chronic stress + memory issues

Not gonna speak on traumatic memory loss/memory repression because I don't have that, but here's some fun things that could happen to your whumpee's memory if they're just really fucking stressed:

Everything feels years ago. Yesterday? Would not be able to tell you that happened 24 hours ago. I thought it was last year.

In a similar vein, I thought that happened yesterday but no it happened in 2023.

Mixing up the order of events. You remember it all, it's just scrambled.

Coming up with nothing unless someone prompts a memory.

Thinking things that happened this morning happened yesterday or some other time in the past because anything more than 5 minutes ago gets lost in time.

Having to piece your week together like a puzzle. "I did A and Z, so at some point I must have done L, wait no I did D first, then I did... hang on that isn't right". It's not easy and takes way too much thinking. You will likely just give up.

The classics: walking into a room and forgetting why, picking up your phone to check the time and doing everything but that, starting a sentence and going off on a tangent only to never return to your original point.

No sense of time.

Trying to recall things for a class or exam won't happen. It goes in your head once, leaves, and never returns.

You'll know half-facts and out-of-context pieces of information with no surrounding context to help you know why you know this or figure out if you've just made it up.

It becomes very easy to convince yourself that people you see regularly (your neighbour, a shopkeeper etc) have had involvement in your life or personality traits you may have just made up because you can't remember why you think that about them, or vice versa- they do have these traits or shared history with you and you've convinced yourself it's not real because you don't remember where it originated.

Old memories you do have are more likely to be memories of recently looking at a photograph of the event rather than the event itself.

Old memories are hazy and few enough it's easy to convince yourself they may never have happened.

Old memories do not feel like they belong to you. They don't belong to anyone else, either. They're just images and facts in your head.

Whole years will feel like they're missing. Major friendship changes, periods of work or school. You won't realise they're gone until you try to look for them and come up empty handed.

The way certain resigned characters with a blade to their throat tilt their head back and close their eyes gets me every time.

[yougivemewhumperflies]

Hero walked into the apartment, and the first thing they saw was Villain lying face down on the floor.

“Villain?!” They asked, immediately crouching beside him. Villain’s eyes fluttered blearily and released a soft moan. A sheen of sweat covered his forehead, and Hero could feel the heat radiating off him. “What-what happened? Are you hurt? Sick?” They pressed the back of their palm to his forehead—hot.

“Mmm yeah,” Villain mumbled. Hard to understand with his cheek mashed against the floor. “Sick. Thought you’d…help.”

“Of course I’ll help,” Hero answered indignantly, moving their hand to rub circles of his back. “But why are you on the floor and not, like, the couch?”

“Fell. ‘Sss not bad,” he slurred back, eyelids drifting closed. “Soft rug. Good job.”

Shaking their head, Hero gently rolled Villain over and scooped him into their arms, wincing at how hot he was.

Villain immediately leaned into them. “Oh. This is-this is nice! …Kinda dizzy, but…beats…walking.”

It was a short trip to Hero’s bedroom, and they didn’t hesitate to put Villain on their bed. Villain sighed, slumping gratefully into the soft mattress and pillow. “So…nice,” they murmured.

“Rest now,” Hero whispered. They felt Villain’s forehead again, smoothing back some hair. “You’re in good hands.”

[sickfictropes]

yes "i'm fine" denial is amazing, but where's the love for "I don't know?"

"are you going to faint?" "do you have a fever?" "how long has this been going on?"

idk just try her out, walk around the store and see if she fits :)

Especially when Whumpee has to pause and think about it for a couple seconds

Whump Idea- Drugging Villain for their own good

1. Villain doesn't trust Hero, yet they are hurt and not sleeping due to the fact about being scared. But when Hero presents them the needle, they freak out. If they sleep, Hero could do who knows what with them. As they try to fend off any attack with said daunting needle, Hero gets them with it. They slump forward, crying, as Hero holds them.

Or alternative, Hero doesn't comfort them and forces Villain to endure their fear as unconsciousness looms over them.

2. Villain has been running and hiding for weeks, neglecting sleep and food. The heroes are getting tired as well and very agitated. Their intial plan was to help Villain with their sickness, but it quickly escalated. The team ends having to use a tranq gun to capture and bring Villain to safety.

3. Villain is in so much agony that even sleep won't take them. They writhe on the couch, table, bed as the caretaker cleans their wounds. Eventually, the distress and delirium gets to much that the caretaker to forced to give them a sedative.

4. Villain needs surgery, but of course the procedure is done at Hero's base. They prep the IV as Villain watches in anticipation as the anesthesia slips into their veins. Just as the world blinks out of existence, Hero squeezes their hand.

5. Villain is about to face off the greatest evil that not even Supervillain can defeat. Supervillain watches as Villain trains and preps for the fight, but when the day comes, their worry gets too great. They sneak up behind Villain and plunge the needle into their neck. They fall into Supervillain's grip. When they are restrained to the bed, Supervillain faces off instead.

6. Civilian finds a dying Villain. They crouch down next to them to scoop them up and bring them home. Safe at last, the Villain sighs and asks quietly, "make it easier, please." The civilian nods and slips the needle into their vein, granting Villain a pain free death.

[for-the-ouchies]

A defeated enemy bound and forced to kneel in the centre of the camp/base, left like that until someone decides what to do with them, all too aware of the many hostile eyes on them.

[ifyhfyr]

Give me a caretaker and whumpee duo that hated eachother originally but come to like eachother due to mutual hating for whumper.

Like I hate Whumper, you hate Whumper, so I guess we’ll form a temporary team to bring that loser down then go our seperate ways

But they NEVER go their seperate ways

[yougivemewhumperflies]

Accidental trauma reveal my love. When friends or enemies unintentionally discover Whumpee’s tragic background. For instance

The classic nightmare scene. Whumpee has never slept with people close by for this very reason. Unfortunately, they don’t have a choice this time, and they do, in fact, scream (or cry) in their sleep, in front of someone/everyone.

The person behind the trauma suddenly reappearing in Whumpee’s life. Whumpee losing it—running away, hiding, refusing to engage with anyone. Or even better, trying so hard to pretend they’re okay until they just. Shatter.

Truth serums, spells, and items. Flippantly asking Villain, “Why do you keep doing this?” only to get a gut-wrenching answer in return.

The mind probe. Whumpee is sick/unconscious, and someone does the magical mind probe (I swear this comes up so much in media) to figure out what’s wrong and stumbles on Whumpee’s tragic past.

Teammates unknowingly triggering Whumpee for a while until Whumpee finally just screams it out. The looks of horror.

Also shout out to intentional trauma reveals. For trusting the found family enough to tell them the things that hurt the most.

Any other tropey goodness that results in Whumpee finally getting the comfort they deserve.

[rooksshinies]

Whumpee who after they’re rescued, disassociates all the time. Their mind drifts away while eating breakfast, and Caretaker has to gently nudge them, remind them where they are, that it’s okay— they don’t need to do that here. It’s safe right now, and it will be forever, yeah?

Here's a very simple and not at all exhaustive commission sheet, because I don't have any money and could use some! If you want a whumpy (or otherwise) art commission I am open and available!

(p.s. ignore the "won't draw gore" thing, I can't update this rn and it's a little old)

Examples of my art under the cut, pricing in alt text

Sketches and lineart are the same price, just let me know which you'd like if you pick that.

Redemptions arcs that are not redemption = death

Redemption by amnesia - the villain forgetting their crimes. They begin living a normal life, or possibly even forge a new path of virtue. They don’t even understand why the heroes keep so close to them, why everyone gives them dirty looks. Or maybe they were told their past and have to live with a guilt they can’t quite fully feel.

Redemption by empathetic experience - maybe the villain was young when they started down the wrong path. They learned the worst from evil mentors/parents, and it isn’t until they have an experience that shatters their paradigm that they realize they can/should be different. Usually these experiences humanize the people around the villain, and villain, feeling empathy, decides to change.

Redemption by de-aging - the villain reverting back to a younger age. Even if they remember what they’ve done, the heroes would likely refuse to kill them. And the younger they are, the less likely they’d face any punishment.

Redemption by whump - the villain facing unbalanced retribution. Their torture is too much for the heroes to bear. “They don’t deserve this.” The villain being taken care of in a way that changes their whole relationship with the heroes. They can’t go back to living the way they did before.

Redemption by “death” - the villain being sentenced to death and actually dying. By some means, magical or scientific, they come back to life. They technically satisfied the sentence and can carry on living, however that may go. Or it was done in secret, and they get a second chance living in anonymity.

Redemption by common enemy - “The enemy of my enemy is my friend.” The villain and hero team up to stop a bigger, worse threat. Even though villain has done terrible things in the past, the hero can’t kill or hurt them now, not right after they helped.

Redemption by family - nothing is more humanizing than a villain that cares about their family (and vice versa), and the hero can’t let villain die while their child is watching. Also looks like a brother, a mother stepping in when villain needs them most. Advocating for them, believing in them when no one else would.

caretaker takes their sweater off. it's chilly, but not chilly enough to warrant the way whumpee is trembling so violently.

they take a step towards whumpee, trying to appear as non-threatening as possible. whumpee seems to freeze for a second, the line of their posture tense and coiled— an attempt to shrink within oneself, bracing for something and hiding from something alike.

caretaker gently pulls the sweater over whumpee's head, guiding their stick-thin arms into the soft fabric as whumpee stays still and quiet throughout the process, looking at them with huge, unblinking eyes.

"there," caretaker says, gently patting whumpee on their arms as they step away. "better?"

whumpee blinks. a weak protest, "you need that," as they fidget with the sleeves. they can't bring themself to remove it. it's soft and filled with cartaker's warmth.

caretaker shakes their head, carding their fingers through whumpee's hair in an attempt to straighten it back.

"not more than you."

[hurtwithallthecomfort]

I can’t tell which I like more: mechanical whumpees being mistaken for humans or human whumpees being mistaken for robots.

Living Weapon Whumpee is a highly efficient killer. Obedient and emotionless to an almost uncanny degree. It makes sense that the team assumed they were anything but human.

Or, perhaps Handler lied to them, aware that the team (softer than most in the business) wouldn’t take kindly just yet to finding out how the organisation truly worked.

Because of this, nobody on the team particularly cares for Weapon. It’s an unthinking robot, nobody’ll mind if someone is slightly rude to it or if they let it take as many hits as necessary for the mission.

But then it bleeds.

Bleeds like a robot certainly shouldn’t, chokes on the scarlet like it needs oxygen to breathe. And that terrifies the entire team.

The weapon clearly influenced by Handler to obey anything mindlessly, the weapon they’ve been letting take blows like it can easily be replaced, the weapon they’ve been harshly ordering around, has been a thinking, feeling human this whole time.

Caretaker and the team are disgusted at Handler and at themselves for not realising it sooner. Their attitude towards the weapon changes, offering pain meds and comfort, and Whumpee can’t understand it at all. Weren’t they doing a good job? Didn’t the team see them as a good weapon anymore?

Or, the alternative:

Mechanical Whumpee is deceptively human. Maybe it’s in their program to appear as human as possible.

The team and Caretaker bond well with Whumpee, considering them a very close friend who they’re honoured to fight alongside.

But then Whumpee gets injured during a fight, or perhaps catches a virus, and the team are in shock because they were never a human in the first place.

Whumpee doesn’t understand why everyone is mad. They don’t understand why anyone feels anything, emotions are so unfamiliar to them that they can’t comprehend that the team sees them as less of a companion now that their mechanical innards are revealed.

Or, they know why. And that’s why they hid it. Maybe Whumpee was something human before this, before they’d been repaired and slowly replaced until nothing original remained. And they’d been nothing but ashamed of that.

No matter what, the team aren’t sure they can trust Whumpee anymore. Not after something so major had been kept hidden.
