so children will be familiar with them. tHAT’S EXACTLY THE PROBLEM???

a piece of media doesn’t exist in a vacuum, our society for centuries has woven meanings together. i think we have a moral duty to be able to recognize them. especially since the jewish-coding is not exactly a recent phenomenon.
