#implied character suicidality

[martyr-inthedark]

Make your Whumpee tired.

Whumpees that have been deprived of sleep by Whumper, so much so that they don't remember how to walk in a straight line and can't figure out whether the recent appearance of little black bugs in their cell are real or a hallucination.

Whumpees that can't get a full night's rest. They doze off, only to be jolted awake by their own anxiety of not knowing when Whumper would come back. Perhaps they are awakened by phlegm-coated coughs induced by their illness. They are awakened by nightmares, or by Caregiver who is worried they may succumb to hypothermia, or by a thunderstorm, or the rough blanket scratching their open wounds, or so on.

Whumpees who pull all nighters to protect their friends or lovers.

Whumpees whose eyes burn when they finally can close their eyes. Whumpees whose muscles twitch, who can't stop yawning no matter how hard they try to stifle it. Whumpees with dark, glassy eyes. Whumpees who are slow to react or have a hard time keeping up with the conversation. Whumpees with throbbing headaches. Whumpees with brain fog and memory loss.

Whumpees who have been on the run and have over exhausted their bodies. Their muscles and joints continue to scream long after its over. Whumpees with extensive blood loss. Whumpees who are malnourished.

Whumpees whose survivor's guilt keeps them awake, wondering what they might have done differently, whether it was all their fault, or why they were the ones to live.

Whumpees whose bodies are in chronic pain or illness and who have to hide it, causing muscle and mental fatigue. They keep going with a smile until they collapse or pass out.

Whumpees who break down in tears, begging to be left alone so they can rest. Whumpees who sob when they are told that the bed in front of them is theirs to use whenever they want.

i think that ghost full on fall apart after soap dies even if price and gaz were still there. they’re not soap, nobody could ever fill the void the Scot made in him.

so he turns to drugs, at first just weed since soap smoked it but when it’s not enough he goes further. falls into using hallucinogens so he can see soap again and price of course looks it over; he can’t lose another one of his best soldiers because of silly weed (ghost never gives away that he’d ‘grown out’ of weed) and as long as the man wasn’t high on their missions it would be fine.

until it wasn’t.

luckily — or maybe unluckily, he doesn’t know — he’s not high when he gets shot in the thigh, ducking into the nearest as pain radiates through him from the entry wound. he doesn’t scramble as fast as he probably should to tie a tourniquet and notify the medics through the comms.

red stains his tactical pants alarmingly fast and he knows it’s hit the artery, a part of him happy for it. maybe he’ll get to see soap properly again even if he doesn’t fully believe in an afterlife.

Anyways. Arcane season 1 was a solid 7/10 couldve used 4 eps per act instead to really tell the story more but the writers were really dedicated to the rule of 3s.

Season 2 is like. 4/10 tho. WAY too dedicated to the rule of 3s. Added a bunch of side characters that did nothing n took up way too much time. Tried to dive into all the characters stories all at once while also changing the story itself to not focus on the class disparity and instead just swept that shit under the rug :/

Also used up so much time for music videos that wasted time cause they just ended up showing the situations even better after anyways.

Also I liked the episode with ekko n powder but good god. You wasted an entire episode. On an au. When you were already running out of time.

I know they said they're doing other shows after this but that's not really an excuse to completely change characters personalities and butcher a bunch of the storylines :/
