there's something about facial wounds and scars that really gets me.
you can't hide them. not really. bandages or other coverings reveal just as much or are even more conspicuous than the injury itself sometimes.
the irrevocable change. you won't look the same. small marks or big, slashes, burns, they warp who the victim sees in the mirror. they can't ever forget what happened.
so. much. blood. face and head wounds bleed so much. having to hold someone's jaw or cheek while you mend them??? having to look each other in the eye, see every flinch and grimace... (or not)???
AND THEN the comfort of being accepted with them?? especially if the other person knew the victim before they were injured. being told they're no different than they were before, that they're still loved??? or that they're better than the marks on their skin???
hi i'm mal and i like whump a lot apparently. new to the community but not tumblr. main is @samsfuckasswig. this will be a blog for oc x canon whump posting eventually!
this blog will be 18+. plenty of heavy topics will be discussed here, including mental health struggles and nonconsent - be forewarned. dead dove.
} dni: i pretty much don't care who follows me honestly, i have no room to judge others and will just block as needed. all i ask is don't be a racist or a queerphobe or a zionist or a minor.
} fav tropes: so much hurt/recovery comfort, emo/psychological whump, mindbreak, guilt, weak whumpees in general, coercion, drugging/intox, some physical whump, intimate whump, happy endings, bad endings, some familial trauma, sensory stuff, very protective caretakers, reluctant caretakers who don't really know what they're doing, whumper turned caretaker
} i have ocs, i'll attach info under the cut. feel free to ask about them! i also really enjoy self insert isekai scenarios.
disclaimer: don't bring pro/anti/com/dark drama to this blog. censorship is bad, full stop. curate your own online experiences and use the block button, or go touch some grass. kthxloveyoubye!

ledi, aasimar/angel, functionally immortal and she's been around a while. daughter and former paladin of her father, helm. rendered blind in a moment of unchecked pride, and conceals her shame behind the smaller wings on the sides of her head (her halo). cool, detached, protects but does not actually care.
holly, human, mid twenties. sometimes has facial scars or short hair of some variety depending on the scenario/fandom. always has some grey strands in her hair from stress. in fantasy stories she's a bit heroic, fighting with sword and shield. kind-hearted, tries to be optimistic, supportive to a fault, damaged goods.
