Whump? Never Heard About That..

she/her • early twenties Whump with focus on caretaking Hurt/comfort prompts

When the character is so dizzy they have to hold on to something to keep standing.

When the character grips hard, tightening all their muscles, in the hope that it will keep them from fainting.

When the character slowly lowers themselves against the thing they where holding onto because they can't keep themselves upright anymore.

When they sit down leaning heavily against the thing, panting, because even sitting is too much.

very attractive things you should make your caretaker do

Leaning down so that they can hear whumpee properly. (Works best with a good size/height difference.)

When they watch whumpee from across a room, especially at a party where they’re obviously not listening to the people talking to them.

They’re walking a little in front of whumpee and when they realise, they immediately slow down so whumpee is walking next to them.

Pulling whumpee onto their lap when there’s no more space on the couch.

When they’re laughing with whumpee but their gaze keeps flickering to whumpee’s lips.

That moment when someone becomes even slightly threatening to whumpee and they step in front of them protectively.

They’re constantly studying whumpee for any signs of discomfort or pain. Always looking at their face or hands…

Gently guiding whumpee out of the way by placing their hands on whumpee’s waist.

Just hugs…long hugs, especially if whumpee falls asleep mid-hug, when they feel so safe and so comfortable.

Letting whumpee play with a piece of their clothing or their hands or even their hair.

When whumpee initiates any form of intimacy and caretaker’s breath hitches because oh god…it’s happening.

being in the whump community is genuinely so funny bc someone will unironically say some shit like “i’ve really been into head injuries lately”

This is me I’m afraid

Shout out to character having a healed up wound but it still hurts when they move that bodypart maybe even years later. Hell yeah let out a little wince when you stretch your arm out to get that thing from the shelf.

[oracleofwhumpee]

The subtle signs of hidden trauma. Trembling hands. Hitched, stuttered breaths. A blink-and-you'll-miss-it flinch. Quick, fleeting signs, so easy to miss, but if they're noticed....

[whump-im-serious]

Reminiscing on the four years I spent studying for my degree in comparative literature, it’s so sweet to remember the times I came across certain scenes or plotlines in classical literature that gave me whumperflies all of a sudden.

Reading through a researcher’s lens never ever stopped me from being kinky. Quote me on this.

When a powerful, seemingly untouchable, character is revealed to have ptsd, I gain a little more hope for humanity

[theguiltywriter]

I need more living weapons having crazy reflexes. catching shit, adjusting, deflecting, etc without flinching or even seeming to process what is going on. and like, in mundane ways specifically ! catching someone from falling or slipping, deflecting things, etc.

idk I've just been watching a lot of compilations of people having good or weird reflexes and I need to see / hear about this more with living weapons because they probably would have really excellent, if not superhuman, reflexes.

I think there's a lot you can do with it too. is the living weapon surprised ? are they embarrassed ? etc

Whumpy choice time!

Which is better - the slow and seemingly never-ending dull throb and pierce of a deep wound being stitched, eventually becoming almost repetitive enough that the pain fades into the background, only for it to remain long after it's finished --

Or the quick and sudden but near excruciating pain of a cauterization, unable to prepare for even if it comes with a warning, so hot and sharp it takes the breath away and is almost as biting as the wound itself was...

[allthewhumpygoodness]

Well, now we can do polls and this post came back around so....

Stitches or cauterization?

In the aftermath, scarred and “broken”, whumpee refuses to feel shame. They are who they are and their body is what it is. It is what survived and paid the price for doing so.

[whump-im-serious]

Stoic whumpee who never thinks about themselves to the point that when they regain consciousness after being wounded and see caretaker next to them the first thing they say is “Why are you still here?” / “It’s too dangerous” / “You shouldn’t be here”. The only thing that they’re afraid of is caretaker being under threat.

Especially good when whumpee and caretaker are lovers. And when whumpee is wounded so badly that even the thought of parting with them now is ridiculous to caretaker, no matter how dangerous it is for them to stay.

[whump-im-serious]

Nothing like caretaker who learns that whumpee is back and that they’re hurt and runs through the halls, across the yard, down the stairs, while everyone around is watching. They storm into the room, and oh that little pause before they walk up to the bed more slowly and shyly.

Whumpee was not expecting caretaker to be this worried about them and they raise their head in surprise, while somebody else is already tending to their injuries.

Whump Prompt #1770

Nothing better than that End Of Story aesthetic where the whumpee has their arm in a sling, their jacket hanging over their shoulders, and their face bruised... but they're smiling because it's finally over.

Maybe someone claps them on their bad shoulder, to which they wince but maintain their smile because it's over, it's finally over.

[fuckyeahhc]

Sure we all love it when caretaker asks "are you okay" and stoic whumpee goes "I'm fine" when clearly not. But what if whumpee is so out of it that they just shake their head and lean on caretaker's chest.

[whump-im-serious]

I love a stoic whumpee who doesn’t lie or pretend to be fine. It shows their respect for caretaker and how much they trust them.

Physically hurt-emotionally stable character with physically stable-emotionally hurt character forming a complicated mutual caretaking relationship

[whump-im-serious]

Yes!!! And the moment when the physically hurt character realizes that their caretaker might need comforting more than they do.
