Hey! Could I get some prompts about otp having a nice day out when Person A starts feeling light-headed and clutches at Person B's shoulder before fainting? Maybe some symptoms before like feeling thirsty or too hot?
Thanks 😊
I’ll do my best! I’ve designated them with sickie and caretaker roles, just to keep things less confusing, but obviously Person B doesn’t have to be a caretaker if you use any of these prompts.
Sickie
“Can we stop for a minute?”
“It feels a lot warmer than it was supposed to be today…”
“Ugh, god. I’m sweating through my shirt.”
“You’re really not hot?”
“Whoa…I just got really lightheaded.”
“I need to sit down.”
“Did you bring any water with you? I left mine in the car…”
“I feel like I’m swaying…”
Caretaker
“Are you okay? You don’t look so good.”
“Do you wanna find somewhere to sit?”
“Holy shit, you’re sweating buckets.”
“Could you stop leaning on me? You’re not the only one suffering from this heat.”
“Stay here, I’ll get you some water.”
“Whoa, please don’t pass out on me.”
“I told you to bring your water bottle. Here, you can have some of mine.”
“Just hold onto me. Steady yourself.”
Both
“I think I’m gonna pass out.” “You’re so dramatic.” “I’m not joking.”
“We can go inside to escape the heat?” “I don’t think I’m gonna make it to the door.”
“I feel like I’m gonna faint.” “That’s normal at first. Your body just isn’t used to the exercise. You’ll get better.” “No…something’s wrong.”
“Holy crap…I’ve never seen you chug anything like that before.” “Yeah and somehow I’m still thirsty.”
“Catch me.” “What? A?!”
“B…?” “It’s okay. I’ve got you. You passed out.”
“Why didn’t you tell me you weren’t feeling well?” “I didn’t wanna complain…” “A, if you feel like you’re going to pass out onto the concrete, you have permission to complain.”

There’s something about a whumpee just sitting down. Not fainting, necessarily. Maybe they’re just about to faint, and they quietly just kneel on the ground at a time and place that doesn’t make sense. They don’t even have the capacity or willingness to articulate why they need to abruptly stop and sit. Maybe they’re catatonic while the others look at them.
Maybe a caretaker can see the dull, vacant look in their eyes and immediately senses that something is seriously wrong. Maybe the fainting comes just a few moments later.

love love love when already injured characters are caught by their teammates as they slump forward. When their words blur together into an incompressible mess. When they press a hand against their injury to no avail. The blood is seeping through, weaving down their wrist. "Let...go." Suddenly going pale, falling in and out of consciousness. "I'm-- I'm fine."
They're not.

Sick characters fainting at work will always get me- the way they brush everyone else off who tries to get them to sit down, only for their knees to buckle, eyes rolling back as everyone rushes to their side.
"Whoa, Whumpee? Easy, easy..."
Limbs growing heavy, head lolling. Other characters trying to wake them up by lightly tapping their cheek, only to be met with nothing, Whumpee's face slack in unconsciousness.

Caretaker Words
“Stop pushing this off. Something’s really wrong. Trust me.”
“Don’t look at it. What did I just say?”
“You have a fever so I’m going to pretend you did not just say that to me.”
“I need you to stop moving. I know. I’m sorry. But I can’t stitch this up if you keep pulling away.”
“Can you walk?”
“That was a really hard hit. Maybe you should just lay there for a while.”
“You look terrible. How terrible? Terrible enough for them to call me.”
“I’ve got you. You’re okay. It was just a fever dream.”
“It’s not that deep. I’m wrapping it up…ohhh my God…yeah, no, it’s fine. Not that bad.”
“Oh you’re fine? Then why are you slowly tilting.”

Whumpee who's been barely hanging in there by a thread asking whoever's closest for permission to finally pass out now that it's over

Prompt:
Damian isn’t happy about father’s rule not to hurt the gaggle of false kids he has acquired. How is he supposed to prove to him that he is the only one worthy of the title of heir now?
But fine. Most of them are stupid enough they’ll end up dead sooner or later. Damian just has to play the long game. Establish himself as the only constant.
But then father’s wayward son, Todd, comes home… and it’s so much worse than Damian expected.
He remembers this man. Remembers him from hushed whispers in the League, from mother’s creased eyebrow, and training halls drenched with blood.
And he’ll take one look at Damian and know. Know that he’s a threat to his position.
And the worst thing: Damian isn’t allowed to defend himself.

Give me Caretaker bridal carrying a weak Whumpee who is desperately trying to stay conscious…Whumpees arms are around Caretakers neck and their head is bobbing up and down against Caretakers chest.
And then suddenly, all at once, Caretaker notices Whumpee somehow feels heavier. Caretaker looks down at Whumpee just as Whumpee’s arms fall limp and their head flops backwards. And Caretaker has to drop to the ground both out of shock and panic as well as to check that their precious cargo is still breathing and to recollect Whumpees deadweight limbs to their chest before they stand back up

DISCLAIMER: I HAVE NO CLUE IF THIS IS MEDICALLY ACCURATE
Something that whump writers don’t consider:
IVs feel cold. Can you imagine a room temperature liquid going directly into the bloodstream of someone who’s 97-104 degrees? It’s hellish. You can’t get warm no matter how much external heat you receive.
Imagine a delirious whumpee whimpering and clawing at an IV while being restrained and reassured by Caretaker.
“No no no, that stays in”
“Hey, hey. I know it hurts, but it’ll help you feel better”
Maybe the whumpee’s hallucinating, thinking that they’re being tortured. When Caretaker’s words fail to get through, they have to use gentle touches and singing. Or, if you want to be mean, you can have the Caretaker being forced to restrain Whumpee to prevent them from hurting themselves until they run out of energy and pass out.

That little look a character gives right before they collapse.
Having been slowly getting more and more unfocused, people talking around them but them not noticing. How could they notice when it was taking all their energy just to stay upright?
The world getting more and more hazy. Their breaths becoming rougher and more labored, struggling harder every time they inhale.
Someone calls their name and their head jolts up. They make eye contact for just a moment. Their gaze tells it all.
Sweaty faced, glassy eyed, lips slightly apart in an attempt to please breathe. The lost, helpless look they give betrays every weakness, every struggle going on inside them. Their eyes keen towards whoever they make eye contact with, begging to be saved.
And then they faint.

Prompts For When You Need A Whumpee To Fall Like A Sack Of Bricks
For when a slow and steady loss of consciousness doesn't quite cut it (but that's still good, don't get me wrong).
whumpee's still running on adrenaline when they bump into caretaker, nothing but smiles until they catch onto caretaker's horrified expression. they follow their gaze until they see the familiar stain of blood against their shirt. their shock drains the adrenaline from them, and before caretaker's even able to take a step forward their knees have buckled.
a sudden wound — a gunshot, a stabbing — and the pain lancing through them white-hot and agonizing. they're still processing what's happened to them, gaping like a fish out of water when they feel the ground slam into the side of their head. they're not sure when they fell, but every pulse pours out more red and reminds them over and over of why.
a caretaker running themselves ragged with just how many people are hurt or in need of them, unable to take a moment's rest for themselves. their vision starts to swim when they stand up but they ignore it, because it's not that bad yet and others have it worse. they're doing an excellent job pushing through, until they're suddenly not. their vision wavers a little stronger this time, and then into black, barely able to get out a surprised "oh" before they're on the ground.
bending down to grab something and not hearing the approach of someone from behind them. one moment, they're sifting through papers, a drawer, a cabinet — the next, there's a burst of horrible pain at the back of their skull and a deep, sudden darkness.
trying to climb out of bed after a broken fever — common sense tells them to stay in bed but they want a bath so badly. their body trembles the moment they move to stand, and they're barely upright for more than a few seconds before their weakened legs fold and they collapse in a pile of exhausted, aching limbs.
doing nothing, thinking of nothing until there's a bright surge of light and heat, white bleeding into black, so abrupt that it's not until they wake again that they even comprehend that anything happened to them.

“What just happened?”
“I was gonna ask you. Do you feel okay?
“I…don’t know? I feel weird. Tingly.”
“Yeah I bet. Hey, no, don’t try to move. Not yet. Give it a second.”
“What?”
“Someone’s coming to check you out.”
“Like an ambulance? Why?”
“Because when someone goes from fine to unconscious in .3 seconds it makes people feel a bit uncomfortable.”
“Am I unconscious?”
“Well not now. But yeah, a few seconds ago.”
“I’m sorry. I don’t understand what’s…gah. My head is banging.”
“You and the wall had a quick love connection on your way down. You made an impression…literally.”
“I don’t feel so good.”
“I figured that one out on my own.”
“No I mean I’m gonna puke.”
“HOLY sh-.”
“I’m sorry…oh my God I’m sorry I’m so sorry.”
“It’s fine. Take it easy. You’re gonna be alright.”
“Please don’t leave.”
“I’m not leaving. I’m here.”

Hi how are you I'd like to request a writing piece in which whumpee passes out right in front of caretaker plzzz
Team Leader's speaking, but Caretaker's eyes are focused on Whumpee instead- the way they're stood, shifting uncomfortably on their feet, complexion far paler than it ought to be. They aren't doing well. It's painfully obvious.
Caretaker should have said something sooner. They should have pulled Team Leader aside before this whole meeting started, before the whole team was gathered as an audience for Whumpee's slow descent in health. They should have-
Whumpee shifts on their feet again, except this time a shaking hand comes up to swipe at the perspiration gathering on their forehead. Somehow, they've grown even paler in the last few seconds. They blink quickly, evidently trying to shake the uneasy sensation within them, but it doesn't appear to do much at all.
"Whumpee, are you listening?" Team Leader's voice suddenly grows sterner, their explanation interrupted.
Whumpee blinks again. Sniffs. Clears their throat. "I- yes... sorry, Team Leader."
"Thank you. Now, as I was saying..."
Caretaker directs a sympathetic glance towards Whumpee, hoping perhaps they'll finally own up to their own indisposition and excuse themselves. Or at least understand that somebody out there is looking out for them, and knows they're not feeling great.
Whumpee doesn't acknowledge the look, though. In fact, they're not acknowledging anything anymore. A slight glaze has entered their eyes, and they feebly reach out towards a nearby surface for support. Nobody notices except Caretaker. Nobody's even looking at them other than Caretaker.
When Whumpee takes a deep breath, blinking quickly for the third or fourth time, it doesn't take a genius to know what's about to happen. Caretaker at last moves from their position, hurrying forward just as Whumpee's eyes roll back in their head and everything goes limp. The exclamations of concern and shock from the others barely even register to them as they lower whumpee to the ground, already fumbling to undo the tightly buttoned collar soaked through with sweat.
"It's alright, Whumpee. It's okay. You're alright."
From somewhere in the background, Team Leader is swearing. "Shit. I had no idea. I didn't- I didn't think-"
Caretaker can't help the way their brow furrows with frustration as they gently roll Whumpee onto their side.
Of course. Nobody ever thinks when it comes to Whumpee.
