"I got you out of that place, and I can put you back in."
that incoherent babbling stage of pleading when the pain is too much but they just have to keep asking for it to stop or they aren't even aware that what they're saying isn't words so all that's coming out is half-words and mumbles and gasps >>>>>
give it up for voice breaks everyone. round of applause for shaky whimpers, pained cries, distressed whining, keening in the back of the throat, that moment when a character tries so hard to keep talking but their voice cracks into a fluttery, weak little plea for help
a friendly reminder that even a light fever, a few hours of missed meals, or even a little bit of dehydration can become a huge problem with the right kind of physical activity. if you want to make your kind-of-sick whumpee pass out from exhaustion, have them carry heavy things for a bit. like groceries, or laundry, or cleaning that requires them to move through the house a lot. you don't need a serious problem to make serious symptoms :)
when they survive the first blow and you get to watch them realize whats about to happen to them *again*
I love it when Whumpee is leaning on things. They're dizzy, nauseous, in too much pain to stand, or just plain tired, and they can't get by without some kind of support.
Leaning on cabinets and against walls in people's houses. Propping their head up with their hands at the dining table. Steadying themself against a banister on the stairs. Holding on to the post of the traffic light for dear life while they wait to cross the road because if they stand still unsupported they will fall to the ground.
It's such a small display of I am not feeling good, but once another character notices it becomes so obvious. This person is weak and vulnerable. Either I can help them, or I can hurt them further. It's not like they're in any position to stop me.
“Take It Easy” Caretaker Vibes 🫂
1. “You’re done. You hear me? You did enough.”
2. “Hey—stop. You don’t have to prove anything right now.”
3. “Breathe. Just… breathe, okay? That’s all you need to do.”
4. “You’re shaking. Sit down before you fall down.”
5. “Don’t make me hold you down just to make you rest.”
6. “You don’t have to keep fighting, kid. It’s over.”
7. “Look at me. You’re safe. That’s it—just stay here.”
8. “You’re allowed to fall apart now.”
9. “Hey, hero—nobody’s watching. You can stop pretending you’re fine.”
10. “I know you want to move. I’m telling you—don’t. Let your body calm down.”
11. “You’ve been through hell. Let it process, go slow.”
12. “If you stand up again, I swear I’ll knock you back down myself.” (half-joking, half-terrified)
13. “You don’t have to burn yourself out to prove you’re still alive.”
14. “You’re not weak. You’re wrecked. There’s a difference.”
15. “Just let me carry it for a minute, yeah?”
16. “I’ve got you. That’s not negotiable.”
17. “It’s over. You survived. Just breathe... That’s the only thing you need to do now.”
18. “You’re bleeding through the tough act, sweetheart.”
19. “You don’t have to talk. Just stay breathe.”
20. “Rest. That’s an order.”
happy 4th of July throw a British whumpee in the harbor or whatever

writing is just sitting in front of a computer and making up problems for imaginary people while ignoring your own. fun and casual hobby.
BIG fan of when a character’s dialogue is a massive understatement on how they’re doing. They’re too out-of-it or in too much pain to actually communicate it coherently, so they end up saying the most general obvious statement of all time and worry everyone more.
Sky-high, obvious fever and all they can say is “I don’t think I feel good.” Extremely painful, apparent injury and what they say is just “it hurts.” No specifics—they can’t think clearly enough for that.
Tie-Breaker Round!
There was a tie for the theme of our seventh anthology, so it's time for a tie-breaker!
The choices are:
Environmental whump (examples: extreme weather, hypo and hyperthermia, cave ins, building collapses, natural disasters, etc.)
Water (examples: drowning, dehydration, lost at sea, waterboarding, sea monsters, mer people, etc.)
Yes, there could be some overlap between the two choices, but they are distinct enough to be separate themes So choose wisely!
Vote for your favorite theme!
Environmental Whump
Water
Giving cold juice to a feverish character who's blood sugar tanked when they fainted 👏👏👏👏
When the whumpee is so concussed/ drugged/ feverish/ suffering from serious blood loss that they keep zoning out.
Their mind wanders away, or their train of thoughts keeps derailing or jumping all over, or concentrating is very hard, or they almost fall asleep/ pass out every few minutes or so, or they kind of just freeze and stare into the void.
Friends and/ or caretakers keep having to wake them up or try to get them to focus.
They get worried over whumpee being unable to hold a normal conversation, or unable to fill a role or do something important expected of them. They need the whumpee awake just a little longer, perhaps even to save their live.
They keep telling whumpee: "Are you with me?" or "Whumpee, can you hear me?" or "Stay with me, whumpee." or "Whumpee, please, you have to focus!"
Maybe caretakers and or friends are resigned to the possibility whumpee is not lucid enough for now and cannot help. Or resigned to try again later when the fever gets better, or the blood volume gets restored, or the drugs wear off.
Maybe whumpee is fully aware of how much they keep zoning out. They can feel guilty about it, or try harder in vain, or get very confused or worried. They can be in denial about it or unhappy about not being allowed to rest/ pass out
Well, well, well, what have we here~
During torture, Whumpee starts feeling like they're about to die. There's just so much blood, and everything hurts, and they're dizzy and weak, and Whumper doesn't look like they're going to stop.
"I-I'm going to die... I don't want to die. Please don't kill me, you're going to kill me..."
Whumper only hushes them with another line of fire across their body, and holds closer their trembling form, their expression intense. — "Not yet. You'll stay alive for me. I know you will."
Whumpees when they’re right in j the verge of passing out. Like, barely coherent, blinking but not really seeing anything, not aware of anything around them. Leaning in to touch because they can’t think far enough to realize it’s anything besides comfort. Groaning softly whenever they have to move. Head pounding, and everything around them spinning.
