Using gun but not to kill
Using gun but without shooting it. It's a intimidating factor and a possibility. In extreme case it can be shot to a non vital part,
But what's more fun is:
Punch to the jaw while holding the gun: classic trail of blood down the forehead.
Shoving the gun in whumpee's mouth: what's a better way to silence a talkative whumpee.
Guiding whumpee's face up with it: To see what's deep rooted in thier eyes, Fear or defiance?
Pressing it into their back: Or their side, while whumpee is unaware of what they are going to get into. The bruising pressure against their bone, guiding them.
Choking them with it
Hitting the wrist with it: perhaps to make whumpee drop thier own weapon
And one different trope that those above,
Keeping it trained on someone Whumpee cares about: can whumpee call the bluff? Will whumper actually go to the lengths and shoot? Kill? Or hurt "loves one" ? Should they lunge for whumper's gun?
So many possibilities
Feel free to add on <3
blorbo sickfic that turns into a possession fic halfway through
what does this meannnn
well you see,
Love all the things that can cause somebody to shake. Like, almost anything can. Dehydration, overexertion, stress, fear, sleep deprivation, nausea, medication, pain, etc. etc. etc… “the human body just produces mucus for anything,” sure, but the human body also seems to love shaking like a leaf for anything. Sometimes for literally nothing. And unlike mucus it can’t even pretend to be helpful LOL
Pick one to subject your blorbo to and pass it on
Hurt with no comfort
Love and care they believe they don't deserve
Flashbacks or reliving the Trauma™
One good day where absolutely nothing bad happens
Stabbed and bleeding out somewhere remote
Their strained "I'm fine" is believed by their team
A mug of hot cocoa and the warmest, coziest blankets
Suddenly coughing up blood
A hug
whump is fun because you see a character and are like “i love you so much that i want to see you sobbing and covered in blood. i need you dying in a hospital bed. i need you cold, wet, and miserable. i love you and want you to suffer unimaginable horrors. then you can have a kiss on the head as a treat”
Low-key (high key) love the moment where one character is really hurt, and the other one is just panicking like "Tell me what to do, what do I do now, tell me what to do!"
Yess especially when the injured one is losing consciousness or slowly bleeding out.. hence the other getting more and more frantic🌝
more characters with psychic powers who get migraines and seizures after they use them. i wanna see someone kill a bunch of ppl with their mind and then lay in a dark room vomiting for two days
keeping whump semi-realistic -- blood loss
So, I think most people know that if a person actually passes out from blood loss, they're pretty much fucked. BUT the trope of revealing a bleeding wound and then collapsing is super fucking fun.
So I was thinking about ways to keep that trope in without totally sacrificing any degree of realism -- especially if your characters are far from medical treatment and/or don't have modern tech or magic to help them out.
I also think it's fun if the team / caretaker panics because whumpee passed out, assuming they're much closer to death than they already are. Maybe they find whumpee passed out, covered in blood, and assume the worst, only to be hit with an intense wave of relief when they discover whumpee's still breathing (albeit barely).
So, here's a list of reasons for your injured whumpee to pass out that aren't strictly blood loss. (Of course, blood loss absolutely takes a toll on the body and is definitely a compounding factor leading up to the collapse.)
Adrenaline crash. Whumpee is finally out of battle and they're just fucking exhausted. They realize they're finally safe and they just crumple.
Exhaustion. Maybe whumpee has been running or walking for miles, trying to find safety. Their wound has been slowly bleeding the whole time. Eventually, they just can't keep going, and their legs give out. They promise themself they'll only rest for a moment or two, but then their eyes are closing and sleep takes them.
Sight of blood / panic. Whumpee's seen blood before, sure. But not that much. They didn't even know a person could have that much blood. Where the fuck is it even coming from? Oh. Shit. Me. Alternatively, whumpee has been pretty sheltered up to this point, and this is their first time in combat. They've never seen this much death and blood and gore.
Illness. Maybe whumpee's wounds are infected. Maybe they were already sick but had to fight anyways (or maybe they lied to the rest of the team about their health in order to be allowed to fight). The stress of combat plus the injury is too much for their already weakened body.
Poison. Maybe the blade that stabbed them was coated in something nasty. Makes for a fun reveal when the team/caretaker has treated the wound but whumpee is only getting worse. Also provides a fun sense of urgency if whumpee knows they've been poisoned, and needs to make it to the one person they trust / know can treat it. (Do they make it to the door and collapse in caretaker's arms? Do they collapse on the way? Do they not even make it out of their own room?) (This one is particularly good for assassinations. "I'm not sure which will kill you first: The blood loss or the poison. Unfortunately, I can't stick around to find out.")
Drugs. Maybe whumpee is being hunted for some reason. Someone wants them, and doesn't want them able to fight back. So they've been drugged, tranquilized so they're easy to capture. Maybe they black out and wake up neatly bandaged, flooded with relief, only to realize they're chained to the bed. OR, maybe they've been found by the team, but they're resisting treatment and have to be drugged for their own good. Are they trying to go out and find their friend/lover? Are they delirious and unable to tell friend from foe? Have they been brainwashed or conditioned to fear their former team?
Now that I got caught up on all the gifs I've been dying to post! I'm gonna make a few posts (or maybe just this post with some reblogs) to get some opinions on Whump March Madness.
In the past, I've always posted one (or two during the first heat) poll a day with the polls set to last for a single day. It seems like sometimes people don't end up seeing the polls until after they're closed. It was suggested that I post all of the polls for a heat in one go, and then keep them open for a week which, the more I think about it, seems like a pretty good option! The only other idea I had was to do an afternoon reblog of each poll. But I wanna get your thoughts!
(also: please reblog for sample size! TIA!)
How should Whump March Madness polls be posted?
Keep having one poll a day, with each poll open for one day
Same as above, but with an extra reblog in the afternoon
Post all of the polls for a heat on the same day and leave them open for a week
A different thing which I will tell you in the comments or a reblog
Whump March Madness
Championship!
drugged
loss of consciousness
Does it still count as whump if the character dies at the end?
No
Yes
being put to sleep
• Sleep can function as mental bondage. If you're asleep and can't be easily woken, you're completely helpless and vulnerable. If you're sufficiently drowsy and out of it, you're still basically helpless, but with the added bonus of potentially being somewhat aware of what's happening.
• The many ways to be forced to sleep -- surgical drugs, chloroform rags, hypnosis, sleeping spells and potions, tranquilizer darts, hidden sedatives in food or drink...
• The onset of sleep can be quick, barely giving you time to react before you're out, or so gradual you won't even realize what's happening until it's too late (and everything in-between).
• Uncertainty -- being put to sleep against your will, not knowing what will happen to you while you're defenseless. Being carried away as you fall asleep, not knowing where you'll be when you wake.
• The fight to stay awake, because it feels like something you should be able to fight, to overcome with enough willpower, but...
• The inevitability of being put to sleep. You might not feel the effects of the drugs or magic right now, you might feel wide awake, but sleep will be coming for you.
• Heavy eyelids fluttering and straining to stay open, drooping and closing all by themselves.
• Confusion and disorientation as the drowsiness sets in.
• Floating in and out of consciousness, perhaps just able to hear people discuss you or feel them handling you.
• Deep hypnotic sleep where your conscious mind is shut down and your subconscious is utterly vulnerable to suggestion.
• Glassy, dazed eyes with nothing behind them -- your eyes might still be open, but you're still fast asleep.
• Sleepwalking, wandering around in a trance, unaware of your surroundings -- or perhaps your sleeping mind is following someone else's commands...
• Memory gaps and not knowing what happened while you were sleeping.
Whump March Madness
Round 16
injury reveal
loss of consciousness
A character held up with one arm draped over another's shoulders but otherwise totally unable to support themself so that their lolling head is leaning against their supporting companion's collarbone and their face is pressed into the side of their neck.
