Only vaguely on topic, but when a whumpee's so disoriented - maybe waking up from being knocked out, maybe from fear or pain or shock or illness - that they barely remember who they are or where they are or what happened to them. When their thoughts spin in circles, struggling to process even basic information. And that nagging sense that they really don't *want* to remember, that when they snap out of it, there's something *bad* waiting for them...

I’m always happy to see this happen :)

X is a former villain who joined the good guys' side a while ago. The head villain captures the rest of the team and plans to torture them while disguised as X, convincing them their friend betrayed them and was lying all along. The real X is trapped somewhere knowing this is happening and helpless to stop it, convinced that they'll never be forgiven even if their friends escape. The team leader looks the villain in the eye as they finish their gloating monologue. "You're not X. Where are they?"

So good

A desperate, terrified whumpee pleading with the whumper not to hurt them - but it turns out they're not afraid for their *own* safety. If they're in enough danger, their powers will go out of control (or, the thing sharing their body will take over and try to protect them.) They don't want to hurt anyone else, but they can only hold it back for so long... whumper, of course, finds this out the hard way.

You always send me such good whump <3

Someone in the group has been replaced. Maybe by a clone, a shapeshifter, being infected by an alien parasite, possessed by a demon... someone can't be trusted, and nobody knows who it is. No one is safe. Bonus points: it's one of the possession options and the original person is helplessly trapped in their own mind. Alternative bonus points: there isn't really an impostor among them (had to say it) but the team gradually starts to turn on each other anyway...

Ah yes, the power of suggestion

Character slowly realising that they’re a ghost. Bonus points: their friend has to tell them. Alternative bonus points: they realise by seeing their own body, and it looks so vulnerable and fragile like that. Maybe they reach out and try to close its eyes, but their hand just goes through. And why are they thinking of it as ‘it’ and not ‘me’...?

Those moments when their hands go through things always get me

Trudging through a bitter snowstorm, carrying vital supplies to an area cut off by a disaster. Whumpee has to keep going, there are so many people depending on them! But it's so cold, and if they fall, they won't have the strength to stand up again...

I love it when a hero gets whumped!

Looking for wet floor and Hi 200, we only got to play one round together before the lobby closed due to inactivity. I was cyan named SpaceCadet with the cat hat, Hi 200 was black during the game then switched to white, wet floor was brown with teddy bear ears then switched to blue with wet floor sign. I had to go afk for a bit while we were hanging out in the lobby and just after i came back it closed :( also wet floor you were a great impostor, well played trapping me in medbay like that
